Customer Reviews KEEN Newport H2

I usually wear a 10 and based on reviews, I went with 10.5, and I'm glad I did because they fit perfectly! Really good support and feel. I've never had this kind of sandal before, probably because the style isn't quite 'me', but they seem very functional and super comfy.

Fantastic sandle for someone with plantar fasciitis. Love the color

I live in AZ where it feels like you are next to the sun in the summer time. Taking that into consideration I didn't want another pair of shoes that are not well ventilated. I tried on Keens before and thought that they were a little ugly but that was many years ago and the styles have changed. I am not the most athletic and I do run into things a lot so I figured the full covered toes were the way to go. I wore these to the zoo the first day and loved them. I was able to play in the splash pad with my toddler and not worry about taking my shoes off. After the splash pad it was straight off to the other side of the zoo to play in the kid zone. My shoes dried along the way and no issues with walking while they were still wet. Super comfortable with lots of arch support. I am already looking to get another pair just so I don't wear them out super fast. I do ago between a 8.5 and a 9 but I got a 9 in these and they feel good but might be just a touch too long. It would bother me more if my toes rubbed so my next pair I might order both sizes and keep the size I like best.

i got these for my girlfriend and she loves them

I LOVE how great these Keen sandals look and feel (super comfortable), but sadly find that my feet get just too hot when wearing them!

My last pair were a 10 and fit perfectly. This time I am needing a 10 1/2. Not sure if it's the exact style as before. I could tell a half size larger should fit fine. So I reordered. Love this color.

I bought these for a trip to Disney and have been wearing them to walk to dog in order to break them in. I had to exchange for a 1/2 size bigger because the true size felt like it pinched just a little. They are extremely comfortable. I just wish they were a tad more on the feminine side in looks, but comfort will be way more important after a full day in the Magic Kingdom! They are not as cool temperature wise as I had hoped, but I don't know that you can achieve that and maximum support at the same time. I would purchase these again.

Whoa, what a fit! I tried the Venice & Venice H2 at the same time, but the comfort difference was extreme! Plus, my toes hit the front of the Venice, and a half size up would be way too long. The other 2 styles had a harder sole & not as cushy-yet supportive feel. I have wide feet, a fairly high arch and FINALLY I hit the target with these Keens, after trying a zillion other mules, slides and other "comfort" brands. The arch support is surprisingly great, which is about the first feature I look at. Years ago I had a Keen hiker that I sold on Ebay, after wearing one day, due to the firm & leg-killer insole. SO happy I tried Keens again!! My goal was to find a wear-all-day warm weather shoe that isn't wimpy or fragile - this should do it! Plus, it's wide enough (first B width that is!) without being sloppy, and my toes don't hit the front.

Very comfy shoe. Took it on vacation with me. Did great when going for long walks on a rocky beach. Easy to take on and off.

I got this shoe/sandal for a trip to Mexico thinking I'd be on a boat, walking in water and sand at the beach, and a little walking about when getting of the boat. They work well for these things and they do dry fairly fast. They are comfortable enough and and easy to adapt to your individual foot, but stylish they aren't. This may be all in the eye of the beholder and only my opinion so take it for what it is-my opinion.

I have Keen boots in size 9.5, and Keen shoes in size 9, so I started with a 9 in these sandals. They seemed like I could get by in them, but I sent away for a 9.5 just to make sure. When I got the 9.5, everything about the shoe seemed 100% better, even though they were great to begin with. The arch seemed to fit my feet better, and the width in the toe box was just slightly better. So once I found the right size, they fit like a dream. I love these sandals! I will be wearing them everywhere I can!

Was unhappily surprised to see the raven/capri is not the medium gray that appears in the photo but is essentially black. (When they say "raven," believe it.) It is definitely smaller than my Whisper of the same size. (I don't know if that means the Whisper runs large or the Newport H2 runs small.) That makes the footbed a perfect fit for me. Unfortunately I have a very high instep and “smaller” also makes it uncomfortably tight over my instep and very hard to get on. Very disappointed. I wanted to love these, but I’ll be returning them. Maybe the Newport Evo H2 runs slightly larger.

These were extremely comfortable right out of the box. I didn't even break them in before taking them on vacation and hiking a steep rocky trail without any problem. I have narrow feet and these fit me better than my previous Keens which were a different model and were a bit too wide and floppy in the heel. These have a nice roomy toe box with good toe protection and a narrow enough heel to be comfortably secure, so if you have wide feet this might not be the model for you. Love them and love the gray with coral accent.

These shoes are great! I got these to replace a pair of Teva Omniums that were eaten by a puppy. They were great too, but these Keens are more attractive. I will say there is actually a little more support/structure in the Omniums, but the footbed in these is softer. My feet are very narrow and these tighten up nicely. They could be a bit more snug in the heal.

I was on the hunt for a pair of hiking shoes that could handle water crossings and hot weather, and these look like they will do the trick. I love the sturdy front so that I don't have to worry about stubbing any of my toes, and how easy they are to take on and off (no laces! yay!). They are light enough for easy movement and very comfortable, and they appear to breathe well. I am looking forward to taking them out on the trail. I originally ordered half a size up in a 9, but I found that those were too big and my regular 8.5 size worked better. This is also probably because I have thin feet and this is a wider shoe.

I love these shoes! I bought these for a trip to the Bahamas and barely took them off the entire week---I even have funny tan lines on my feet from the openings. I have foot problems and need a cushioning, supportive shoe and these fit the bill. I put them on in the morning, wore them out in the water, rinsed them off to go inside and walked all over the island in them. No break-in time, no blisters, no smell. Wore them to climb over rocks, in the ocean hopping waves, and all through town. Bought the purple and the raven/capri. Brought the purple on the trip with me (love the color!!!) but couldn't send the raven ones back... glad I didn't as I'm going to keep both pairs now. I can see myself wearing them both all summer. I normally wear a 7.5 and sized up to an 8 based on reviews - they fit very comfortably.

I loved my Keens, and it showed. I finally retired them after 6+ years. These were the only shoes I brought on my solo trip to Europe and our honeymoon to Maui! They're great on land and in water, even on the snow covered peaks of Mont Blanc, in France - with thick socks. I kept them until the sole wore through. Best travel shoes, hands down.

Love these shoes. 3rd pair I have owned. Ordered 1/2 size larger this time just for ease of slipping on when I have wet feet. I wear them to the beach and on the boat. Keens are my favorite for comfort and support.

These are great shoes to wear - I own several pair. Some are several years old and can be washed to look like new. I appreciate the protection for my toes and the extra width around my toes so there is no pinching. Easy to slip on and off. Great for casual wear and always in style.

These Keen sandals are the best!

Perfect outdoor summer shoes! They protect your feet, and are absolutely perfect for camping or running around. They aren't great for hiking, as I got blisters after a 4 mile easy hike. I love the style, and always get compliments when I wear them.

Worth every cent. These shoes stand up to everything and come out looking good!

I had my Keen Newport H2 for a few years and finally convinced my wife to get one for herself. Once she had it, she ended up using it more often than other sandals. They do work for most casual events during the summer. She was just a bit self-conscious at first and thought they made her feet a bit larger because of the toe cap. But once she was used to it, she liked it a lot. A good birthday gift that got used often. I'm happy with it as well.

Love this shoe for all activities.. It is rugged and waterproof. great for water activites. I use it because i have arch support problems and it provides the needed support for all my gardening activies, water activites. throw them in the washer and they clean up and look as good as new.
