The Keen Newport is an outstanding sandal, and Zappos is by far the best online retailer, bar none. I have size 13 feet with negative/no arch whatsoever!!! Needless to say, finding shoes or let alone sandals, is nearly impossible (don't know what I would do w/o Zappos). I used to wear Birkenstocks and still do for arch support, but they obviously don't do well in wet, muddy conditions. This is my 2nd pair of H2s, and I bought 2 pair this time: one for yard work around the house and one for summer outings. They offer tremendous ankle and arch support for all day comfort while the adjustable lace system provides a great fit with or without socks. My whole family has been wearing Keens for 5-6 years now and loves them! My last pair lasted through 4-5years of abuse of my 275lb frame!

This is 2nd pair of H2 and have regular Newports. The H2 are great, comfort-wise but both pair came apart where the backstraps come together at the ankles. Got less than a year's wear on each of H2 because the straps wore in two.

I tried on a pair, same style, in a discontinued color, in DSW and, even though they were a FULL size larger than I normally wear, I went home and ordered a pair in Black from Zappos, expecting them to fit just like the ones in the store. But they were STILL too tight. The footbed felt right but the uppers felt like I had an Ace bandage around my foot. I think if I went up another half-size, it might be looser but the rest of the shoe wouldn't feel right. I give up!

The H2 has been my go-to warm weather sandal for the past 8 years, worn 200-250+ days per year. They are comfortable as everyday wear, and for light-moderate day hiking. They dry quickly if made wet, and don't hold any foot odor (at least mine haven't). They hold up decently well, but after a couple of years the stitches that hold the back strap do start to rip. Even with ripped sandals I've worn several pairs nearly through the soles. (That's a good thing). They are a bit clunky looking but their comfort allows me to completely overlook that. Highly recommended.

Brought with on my trip to Israel, expecting them to be similar to my leather Newports. These were way too narrow and left blisters everywhere. Overall, not what I have grown to expect from this incredible brand.
Brands I'd also recommend: Keen, Ecco, and Nike

Hey, I guess I'm a real cheapy, I have never paid this much for a pair of shoes in my life! I can't say enough about these shoes. We vacation in Fl. each winter and since I got these shoes I haven't worn anything but them. At night I even wear socks in them. I can't wait for summer to come here in Michigan so I can start to wear them again. They are extremely comfortable, easy to put on and durable.

What can I say I LOVE THESE SHOES! I had initially ordered my regular shoe size 8.5 and when I got them I tired them on, they were too snug with socks so I decided to exchange them for the next size up 9, they fit great right out of the box, so please heed the reviews and order one half size up you'll be glad you did...

I got these for my boyfriend to wear on a trip to the Galapagos, and they worked great. Very comfortable for wet landings on the beach, and easy to rinse the sand out of (very important on that trip) after a hike. Most importantly, didn't chafe while they were wet.

I bought these for my husband for our trip to Hawaii. When he saw that I ordered a full size larger than he normally wears he told me that they would not work, but when he tried them on they fit perfectly. I had read the reviews and many had advised they run small. He wore them every day on our trip, which including walking, hiking, zip lining and he was very pleased! He liked the great arch support.

I am very pleased with these sandals. I sent back two different sizes a short time had just the right size. The sandals are comfortable and functional for my water and hiking activities. Zappos service was great and can't be beat. Job well done.

The H2s are instantly comfortable. No breaking in time needed. These are now my go-to traveling shoes. Looking forward to taking them out to Hawaii for hiking and beach fun. This is my first pair of Keens, but it won't be my last.

I ordered and received a pair of Keen sandals promptly. Then a month later there was a problem with them. I made one telephone call and got them returned and replaced within two days. I am happy with their return policy and their customer service. Some things are fading away fast but not at Zappos. Thank you Zappos.

Yes, these are great. The cinch cord allows for quick tightening and the back heel section is padded for comfort. No blisters with these!

Great but hard to find product due to demand. Zappos had the style and selection I wanted when no one else did. My Keens arrived promptly and shipping was free. Only way it could be better is if a Zappos showroom van pulled up to my door.
Brands I'd also recommend: There isn't anything quite like Keen. Expensive but uniquely near perfect.

I am an insulin dependent diabetic, so I pay a lot of attention to my feet. These sandals are a compromise between foot protection and ventilation. I especially like the adjustment method, where most of the time I keep it loose for frequent on/off cycles, but can easily snug the fit for longer walks. I have yet to test these in Houston's hot humid summer. They fit perfectly, are comfortable, and require little break-in. If you plan to stomp around in pea gravel, don't wear sandals.

My wife has had Keen's for years and she talked me into trying a pair. And I'm glad I did, this is my 3rd pair. Last year I waited to long to order a pair and when I needed a pair all the good colors where gone for the season so I had to settle for black pair at a local store. So if you like a pair don't wait, and you will enjoy them and don't worry about the the big round toe look. Great arch support and they can washed by hand or my wife throws hers in the wash machine. And Zappos has great shipping and returns if needed. Enjoy!

Best shoe I've ever owned! Wore the first pair to death! Were a tiny bit smaller than marked but not a whole half size.

I ordered these with only four days before Christmas. Even though it was such a short time, I received them after 9:00 PM on the day before Christmas. They were the perfect gift for my son! He was thrilled. What great service and the shipping was free! The customer service is the best!

I bought these shoes/sandals for a trip to Singapore and Borneo about a month ago. I was looking for shoes that would be comfortable in hot, humid weather and that would not blister my feet. I am delighted with these shoes from Keen. I wore them everyday in Singapore and Borneo and never had a problem. They are not fashionable, but no one complained about their looks and they were extremely comfortable.

My husband has been very happy with these shoes. He uses them at the beach or for yard work. He has a wider foot and these are a bit snug, but still comfortable.
