Our take on the Keen Men's Targhee II Waterproof Mid

The Keen Targhee II Waterproof Mid is a leather-and-mesh hiking boot with a Keen.Dry waterproof membrane, a rubber lugged outsole and a roomy toe box. It is a long-running design known for out-of-the-box comfort and stability on day hikes and light backpacking. It is heavier and stiffer than trail shoes, and the waterproof liner runs warm in summer.

Questions and answers

Is the Targhee II Waterproof Mid worth it?
For hikers who want a roomy, dry, supportive boot for day hikes and light loads, yes. If you hike fast or mostly on smooth trails, a lighter shoe will suit you better.
How does it compare with the Targhee III?
The Targhee III is the newer version, with a slightly updated upper and outsole. The II remains a solid pick if you find it cheaper and prefer its proven fit.
Is it truly waterproof?
Yes, it uses Keen's Keen.Dry membrane, and owners report dry feet in rain and wet grass. Water can still enter over the collar in deep puddles or stream crossings.
How does the sizing run?
It runs true to length but roomy in the toe box, and it comes in medium and wide widths. Try your normal size first, especially if you wear thin socks.
What is in the box?
One pair of boots with the factory laces; insoles are included. No extra laces or care kit come standard.
When is it cheapest?
Prices tend to drop during end-of-season clearance and around major sales events. Watch the price history before buying if you are not in a hurry.
