Customer Reviews KEEN Newport H2

Love this shoe except not for pebbles - I recently purchased and wore this shoe on a camping trip. It was very comfy and I love the color. Size was very true. It was a little hard to get on but got easier each time. Great in the river bed. It is NOT good for water with small pebbles, like Lake Tahoe; they slip in the sides and go right under your sole--ouch! But for big rocks they are perfect and my husband is going to get a pair. Five stars for sure!

Could not be happier - I love these shoes! They are so comfortable. I’ve worn them everyday since I got them. I hate to say it, but I ordered the waterproof sandals because I liked the color (purple!), but they saved me last weekend in a torrential downpour. I know that I’ve helped to sell at least 4 other pairs to people who have asked me about them. These shoes have definitely tightened the hold of my Keen addiction.

Great, comfortable shoe - I read the other reviews before purchasing, and also ordered a half size up (I usually wear a 7.5 to an 8 and got these in 8.5). The sizing was perfect. I wear these to walk to and from work and they have been great. They breathe and my feet don't get overheated as when wearing socks and sneakers.

Love my Keens - I love my Keen Newport H2's, they are extremely comfortable and have excellent arch support, I wear them every where and my feet never feel tired at the end of the day. I ordered a half size up from my normal shoe size and they fit perfect. Everyone always asks me, ooohh what are those shoes?? And I tell them all about how great they are! The only small draw back is sometime they make my feet sweat not sure if that’s an activity thing or what but that aside they ROCK!!!

KEEN SANDALS…LIKE WALKING ON AIR - Been living in the Keen Balis…got two pairs and the H2'S in Plum/Gold are so cute ... just picked up the Antiquas and I am set for a trip to Morocco .. Just as comfortable as the other Keens but needed to go a 1/2 sz bigger because of the toe guard…no need to break in .. They stay on your feet and still lets the pedicure show through

Very happy with Keen H2 - Very comfortable from the very first day. Plenty of toe room. They stay secure while walking, no problems with rubbing or blisters. Lots of support. The only "downside" for me is that the bottoms of my feet get hot . . . but after all that's easily solved with a dunk in some cool water. I took everyone's advice and ordered 1/2 size larger and they fit perfectly! I am on my feet all day long and my H2's give me all day foot comfort. They are unique looking, and I get asked about them just about each day I wear them. They definitely have a rugged, clunky look. If you're looking for girly and svelte, don't buy these shoes.

The Almighty Sandal of Full On Comfort - This is the most amazing sandal I've ever owned. Regardless of where I happen to find myself walking, no matter the terrain and its inclines, I've felt completely secure in my trekking, and perfectly comfortable the whole time. I walk for miles in these things and don't think twice about it.

Keen Means COMFORT! This is my second pair of Newport H2s. I wore the first pair so much I had to give in and get another just for walking. I also have a couple of pairs of Antigua’s that are great just for bumming around! I have a large foot, so having people constantly stop me and say "those are so cute!" says a lot about a shoe that to my way of thinking is more functional than fashionable! I need lots of arch support and Keen always delivers!

Great sandal - worth the money- For anyone active outdoors, particularly in/around/on water, these sandals are perfect. Comfortable molded sole, offering protection w/big rubber toe, good traction on bottom. They are not slip-on convenient (not even 1-handed for me) but they fit my foot like a glove.

Great summer all activity hiking/ biking shoe /sandal - The Keen's Newport H2 was very comfortable on an all-terrain hike through streams and rocky trail. It has great traction and wonderful support. Great cushy feel. Got a bit clammy in very hot weather that was expected. Performed well in water and dried like a dream. No stinky feet either if dried well. Order a half size bigger or go whole size up.

Great shoe...a sandal that works like a tennis shoe - I got these for my kids and WHAT A HIGH! From going to the beach, pool, lake, and go-karting, a quick rinse and these sandals look brand new for a trip to town and dinner! I can't believe how well they have held up with my rough boys! They even love them with and without socks!! I've going to order a pair for myself! Definitely need to order a 1/2 to 1 size larger.

