Customer Reviews KEEN Newport H2

Great alternative to a certain more famous sport sandal which my wife has informed me I am no longer allowed to wear. Apparently they became dorky while I was away. Anyways - great shoes, love the fit, love the lightness, love the protection.

Bought these for my husband since he thought his ancient Tevos were still okay. I had the Keen in womens and wanted him to have a great pair too. When they arrived in Zappos fantastic speedy fashion and he tried them on, he was wowed! I purchased them a size larger than he normally wears and they are perfect. He loves them and is thrilled that I got them for him!

This is a great all purpose sandal with siped soles that even make it a deck shoe. This is my third pair and the bright color is different for me. I love them.

Keen sizing is never quite straightforward, nor are my son's always growing feet. I had to exchange them for a different size, after sizing based on Euro sizes. These are great shoes. My first pair lasted eight years before I realized that though they still looked great they did not have any traction any more. It is great that they are washable, as they stink after awhile. They are a good product, and it is nice to find them on sale.

I bought these for my husband. He was happy with them. Fit comfortably. True to size. The only thing they are snug to put on. The back strap is stiff to pull out to slide foot in, but he thinks it should stretch the more he wears them, otherwise made well.

Love these things, very comfortable and great to just kick around in. Absolutely, buy for vacation near water. Block Island is rocky after Sandy (storm) so these were perfect. Normally I ware wide (E) but these fit great. I did have to buy a 1/2 size larger, this I, found, is normal for Keens. Bought some woman's Keens for my wife, also had to be a 1/2 size larger, also a wide foot. Size 8 fit her 7-1/2 foot just right.

1st - Zappos customer service is very customer satisfaction oriented. No worries! My Keen Newport H2's were perfect for Costa Rica! Rain Forest, Zip Line, Pacific Ocean Kyaking, Pool, Hiking, 100% satisfied! Very comfortable! Purchase a 1/2 size larger, perfict fit!

Love 'em! Super comfy, stable while walking. Great traction. Wear them in the lake, hose 'em off good as new. My 2nd pair! The 1st pair is still wearable from 6 years ago!

I've gotten addicted to Keen sandals - these are my 'formal' black sandals. They are extremely comfortable and seemingly indestructible. For whatever reason, Keens fit me perfectly (though they run a little small) and give excellent support. Love these things!

This is my third pair of Keens. This style is comfy from the get go, and I plan to wear them all the time. I really enjoy the color I got, Forest Night/Comfrey/backlit. I will swear by my Keens to anyone who will stand to listen to me rave about them!

The sandals just arrived. My shoe size is 12, but my podiatrist suggested that walking/hiking/trekking/running shoes be a half size larger to allow for expansion. I have been trying to find a sandal that could do double duty while traveling in Europe to avoid bringing two pairs of shoes. These seem to fit the bill. They will work just fine on the canal barge, walking trails and wearing them with dark socks for evenings. Based on comments about their size and the lack of a 12.5, I ordered the 13. I am glad I did. The 13 is more like a 12.5, so that worked. As for comfort I have been walking around in them for a couple of hours; they are comfortable and the arch support seems just right. I also have a high arch and these fit it nicely. I like the toe protection. Overall I do like these sandals. Last year while walking across Spain I would slip into [Alligator named product] at the end of the day. Those were comfortable after several grueling hours of walking, but the Keens give me a more secure feeling.

Love these shoes. They are very comfortable right out of the box. Mine were a tiny bit on the small side. By that I mean that once on my foot there is little slack to adjust the laces tighter. Front to back the fit is perfect so maybe my foot is just a little bigger than normal.

I discovered the Keen Newport H2 prior to moving to Taiwan to teach. I thought they were a nice looking sandal. Little did I know that I would wear these shoes daily for 50 of the next 52 weeks in Taiwan while at work, biking (no car), and hiking. I continued to wear them back home in the States on a daily basis for another 8 months. This is a solid, good looking, multi-purpose sandal. Just replaced them with an identical pair (why change?) from Zappos. Great price and timely shipping.

Love these shoes! Usually take a EE width but these were D width and they feel great.

Great fit, true to size, and arch is good. Taking them on a hiking vacation to Zion soon; will let you know how they perform.

This is my fourth pair of Keens. I am on my feet all day long and am constantly going. The support they offer is great and working in a kitchen they hold up well to all the stress!

This is my husband's third pair of Newports. They are particularly great these days as he has developed dementia and has difficulty with his shoes but with the Newport he gets the support and stability he needs and can wear them year round with socks and they are easy on and off with no laces or ties. They have been a great solution.

All I can say is that the Newport H2 is one of the most comfortable shoes of ANY kind I've ever worn. I'm 62 years old and I've worn a lot of shoes in my life. These are truly remarkable. I bought mine last summer and they have not only held up great, but they are perfect for my feet...just the right arch support, just the right level of cushioning, and they look great...even on an old guy like me. I can't imagine ever buying a different brand/style of sandal again.

Once I was able to get them on they were very comfortable. I think getting a larger size might be too much of a change to accommodate the hump on my left foot due to a diving accident.

This is my second pair of Newport H2's this year which should tell you how I feel about them. I was hoping to be in the 60% that felt they were true to size, but unfortunately they run 1/2 a size small for me, too. As far as I'm concerned, Keen makes the best sandals (and some shoes), and are the only ones I will buy henceforth, forthwith, and from now on.

My husband hates sandals on men, but we recently moved to Florida, and he needed some air on his feet! He reluctantly agreed to try these shoes. He loves them. He still mostly wears sneakers, but he wears these to the beach, on walks, and for long drives in the heat, and he is happy with them. It's amazing, and it's healthier in this heat!
