FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Keen Jasper is designed for breathability and comfort; it is not waterproof, so it is best suited for dry or light trail conditions.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the interior includes a removable polyurethane insole, making it compatible with most aftermarket orthotics.
How do I clean the suede?
Use a soft brush to remove dirt. Do not submerge the shoes in water or use a washing machine.
Does the shoe come with extra laces?
Yes, every pair includes an additional set of laces to allow for styling changes.
Are these good for long-distance hiking?
They are designed for urban use and light trails, not heavy-duty, long-distance backpacking.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel loose after walking
Ensure the laces are threaded tightly through all the lower loops toward the toe, as the climbing-style design relies on uniform tension from the front to the ankle.
Suede looks dull or dusty
Use a specialized suede brush or a dry sponge to gently buff the surface to restore the nap of the material.
Pros and Cons
Pros

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, pull the laces through the loops starting from the toe to ensure even tension across the forefoot. If you intend to use your own custom insoles, remove the factory-installed polyurethane footbed first to maintain proper internal volume.
For care, gently brush the suede upper with a soft-bristled brush to remove dried dirt. Avoid machine washing or using high-heat drying, as this can damage the suede texture and compromise the adhesive bonds of the rubber sole. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
