These are the most comfortable sandals. I get compliments when I wear them. I actually have a problem foot, but when I wear these my feet feel great all day long.

The most comfortable sandals I have ever purchased! I threw out my Teva Sandals. They are soft and have great cushion support. The shoes and amazing Zappos next day free shipping makes me a customer for life!

These sandals have tremendous odor! I have never had a problem with foot odor in my life until I got these sandals. I have a pair of Teva\'s that I have worn for six years without issue! I like everything else about this sandal.

What a great shoe! Perfect for boating, the soles have good grip and you can go in and out of the water without having to think twice about it. Comfortable even when wet, and they dry out relatively quickly even while being worn.

These are the most versatile and comfortable shoes I have ever worn. My wife bought a pair and she agrees. I have arthritis in my toe and these have allowed me to become more mobile than ever before. I love them.

These are great. A little hot after hours on my feet, they're super in water, good traction and quick drying, as well as walking/hiking. The orange color is an eye catcher. They're all I wear leaving sandals and athletic shoes on the shelf. They adjust easily, better than I expected. I've even ridden my Harley with them. They are comfortable and cool.

I bought these because a friend bought a pair and I liked the look and their rugged construction, and that they were waterproof. Even though I'll continue to wear them outside, I am disappointed in a couple of things. The overall fit was okay, but I found that the pebbly, inside surface was a bit rough on my heels after wearing them for a few hours. The rubber sole has a very strong, chemical odor - I ran them through the washing machine and still it is there. I have to store them on my porch to keep the rubber smell out of the house. My friend's pair didn't have this smell.

A great pair of hybrid shoes that look great in their own Keensy way. I was very happy with the color and they performed excellently during a recent hiking/whitewater trip. My wife has a similar pair and loves her too. I have fairly wide feet and they had ample room, especially with the adjustable bungee.

I got these for my son who works around water. They definitely look really sharp! He has worn the "Explorer Sandals" for more than a year and loved them, but they aren't available now, so he chose these in the rust color, and seems to like them a lot.

The Keen Newport H2 run about 1/2 size smaller. They appear to be very sturdily built. I like the way they look and feel. I would definitely purchase another pair.

I've only owned the Keen Newport H2 for about 4 weeks now. So, my comments are limited to size and fitting. In the past I have had lots of issues with Teva Omnium soles staying glued together after just a few seasons. I use my shoes for kayaking and around the beach. So, they do go in and out of the water frequently. The Keen Newport H2 seem to be constructed well. The front has a nice rubber guard, which is nice when kayaking or walking along rocky shores. The fabric is mostly nylon so it dries relatively quickly. The back strap does not have any adjustment. The shoe feels snug and comfortable overall. I would recommend the Keen Newport H2 for boating / kayaking. Great alternative to the Teva Omnium.

I have hiking boots, hiking shoes, walking shoes, and work shoes. I'm not really a sandal person. I bought these for an upcoming beach type trip to Florida. When they arrived, I wore them for a while to break them in. I wound up keeping them on all day. They are very comfortable. I went shopping, worked around the house, and BBQ that night, all "on your feet" activities. The H2's were great. When I put them on the next day, my arch was sore however. After an hour or so, the soreness went away and the comfort was back. Ten days in Florida including 14-hour days at Disney World conformed the comfort. Very nice shoe. I would not try to hike in these however. There is no ankle support and rocks and stones would be hell without proper hiking shoes/boots. There are many times that they would have come in handy, however, around streams and lakes where I wore tennis shoes and got them soaked. The H2's would have been perfect for this and will be used for these activities in the future. If you plan on wearing socks with them, go a size larger, otherwise just go with your regular shoe size with no socks and you're good to go.

So we ordered 2 pairs of these shoes in preparation for a boundary waters trip (my wife had the same variety in women's). Hers were great over the trip. Mine were losing the stitching on the back by the end. Zappos was great for replacing them. I don't know if it was just the in and out of the water, but I have to say that regardless of the wear, these were the most comfortable hiking/water sandals I've ever worn. Even if I'd kept the old set, I don't think it would have fallen apart completely. I didn't get a single blister, and anyone who's ever canoed in an area where you have to portage your canoe from lake to lake probably knows that pain, and since my wife's were fine, I bet most of these shoes are as well. She did the same things I did. The catch may be in that my feet were between sizes, and since that's always a problem for men above size 12, you'll know if that could impact you. I got the replacement from Zappos (kudos), and I'm looking forward to our next trip.

I wear these everywhere. I wear these at the beach, cross training, mud, and 20 degree winter with socks. I've noticed some problems with stitching, size and alignment.

My husband first bought Keens for me and our two kids, really liked the comfort and flexibility of the sandals. The colors are cool for the kids and they were great for wearing on the beach, for short hikes and around parks. I too liked mine and have used them almost constantly. Our response to these sandals was so positive that we got one for my husband, he has enjoyed his a lot. The only drawback we have seen so far is that the sandals get a little hot in really warm weather and your feet feel hot for a long time after wearing them, seems to have poor air circulation, perhaps? Other than that, we like the sandals.

These are the most comfortable & durable shoes I've ever owned. I got my 1st pair 4 years ago, & I finally needed to replace them with new Keen H2s. I've walked in thick bay mud without losing them (my friend lost his shoes) & clean up is easy, I can jog with them since the sole has great shock absorption & support, and with socks there's no beating them for comfort in the winter! I had to return my original pair because of a minor defect, but that was no problem since Zappos is great company to deal with! Buy 'em!

These shoes were purchased by my husband to use at a camp helping kids with the MDA. He couldn't say enough nice things about them. They were very comfortable for long walks and were perfect at the pool where he needed traction for helping kids in and out of the pool and wheel chairs. I can't wait to get a pair for me!

These sandals are great. They are a bit warmer than teva\'s but they have better support. I think I have warm them every day since I bought them.

I love these shoes! They were purchased for a trip to Hawaii and served me extremely well on the beach, hiking and just walking about. I didn't know if they would be as comfy as I hoped, but they were. No blisters. Great all around. Worth the price even!

These shoes are the ultimate in comfort: like going barefoot with all the protection of shoes. Also, they are versatile and washable: go from muddy garden to beach-walking to walking or moderate hiking. I have problem feet and these shoes are like a miracle for me. I need a tall toe box, wide beyond the metatarsal but snug at the heels. Totally adjustable and easy on/off. Best with socks but okay without. I intend to use in Fall with wool socks.
