Our take on the KEEN Men's Targhee II Waterproof Hiking Shoes

The Targhee II is KEEN's long-running men's hiking shoe, built around a waterproof leather and mesh upper, a roomy toe box and a stability-focused midsole. It uses KEEN's own waterproof membrane rather than Gore-Tex, with 4mm multi-directional lugs and an Ortholite footbed. At about 460 g per shoe it is heavier than most modern trail shoes, so it suits hikers who want protection and support over speed. Owners like the out-of-the-box comfort and wide fit; the common complaints are bulk and wet-out in sustained rain.

Questions and answers

Is the Targhee II good for wide feet?
Yes. The roomy toe box is one of its most cited strengths, and it suits men who find narrower hiking shoes pinch.
Is it truly waterproof?
It uses KEEN's own waterproof membrane, not Gore-Tex. It handles mud, puddles and light rain well, but owners report wet-out in long, heavy rain.
How does it compare with the Targhee III?
The III is lighter and has a more modern upper. The II is the heavier, more protective and roomier option, which many longtime owners prefer.
Is it good for backpacking?
It works for moderate loads and day packs thanks to the stable platform, but the weight adds up over multi-day trips.
What is in the box?
One pair of shoes with the Ortholite footbed fitted. Insoles are removable if you use your own.
Does it need breaking in?
Most owners say no. The leather softens quickly, though a short walk before a long hike is sensible.

At Sierra, for $89.99, 47% under what the other stores charge, as of our latest check.
