Customer Reviews KEEN Newport H2

Runs very narrow.

Disappointed that just over a year of light to moderate wear, the sole detached. Definitely not up to Keen standards.

Way to small and I got my regular size. I could barely get them on, so pretty hard to review. had to return them. Keen used to be my go-to brand, for ten years. Now they all run small and narrow and have a hard foot bed.

Don't bother reading any reviews older than a few months. KEEN shoes and sandals no longer run true to size, nor are they wide with a roomy toe box. I've tried 7-9 different styles and sizes over the past year or more and NONE fit. Keen was my go-to shoe for ten years... Very disappointing. Maybe they will start making more wide widths optional.

I know this shoe very well. Every few years a buy the same model -- Newport H2. Unfortunately, the one I ordered here (Mulch/Brown color) is not the same shoe. Up to 1/4 inch shorter, and the toe box feels tighter. I went to REI to try on a different pair -- same size, different color -- and it fits like a charm, just like all the other pairs I've owned. It seems like maybe there was a different maker for this shoe in the mulch color.

1/2 size too short...all my keens Newports are size 10...these had to be returned for a 10.5...I snagged the last pair from Zappos, hoping they have NOT been worn by someone!

I am disappointed in the keen shoes lately. They seem to have less arch support and the heel has a bump on the outside. Very disappointed, they were my favorite shoes.

These Keen's fit well but I'm looking for a better color. This color would suit me best in a nursing home.

These shoes seemed a full size too small and actually, one seemed a size smaller than the other. Definitely not the same quality as previous keens.

I chose the Venice model over this one. These felt very stiff when I tried them, whereas the Venice sandals were comfortable right away.

Ordered this item in a size 7, my size in other brands. Returned and ordered 7.5. Maybe it's my feet but the foot bed was not comfortable. The toe of the shoe is rather wide and they looked like clown shoes. Had never bought Keen and my conclusion is that it is not the brand for me.

I had to return this shoe because it looks like a clown shoe. The toe is very prominent.

This was quite a bit too wide for my foot. The heel strap immediately started rubbing. The appear is wide and chunky. That’s why I’m returning them.

These looked awful on my feet. The front half of the shoe is very wide.

It must be some issue with the Keen footbed used for these type of shoes. I tried several styles and the footbed is the same. Very uncomfortable at the ball of the foot. Disappointing since I love the Keen Presidio I purchased last fall to wear on our trip to Italy. I liked them so much I bought a second pair!

I love the Keen Whisper and the Rose. I was looking for something more substantial and ordered these because they look great. They just weren't the same. Not as comfortable, hit the bunion join smack on, and well, they just didn't feel like the others I wear every day. Sadly, I sent them back and I'm trying a different version of the sturdier Keens.

This shoe is made with a rubber sole and other man-made materials for the uppers that do not breathe and not much of a way for perspiration to escape. I'd have to tolerate sweaty feet! And they get that way almost immediately! I returned them. The fit was good though, although a little short. I might have ordered the next half size. Arch support needs to be really good for an exercise shoe if you need that, and the arch support for this shoe was a bit less than ideal. It might have been Ok, though. But it wasn't as good as Birkenstocks or Mozsquitos. Of course, Mozsquitos are the best, but I think they went out of business. They were a Texas company.

I usually wear a 9 and ordered a 9. They were long enough and wide enough through the toe box. I have narrow ankles and wide through the toes. My little toe did not stick out as some have had problems with. My problem was the shoe was just too tight! It was cold when I put them on my feet and wore them around the house and my feet weren't even swollen from the heat and they were so tight around I had strap marks. The inner lining is not adjustable and too tight to be comfortable. I will say the foot bed was very comfortable and supportive so I am sorry I would not wear them!

I really wanted to love these shoes. I've heard nothing but good things about them. I've only worn one gem twice and got blisters on my heels both times. They're very heavy and feel uncomfortable wearing them.

These run small. I have two pairs of the Keen Newports and they fit, but these are too low in the toe box and too short overall. Sad.

I got these sandal sin the red beet corydalis E and the color was so beautiful in person. I am a size 7 in shoes and everything else, followed the reviews to size up so I ordered a 7½ and that fit me well. Putting them on was easy enough. I wore them at home to see how the sandals feel and in 30 minutes my feet were throbbing and feeling very warm. I tired them again after two days. This time I wore socks and my feet felt the same like the first time I tried them on. The feeling was very uncomfortable for me. Maybe I am allergic to the rubber insoles plus the sandals felt heavy wearing them. Sadly, I had to return them. My feet looked pretty when I wore them. But comfort is foremost when I am buying footwear.

I was hoping to like these. I found that they hit my feet in all the wrong places. I tried the size 6 & the 6.5, neither was a fit for me.
