FAQs

Are the Keen Uneek shoes suitable for wide feet?

The two-cord construction offers a degree of adaptability. While not specifically designed for wide feet, many users find the adjustable nature of the cords accommodates a wider range of foot shapes than traditional closed-toe shoes.

Can I wear these in water?

Yes, the materials are quick-drying and the open design allows for water to drain easily. They are suitable for activities near water or in wet conditions, though they are not waterproof.

What is the primary advantage of the two-cord system?

The primary advantage is the freedom of movement and the highly adaptable, secure fit it provides. The cords dynamically adjust to the wearer's foot, offering personalized comfort and support.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is comfortable room in the toe box and that the heel cup does not slip. The lace capture system should allow you to achieve a snug, secure fit without pressure points.

What kind of terrain are these shoes best for?

They are best suited for light to moderate hiking trails, walking paths, and general outdoor use. The higher-traction outsole provides good grip on varied surfaces.

Do these shoes offer arch support?

Yes, they feature metatomical insoles, which are anatomically contoured to provide excellent arch support and help cradle the natural shape of the foot.

How does the odor control feature work?

The Cleansport NXT™ technology utilizes probiotic-based treatment to naturally break down odor-causing bacteria, helping to keep your feet and shoes fresh.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or too loose

Adjust the tension of the lace capture system. Experiment with different levels of tightness to find your optimal secure fit. The cord system may take a few wears to fully conform to your foot.

Reduced traction on slippery surfaces

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. The razor siping is designed for grip, but excessive buildup can impede performance.

Discomfort after initial wear

Allow for a break-in period. The unique cord and metatomical insole design may require a few outings to become fully comfortable as they adapt to your foot's shape.

Odor persists despite cleaning

While Cleansport NXT™ offers natural odor control, persistent odors can occur with heavy use. Ensure thorough cleaning and complete air drying between uses. Consider using a specialized shoe deodorizer if needed.
