Product Information
Full details
Designed for adult males seeking comfort and grip on summer trails, the KEEN Targhee III Open Toe Sandals offer a breathable, supportive fit with superior traction. A potential drawback is their open-toe design, which may not provide adequate protection on rugged terrain. These sandals combine a leather and performance mesh upper with a durable rubber outsole, featuring a multi-directional lug pattern and Keen.Dry technology for waterproof breathability. The TPU heel capture system ensures a secure fit, making them ideal for multi-day summer hikes.

FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The Targhee III sandals are known for a relatively roomy fit, which can accommodate wider feet. However, individual fit can vary. Adjusting the straps provides some flexibility.
Can I wear these for water activities like crossing streams?
Yes, the materials are water-resistant and the outsole provides good grip. However, they are not designed as water shoes, and excessive submersion should be avoided. Ensure they are cleaned and dried properly after contact with water.
How do I clean the Keen.Dry membrane?
The Keen.Dry membrane is integrated into the shoe. Clean the exterior of the sandal as recommended. The membrane works by allowing moisture vapor to escape, so regular cleaning of the outer materials will help maintain its function.
What is the main difference between the Targhee III boot and the open-toe sandal?
The primary difference is the design: the sandal offers more ventilation and a lighter feel with an open-toe construction, while the boot provides full foot coverage and enhanced ankle support for more rugged or demanding conditions.
Is the sizing true to UK standards?
Generally, KEEN footwear runs true to size. However, it's always recommended to check the KEEN size chart or try them on if possible, as foot shape can influence fit.
Can I replace the insoles?
The insoles are typically not designed for easy removal in this model. However, if space allows, some users may be able to fit a thinner, aftermarket insole for added customization.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel too tight or too loose.
Adjust the hook-and-loop straps for a customized fit. Ensure the heel strap is securely fastened to prevent slippage.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces.
While designed for high traction, extreme wet conditions can still pose a risk. Clean the outsole regularly to remove mud or debris that might impede grip. Use caution on very slippery surfaces.
Leather upper appears dry or stiff.
Apply a leather conditioner or moisturizer specifically designed for footwear to restore suppleness and protect the material. Follow product instructions for application.
Discomfort on longer walks.
Ensure the straps are adjusted correctly. Allow for a break-in period of a few wears to let the materials mold to your feet. Consider wearing moisture-wicking socks if needed.