Water/land shoe - This is the most comfortable shoe!!! I bought it for water use and find myself putting it on for day to day wear. It is constructed with enough support that I can do my running workout in it. From the other customer review suggestions I bought a half size larger and got a perfect fit.

What a comfortable shoe! I love my new Keen Newport H2s! They are so comfortable. I had tried them on at a store here in town but decided to go with a different Keen shoe and later bought the Newports from Zappos. I love that they are waterproof and don't show my toes. I wear them with socks on cooler days and they still look awesome.

Happy, but will have to change the size - I was extremely pleased with the service I got from this company; delivery was speedy and less expensive than I had anticipated. The shoe itself however did not fit correctly and I will have to change the size, however, I believe exchanging will not be problematic. It would be great if there was a foot print of the size of the shoe so that one could print out and measure ones foot against it, which could save getting a size that isn't quite right. I'd still order from this company again though, because the choice of sizes is better than anywhere else based on my research. I'd recommend Zappos to others too!

Sooooo comfy - These sandals are amazingly comfortable and also very sturdy. I wore them all last week on the Inca trail at camp and they were a very welcome relief from the heavy hiking boots. They were brand new but gave me no blisters- they fit perfectly. They're great in water as well! And they don't make my feet look huge at all. (I’m an 11.)

Love these odd little buggers! I have knee problems, and just finished months of physical therapy. My therapist approved two kinds of shoes for me, and this was one. I was, to put it mildly, unhappy. I love cute, strappy, useless little shoes (preferably heeled) with no support. But as this was my only sandal option and summer is here...I bit the bullet and tried on both the Newport H2 and the Venice. I normally wear an 8.5 but had to go up to a 9 in both. I liked the look of the Venice better, but the Newport H2 provided much more lateral stability and support, and that's what I need. I also have a wider foot, and these accommodated my feet well. I got a pair in purple/mango and hated them for the first few days. I turned the corner about day 3, when we went to Maui for a week. Amazingly, I can wear these sandals all day in comfort, without any knee pain. I hiked with them, did several activities that required closed toed shoes, wore them to the beach...and just threw them in the washer at our beach condo. The sand and red Maui mud washed out beautifully, and they look like new. I'm more surprised than anyone how much I love these sandals.

Great Sandals! I purchased these and I love them! Not only did they fit well from the start (no breaking in period), the look is great too. I wear an 8-1/2 wide so I ordered a 9 and they're perfect. Well worth the money.

Comfortable Shoes - Not a pretty shoe, but oh so comfortable. Great traction, great fit, easy to adjust & super easy to clean. Soles of feet get a little sweaty; even so you will not slip around in these shoes. Love the toe protection. Even used these for a little bouldering!

Love, love, love them! These are such comfy shoes, I put them on and they never hurt my feet. I love the support around the toe bed. I highly recommend these shoes. I usually wear an 8, sometimes, 8.5. I bought a 9 and they are perfect.

Nice sandal - Light weight but sturdy.

Great all around footwear - I bought these for my daughter. She wears them all the time, even to the gym to work out. (She wears socks.) She says they are very comfortable. I like the fact that they don't smell like most sandals. This is a great all around footwear hybrid. After reading other reviews, we bought them 1/2 size larger.

Keens Rule! I think these shoes are fantastic. They are true to size and are so comfy. The washing instructions are easy and they can go anywhere...from my office to the beach with ease. I love these shoes!

Great comfortable shoe - This shoe/sandal is cute and fits great for the person with a wide foot. The arch support just adds to the comfort and makes them the shoes I grab from the closet time and again. I own 3 pair of keen shoes and cannot recommend them enough.

Wow! So comfortable - I was worried about how these shoes would feel, but they are SO comfortable. And, best of all, I can wear them to work (I'm an urgent care doc) because they have a closed toe!!

Love the funny-looking shoe! I followed advice of others in these reviews and ordered 1/2 size up. They are a perfect fit, and very comfy. I would say that despite the wide toe box, which I love, they are certainly not a wide shoe. I have a narrow foot, and I usually don't even tighten the elastic. I bought the purple with mango trim, and they are quite a sensation.
