Customer Reviews KEEN Newport H2

I bought these shoes for backpacking through Europe this coming summer since I'm trying to spread out my purchases a bit. I'd meant to save them until it was closer to my travel date, but after trying them on and realizing how comfortable they are, I've been wearing them ever since! The sole is particularly comfortable- very cushiony and supportive like a running shoe, and the straps let your feet breathe. At least this will allow them to truly be broken in before I have to wear them hiking across Europe!

Too small, but really like them!!! I really love these sandals, but they are too small and I always wear a 10. I also found them to be too bright purple, whereas online they looked deeper. So, I'm trading in for black in a larger size. I can't wait to get them. I think they'll be very comfortable in the right size.

Keen H2- Love the shoe but it was a bit low in the instep for me. I ended up cutting the elastics and they fit much better. They still look good. I tried the new Venice H2 but had the same problem with the instep. It hurt across the top of my foot and I felt like my foot was being pushed forward. Cutting the elastic on the Newports eliminated this problem. I still have the Newports but returned the Venice H2. I have the St. Barts which had ample room over the instep. I had to order a half size down on the St. Barts. Size 7 1/2 on Newport and Venice, size 7 on St. Barts. This size discrepancy prove to me that you really have to try on Keens. Different models different cuts and foot beds. I've sold a lot of friends on this brand though. Very comfortable when they fit well!

Keen Newport H2 - These are very comfortable shoes. They look kind of funny but they are great for walking the golf course or hiking. Would order them again in another color.

Great hiking shoe- I got these shoes for a vacation in the Virgin Islands, which has steep and rocky terrain. They were excellent for these hiking paths and very comfortable too. Although I could wear them on the beach, I also had a pair of Keen flip-flops that were even better for that. I took a chance and tried them in my regular size, but I had to return them and get a half-size larger, which was a perfect fit.

Great Water Park Shoe- I wore these shoes on a recent trip to Disney. However, they were not as comfortable as a flip flop- but they felt good and stayed secured to my feet at all times.

Love my Keens - I just happened upon these sandals on Maui and loved the look. Purchased the Kiwi pair which have a lime color tone which looks great with a tan. I was so pleased with Keen sandals that I also purchased the Keen Boulders as well. My size 10s in the Newport H2s seem a bit small but I will keep them. The Boulders ran true to size and aren't so "boxy" in the toe area. Can't wait for warmer weather to wear my Keens.

EXCELLENT - The best sandals I have ever owned. I'm a nurse and need toes covered & a heel protector - they fit the bill! Can wear them all day the first day you put them on.

Newport H2 review - Even a great every day shoe. My feet sweat very easily and I need ventilation - even in winter. This is a very good supportive shoe also and protects the toes. I do have a high arch and can wear this shoe without an additional insole. (Which is kind of hard to do, not being a totally enclosed shoe.)

The most comfortable shoes ever. Love these sandals. I originally bought them in the purple/mango, and they were a little over-the-top. Definitely clown shoes. Don't get me wrong, I love my Keens, but these I wouldn't wear in public! So I exchanged for the black. Awesome. My husband and 4 year old son have them too. Very cool and comfortable.

Comfortable shoe but color not what I expected - I just got a pair of these and they are very comfotable and true to size (I wear a 6). I got them specifically for warm weather hikes (I like to hike near water) and I expect them to provide a lot more support and protection on the trail than my old Teva's. My only complaint is that on my computer screen they looked like a light beige color even though they are called "kiwi". In real life they are very lime green, but they still look cute so I'm keeping them!

These shoes are the most comfortable I have ever worn. I have had all kinds of comments on how cute they are. I love these shoes.

Disappointed - I had previously bought a pair of the Newport H2's and loved them but after a year of wear and tear (including hiking the Grand Canyon) I desperately needed a new pair. I ordered the same style & size but they were too small, when I ordered another size up the mold of the sole hurt my toes. I was surely disappointed.

AWESOME COMFORTABLE shoes - I LOVE these and have been comfortable in them since the minute I put them on!!! Will be buying another pair shortly!! You won't be disappointed, and they look cool too!!!!!

A Gift I Gave Myself! I am glad I read the reviews before ordering this shoe because they do run a 1/2 size smaller than I normally wear (I wear a 71/2 but ordered an 8, perfect!). Although the reviews I read were very positive, they still did not do this shoe justice. This shoe offers amazing comfort, support, durability, and best of all I feel like I'm not wearing shoes at all. I will definitely buy Keens again and highly recommend them .

These shoes are awesome! They look a little funky but feel great. I ordered a 10 (and thought they were a little small so I had to get a 10.5). Zappos is awesome with their return process and offers excellent items.

Finally, a truly comfortable shoe! I had been wanting a pair of these for about 2 years now, but hesitated because of the price. I finally discovered that you definitely get your moneys worth with these. Although they seemed a little tight around the toes at first, I wore them for only one day and they were already broken in. This is a great shoe if you have high arches like me, but someone with flat feet probably wouldn't appreciate these as much. I've been wearing them with socks for right now and can't wait to really test them out when the weather warms up. I'd also like to say that I feel these are true to size, but it might be a good idea to order a half size larger than your usual shoes. I wear 6 1/2 or 7, and the 7 fits me perfect.

Awesome! Best shoe I have ever had! I wear them all day and my feet feel great -- like I haven't worn shoes all day! Awesome! Amazing shoes!

Really Comfortable Shoe - The best casual shoe ever! I wore them every day of my 2-week vacation exploring Greece. From fashionable Athens to the rural, rocky islands. When the weather was cooler, I added a light pair of socks. My favorite every-day shoe. I'm a size 5, but bought them in youth size 3 - the identical shoe, but cheaper!

Black leather Keens - I have another pair of Keens in ombre and I like them better. The have a different shape and they are more comfortable. The black Keens have a higher arch and a different shape toe box(?).

I love these!!!!! These are my third pair. These are my third pair and were purchased for my 3-year-old son. I have two pairs I wear constantly. I have plantar fasciitis and these have alleviated my need for orthotics. I haven't worn them since I got these shoes.

Maui wowie! I wore my new Keens on my recent trip to Maui (and Waikiki), just two days after they arrived at my front door. I was a little worried about not having time to break them in, but all that for naught. These were the perfect shoes -- great for the beach, in town, hiking near Haleakala, you name it. I didn't wear any of the other shoes I brought; these Keens were all I needed. A staff member at the Honolulu Academy of Arts raved about them and wanted to know how to get some. And did I mention how comfortable these shoes/sandals/hikers/whatever-you-want-to-call-them are?!! I am 46 years old, very picky about quality and comfort, and these shoes pass my test easily.

Keen Newport H2 - So far, I love these shoes, although they have not been put to the test yet. Plan to wear them trekking around Mexico for 3 months. I have a size 5 narrow foot. These shoes look wide in the toe area, but they have lots of good support in the arch area and are fine for my narrow feet. I got mine in a lilac color and they look adorable too! I have an enormously hard time finding shoes that fit. Finding Zappos has made my feet very very happy! I ordered 15 pairs of outdoor shoes, so I could pick the most comfortable ones for my trip. Returning the 13 pairs that didn’t make the grade was easy. Thanks Zappos, you'll have my business for as long as I have feet!

I love them! This is the most comfortable shoe I own! I wear them all the time! They go with everything!

These are the best!!! I bought these for my sister for Christmas and she loved them. She lives in Florida and had never seen or worn Keen's before. She is now the unofficial spokesperson for Keen. They are the MOST comfortable shoe!
