This is my favorite "shandal." Unlike others I've owned it's amazingly comfortable: the fit is perfect, and the lining is soft: nothing to pinch or scratch bare feet. My only nitpick is the large toe bumper that makes it look sort of like a clog, but extra toe protection is a great thing for off-road use. So, I'm extremely happy.

The Keen Newport H2 fit was slightly small so I went 1/2 size up, especially since I sometimes wear light socks. The arch was v. good and the best of 4 or 5 other sandals I tried.

I have never had good luck with sandals, maybe it's because the exposure of my toes? But I needed something for a family canoe trip, so I ordered these, because of Zappos' return policy; it makes it easier if I didn't like them. Zappos' fast ships rocks! These sandals are comfortable, look nice enough to wear to work. Other than the price tag, I like these sandals.

Within two weeks of buying these shoes, I had walked the streets of Washington, DC in the heat, climbed the basalt trails of the Columbia River Gorge, and waded lakes and streams of central Oregon. One day I waded in the morning and went to dinner in them that evening. They are comfortable, versatile, and give great support for your feet. And they dry thoroughly and quickly. I am very pleased so far.

Bought these expecting to use them as a knock around the cottage pair of sandals. Instead, I ended up getting roped into an 8 mile hike through uncharted trails, mud bogs, rocks, rotten logs and inclines steep enough to make my ankles burns. But these sandals held up like a champ and after a rinse in the lake, they looked good as new. I couldn't be happier with them.

I was skeptical about these but bought them to replace Crocs (which I can't bring myself to wear anymore). They are not the best looking shoes but are a definite upgrade, are more comfortable, more substantial and fit much better. I have already gotten a lot of wear out of them working in the yard, etc.

I love these things, what more can I say. I ware them most of the time, VERY comfortable. Normally, I ware a 10E but the 10-1/2Ds fit perfectly so I would say they may run a 1/4 to a 1/2 size smaller. Haven't warn them in the water yet, in fact, the rocky beaches at Block Island made me buy these as soon as I got home I would recommend these to a friend.

I am a female with a wide foot and have ordered a men's size 7 in the past, as I normally wear a women's size 9. This particular style felt a bit more snug than others I have owned. The Keen brand is my best bet for support and comfort.

I've had several pairs of Keens sandals. I love their styles, and versatility, but have had problems recently with the stitching at the heel strap area. This has occurred on my 2 most recent purchases, within months of buying them. As a result, I've returned both pair & am currently sandal-less for the summer, as I haven't found an adequate replacement. I believe it would be helpful if Zappos included a Durability review section, as the 3 categories don't address this most critical element.

These are the best. I've had 3 other pairs of Keen sandals, some too heavy, others not right. These are best for support and total weight. Fit true to size. Just the best.

These are very nice shoes. Based on the recommendations of others, I bought half a size larger and they fit perfectly. With no break in period, I wore them hiking in the southwest desert and northwest mountains with absolutely no problem. I own other Keen shoes so I should not have been surprised since every pair that I have worn has always been a quality product and caused no problems. I would highly recommend these shoes.

These shoes have a lot of grip and protect the toes. They breathe really well and work great for both in-the-water activities (like boating, canoeing, and cliff-diving), other adventures (like hiking and cycling), and every-day things (like running errands). Really great shoe.

I wore these all day while running errands and not one blister. The best I have ever had. They feel like they are part of your body. Well worth the money.

I had been searching for inexpensive sandals for months. I was at a mall in NJ and popped into the LL Bean store there assuming my string of disappointments would continue. I tried on the Bean sandals that are similar to these Keens and while the price was right the fit was just OK so I decided to pass. I was going to leave the store but at the last second I asked to try on the Keens and I am so glad I did. As soon as I put my foot into one of them I knew I was going to make the purchase. I have flat, wide feet and these fit me absolutely perfectly. They seemed a bit pricey at first but you really can't put a price on good footwear so that thought left my mind almost immediately. I think I paid $89 at the store so if you have a Bean store nearby I suggest you go there first. In all honesty though if these sandals last as long as I think they will the extra $11 is trivial.
I had two minor conerns but not enough to warrant taking away a full star:
1) I was afraid they'd be sweaty. So far I've worn them a handful of times around town for a few hours at a time with minimal sweating so that's no longer a concern.
2) I am a little concerned that the rear strap will eventually wear out since you have to give the loop on the back a decent pull to get it up onto your heel. I don't think it'll be a problem any time soon but that seems to be the one weak point in the sandal's design. Many other designs use Velcro which would allow for more adjustments but doesn't look as nice and also wears out. It's a trade-off.
All-in-all I'd say this is a top-notch sandal and seemingly worth the money. I'll be heading to the beach in a few weeks where I'll really be able to test them out but I don't anticipate any problems whatsoever.

These shoes are great! I recently bought them and wore them on a 3-week European trip. They are probably the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. The best thing is that they go anywhere! I wore them on the streets of Paris and Amsterdam, biking, kayaking in the Ardeche, they were just perfect for traveling. Highly recommended.

I bought these for my husband and he loves them. He is so tender-footed that he doesn't like to go bare-foot when he swims. So, I bought these for him so he can be more comfortable when we make a trip to the lakes, rivers, and mountain streams. They work perfectly if you want to wear them hiking, swimming, or for general use.

These shoes were a gift for my husband.They are well worth the price! Fit well right out of the box. Comfortable yet supportive to hike in. Also good for walking in water. Good looking enough to wear out and about!

Great shoe/sandal. It exceeded my expectations. Comfortable and well built, its design keeps pebbles and debris from entering the shoe much better than expected. Feet stay dry walking through wet grass. I can walk in the water and get on my kayak, be out on the water all morning and my feet are protected and comfortable. It does take a day or two to get used to wearing them and they seem a bit heavy at first but all in all they are winners and I'll be buying more of these soon.

These sandals are the most comfortable sandals I've ever owned. I have a bad back and need good arch support and these give me the support I need. They are well made and durable.

Easy shopping. Arrived quickly. I liked that you can make them wider or tighten up to be narrower.

I have been purchasing Keens since they first came out. The creators parents have been good friends. We are avid boaters and these have been perfect. The H2 was perfect for me as I instructed young sailors in Optis requiring me to be in the water most of the day for a week long camp. Love the shoes, great fit and no complaints

These sandals are comfortable on a walk. I can walk my dogs 2 miles with no discomfort. I especially like the closed toe. The fastener works well making the sandal easy to put on and take off. I have worn them a lot and plan on taking them on a trip to the UK. I would definitely recommend them for active use.

Very happy with the Keen's. Have another brand used for less than a year, and the soles are falling apart. Better support, fit, and cushioning in these. Will keep this pair up North and get another pair for our home in Florida. My wife now wants a pair!

My husband ordered these for our trip to Disney World. He ended up wearing them everyday and for a man who doesn't say much, he raved about them. They are comfortable, dry quickly when wet, did not cause any blisters, even after our very long days! Our kids wear the children's version and now my husband says I have to pick up a pair! Highly recommend!
