I tested Keen’s new trail shoes — and they’re bouncy, breathable, and beyond comfortable

The keen seek trail shoes in brown, black, and beige photographed against the blue tom's guide background.

Keen continuously makes some super comfortable footwear, and the Seek, its new trail shoes, are no different. With Keen’s classic wide toe box and cushioned, energetic sole, I would happily wear these trail shoes for hours (and I have!).

But is supreme comfort enough to make the Keen Seek some of the best running shoes on the market? Well, it’s tricky because there’s no one “best” running shoe. Everyone has a different anatomy that requires different cushioning, height, and structure. Running shoes and hiking shoes are so personal. While I wouldn’t wear the Keen Seek for running again, I would definitely wear them for hiking… so the answer is both yes and no.
