I like keen as well, though they tend to run a bit narrow for me.I like my keen. I had some Merrill that did not last very long. But if seems that my 220lb carcass tends to kill shoes rather easily.
Weird I hav the opposite problem. I've killed Ken's within 2 weeks. The Merrells I wear everday are still going strong after 6 months. And my 300lb carcass ain't easy on shoes.I like my keen.

For that trail and the lack of hiking at least once per month, I'd go with a shoe-style hiker that can be work to the range, store, weekend type stuff. A big tall and bulky boot will serve you no purpose until it snows outside. That's a lot of money to let sit in the closet for 11.75 months a year.https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/utah/angels-landing-trail
This is the trail I want to do.
For me, this will be somewhat of an extreme hike. But it's only 5ml round trip.
But no, I don't hike on a regular basis.
Thanks for the input. I think I'll check out the hippies at Friendly Center this weekend.
I wish vasque still made the skywalk they are awesome, but like above after hundreds and hundreds of miles mine need to be resoled.

There my 11's.Well, I went to REI and the very nice lady spent all the time I needed to find what I liked.
After all was said and done, I must have tried on, and walked in eight different shoes.
I didn't come home with the prom queen, but I came home with the one that felt the best to me
with my eyes closed. I got the Keen Voyageur Mid.
By the way. You granola crunching hikers have little bitch feet.
I ended up with a 13 wide to fit me.
@BurnedOutGeek is the shoe in that picture yours, or the wife?
What dainty little feet you have.
Thanks for all the advice.
That's the new version. Close but definitely not the same for some reason. Not cleaned from last hike, obviously a muddy trip. Lol
