Customer Reviews KEEN Newport H2

I have been wearing Keen hiking shoes for 10 years. You can wear them straight out of the box. I am rating the Grand Canyon/Colorado river for 8 days in August. This will be my raft/hiking shoe.

OMG. I've always had at least one pair of Keen's around; all different models over the years; even hiking boots. I love these Newport H2's and when I saw this STRIPED OPTION (called RAYA BLACK) a couple of weeks ago, I nearly died. The striped webbing is GORGEOUS and this is now my GO-TO shoe! My prediction, this color is going to sell out fast!

Love the Keen Newport H2 and have two pairs--maybe two to four years old. Still holding up; just take a couple of days to dry out. I do use them as water shoes. This pair seems to be made on a different last- broader in the forefoot and the toe is angled up quite a bit at the end. Although these are GREAT shoes, they no longer fit my foot and my big toe hits the shoe and is very uncomfortble out of the box even and that very firm rubber will not give so I'll try another Keen. Thanks, Zappos for the opportunity. If you have a wide forefoot and are a 10.5 size, these shoes would be great for you. Or even a small size 11 foot.

Great fit! Very comfortable for walking.

These are great all around summer shoes. Lots more support than a regular sandal but keeps feet cool and comfortable without socks. Great for long walks, lots of support. I got the Raya stripes and they go with everything Love the colors. I've bought a bunch of shoes recently, but these are by far my favorites and go to shoes.

I have several pairs of these shoes and bought the plaza taupe/provincial color as I wanted a beige/tan Keen to wear with Khaki's, etc. I do wish it was pure beige/taupe without the blue but the blue is minimal and a pretty shade.

Absolutely love these sandals! Just had foot surgery, and was worried that they might be too narrow. The sandal has plenty of room in the toe box, not too wide at heel, and has good support. Wish they came in the same colors as the Whisper, but very happy with the look and comfort of this shoe. Zappos service is awesome! Very impressed!

This is my first pair of Keens. They’re very nice looking shoes and fit great except for being a bit short for me. Had to reorder for a size up.

I love the Keen NEWPORT H2! I always bought the Keen Whisperer and this time I bought both! The Newport H2 has much more support and so comfortable! I had a hip replacement and need good support and this is it! My new walking shoe which I wear without socks or with peds and you can’t even see them! So well made and these will last for years! A must buy!!!

Runs small compared to my other Keen sandles and I have the same style.

Got these shoes for my mom. She loves Keen’s sandals and wears them everyday for summer. If she could she would wear them year round. They hold up well too. She still has the last pair from a few years ago in good shape.

Very comfortable sandals. I heeded other customers’ reviews and went up half a size. Perfect!

Love Keens. Have several pairs that I still wear. Just wanted a fresh pair.

Disappointed in the color, "Raya Black." The picture looks like they have a lot of pinks and reds, but the sandals I received are browns and greens. They definitely look like men's sandals.

I have never worn Keens before, and I purchased these on a whim. Contrary to other reviews, I don't think these run small -- they are just right. The toe box is wide enough too (compared to many brands of running shoes lately). I have shorter feet but longer toes, and the arch is in the right place on these shoes for me (e.g. i often have a hard time with very round-toed pumps).

First time buying this shoe as my Dansko walking sandals finally wore down after 4 summers. I have had them for a while and love love love the shoes. Great fit, very comfortable & sturdy to hold up to lots of walking but with still some flex so they don’t feel stiff. Surprisingly enough, not a single blister on the first few wears. They fit well, which for me is a challenge as I am a size 10.5, but not wide. Will definitely buy these again.

Have been a huge fan of Keens for 12 years. Finally wore my first pair out (similar style). Got these in two sizes (my normal (8) and one larger (8.5). The 1/2 size bigger fit perfectly. I have a medium width foot and can do some narrows and these fit very well in that dimension. And, as always, they were comfortable right out of the box. Took the dog on a 3 mile walk first day; no breaking in required.

Love these shoes. Let's face it, Keens are the best shoes, and these shoes do not disappoint. Can't recommend more highly!

Exactly what I'm looking for, and expecting, in a Born sandal. Great toe box, wide enough, true to size, perfect arch support.

I love this style of Keen. They are true to size and very comfortable I have enough now to wear with all sorts of outfits.

I love this shoe! I can wear them all day long.

I love these Keens. They have great support, comfortable, fun colors, and protect all the parts of my feet that are tender! ( ie: toes!) I wore them all summer - they are easy to clean and refresh. They are good to go for another summer! I received many compliments on the colorful style of them.

With an arch problem that requires orthotics, I can no longer walk barefoot on the beach without pain. I ordered these sandals for a trip to Florida and they were fabulous! I was able to go into the water easily due to the large openings which allowed sand and waves to flow right through them. I was even able to wear these sandals walking the two-block distance back to the house. Usually I switch into my shoes with orthotics but these sandals provided a firm, hard sole which was very comfortable. I love them!
