Customer Reviews KEEN Newport H2

Newport H2 - I am a large man 280 lbs I have a size 11 4E width shoe. I was apprehensive ordering his. Not to worry. With the method of tightening the laces this fits me perfectly. I recommend this shoe for all width's. It will fit. Thank you Keen.

Great shoes, Great service - I love the shoes!! But love Zappos more. Best web purchase I have ever made.

Keen Newport H2 - I have had these shoes for nearly 3 weeks and love them - have worn them everyday since they arrived! Perfect fit, comfort, and style. Anyone who notices them asks me what they are and where I got them - I simply reply "Zappos."

Great sandal! This sandal is very comfortable with excellent arch support and finally protection for my toes!

My husband loves these shoes!

Best Boat Shoes EVER! When the shoes were ordered I expected to get a leather upper but received a nylon material and actually prefer this. I have used them in kayaking situations that are quite wet and they still look new after much use. They stay on during extreme situations! These shoes fit perfectly and had no wearing in needed. Comfort from the beginning! I highly recommend these to anyone looking for comfort, quality, and versatility in a shoe. I wear them all the time, not just for play!

Great all purpose shoe - You can use this shoe for anything...hiking, jogging, kayaking, or just hanging around the house. These sandals fit very snug. I will be using them when I go white water rafting during my trip to the Smoky Mountain National Park.

A Great Gift - I ordered these for my husband after he noted liking a friend's pair. They were true to size and seemed to require little breaking in - considering he took them out of the box, put them on and didn't take them off for two days. And best of all - Zappos.com was great - the shoes arrived in one day!

Great Shoe, Very comfortable - The first day I wore these, I thought my feet were sweating a lot. I tend to prefer a more open show. That seem to go away after a day or two. Wear it every day since.

great - best sandels I HAVE EVER WORN

Great - best sandals I HAVE EVER WORN!!

Fantastic shoes!!!!! I work on my feet all day and the first time I put them on I wore them for 8 hours.

Great find! My cousin told me about the Keen Newport when she found out I needed a good pair of shoes to wear on an Africa trip. She and some fellow marathon runners had all ordered the same shoe for casual wear during their recent Africa trip. I was pleasantly surprised to get these versatile shoes. Not only did the shoes work out well in Africa (even the mud washes off well in the washing machine), but now that I am home, I can't wear them enough. I even ordered a pair for my finicky husband, who loves them as well.

Great working shoe - I am a Master Scuba Diving Trainer, on the boat, hauling tanks etc...and these shoes really hold up while offering me toe protection as well as comfort.

Great Shoe - This has been one of the best sandals I have ever purchased. As someone who always has preferred more total foot coverage, this has been a great design to discover. It fits very snugly, without feeling too restrictive. My only gripe with this shoe is the footbed has lateral grooves underneath your feet, to assist in draining. These grooves love to gather sand and small stones, in the water and out. If you don't pay attention to this, especially out of the water, a hot spot can quickly develop. Fortunately, in the water, a quick swish of your foot will flush this out.

Pros and Cons - For walking around Magic Mountain or Disneyland I give these a 10+. These shoes let your feet breath and they look modern and masculine. Masculine because most sandals can't help but look feminine. For my office job (casual) I rate these a 4 on a scale of 10. While I sit still in the office my feet sweat in these (not wearing socks) and I felt uncomfortable. Even in a cool office.

Excellent! These are by far the best pair of shoes I've ever owned. Comfortable, Good Looking and Versatile. They do well on the trail and on the street. Once again I am impressed not only by the shoe, but Zappos as well.

Sea Turtle Man - I work at the Boston Aquarium, where floors are slick, treacherous, and at times, smelly. These Keens give me secure footing and I hose them down after work to leave that fishy smell behind. I wear them all the time! Great shoe!

Kewel Keens - The color is awesome. They suffice as a sport shoe, yet can be worn to work in an office on casual days.

The best sandals ever! I broke my leg in Dec. 2004. I bought my Keen's Newport H2 in June and I only take them off when I go to sleep!! Excellent support and comfort.

My story is like the founder of Zappos - I am an REI member and decided to get a pair of these after seeing they might fill the bill of a good watersports, casual, All-around-town shoe. When I went to REI I wanted the Newport H2 in a 12, but they didn't have it, only the Newport in a 11.5 and a 12. The 11.5 fit better than the 12, but had a manufacturing defect in that the strap spacing was not symmetrical from the left shoe to the right and thus the fit was different from one foot to the other. So I took them back to REI. They didn't have another 11.5 so I took the 12, but they still didn't have the H2. I took the 12s home and within an hour of wearing them I had a cramp in my foot due to the Newport 12 (not the H2) not fitting my foot correctly, so I took them back. At this point I had fit and tried every Keen's sandal in stock that REI had and hit a dead end. Quite by accident I found Zappos and decided that their free shipping and free return shipping coupled with the chance that they had in stock what I wanted was worth giving them a try. My Newport H2s arrived in 2 days and fit perfectly. They just work! The experience was so pleasant in fact that my wife ordered a pair of Keen's in a different style. We ordered last night and they are being delivered today. That's less than 24 hours! It doesn't get better than this. Thanks Zappos!

The best ever - Kudos to the Zappos team! I placed my order online and had it in just a little more then 24 hrs. That's awesome ! The Keen Newport H2s I got are the most comfortable, true to size sandals I've ever owned. I live on the southeast coast and walk my dogs on the beach alot and these sandals are absolutely perfect. Keep up the good work.

Great Investment - I have always been a Teva person, but I have been converted. These are the best. I now use them for everything, boating, fishing and even working out.
