All KEEN Utility products use leather from tanneries certified by the Leather Working Group (LWG); which reduces water and energy use.

Review: Light, comfortable, and durable, not waterproof. - Excellent boot shoe. Grips very well. I wear them on smooth concrete surfaces covered in coolant, oil, and transmission fluid. So I might not get the best traction when oils or hydraulic fluids are coating the ground, but the fluids do not appear to be tearing up the soles of these boot shoes. Not only are they holding up to transmission fluid and oil, they are lasting without noticeable wear in the treads. I walk all day on concrete and usually wear through shoes, I am almost surprised to see these shoes standing up well. They are lighter than most boots and very comfortable. I don’t have a wide foot but these wide boot shoes allow me room to spread my toes and keep my feet from cramping all day. My only problem is they aren’t waterproof like leather boots would be. They are warm and water resistant, but if you step in water that only licks the top of the rubber sole it will get slightly damp inside the shoe within 10 sec. I love them though. Comfortable, light, and stylish while fitting a work environment style.
Review: 2nd pair in the cart! - Light, comfy, fairly tough. Not water resistant by any means but quality. I just bought my second pair!
