Customer Reviews KEEN Newport H2

Perfect fit and comfort with a sporty look.

Very pleased - Both my husband and son-in-law have a pair of these shoes and really like them. Great for wearing around the house and yard and also for the boat.

Unbelievably comfortable - I have suffered with ball of foot pain for several months now. These sandals have a very wide toe box and are the first shoe I have had in quite a while that I can wear all day long without pain. Style is very different from shoes I have worn in the past and at age 62 a little younger look than I normally wear. But unbelievably comfortable. I plan to wear these on a two week trip to Italy this summer.

Keen H2 Sandals - Bought them and immediately went to the Middle East with them to put'em to the test. I'm flat footed and particular about shoes and the arch support they provide. My feet thank me for picking these shoes. They stay cool and dry in extreme heat. My only complaint is that some of the neoprene covering, nylon, under the nylon straps, is coming off after only owning them for less than a month. If you put some hard miles on these, they don't appear to fair well on the outside. Doesn't seem to affect any of the other aspects of the shoe.

Initial sizing problem - I ordered men's 8.5 -- the shoe that came felt like a man's 8.0. I returned the shoes and got the next size up. Since then it has been great.

Great Shoes - I get tons of compliments wearing these sweet shoes. They are very comfortable.

These shoes are "Keen"- These shoes are great. They are super comfortable and super functional.

Awesome - These shoes are fantastic and great for beach or summertime wear.

Great all-around casual shoe - The comfort of the H2 is excellent. Very good arch support. I forget that I'm wearing a sandal as the toe protection and spacing of the webbing almost make it feel like a full shoe, albeit a very airy one. I purchased the black and the only thing I would change would be to make the foot bed black instead of grey. Dealing with Zappos was a pleasure, as always. Purchased around noon Thursday and had them on my feet Friday morning. Free shipping and no tax!

Keen's changed my life - I wear size 12 in women's shoes, and it's difficult to find athletic shoes that fit. The Keens are wide enough in the toe box, in a Men's size 11, and keep my feet cool and supported. I've been able to start biking and have completed two long rides, which I never would have been able to do without these SHOES! Truly fantastic...no 'break in' time, no pain after wearing!

Pleasantly surprised - My wife brought these shoes home to me for an early father’s day gift and I wear them all the time. They fit great and are amazingly comfortable. Messing around outside with kids, wading and fishing in the river, so far they’re great. If they hold up, their worth the $$.

Perfect for water - I bought these shoes for working with my dog in Lake Michigan. They are very comfortable and absorb absolutely no water. When I get home I just hose them off and they are dry in minutes. They take a little getting used to getting them on. It is important to make sure you slide your foot as far forward into the sandal before trying to pull up the heel strap. Once on they hold the foot securely and comfortably, no rubbing at all when properly adjusted.

Comfortable shoe - I spent a long time deciding on these shoes, as they are quite expensive compared to other brands/types in their niche. I finally reconciled the expense and ordered them. After wearing them for a few hours, I am still not convinced I made a good decision. While I consider them sturdy and safer than most (the toe cap alone may be worth the price), they don't seem very well made. They seem a bit flimsy. So the jury is still out.

Wedded to My Feet Bliss - Have had my Newport H2's for about four days now and had to talk sense to myself about NOT wearing them on a business trip to Denver. They are VERY comfortable. Pay attention to the comments about being a half size too small - they are! I normally wear a 12, so had to go up to a 13, which feels fine - not too big. One more thing: I initially wanted the Rich Tea/Black because online the red looks like a bright red. It's not; it's a subdued purpley red. So I opted instead for the Blue/Yellow Fade, which is very cool looking. And of course the people at Zappos have no trouble sending you out another pair, like in the next breath . . . and a hand-written follow-up card several days later. Great business, Zappos.

I wore mine in a wedding! Well, not the wedding itself, but since it was on a beach, I wore them throughout the weekend during rehearsal and the reception. I received many compliments, though probably not for pairing them with a suit. However, my feet stayed comfortable, I think they look great, and best of all, after we got home, I just threw them in the washer. I ordered a half size under my perceived size, and they fit great. Great deal from Zappos!

No chance of stubbing your toes in these sandals - They fit fine except for the sole underneath my right big toe, which curves up where it shouldn't. I'm gradually breaking it in, though. I enjoy the protective caps over the toes because I kick things all day long at work and they save my toes.

I must have tried about 10 different pairs of the women's, going back and forth between sizes and the regular and the H2. Finally ended up with a men's because my feet are long and skinny. The shoes themselves are a little clunky, but super comfortable! No break in period, felt great right away. My boyfriend HATES the way they look (and I admit they aren't pretty) but it's worth it in terms of comfort! :o) Perfect for theme parks where your feet get wet but you want more support and something that will stay on your feet. We walked and stood all around the park and at the end of the day, my legs weren't tired at all and my back felt great! And HIS feet were all wrinkly and waterlogged from being inside sneakers all day, but not mine! Also kayaking/canoeing, perfect especially if you are planning on getting out along the way and hiking a bit. Very satisfactory!

Comfortable - We bought these a half size larger and my husband loves, loves, loves them. Great casual (we live in Florida) and extremely comfortable shoe. We've tried all the other higher end brands, but this one beats them all.

We both got a pair - After I got my pair (women's) I raved about them and my husband also got a pair. They are as light as air and so comfortable you cannot believe it.

A Versatile Sandal - Very nice all around shoe. Recommended!

Shoes - The first pair of shoes was the wrong size, a reorder was sent out immediately. I was very pleased with the customer service I received. In the future I would definitely order from your company again.

This is my second pair of Keen Newport H2's. Living in FL,I spend a lot of time in sandals both in and out of the water. My opinion (for what it's worth) is that these are the best sandals for all around wear you can find. Have tried Teva in the past and feel that these work for me much better. particularly like the toe protection. They wash up well in the washing machine. Overall a 5 star IMHO.

Replacement Sandals - Overall very comfortable and everyone comments on how they like the look. I bought these as replacements for some standard "Birkenstock" style sandals I have worn for ages. But, the kids always want me to run around with them, so I figured I should get something with a back-strap. These work out quite well!

Keen H2 - Great shoe, very comfortable. Only drawback is when wearing without socks, shoe may get some foot odor after a couple days wearing. I wash them with soap and water after each use.

Bought these Keens to take on a trip to Belize where we planned to do hiking, canoeing, and boating. Toe ridge felt a little funny at first (too far forward), but I'm glad I kept them. I wore them the whole time on the trip and they were always comfortable, sturdy, and cooler than socks and sneakers or boots.
