Customer Reviews KEEN Newport H2

This is the second pair that I have bought for my husband and he loves them. His first pair he had for over 10 years and they are still in decent condition. He loves the arch support and durability.

Okay, so the color is a bit on the loud side; living in Florida requires a summer shade of Orange. I ordered 2 styles in size 13 (I get my money's worth) the Newport 2 and the Clearwater. For me, the Newport 2 was a better fit and just felt right. For the past 2 weeks they have been on my feet and no issues. Saddles are comfy, well made and Zappos deserves credit for their great customer service and sales support.

I love these sandals! I had the exact same color and style for 6 years of near-constant spring and summer wear before the soles finally wore down flat. The rest of the sandal was still completely comfortable and useable, but I decided to replace 'em to get back that traction. I'm expecting another 6 years of comfort at least!

I owned another pair of keens that I've worn so much that I can't tell the model specific that they were. I ordered these in (12)= my standard shoe size and they were tight. I had hoped there was a (12.5)offered. Instead with Zappos free ship, I took a chance on (13), expecting them to be too large. They are not, and if there was a (13.5) I'd have sent these back too. I love the color. They look very similar to the brown ones I've owned. I am still hopeful that maybe they will stretch some with break in.... But I've worn them 20+ hours now and they are not getting more comfortable. And there's no way I could wear them with socks/ winter. So I'm sad about these, but now also confused to try other Keens without going somewhere to try them on...and that's always a PITA, finding a brick and mortar store, that HAS multiple shoes and multiple sizes around 12.

More attractive footbed shape than the Newport. The gray blue colors are beautiful. Can be dressier as well. Husband loves these.

I really like these shoes. I'm walking 4-5 miles per day through Europe and these shoes are very comfortable and breathable while keeping more dust and dirt out than a regular sandal. Nothing is worse than hot, sweaty feet and I feel pretty cool in these all day. I'm officially a 10.5 very wide EEEE. I ordered both the 10.5 and 11 from Zappos. The 10.5 fit but I elected to go with an 11, which also fit comfortably and has worked great.

Zappos Service is the best I have ever found. Everything from start to finish is done to make it better for the customer. Buy from Zappos and you are safe!

Comfortable, durable sport sandal. Bought these for my teenage son who dislikes all sandals, but wears and likes this one. He's had problems with his toes and these are great as the toe is protected. I've had a pair in the past and liked everything about them but the wide look on my feet. Doesn't bother my son, though. :)

I had been eyeing Keen Newports for a couple of years. Then I saw a few negative reviews, all about the stitching coming loose quickly. I contacted Keen, and they told me they had addressed the issue. I finally took a chance and bought a pair. I'm glad I did. They felt very comfortable as soon as I tried them. So far there has been no loose stitching, after wearing them about 20 times in the past 3 weeks. The closed toe reminds me of clogs, which I don't find very stylish, but I still like the overall look, and the comfort more than makes up for any minor cosmetic deficiency. I would recommend these.

I'm an amputee that wears a prosthetic leg. I need fairly flat bottom shoes with good support. These sandals are light and have very good support. Very comfortable too.

I bought these based on a recommendation of a friend and to replace an old pair of Teva sandals. I love my Teva's but my wife says they look old fashioned so I bought these for a trip to Cozumel. They are absolutely terrible in the sand. It packs into the front of the shoe and becomes uncomfortable within 20 steps. To get the sand out you have to either take them off or walk quite a ways shaking your feet. I am hoping they will work better at the lake where there is no sand. Right now they appear to be a pricey disappointment.

My husband was looking for a pair of sturdier sandals and he is liking these; have done a few light hikes in them and they've felt good. As other reviewers commented, you'll want to order 1/2 size larger than your normal size as these run small.

Love them and wear them to work in retail standing all day. I have great trouble finding shoes that feel good out of the box for my mid-low arched feet but these do. They do have enough support to keep going all day. The Keen website recommends buying a half size larger than normal and that was true for me. They feel good with or without socks. They do need washing occasionally if you don't wear socks but they've come out fine so far. I'm buying more, though since I'm a woman who has to wear men's size shoes the custom made colors at the Keen website are tempting for something more feminine.

Bought these shoes for my husband and he loves them. The color looks very good outside. He has been struggling to find proper footwear that does not cause knee pain - looks like these are doing good so far!

My hubby loves this sandal. He wore them out and wanted to replace, so I bought the Newport with leather straps -- but he doesn't like the fit and feel of the leather ones. They just don't break in like these nylon straps on this Newport H2. He will go back to the Newport H2 on his next pair, for sure!

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 my 2nd pair of Keen Newport H2. After 6 years I wore out first pair, which is why I ordered a new pair. They seem as good as the first pair that I purchased.

I tried the Newport H2 on at a local store but couldn't find a color I liked. I tried on the 10.5 and had room to spare so tried on the 10.0; Ultimately decided that the 10.5 was most comfortable. My 10.5 arrived from Zappos and I could barely get them on. They felt smaller that the 10.0 I tried on in a local store. And the right foot felt half a size smaller still. I don't know if this is simply a poor quality control issue with mislabeling.
