FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Targhee IV series features models specifically designed for varying weather conditions; please verify if your specific MPN includes the waterproof membrane designation.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cold water. Never submerge in hot water or place in a dryer.
Does the original fit run wide?
The original fit provides a generous space in the forefoot, which is wider than standard performance hiking shoes, providing room for toes to splay.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the Luftcell insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if preferred.
How does the glue-free construction affect durability?
By using KEEN.FUSION to bond the upper to the sole, the shoe gains a more durable connection that is less prone to delamination compared to traditional glue-based adhesives.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels less supportive after long use
Remove the Luftcell insole, clean it separately with mild soap, and ensure it is fully dry before reinserting.
Difficulty maintaining traction on very wet rock
Ensure the lugs are free of packed mud or debris that can mask the tread pattern.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Keen Targhee IV hiking shoes perform optimally, it is important to follow proper maintenance steps. Since these are crafted with leather components, avoid machine washing. Instead, clean the exterior by removing excess dirt and stains with a stiff brush or a soft cloth, using only mild soap and cold water. Always allow your footwear to air dry naturally in a cool, ventilated area away from direct heat sources or sunlight, which can cause the leather to crack or the fusion bonds to weaken. Check your laces periodically, and while they are made from recycled plastics, replace them if you notice fraying to maintain a secure fit.
