Hit the trail with confidence in the KEEN Gypsum hiking shoe. Built to provide support and protection from the elements during a wide range of cool-weather adventures, this waterproof women"s trail shoe has a nubuck and textile upper, padded collar and tongue, and lace closure for a secure fit. The KEEN.DRYTM membrane keeps water out but allows moisture to escape. An ESS shank adds support from below and an external stabilizer supports the heel. Stitched-in KEEN ZORB Strobel lends extra spring to the already comfortable EVA insole, which can be replaced with an orthotic for greater personalization. The KEEN Gypsum hiking shoe is finished with a non-marking rubber outsole that features 4mm multidirectional lugs and a large surface area for enhanced traction. Fit tip: This shoe runs a half-size short. KEEN recommends ordering a half-size up from your normal size (if you normally wear an 8, order an 8.5).
