Superior Water Sandal -
I live on the water and need a tough, comfortable sandal for wading and swimming, fishing, and boating. It needs to attach to the foot so as to stay on in mud and swift water, and have a non-marking non-skid sole. I have tried Tevas (perfect in concept but uncomfortable and too much trouble to get on and off) and Chacos (same problems plus too heavy), and others. I finally tried this Keen's Newport H2, and I pronounce it ideal. It is light, comfortable, stays on, and is practically a slip-on. (Just give the rear loop a pull to get into it.) It not only meets all of my water-use criteria, but it serves well for walking and hanging about. And while not exactly beautiful, it looks fine (and maybe a little cool) for casual wear.

Great sandals -
Wonderful sandals. I really like the look and appreciate that Keen finally is producing them in a reddish color for men. I like the covered toe and they are comfortable. I walked a couple of miles in them today and will need to build calluses in a couple of new spots.

Excellent sandal with an outstanding footbed. Quality and style right out of the box, and quick hassle-free delivery as always. Thanks Keen & Zappos.

More like a cult and less like the clan...
So here in the great Pacific Northwest it seems like you are born with a pair of these on your feet... I myself being from the South was used to barefeet and wearing flip-flops... I wasn't peer pressured into these by any means, and after a summer in a "fake Keen", let me just say that these live up to the hype... the grip is great, the fit is perfect and even though we just got our two days of spring before it went back to winter, I got to say that the sandals were fairly warm on even a brisk day... my vegan friends like the no leather option this pair also.

Just bought a pair of Newport H2 to replace a great pair of Nike sandals. They fit very comfortably which I expected after I bought a pair of Keen waterproof Bandon Boots last fall. I wore the boots to work all winter and they kept my feet warm, dry, and comfortable. The soles are holding up well and the leather looks brand new.

I bought these shoes specifically to go on a trip to the Galapagos Islands where I thought I would need water shoes for getting off rubber dinghies. Little did I know how perfect these shoes would be for much more than I expected. Not only were they the perfect water shoes, but I couldn't believe how they gripped rocks when climbing up steep and rocky hiking trails. They handled everything and were very comfortable. The toe guard gives you great protection. I saw no downside at all in the shoes. Yes, some sand can get in the shoe, but what do you expect, they are open sandals. Yes, they take some time to dry, but are no problem to put back on even when wet. After 10 days of extreme use, these shoes look like they just came out of the box. Buy these shoes if you want a very flexible product for all kinds of terrain and water. By the way, the fit was also perfect right out of the box in my normal size.

This is my second pair of Keens. I love them and cannot live without them. I wear them everywhere, including work. I ordered them at 7pm and by 10am the NEXT morning they were at my door. The FREE 1 day shipping works! I was amazed. Make sure to get your Keens a 1/2 size BIGGER than what you normally wear. They are made small. I wear a 10 and a 10.5 fits perfectly. I got the cool looking red ones and am ordering a powder blue pair today.

I purchase these for a cruise I am going on in April. I went to my local LLBean store to see if I could buy them there, They had the sandals, but not the color I wanted. I did however try them on. you do need to go up a half size. The associate was great and very attentive. He called the online store to ensure I got my sandals, he offered free shipping, but I use my LLBean card so it does not matter. I received the sandals in about 2 days. Wow! that was fast. I wore them around the house all night, felt like slippers. I will see how they are on the beaches, other wet surfaces, and in the water. Very please with the look and comfort! So far worth the $.

Zappos Rocks!
The shoes are fabulous and were just what we were looking for on a sailing trip. Comfort from the minute they were put on and look great casual or semi casual. And as usual Zappos out did themselves by getting them here in ONE day, we were in a rush on this one but I wasn't worried as this is the norm here! Thank you Zappos!

Best sandal in the world -
I live in the tropics and wear sandals all year long. I have been a big fan of Mephisto sandals which are really excellent for your feet BUT they lack a crucial feature that the keen sandals have. When walking with the Mephistos, I have several times tripped and fallen and this has never happened with Keene sandals because those crafty designers made the sole (where the rubber meets the road), wider than your foot making the Keene sandals true off road footwear. The Mephisto sole is the same width as the foot and is rounded at the bottom. Kudos.

