Not complete water protection - After having the previous sandal version of these known as the Mt. Hood, I was very happy to a boot version. The fit and comfort is great as I have come to expect from Keen. Now that the boots have arrived, I feel I must point out the inconsistency in their description given on this website. In that description they are listed as "complete water protection" but also listed as having "drainable midsole and outsole" This drainage refers to mesh vents in the toe and heel areas of the sole (can be seen in the pictures). Well, the same drainage area that let out water will be the same area that let in water if you are standing in a puddle. My planned usage for them is for sailing. I expect that I will not see puddling but if you plan to use these in launching a canoe or standing in shallow water, expect a wet foot. My advise here is do not miss understand water protection to imply waterproof.
