Update: Oct 2017. I've had these for two years now and the quality has been first rate. I've worn them on many many hikes and snowshoe outings and they have held up well. I think they've still got years of service left. One thing is I went back to the original keen footbed. They never felt quite right with the superfeet and it turns out the the original footbed molds perfectly to your foot with wear. Easily the most comfortable boot that I've owned.
I wanted a pair of these for quite some time, but was hesitant based on some of the quality reviews I had read. However, I bought a pair of Keen Arroyo II's this summer, which has basically the same sole. I hiked all over in the Arroyo's on some really tough trails and had no issues with the soles coming apart. So as fall/winter approached I decided to get the Targhee Mids. As is typical to Keen they run a little small. I bought 11.5's and even though that's the size I have in the Arroyo's, these fit a little shorter. 12's were to big though, so 11.5's it is. I wish they were just a fraction bigger like the Arroyos. They come with a good insole and arch support, but I use Superfeet black in mine. I've used them for trail hiking and snowshoeing in addition to wearing them around town, to work, etc. They do require a little bit of break in time, although some say they're good right out of the box. I've found the grip on rocks to be excellent and they stayed warm and dry though deep snow and 15 degree temps on a recent snowshoe outing. Very solid shoe.

KEEN Men's AND Women's Targhee II Mid WP Hiking Boots Still Clocking the Miles 15 Months Later
Purchased my KEEN Men's Targhee II Mid WP Hiking Boots, Size 13, in November 2015. Prior to this review, I have been wearing them off and on for 15 months and ~150 - 200 miles on the trails. This includes several multi-day, weighted backpacking trips with some moderate elevation and moderately technical trails. These boots have served me well, providing a comfortable fit and with no quality issues. In an effort to shave weight wherever I can for some longer section hikes on the Florida Trail and the Appalachian Trail this year, I briefly considered switching to trail running shoes, over these. However, the light weight of these made the gains minimal and at the expense of security and support. I'll stick with my KEENs and hope to seem them carry me many, many miles over the next few years! P.S. - My girlfriend has a pair of the KEEN Women's Targhee II Mid WP Hiking Boots, has put hers through the same paces, and loves hers equally!
