How to measure: stand on a piece of paper and mark the back of your heel and the tip of your longest toe, then measure the distance in centimeters. If one foot is longer than the other, use the larger measurement and match it to the closest Heel-to-toe value in the chart.

Fit notes: every KEEN starts with a secure heel fit for stability, with room in the toe box for toes to splay. KEEN footwear is built on an anatomical last with fine-tuned arch support and cushioning, and protected by KEEN's iconic rubber toe bumper.
