Is the Keds Scout IV Splash waterproof?

No. The coated canvas upper is water- and stain-repellent, so it handles light rain and splashes, but it is not a fully waterproof rubber boot.

How does it compare with a classic rain boot?

It is lighter and looks like a sneaker rather than a tall rubber boot, but it gives up full waterproofing and the taller coverage of a rain boot.

What is the sole and footbed like?

It has a flexible lugged rubber outsole for traction and a Softerra footbed for cushioning underfoot.

How should I clean it?

Spot wash and air dry only. Do not machine wash or tumble dry the coated canvas.

What lining does it have?

A soft plaid twill lining that adds warmth for cooler weather.

Is it good for all-day walking?

It works for commuting and errands, but the cushioning is lighter than a dedicated walking shoe for long days on hard pavement.

Our take on the Keds Scout IV Splash Canvas Women

The Keds Scout IV Splash is a lace-up sneaker boot in coated canvas with a water- and stain-repellent finish. It pairs a soft plaid twill lining and a Softerra footbed with a flexible lugged rubber outsole, so it handles wet pavement and slush without the bulk of a rain boot. It suits people who want a sleeker, sneaker-like alternative to clunky rubber boots for commuting and everyday wear. Against classic rain boots it trades full waterproofing for lighter weight and a more casual look; against plain canvas sneakers it adds weather resistance and a lugged sole.
