I’ve found the hiking boots that will be coming with me on trails throughout the summer, and their polarizing looks aren’t even a deal breaker

The Keen Targhee Apex Mid hiking boots describe themselves as comfortable right out of the box, and that’s no lie. They’re lighter than my usual hiking boots, but still offer good support even through trickier terrain.

The multi-directional lugs on the soles of the shoes deliver excellent grip, even in wet conditions, and they’re waterproof, so they're good-to-go for all weather. But as with many shoes from Keen, you’re either going to love or hate the design, and the wide fit may be a little roomy for some wearers, although it ensures a spacious toe box.
