Great Shoe - I ordered this shoe for a beach vacation in Mexico. It is very comfortable and was great for a beach vacation. It would rub against my foot a little when I wore the shoe for long periods of time without socks. I think this was because I didn't break them in at all but took them right on vacation. When they started to get uncomfortable, I'd wear socks with them for awhile and that would alleviate the discomfort. I also noticed that if you adjust the straps correctly and snugly, the shoe doesn't rub against your foot. Plenty of room in the toe box, which is a MUST for me. Overall, this is a great shoe and I look forward to wearing it this summer!

The Keen Whisper is a great shoe. Very light and slimmer than my favorite Keen Newport. I have a narrow foot so it's a little roomy but the lacing cinches up nicely for a comfortable fit. This is my new favorite Keen.

I was looking to replace my Keen Newports with a Keen sandal that is a little more urban and less "clunky" looking, and the Whisper fits the bill. The sandal is really lightweight and slimmer cut (kind of like how a running shoe is cut more aerodynamically than a walking shoe), so I find it a lot more comfortable than my Newports. I have wide feet, but the Whispers still fit great, despite the more streamlined look. Great shoe and definitely a keeper!

These sandals are awesome! I have tried several different types of Keens and these are my favorite by FAR. They were comfortable from the very first minute and fit perfectly (even though my feet are a bit wide). I definitely want another pair. LOVE THEM!!!!

Great shoe - This shoe is very light and comfortable. I wear 8 1/2 to 9 and nine was perfect. I like that the toe cap at the end is a little more low profile than some other keens. I wore them a couple of days around the house and they were broken in.

I just bought a pair of these. Last year I bought my first and only pair of Keens: the Napa boot - now discontinued. I love 'em! And wanted more Keens. I wasn't exactly looking for sandals, but after an almost cigar pair of other style sandals, decided to try these on. I have wide feet and long little toes. They looked narrow and didn't look like they'd have much arch support. Comparing them to the other style, they were a better overall fit. More straps and I am the kind who needs a shoe, boot or sandal that's strapped on or I will lose it, or it will flop around, or I’ll slide off. I wasn't 100% sure but when I found out the store only gets one pair of each size I knew I had to buy them or they'd be gone the first day the sun came out (yesterday). I am loving them! I've been wearing them indoors with socks instead of mocs or slippers. They seem to be providing more support than I expected, are soft and comfy, and very flexible. Sort of like a barefoot shoe if that makes any sense. "Whisper" is a perfect name for them. The acid test will be how much support they provide in the concrete jungle. Even if they aren't good on concrete, they'll get worn a lot. They’ll be my #1 sandal and my North Face ones will be downgraded. They smell anyway. These fit my wide "pancake" feet well. They make my feet look much longer and narrower than they are. When I look at them, it's like my feet aren't my feet, yet they feel almost like they are made for me. Before I bought them I realized that in the event that the heel is too loose (it isn't specifically adjustable) a person could stitch a tuck in the ribbon that goes through the heel and thus tighten the back of the heel. What other kinds of shoes are "alterable" at home? They got me. Now... if they come in another colour I like and/or if I can get them on the internet (Zappos Canada doesn't appear to sell Keens), I might buy another pair of them. They are keepers and, like other faves, will eventually wear out. Keen seems to change styles a lot. Cheers to happy summer feet.
Brands I'd also recommend: North Face... similar to these keens = softer soles than most sandals. I don\'t like hard soles.

Great sports shoe. Very comfortable, fits well. Some of the other brands I tried (like Teva) were so wide and these hug the foot without being snug or too tight. Easy on and off. Love them!

Almost as good as my keen presidios - I bought a pair of presidios six months ago and have hardly worn any other shoes since. I was going to Florida for vacation and needed a sandal in a hurry so turned to keen. The foot bed is a close second to the presidio although not quite as comfortable. There is some minor pushing and rubbing against my heels and toes, but nothing serious or even distracting. I tried the Newports at the same time and loved the look (narrower overall) but the foot bed was much less supportive and I missed the wide toe box. Keens are incredible.
Brands I'd also recommend: keen presidio, keen newport

I am so happy with these shoes. They're great for work (massage therapist) since they're closed-toe, and they're also great for tai chi. Not to mention walking around! I have a narrow heel with wider toes, and they fit well. The Whisper is more attractive than my other Keens.

Like a slipper - I have many pair of Keens, and these are by far the most comfortable. They are adjustable on every part of the foot, snug but not constricting in any way. Even the heel strap can be tightened.They also fit around my bunion, as well as hiding it. They are very flexible, not stiff at first as with most other Keens, and are very light as well. The soles don't look like they would be very grippy, but I tried them on some big boulders and grip almost like a mountain shoe. Have worn them on short 2-3 hour hikes with no blisters or sore spots. I hope Keen expands with this lighter, sleek design. I normally take a size 9 in the Keen shoes and a 8 1/2 in sandals and the Whisper is no exception.
Brands I'd also recommend: Only KEEN!!!

I like these shoes - This sandal got me hooked on Keens. Since I first purchased these shoes, I have bought 3 more pairs of Keens. No break in period, very comfortable. I normally wear a size 8 1/2. After reading the reviews, I ordered a size larger and they fit fine.

Love this sandal - I have another pair of Keen's so thought I'd try the sandal. As comfortable as a slipper right out of the box but with good support. I usually wear an 8.5 but got the 9 from previous experience with Keen. We're going to Europe this summer and they will definitely be my touring shoes. Zappos' customer support is outstanding--you rock!!

These sandals are cute and comfy. I have narrow feet and I did like how I could just adjust the width for a snug fit. That is a huge problem I have with most sandals. They may adjust, but not enough to fit properly. I ordered the green and I just love them. This my first pair of keens. I usually wear and 8 sometimes if things are made small an 8.5, but I believe these fit true to size.

Whisper works - Very comfortable, though the support is less than the Newport. True to size, finally. Keen has been letting me down recently, with less support, and ending my favorite styles (Providence clogs). Glad to finally find a pair I like.

Good summer active sandal - I got these for the beach and riding my bike. I like the toe protection. This is my 3rd pair of Keen shoes and I've learned to order a half-size larger than my usual shoe size. These feel slightly longer than my other Keens and have plenty of extra toe space but the next size down would probably be too short. I like the ability to adjust/tighten the fit with the elastic cord (what if the cord breaks?). Overall, I like them so far but haven't put them to a real beach test yet.

Super Comfortable All Purpose Sandal - This shoe meets my needs for a casual sandal to wear dog walking, traveling, and to work. I tried other Keens and thought they were a little too rugged looking for non-sporting wear, but these are fine. The fabric is stretchy and accommodates a wide foot, so these probably would be too big for a narrow foot. I went up half a size based on other Keen reviews and this worked for me.

Awesome! This sandal is the most comfortable and lightweight sandal I have ever worn. My pair of Keen Newport H2 were very heavy and I needed to break them in. My first time I wore them for over 8 hours at work.

Finally a flexible sport shoe - The Whisper is really comfortable, especially the strap around the heel...no need for a breaking in period. This shoe stays on, is light weight and again flexible! The color is true to the website and sizing information was accurate. The toe guard is what I wanted as I walk a large dog and may be pulled into any type of terrain, now I don't worry about injuries. Great shoe all around.
