Agreed. When I was a lot younger, I used to to 12 hour non-union carpenter/electrician gigs in theaters wearing keens. Loading trucks, climbing ladders, building giant sets, all of it. I still have that original pair, too, for yard work.

I’ve never had a pair of Keens, but always hear good things. Any particular style or model you’d recommend?

The shoes I was talking about in my comment are called Newports.

Vista is a great boot for warehouse type work. The red hook is great for warehouse where you might get wet. If keen comes out with a soft toe vista low I’d buy that for an around town summer shoe.

Hoping to get a pair of Atlanta cooler before next summer.
