My husband and I were going on our first "Empty Nester" cruise which was going to involve swimming with dolphins, deep-sea helmet walking on the ocean floor, river-tubing and zip-lining. We needed water shoes that we could wear all day away from the ship while we went on our excursions. We each bought a pair of these shoes and they were perfect. They were so comfortable to walk in that we forgot about them. They protected our feet in the water and then were simply cool, comfortable walking shoes while shopping. I am extremely picky about comfortable shoes, so I ordered a half size larger for my husband and then I chose the man's size for myself, thinking they would be wider. I also got them a half-size bigger. Both shoes fit perfectly for us and we liked them with or without socks. I definitely would get them a half-size bigger. You can find cheaper water shoes, but these shoes are so comfortable that they could be worn all day for whatever came up. Since they were open sandals, they were cooler than the Propet walkers that I would normally have worn for walking. I am looking forward to wearing them when we go kayaking.

Love these! This is my first pair of Keen sandals, and I have no complaints. Very secure shoe that is great for any activity, wet or dry. There are a lot of mixed feelings on whether to size up or use your normal shoe size with Keen. I have pretty narrow feet and usually wear a size 8; however, I bumped it up to an 8.5 and they fit perfectly with no problems. I like the added toe protection so I can use them on rugged trails, something I could not do in other sport sandals.

I live in Puerto Vallarta Mexico and do a lot of walking on cobbled streets, up and down steep hills in tropical weather and often in heavy rain. My wife and I have been wearing Keens daily for years now and they are ideal for these conditions. I just received the venice sandals and they are a great improvement over the our old Keens. Lighter weight and a little more air and wiggle room, but still a snug and super comfortable fit. I am ordering another pair!

Insane comfort. One of the best pair of shoes I have ever owned. I would wear them to work if I could and occasionally I sleep in them.

I bought these shoes as a gift for my husband. He was not at all convinced that he needed them or would like them. He absolutely loves them, and they have become his everyday summer shoe. They look good all the time, even after a day in the sand as they rinse off and dry quickly. They give him the support he needs and the comfort he desires. They break in immediately. Slip them on to walk the dog, go for a bike-ride, boating or for the beach. Today, while visiting Charleston, SC, they will make a trek to the ocean again.

Very comfortable - no problems with getting the strap on and off. I went on a 5m walk after I got the sandals and no problems with chafing. No break-in needed. Pebbles will get in under your feet and occasionally you'll have to take the sandal off to clear it out. So if that is of concern, then stick with shoes. Good arch support and overall cushioning. Walked on varied terrain: asphalt, sidewalk, dirt, rocky ground, and it handled it all without a problem.

I ordered the shoes for my husband as a gift and he loves them. If you haven't tried Keens... you must. Our whole family wears Keens everyday. Great comfort, airflow, and they last forever.

I bought these for my husband because I had a pair, and he kept whining because he didn’t have any. He loved them right out of the box. They are comfortable, stay on in the water, dry fast, and with the rubber toe, protect your feet, and keep you from tripping the way you can with open-toed sandals. We love them!

The Keen Venice H2 sandals are exactly what I wanted, even though I had to send the first pair back because they were too small. I recommend ordering a half size larger than normal. The replacements came before I even had the original pair in the mail. I like the more enclosed style the Venice H2 sandals have rather than the open toes of most sandals. Thank you Zappos.

These are great shoes. They are somewhat lighter and slightly more comfortable than the Newport H2. I would highly recommend the Venice H2s.

This shoe unfailingly fits and wears perfectly. It’s comfortable, durable, and washable (no dryer). If I could wear it every single day, I would. Come to think of it, I DO! Probably the best thing about Zappos is that it satisfies the need for immediate shopping gratification better than an internet experience I’ve ever had. Without fail, every time I order and everything I order, comes the following day (even if I’ve ordered it that night).

These water shoes are awesome! Only issue I could find with them is if you are going someplace with small pebbles. These will not keep the pebble out but they are sturdy enough for walking and sea urchins. I wore them in St. John in the water and out. I did not have the slippery shoe issue at all and they provided decent (not perfect) support over asphalt, rocks, sand and whatever else I encountered on the trip.

Zappos is the best shoe source! Keen shoes are just what we had heard about! They do run a little small though, so I recommend getting a size larger! Thanks for such great service and FAST shipping!

Reviewer: Carey from Maryland
Overall: (5 Stars) Comfort: (5 Stars) Style: (5 Stars)
I wear a 14 and had to order a full size larger to get a good fit. I walk 5 miles to work and used to wear Tevas (because everyone said they are great; "Oooh! Tevas!"). Wound up with chronic heel pain & crippling stiff tendons on sole, the next day. I now wear these Keens to work and have zero pain, not even a blister. They are warmer than Tevas due to a lot more material and the lacing was a little confusing -- Tevas pull the foot backward by tightening the ankle strap, but tightening the elastic on these pulls your foot forward. Almost sent them back until I looked closely at how the elastic is laced, loosened it and now they are the most comfortable shoes I own and I wear them all day without any fatigue. Like others have observed, if gravel gets inside, it won't come out unless you take the shoe off.

Sunny Beaches - A great quick drying sandal. Very comfortable and yet sturdy. I will probably buy another pair in black.

Nice looking shoe but my toe rubs against the front of the shoe. Not good but okay. If I hadn't needed them for a trip I would have sent them back. They are great water shoes.

Ugly duckling, feet of a swan - I wear these everyday unless there's freezing rain. I just bought two new pairs, although the pair that I've worn for almost 3 years is still my favorite.

Great Shoe! This shoe is a great water shoe. I bought them for my husband for tooling around on the river...I have a pair and LOVE them. We raft in Colorado and they are great for water and land hiking around. Also, both of our children have a pair and I love the toe guard for them. These shoes are great to throw on and go tooling around all day and not hurt your feet...They are so comfy! These shoes have fit all of our family true to our shoe size and are really durable.

Excellent Sandal! These are some of the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. I am 50 yrs. old and swore I would never wear a sandal until I found these Keens...I am sold 100% on this shoe and have no qualms about recommending them to anyone who is looking for a great open shoe with toe protection, I use them in the surf, in the river, and just general all around wear and they are top notch.
