KS86 Sneaker (Women)

I bought these on clearance at a DSW in America. I immediately wore them walking 4 miles and I do really like them. Comfortable from minute one. They seem to be water resistant too? Cause I walked into a puddle and my feet didn't get wet. I have a low arch/flatter feet with pronation and these are very comfortable for me. They are stylish too. I love the deep trending as well. However, the sizing is confusing. I am a women's 10. 5. but these say size 9US/42UK. I think this is going by their gender neutral sizing?? Why are we doing this? It makes sizing unnecessarily confusing. I want to their website cause I wanted to buy more of these but idk what size to get now. Their sizing guide says women's 10. 5 is a UK 41. Their women's 11 is a UK 42. And their gender neutral is US 9 /UK 42 which is what these shoes are. But all their sizing on the shoes are not in the gender neutral category. It's all women or mens. Idk what size I need to get!! I can't answer if they are true to size or are wide or narrow because I have no. idea what size these shoes truly are with the "gender neutral" size on them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased these for an upcoming trip to Europe and have been wearing them for the last week to break them in. The insoles are so thin it feels like cardboard. I wore them all day yesterday and have the worst blisters. They also run incredibly large (at least a half size).

I bought a pair of the KS86 sneakers for a trip to Morocco because of previous good experiences with Keen footwear on long trips and because of the great tread. I was NOT disappointed on my trip. I wore these shoes every day for two weeks with extended walking days on slippery cobblestone surfaces in the souks, through the desert, over ancient ruins, through the airport, you name it. I never lost my footing once and they were amazingly comfortable. I loved them so much that DURING my trip I ordered another pair in black for an upcoming river cruise in Europe in the fall!
