Customer Reviews KEEN Newport H2

Thrilled the Granddaughter with these shoes for her birthday. She outgrew another pair of Keens and looked forward to these new ones.

Durable & comfortable shoe!! I have a dozen pairs in differing colors! Each year Keen offers new color combinations.

This is my third pair of these shoes. They are great for summer activity especially when you are going from possibly getting wet to something more rugged where you want good support and to protect your toes. They stay on well and more sneaker like than sandals or flip flops. Important note, I was very surprised that I did have to order a half size larger than normal. My past pairs were true to size.

I love these sandals. This is my second pair. They are so comfortable the first time I put them on. That's the way I like my sandals and shoes to be. No working them in. Just wearing them.

Love them! If you have high arches or wide feet (Me, lucky girl, I have both!) order 1/2 size larger than normal. Very comfortable and the color is killer.

These are great shoes. The toe box is wide - your foot feels relaxed and ready to perform because of the comfort of these shoes. I walked all over NYC for 2 days without any discomfort.

This is the second pair of Keen brand footwear that I have bought. I have the Voyageur shoe, and the Newport H2 sandal. With both pair, I had to return the first pairs, due to issues with the arch support not quite being in the place of the footbed that I needed, to support the arch of my foot. Also, both first pairs seemed to run a bit small/tight. However, because I liked the colors and design so well, I thought I would give them a second chance. In both instances, the second pairs fit perfectly, and I love my Keen shoes, and my Keen sandals. I love the rubber toe guard, the adjustable elastic cord, with a cord lock, and the comfort, support, and traction, in this Newport H2, by Keen. These features are important to me, as I have a hip replacement, and don't want to take chances with slipping or falling. I definitely would recommend for you to give these a try. I am happy that i did.

Got these for a trip to Panama. Wore them there every day for twelve days. They're very comfortable. They got wet more than once but dry fairly quickly and my feet didn't slip in them even when wet. This is my second pair of Keens. They're durable, comfortable, functional, and washable. Highly recommended.

I have owned Keens in the past, and knew that they run small. I ordered a half size larger, and the fit is perfect! I wore these for three straight days at Disneyworld, and my feet were happy! I love the design too.

Love Keens for my whole family. I can do Disneyland for 12 hours and barely feel it. Great for walks in the summer heat when you don't want a big tennis shoe. Washable after a day in the river - but air dry them. If you walk home from the pool in these they dry quickly and sand comes right of them. Wide enough for a wide foot like mine, also adjustable. The synthetic version is a plus over the leather for washability, but have not tried to leather kind, which might be extra comfortable. I bought a lavender color due to its sale price but I think lavender shoes are not necessary and should have spent more on a more neutral color. Kids version is a must, tho wood chips do get stuck in them - a small price to pay for excellent shoes that never wear out after years of use and subsequent washings. I even buy them second-hand sometimes and they are still great.

Great neutral color (Raven/Capri) and fit. These are more substantial than the usual sandals I choose--Rose Slide, St. Barts, but are not too heavy. Zaps, as always, had my shoes here in less than 24 hours. Thanks!

Keen's Newport H2 fits well, supports well, looks good and I can wear them all day. My feet stay cool too. They are great sandals. This is a pretty blue color.

The only brand of shoes I purchase these days are Keen's and these are wonderful. Love the colors, fit and comfort of the Newport H2.

I bought the Newport H2 Galapagos. They are so cute! Keens are not usually super cute, they are more utilitarian. But these are! They also offer super comfort and support, more so than any other brands I have tried. The arch support cannot be beat, they protect your feet, and they are easy to adjust for times you want a more secure fit. Newport H2s are my favorite beach shoes. So far I own five pairs!

I just bought the Galapagos and the Dead Dye 4. I have more than 25 pairs of the Keen Newport H2s. They are the only shoe that I wear for 6-8 months of the year. The rest of the year I wear Keens ... just not the sandals. I have been wearing the Newports for over 11 years. They really work well for me because I have had three surgeries on my big toe (with the last one being a joint replacement). The Newport gives me the support and stability that my foot needs yet it feels like I'm walking barefoot because of how easily they respond to whatever terrain I'm walking on (sidewalk to grass to rocks). I'll keep buying these as long as Keen keeps making them and they don't change them! I do appreciate the new cute patterns. Now a true red Newport H2 would help to round out my growing collection!

I usually do not write reviews but in this case I will share. I have worn Dansko professionals shoes for years. My feet are so sensitive and I an carrying around more weight than I should which is so hard on my feet. I was looking for shoes not as heavy and hot for the summer time with more of a flare than all of my Danskos. My daughter told me about Keen shoes and that I should give them a try. And I did. These Keen Newport H2 are the best shoes ever! Thick rubber soles make walking like walking on air. I wore all day right out of the box and my feet were so happy. Easy on and off. Would recommend these to anybody.

This is a fantastic sandal! I needed good walking sandals for a cruise and a few days in Puerto Rico. I had never heard of this brand but decided to give it a try based on all the good reviews. I originally ordered the Venice H2 which I ordered in a half size up based on the reviews. When I received the shoes, they felt a bit loose so I decided to order my regular size (7.5) and also the Newport H2 in both sizes. Oddly, I couldn't get the 7.5 in the Venice H2 on my foot. I tried the 8 in the Newport H2 and that felt big as well. I ended up keeping the 7.5 in the Keen Newport H2. I have a lot of problems with my feet, including hammer toes, high arches and supination of my right foot so I really needed something that would support my foot. I tend to have some balance issues as well. These shoes were great right out of the box. I walked on uneven cobblestones and wet surfaces and did not have any problems. I also wore them in the water and they dried quickly none the worse for wear. I now know several people who wear nothing but Keens and I am now one of them. The only very minor negative is that they are not easy to get on and off particularly when they are new. If you are new to this brand, I would recommend trying a couple of different styles to see what works best for you.

Cannot recommend these awesome shoes/sandals enough! I wore them nonstop for a week in Costa Rica and absolutely no blisters or hotspots even though I didn't break them in at all before leaving (poor planning on my part but it paid off). Used them for some fairly serious hiking, wore them into the hot springs as well as for casual walking and was 100% comfortable. Cannot recommend these shoes and all keens enough, totally worth the money.

The Keen Newport H2 is a perfect fit for my long narrow feet, and offers the arch support I need for my overly flat feet.

I have worn the Keen Newport H2 for several years. With sensitive feet due to rheumatoid arthritis they are very comfortable and supportive. My older pairs are used for yard work. They clean up easily. I do wish Keen would stay with the more neutral colors.

These shoes are awesome! My baby toe had been hurting from getting squashed so I ordered these and now I wear them everyday! They are comfortable, they do well in water and they offer the protection I need to be barefoot underneath. I think they are great and they are my absolute favorite shoes!

I bought the Newport H2 and the whisper. Straight out of the box the whisper were more comfortable and were lighter. But once I started walking in them I realized they didn't have much arch support and my heel kept slipping out the back. While the newport H2 are heavier they felt sturdier and they have excellent arch support! They rub my heel a little at the back but I know after a few wears my heels will get callouses. I'm really loving everything about them honestly! Great outdoor sandals!

I love my new Keen Newport H2 shoes. I cannot wait for warm weather to wear them outdoors! The color is great; the fit is true to size and they are comfortable.
