Customer Reviews KEEN Newport H2

I was looking for a new pair of waterproof sandals to replace my aging Teva sandals. I decided to try Keens. The look and color of this model attracted me so I tried them on in a shoe store first to get a sense of size. It definitely felt a bit on the small side. They didn't have a larger half size nor the orange color at the store so I came to Zappos. I received the shoes quickly and put them to use immediately on a trip to the beach. The shoes fit great and are very comfortable. I took them through sand and rain, sprayed them down with a hose to clean them daily, wore them around town, did some light jogging and generally used them all week. I am thoroughly satisfied by these sandals and highly recommend them.

These have been great. I have found them to be comfortable and fit well. This is my second pair of Keens but my first sandal. I have only had them a few weeks so I cannot comment on durability. I have had some slight pressure points after wearing all day but I expect that to moderate over time.

My husband loves these shoes. They run fairly accurate to size, and come in a variety of colors. Out-of-box comfort and can be cinched snug. You can wear them in water, although I wouldn't suggest doing it in lake water as they can get a tad smelly!

Having owned a pair of Newports in the past, and loved them, I switched to the H2s for a change. I can honestly say the H2s seem to be a bit more comfortable and versatile. The synthetic material is actually a cooler sandal in the extreme heat and dry quicker than the original leather uppers of the Newports. They are both great sandals, but I have become partial to the H2s.

I bought these for my husband and he loves them. He is not a sandal-wearer, but these are the exception. He will wear them at home, on the boat, on the dock, in the woods. These are a great summer shoe.

I am in my 30s and have been embarrassed to wear sandals since my early teens when one of my toenails started looking bad from various injuries/conditions. For the first time in nearly 20 years I can walk around in style without regular shoes on in the summer time! These sandals were comfortable the second I put them on. I have always been reluctant to try these because I thought my already-painful toenails would somehow rub against the front of the shoe, but there is absolutely no rubbing going on. Greatest purchase yet from Zappos!

What a great sandal. This is my first experience wearing Keens and I will never look back now. They are extremely comfortable, very durable and they look great, too. I wear my Keens for everything, from walking, swimming, boating, and hiking. I cannot say enough great things about these sandals.

A great pair of casual shoes and rafting shoes. They are sturdy, comfortable, practical, and dry very quickly. I would buy them again in a heartbeat.

Bought these for my husband for a camping/light hiking sandal. A little narrow but overall a great rugged sandal. Plus, you cannot beat Zappos customer service!

I love these sandals. I've worn them fishing, hiking. and casual wear. They are very comfortable and a great value. If I'm off for the day I'm going barefoot or wearing my Keen Newport H2. I will be ordering a pair for my wife. Love 'em

My first Keens, back when they were just starting out, were the regular leather Newports. I loved them then and I love them now. My one complaint is that for sandals they could actually be pretty hot and heavy. When I saw these H2 version I had to try them. The styling and fit is the same as the leather, but the nylon dries very quickly, is much lighter and cooler. Huge thumbs up. Love the the Newport H2!

As a college student who walks miles each day eschewing a car, I can say that these shoes arrived quickly and were super comfortable the minute I put them on!

Recommended to me by my son, I purchased my Newport H2s at the last minute on a Saturday. I was leaving on a 3 week vacation the following Friday. Was given free expedited shipping for Tuesday - received them on Monday I wore them every day for 3 weeks! They are the most comfortable shoes I've had in years!

Perfect shoe for Hawaii...snorkeled, including some coral close encounters. No break-in period for absolute comfort. Diamond Head first day without any barking dogs. Love them without aftershock. Arch support was never thought of.

This is my husband's second pair of H2's. We got them so he'd have some to wear while the others were in the laundry. He loves them that much. And yes, you can just toss them in the washer. They definitely run a bit short, so order 1/2 size bigger than normal to save yourself the hassle of an exchange.

2nd pair. I love them. I needed 1/2 size bigger than regular shoe.

Very quality shoe. These can be washed and they look as good as new. They wear super well.
