Customer Reviews KEEN Newport H2 Sandal Wide

I bought these shoes as boat shoes. My boat has a white deck and is marked some times by the shoes, which is disappointing. My Sperry Topsiders do a better job of leaving no marks. I have had the shoes now for two weeks. I wore the shoes this weekend while in New York City. After 20 blocks of walking without socks, I developed small blisters on the top of the large knuckle on my both big toes. Bandaids over the blisters allowed me to continue walking. I really do love the shoes, hate the blisters. My feet get dirty when walking in a dusty area, which is not surprising since they are not closed shoes. I loved the fact that I didn't stub my toes on anything while walking in NYC even though I certainly hit a number of things while walking. That was one thing I don't like about my Chacos. I would buy again, very nice shoes. I would have given 5 stars if I had gotten no blisters this weekend. Oh, don't expect to be able to slide them shoes on like Sperry Topsiders. You have to bend over and pull the back up behind your heel to get them on.

Fit great. Very durable sandal

Purchased to replace a similar pair that lasted over 10 years of HARD use. They've improved the ergonomics so these feel more comfortable and supportive. Keen is impossible to beat for durability!

Good fit, great feel. Second pair of these. Got the first pair when they were first introduced (more than 7) years ago. The bottoms finally separated. Great summer water sports shoe for folks who like to have some toe protection and support. Zappos as always, great selection, fast shipping (one day) and great customer support. Thanks!

Bought in black for my hubby and he has remarked several times how comfortable these are and how much he likes them.

These are super comfortable! My wife swears by them and I finally bought a pair. Just break them in slowly, I took mine out for a full day of walking at a festival and I wish that I hadn’t.

My 14 year old has been wearing Keen Newport H2s since he could walk. I ordered his first pair in "adult" size and was bummed to realize that they don't have the velcro strap over the top of the foot as the youth model does. He tried it out but didn't like slipping on the adult sandal - it felt too restrictive and tight for him (sensory issues).

Keen’s toe box is more narrow than my previous Newport H2 purchased over 9 years ago. I have worm them in Winter w/wool socks and they are fine. However unless I go a full size up (13 to 14), I think they might be tight in toe box.

My husband loves his new Keen Newport H2 shoes. It's the first time he's worn Keens and he says their great.

My son has pretty thin feet and he hated these because they are so heavy and bulky. They fit him just fine, but he said he felt like he was wearing bricks on his feet. I agree--I can't wear this style Keen either (however, my husband with very thick feet love his Newport H2). Going to have to try something else.

I knew the keens ran small, so I ordered the next size up and that worked for me! Nice looking sandals, good arch support. my last pair wore out after 15 years. Based on other reviews elsewhere quality seems to have slipped a bit but I’m hoping for the best!

Was going to keep these but after trying some Merrill sandals am returning the Keen. They are bit bulky and heavier than all the other sandals I've tried - about 1/2 dozen different brands / styles at this point. Decent shoe, I just find the Merrills more comfortable.

The Keen Newport H2 really is an outstanding sandal. If you're looking for a sandal that you can wear every day, all day, everywhere, including in the water, you should check these out. That being said, these were not for me. I was looking for water sandals strictly for salt water and beaches. These were too heavy duty for that purpose, but I found exactly what I was looking for in the Keen Clearwater CNX.

A great looking shoe that feels super comfortable. I's use to wearing open sandals, so it has taken a while to get used to the look. Love the shoes and would buy them again.

I wear a woman's 9 and was troubled with the sizing because I wanted a color (black) in the Men's size. Still have to do some returns, but the Men's size 8 worked out well for me. Hope this helps someone, as the size charts didn't fully help. My daughter is about the same size and found the 8.5 more comfortable. Decent width and some toe room for biking/hiking.

Had to exchange for half size larger.

Bought these to replace an older pair of Newports in leather. I like the look of these. They are also molded a little different than the old pair...seems like they have a little better arch support with the H2 vs the old Newports. They feel substantial when you walk in them. I like them but feel like Im between two sizes 12 or 13...thinking I may go down to 12, but either way I think these are going with me on my trip to Zion.

LOVE love love these. These are my third pair over the years. Highly recommended.

My husband bought these sandals and loves them. He read the reviews and thus ordered a full size larger than his usual. The fit is perfect. These are sturdy, comfortable sandals that are perfect for active wear.

I normally wear size 11 and these size 11 fit perfectly. Delivery was one business day. Very pleased.

This is my third pair of Newport H2 since Keen came on the market. My second pair were more narrow and I even went up a size. Looking at my latest pair there is a definite narrowing of the toe box. Is this to cater to the fashion conscious who think they are too boxy? I bought Keen because they allowed my feet to be in a comfortable position, my toes to splay while walking and because of their unique look. Is this a trend? What is going on Keen?! Zappos on the other hand is reliable and great!

I ordered both the 10.5 and 11 (my walking sneakers are size 11 due to needing to use custom orthotics), and wound up keeping the 10.5. The smaller size are a bit snug to put on, but the larger size were like flip flops and when I walked, my heel came out of them. Since I won't be wearing socks with them, I kept the smaller size, which is what my foot actually measures. These seem to have nice arch support, which I need.

These are very comfortable ! I have had alot of foot problems, and these are very comfortable. I am in the South and Summers here are very Hot. These Sandals do Wonderfully. I received these 1 week ago, and have worn them every day ( after work, and all day on weekends) The style is great in taht it allows your feet to breathe, and still very comfortable. They are so comfortable I plan on wearing them on an international trip next Summer. I read other reviews saying they were them on a 22 hour flight, and they did great.

My husband has two pairs, one for our side work. He just got a new pair to wear for summer and beach vacations., He’s been wearing them for years. They are durable. We just his fourth pair in about 15 years.
