Very comfortable and cute
Bought these shoes because I'm going to Italy soon and wanted some good walking/hiking shoes that were not athletic shoes. I have various foot problems so I need support and athletic shoes are just to casual for everyday wear in the European countries that I've visited. These shoes needed very little "breaking-in" and have a nice wide toe box, so they are very comfortable. They look great with my hiking pants and jeans, even casual capris. Very happy with them.

reliable = Keen
Keen shoes are great for inserts. This shoe requires no break-in period. However, the toe box is large and while this is good for inserts, you need to wear thick socks. I have wore these in the city for walking and for traveling - quite comfortable. I also was wearing them when I went to a very muddy event and tried to keep them clean. The shoes kept my feet dry and cleaned up easily.

Very comfortable.
I walk a lot and need new walking shoes about every year. I have a lot of pairs of Keen for work and play, have mostly (but not exclusively) loved them. I had seen the Wichita in emails from Keen, and was interested. Then I got my yearly dividend from REI, and ordered a pair. They are comfortable. Lightweight. Great walking shoes. However, they do seem to represent an older demographic (my 25 year old daughter teased me about having old people shoes). I like them.
