Wish I hadn't bought these. No arch support and no way to use my orthotics without loosing the top of my toes.

Love these funky, ugly shoes -
Yes--they are clunky looking but so ugly they are cool, ya know? I live in an outdoorsy part of the country, and everybody who is anybody wears these shoes when hiking, trail running, and biking, etc. I recently wore my new Keen Newports all over the Moab, Utah area--hiking, scrambling on rocks, even jumping from rock to rock in a slot canyon near Moab in order to avoid pools of water and this shoe never failed me. I barely even slipped. You get incredibly good traction in this shoe, and they are very hardy and comfortable, too. I did wear them with breathable (non-cotton) ankle socks for extra comfort, which is important when you are outside in the 100 degree heat for 12 hours. This is now my shoe of choice for any outdoor sport. And, these are much more comfortable than the Keen Lagunas, too--better arch support. Be sure to buy them a half size or a full size larger.

Excellent shoe!
Comfortable from the start and definitely water-worthy. I wore them ww rafting on the Deschutes River in central OR and they were great. Handled the slippery rocks and rocky beaches well, too. As for size, if you are truly your size (i.e. in my case 7.5), then get that size. They are cut exactly to fit, not small. I ordered an 8 in another pair of Keens b/c of the site recommendations, and they were enormous.

Excellent Shoe -
If you're looking for fashion rather than substance in a summer shoe, this may not be the one for you. However, this shoe, like so many other Keen styles, is well designed, manufactured comfortable and the overall fit is extraordinarily, foot conscience. If you're a new Keen owner, you may need to sample sizes before finding a true fit, but when you do it's generally consistent across the Keen family of product and so too is the comfort factor. For me, this shoe ROCKS!

Comfy, but sore pinky toe -
I love Keens. They are comfy and wide enough for my chunky feet. There is just one issue I have with Newports. The way that the shoe fits my foot - it rubs against my pinky toe (right where the toenail and the toe meet). Ouch! I think this is just a problem with my feet. I would recommend (like everybody else) ordering up 1/2 size. I usually wear an 8.5, but I had to get a 9 in these. Overall this is a great shoe - and my guess is that the rubbing issue is just with me. As always, Zappos is great. If only everybody did business like they do!

Outstanding!
These shoes are so comfortable that I can wear them all day with comfort and proper ventilation. They are cool. I chose "Plum Kitten" and they match with everything from shorts to my skorts, dresses, and skirts. They are fantastic gardening and hiking shoes. I will be getting some in a brighter color. I can tell these shoes are going to last a lifetime. 5 stars!

Kinda Keen -
These shoes are going to be my summer road shoes... cool in summer, but supportive enough for walking. I think they will be great, but warning that they can be a bit stiff - they caused blisters on the first wearing. Service from Zappos was first-rate though!

A blessing for sore feet -
I first purchased a pair of these in a small out of town shoe store upon recommendation of a business associate I was calling visiting. I wear size 15, the store had 'em and I bought 'em and carried them on the plane! They are wonderfully comfortable. Upon arriving at home, my wife saw them and we guessed that based on the way mine were built, the sandals might work for her. We ordered from Zappos just before a Cape Cod vacation - they came in two days! My wife has arthritis and serious callous issues with her feet. She actually almost lives in expensive running shoes because they have excellent support and a wide footbed. These sandals are a dream come true for her. She can wear them for unlimited periods of time. Great fitting sandal at a decent price and very well made. Waterproof, too!

What a great sandal!
WOW! These are the best fitting sandals I've ever tried. It's like they were made for my feet. Not to mention the customer service -- which was spectacular. I chose regular delivery and Zappos sent me an email "upgrading" the delivery. I ordered them one day and received them the next. Truly delightful service.

First word uttered when first putting on shoes: WOW.
The shoes are the BEST. As soon as I put them on, I just knew that these were going to be comfortable. And they were. No breaking-in time. I walk in these shoes daily -- up (and down) hills for at least an hour a day. They give me great support, much more than I would have guessed from the looks of the shoe. These are my first pair of Keens, and I'm hooked. (And the order experience with Zappos.com is fantastic, as usual.)

More a shoe than a sandal -
I like this shoe with a few reservations. It's comfortable and fits well. But I find it a bit heavy and the solid sole is hard on my plantar fasciitis. Will wear it for short hikes.

These are extremely comfortable, durable, and really cute. They come in a multitude of colors and I actually found my size. Shoes usually stop at size 10, but I wear a 10 1/2. I highly recommend them.

My favorite ever!!!
This is my 3rd pair of Newports and my 7th pair of Keens! I wear the Newports for everything, including walking across a creek and gardening. I love the Shitake/Rose color and am trying to keep them nice for running around town, so I wear my old ones for the real messy stuff!

Ugly, but comfortable -
Well, I've owned prettier shoes, but not many that are as comfortable.
Excellent for relaxed activities, say, a walk in the woods or a trip to the ballgame. Plenty of space to wiggle your toes - though I'd welcome more arch support (I have high arches). Zappos, as always, shipped the shoes per lightning speed, they have to be the best internet dealer ever. Woo-woo!

Once again, Keens are wonderful, comfortable without a break-in period. I will be ordering more in different colors. These are truer to my shoe size than ones ordered in the past. Love them...wear them for work and hiking.

These are the best sandals I have ever bought. I can walk in them and I workout in them too. I will never buy another sandal for comfort again.

I was looking for a versatile shoe/sandal to take to the desert - these are great! Comfort, grip, hardiness, and keep their like new appearance. Thanks for a great shoe and especially service!

Keen sandals -
These sandals are the best shoes I have ever had. They are worth every dollar. Everyone that sees them asks where I got them. My sister even bought a pair.

Don't get all the hype -
Had to return. Just fit too snugly and I thought looks wise it would be great for a "camping shoe" but wasn't great for hanging out at swim meets, bbqs, and other summer time events I attend. My six year old commented that it looked "big and goofy" and I kind of had to agree. Still LOVE Zappos though!!

Best pair ever -
I love these shoes... and they are the 6th pair of Keens I've purchased. I generally have to wear orthotics, but I can wear the Newports right out of the box. Excellent for city-hiking or just walking around.

Functional and Comfortable -
I bought this shoe after seeing it on several fellow travelers on a recent trip to South Africa. It was perfect for the game viewing rides and for walking in "bush" conditions. I thought it might be good for the occasional summer hike or outdoors activity. I found that it fits well and is comfortable. I took the others' advice and ordered it a half size larger than my usual. This was a good decision as they fit perfectly. They also accommodate my bunions and other foot problems very well. My only complaint is that my soles sweat a bit when wearing them and so for me, they are more comfortable wearing with socks.

I have many pairs of Keens and love them all! Fit is 1/2 size smaller than I normally wear. I have worn corrective shoes as a child and can wear these all day! Leather is a little warmer than the Newport 2, but I still love them!

This is my third pair of Keens Newport. I have the blue, the raisin and now the sand. This is a comfortable, supportive sandal and I do not have to worry about my toes. I also think they look great on my feet. Order this in a half size larger than normal for a great fit.

 |  | The look on my niece's face when she saw the Heelys box after opening her b-day gift was priceless. The shoes arrived on time and the free overnight shipping was a huge customer service perk. Zappos is the kind of company that CARES about what their customers want and need. They really know how to make an experience great online shopping! Thanks Zappos! |  | ~ , August 01 2008
