Product Information
Full details
Designed for adult females seeking stable and supportive footwear for day-long adventures, the KEEN Jasper Zionic Hiking Shoes offer upgraded traction and contoured support for comfortable miles. A potential caveat is their low-top design, which may offer less ankle support than traditional hiking boots.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for rugged, off-trail hiking?
While they offer good traction, their low-top design provides limited ankle support. They are best suited for moderate trails and day hikes rather than highly technical or off-trail excursions where ankle stability is critical.
How do I activate or maintain the odor control feature?
The odor control is a natural, built-in feature. To maintain its effectiveness, ensure the shoes are aired out regularly after use and allowed to dry completely.
Can I replace the insole with my own orthotics?
Yes, the resilient foam insole can typically be removed to accommodate custom orthotics or other insoles, provided they are of a similar profile.
What does 'environmentally preferred leather' mean?
It means the leather is sourced from tanneries that are certified by the Leather Working Group (LWG) for their commitment to cleaner water practices and reduced environmental impact during the tanning process.
How should I store these shoes when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally in a well-ventilated area. Avoid storing them in plastic bags or sealed containers, which can trap moisture.
What is the expected lifespan of the traction on the outsole?
The lifespan of the traction depends on usage intensity, terrain, and maintenance. Regular cleaning and avoiding excessive wear on abrasive surfaces will help prolong the effectiveness of the 4mm multi-directional lugs.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the lacing. For a tighter fit, pull laces more firmly. For a looser fit, slacken the laces. Ensure the knot is secure.
Reduced traction on wet surfaces.
Ensure the outsole is clean. Mud or debris can significantly reduce grip. Clean the lugs thoroughly.
Foot fatigue after extended use.
Ensure the shoes are laced appropriately for arch support. Consider using aftermarket insoles if additional support is needed, though the integrated support is designed for comfort.
Leather appears dry or scuffed.
Apply a small amount of leather conditioner specifically designed for footwear. Test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid over-conditioning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These shoes require no specific setup beyond lacing them to your preferred fit. Ensure the laces are tied securely before each use.
Compatibility: The KEEN Jasper Zionic Hiking Shoes are designed for adult female footwear sizes. They are compatible with various outdoor activities such as hiking, walking, and travel.
Care: To maintain the quality and longevity of your shoes:
- Cleaning Leather: Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris. For tougher stains on the leather, a dedicated leather cleaner may be used sparingly, following product instructions.
- Insole Care: The foam insole can typically be spot cleaned with mild soap and water. Allow it to air dry completely. The natural odor control feature works best when the shoe is allowed to air out after use.
- Outsole: Clean the rubber outsole with a brush to remove any embedded dirt or stones.
- Drying: Always air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or prolonged sunlight, which can damage the materials.