Recently moved to Hawaii and needed a sturdy sandal/ water shoe to get around in. These are great right out of the box. I was out yesterday on the North Shore of Oahu with them. I could barely feel the jagged coral I was walking around on because of the sole construction. THey are very light though. I also think they give you a lot better protection than some other simpler sandals. Great buy.

Customer service was wonderful in sending new size. Shoes are very comfortable and am breaking them in now for a boating/hiking trip later. Better fit is to order shoe a 1/2 size larger than your normal size.

Overall very comfortable and good looks. They are true to size, just the heel strap has no give (provides for a secure sandal).

Great Sandal -
This is my second pair and they are fantastic! They are goofy looking, but feel and wear great and protect the toes. That is what I need to do in my job and they are perfect for that. I wear them every day and they last. The ability to throw them into the washer is also great, no more stinky shoes and feet.

Keen Newport H2 water shoes -
I ordered a pair of Keen Newport H2 water shoes to wear when I walk on the beach--about 12 miles a week. I developed a bad case of plantar fasciitis, and so I can't walk barefoot at the beach anymore. These Keens have been great. They are comfortable but offer lots of needed support. They take abuse from saltwater and sand with no problem. When I get home, I rinse them off and sit them out to dry, and in about 24 hours, they are ready to go. I wish I had discovered them years ago.

Keen sandals have a look all their own, with that distinctive wrapped toe, but the functionality of it is superb. These are super comfortable sandals that work well for just about anything you can dish out. They are great even when you wear them all day for bopping about town or at camp. I have a pair and both of my older children have them (adult sizes). I can't imagine not having these around. As soon as the weather warms up, they are the shoe of choice around here, and they don't come off until fall rolls around. I like the fact that they can get wet yet dry off fast and are also speedy to get on/off, the kids like the fact that they can be worn all day and still be comfortable. I'll also add here that they are extremely durable. The Vans and Rocket Dogs that we own are lucky to last more than a month, but the Keens look like new despite 5 months of heavy wear. I can highly recommend this product!

Keen H2 -
This is the second pair of shoes I have ordered from Zappos in recent weeks. I am currently deployed overseas and their service has been outstanding. The Keen Newport H2 sandals are awesome and very comfortable. I ordered them for my R&R trip. I would recommend this sandal to all who need a durable, waterproof, and good looking sandal that also protects your toes.

Great Comfort -
When I first received my Keen Newport H2 shoes, my impression was that they were going to be too small. I normally do not wear strapped sandals. However, I finally got them on, a little tight fit at first, and wore them for a couple of hours. From then on, I was hooked. They are the most comfortable sandals I have ever worn. I lived aboard a boat for a couple of years and wish I had a pair then. Not only would I have saved a few broken toes, but would been comfortable and safe at the same time. The treads on the sandals are exceptionally well made and provide outstanding traction, even around slippery surfaces. I would highly recommend these specific shoes to anyone living on or around the water. I have found my water shoes. That's my story and I am sticking to it. Thank you Zappos for your outstanding response and assistance in acquiring a great pair of shoes.

Keen Newport H2 -
I bought these for my husband and myself after recently purchasing a camp assessable only by boat. Our feet are either in water or rugged terrain and the shoe suits both wonderfully. They are snug enough so our feet are not slipping in the shoe, airy enough for water to drain out. On occasion it has taken a long time for the shoe to dry while still wearing, but still is not uncomfortable. Will definitely purchase another pair and from ZAPPOS! Thank you!

They actually fit!
I almost didn't order these because I have a narrow heel, and didn't figure they would fit without slipping. Wrong! They actually fit great, and I am quite happy with them. Good quality and a nice summer time addition.

Newport H2 -
This is my second pair of Newport H2s, and I really love the shoes. I wore them throughout my vacation in Europe this summer and they were comfortable to wear all day, with no blisters, etc.
There are a few things that you should know about these shoes, based on my experience:
- They stretch after a few days of wear. If, when you first try them on, they feel a bit tight, they will loosen up very comfortably in no time
- Beyond that, there is little "breaking in" for these shoes - they are comfortable from day one.
- One issue - they can get a bit stinky if you wear them very often in sweaty weather, but they are machine washable, so that takes care of that problem.
