I've wore a pair of Keen that is very similar, but lower cut. I wear them everyday on the farm and they have held up very well. Anything that will stand up to constant exposure to cowchit has to be well made. The acid in the manure eats up any shoe /boot that isn't made of good material. I wear them while cutting wood, fill them with saw dust on almost a daily basis because of the lower cut. Mine are going on there 2nd year of hell, they look rough, but now are so comfortable I'll wear them until the soles fall off. I would think they would do you a good job.
