Customer Reviews KEEN Newport H2

Great toe protection - The Keen water sandals tend to be wide in the toe section of the shoe and warm! So, I debated between the Venice H2 and Newport H2 shoes. I have a narrow foot and found that the Newport H2 fit my narrow foot better. I would also prefer more arch support. But, I find these shoes very useful for outdoor sport activities, hiking, biking, sailing, etc. They really protect your toes in active sports. They could be more stylish and less clunky in appearance!

Cute and comfy - I like this better than Keens’ St. Bart. This model feels about 1/2 size smaller. It seems that my feet may feel hotter than other airier styles, but it's certainly better than sneakers for active events.

Great Shoe!!! Highly recommended. This is the 3rd pair I own. Great alternative with comfort. Sandals lack arch support & hurt my feet after wearing them for awhile.

Excellent Kayak Footwear - This water shoe was an excellent find for me. I wear size 4 1/2 shoe usually and this shoe fits perfectly. So I would agree it probably runs a 1/2 size small, fortunately for me. Being new to kayaking I was looking for fit, comfort, and stability and found all, along with a great emerald color. I also love the look and have received many compliments and inquiries from others. I highly recommend this product.

Lovin' them!! I really like the comfort and style of the H2. They are versatile for work or play. I will probably buy more in the different colors! I went a 1/2 size larger as was recommended by a friend. Although they look very wide, they are actually dead on.

These are the best. They are comfortable and I would recommend them to any one with a high arch. I couldn't wear them with socks because they were too tight, but they are great with bare feet. I wear them all the time. I will be ordering another pair in a larger size so I can wear socks with them in the fall. These are a must have.

Newport H2 times two! I ordered two different sizes based on all the reviews I read. I DID, in fact, prefer the 1/2 size larger shoe. I kept the other smaller pair and took them to my daughter in college thinking she might also like them as much I do and SHE DID so she has new shoes, too, thanks to Mum. I had been wearing exclusively Crocs until I got these Keens. They were instantly comfortable and offer way more support and don't slip on moisture like Crocs do. I am going to get another pair for winter. Some times they DO smelly stinky, though, but they're so comfortable I don't care.

Great color but break in first - Got the turquoise - my mistake was wearing on a hike w/o socks for the first time - got a blister but, otherwise, very comfortable and great for wet or muddy weather.

Comfortable shoe with great colors. I own 5 pair in different colors.

These shoes survived the Orlando theme parks! They can get wet and are supportive. I wish they were a little more open, but all in all a great travel sandal when you want closed toes and an easy to dry shoe.

Wonderful Keen Newport H2 - This is a great shoe and extremely comfortable. Service form Zappos was quick and efficient. I even recommended the Newports H2 to a friend of mine who purchased it and said that it is so comfortable that she feels as though she does not have on shoes. Thank you Zappos!

I really like the shoe. It is really comfortable, and that's what I was looking for.

Duck Shoes Prevail!!! I'm a fashion person, and I like to look good even while camping. So, I was hesitant to buy these shoes. Because of Zappos great customer services, I decided I had nothing to lose by trying them. I bought them in coral and thought they felt great--I mean GREAT! But, the fashion part of me decided they were too close to clown shoe color. So, I returned them (so easy--thanks Zappos) and got the lime green. I love them. They are a bit ducky, but the comfort, support, even the air circulation make the duckiness cute and friendly. I will wear these for a long time, and will certainly replace them with other Keens. I'm a convert.

SO comfortable!!! Love these shoes. They are so comfy and nice to wear. I also like how funky they are.

Better than the Venice - I tried them both. The Newports are a snugger fit. If you have really wide feet you may want to try the Venice. They are both EXTREMELY comfortable; however, I got a blister from the Venice and not the Newport. I think it was because the Venice slopped around on my feet a bit, (good for air flow and wide feet) even thought they were in fact the correct size. They are both really neat looking and both are really comfortable. The Venice are definitely the more feminine looking of the two. The Newports look better with jeans. I love Keens, the colors, styles, quality (I own 4 pairs, my kids all have some, worth every penny) and I love Zappos. They have been nothing but WONDERFFUL about EVERYTHING. I have ordered about 20 pairs of shoes from them and their customer service just blows me away.

Keen's Newport H2 - This shoe is worth every penny. They feel great and I have never had so many people go crazy for a shoe. LOVE them.

Wow! These Keens are the best summer shoe ever made! I'm not a sandal wearer, but these have the best features of shoes and sandals, protection, support, and airflow. The arch supports are good, and they are comfortable with or without socks.

Perfect river, beach, knock around sandal - The color was WAY different than the photo, but I love these shoes. They are kind of funky looking. I selected the Newport since it had an extra strap over the Venice model. They are much more comfortable than any Teva’s or Chaco’s I have worn. Kind of pricey but well worth it in my opinion.

Keens are the best! I own 5 pair of Keens. This is my second pair or H2's. I had my other pair for 3 years and they were just fine. My new puppy bit through the elastic and I had to buy a new pair. These are great for kayaking, fly fishing, walking on wet rocks, etc. They dry in about an hour after leaving the water. Great water sandals.

New favorite shoes! Love, love, love these. I spend most of my time barefooted or just in socks, so it's quite something that I forget to take these off. They were a tad tight at first as I have a high arch, but they loosened up a bit and fit fine. I will definitely order more Keens!

VERY IMPRESSED! I am so glad to get to review my experience with Zappos.com and the Keen shoe I purchased. I made my order on a Sunday morning before church; I was going out of town immediately following church. I put the address of the place where we would be on vacation, (and this was a holiday week) I have never been more surprised than when my shoes arrived that next Monday afternoon. My family could not believe it. I love my new sandals!

Best Shoe EVER - I have two pairs of Keens. I bought the first (red) pair 3 years ago when I went to Maui. My traveling companions also had them. I can't tell you how many people stopped us to ask what they were. I wanted another color so I just bought the turquoise. Last week my husband was in the hospital and I wore my Keens every day. I got at least 3 people every day commenting on them and asking where I got them. Zappos I said!

Great shoe! Comfortable, stable, rugged!

Great shoes! I bought these shoes and a similar pair for my daughter, three days before we were going on a 3-week trip to New Zealand/Australia. They arrived the very next day. They were brilliant...I bought them 1/2 size larger as suggested, and we wore them with socks on the cold days (we went in their wintertime), and with no socks on the few warm days. Great for sightseeing around time, walking in the rainforests, paddling through creeks...

Great shoe... period - I love this shoe. I went to a Dude ranch in Wyoming, where I hike, fished and walked in these shoes. The shoes provided great traction, were easy to take on and off, felt great and were easy to clean/dry (I cleaned them off by stepping in the streams; they dried with-in 10 minutes). The only reason I gave them a 4 star on comfort is, towards the end of the week, I was starting to get a small blister on the side of my left foot. I do not know if this was from the shoe or me walking around so much (The blister never hurt). I would recommend this shoe to anyone going up in the mountains or everyday life. Since being back from vacation I have worn them every day. Cheers, Laura
