Customer Reviews KEEN Newport H2

This model is OK. I had a pair of Keens previously that were lighter and I liked better. This model has a very thick sole which is comfortable but heavy.

These shoes are really comfortable. I got the size I normally wear and they did not fit correctly. The part where your ankle is held in was too tight. Especially when they are already wet. So make sure you get a size bigger. Or if Keen is looking go ahead and fix that. lol Other than that perfect water shoe!

After several months, great fit. Run small. Width fine. Triple black...awesome day or night, work or play.

This is the third pair of Keene sport shoes I've owned over the past 8 years. They typically last for 3 years before the sole wears down. I wear them just about every day during the spring-summer months. Comfortable, weather restistant and arch-supporting. They're just great!

Yes! I'm on my fourth pair of the Newport H2 Sandal!!! Very supportive and grippy sole, I always order a size 8.5 and they fit perfect every time! You can wear them in the snow too, just wear a wool sock! I also have the Braddock steel toe boot size 8.5 and the soft toe Mt Vernon in a size 8.5 too. They are all great fits!!!!!

These are essentially sneakers without the mesh between the straps. They are probably the most comfortable footwear I have ever had. I find that I can hike in them. If my feet get wet, they dry quickly. Even on long walks, they give enough support that my knees don't hurt. You need to try them on though. Bought them in Freeport. If I had bought them online, my estimated 9 1/2s would have been too small. The 10s I bought are just right.

Ive worn Newport H2 and Venice sandals for decades. I was lucky to snag a pair of the latest Venice sandals as they arent available (again). But I also wanted to get a new pair of Newports to replace my old pairs that can still be worn but are pretty ragged. Unfortunately this was the first pair of Keens that I had to make a decision as to whether to return them or not. I am returning them. They have changed the design and these are narrower than all my previous pairs. If youre still committed you can go up a half size or more as the product description suggests. That actually is the first clue that the design is different, never before have they had to display that suggestion. My problem however is that I have worn Newports into the fall and winter with warm socks. There was plenty of room in the previous versions to accommodate this without feeling cramped. I dont believe a half size up would have helped with this re-design. I am disappointed as for many years Keens were the only footwear I wore with the Newport being my primary shoe of choice.

I got my first pair over 15 years ago. An outdoor program I was part of required closed toe shoes so I got some Keen sandals. I used them hiking, repelling, rafting and even wore them to work on casual days. I worked them hard and wore them out. Last month I got a new pair and I just finished 5 days on Mount Rainier. I felt sure footed and stable on every trail I hiked. I love these!

I am happy with these sandals they hold up and protect my toes awesome sandals and sturdy thanks

I have been a Keen fan for years and have many pairs of shoes, this one is the first that was just bad. The fabric frayed from day one, the elastic pulled away from the fabric after a couple of weeks, then Sunday, the sole pulled apart from the straps and became unwearable. This was all over the the course of 2 months of normal indoor wear. I love the look and comfort of this shoe, but it doesn't hold up.

The strongest, most comfortable water sandal made

I bought these a few years ago. A wonderful sandal for hiking but then the back strap stitching fell out of it -- both feet on both sides! Fortunately LL Bean honored the warranty due to product quality and I bought a different style.
