Customer Reviews KEEN Newport H2

Great for many conditions - I Love these Keen Newport H2's. I have used them in water over rocky shoreline and they really protect my toes. They are also very comfortable for everyday wear! I will be buying more Keen products.

Tromped all around Hawaii with these! The Keen Newport H2 are a really great shoe. I ordered them for a trip to Hawaii and they were perfect. I swam in rocky beaches, hiked over lava fields and in rain forests, wore them to the pool -- everywhere. Just fabulous. They do look a bit like Mickey Mouse shoes, but their functionality can't be beat. They run about half-size small, so order up.

Keen - If you look at the multiple views, note on the side views the foot bed has what appears to be a imprint of a foot on it. The problem with this is it is an indentation and causes pain on my heel if I wear them for an extended period of time. Socks may help to prevent this but then what is the point of the shoe. They are very cute-but caused trouble for me on a five mile walk.

LOVE these sandals - Got them in another color to enjoy this coming spring & summer - couldn't get enough of them this past year in warm weather. NO break-in period, and they still look like new even after wearing them at the beach, in the creek, etc. My husband has a pair like them and he loves his too.

Love 'em! I just followed what the other reviewers said about the fit, etc. and they were right on, not having the option of going to a store to try for size. I have worn them from walks on the beach to around town and have been quite happy with them - like the covered toe. Though, on my last beach walk, I don't know if it was due to a build-up of sand or what, but my first toes got bruised - not blisters. Other then that, I have been really happy with them. They clean up/rinse off well and dry quickly, which is really important.

What a great walk - These shoes could not be more comfortable. They are great for walking.

Comfort- These shoes are the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned! I love the space for my "yoga toes" and I look forward to wearing them every day in Thailand... on trails, in the cities and on elephants! I did try these on in a store for sizing before I ordered them, and found that my normal shoe sizes fits perfectly. My next shoe is going to be either the Providence or Montreaux.

Too bad! Really wanted these shoes to fit but must be cut for different foot shape. Love the look and the material but straps left red welt on my small toes. Too bad as I was looking forward to wearing these sandals.

Fabulous! Extremely comfortable - good arch support, which is what I need. Love my color - purple. Have worn these with light socks and still works well in cooler weather. Excellent support and traction. I had read that these, "felt a half size smaller" and took a chance ordering according to that description. Felt that this was true and glad that I had read suggestions. Good width - not tight. They will be going with me to the Galapagos and Macchu Picchu!!!

Keen Sandles - I like them, but I bought summer shoes in the winter; what was I thinking? I think I still need to wear them more to give an honest critique.

LOVE THESE KEEN NEWPORT H2S!! Have a severe case of shin splints and needed a cushioned shoe that made me happy!! These Keens fit the bill - comfortable beyond belief - soothing to my aching shins - and very cool to look at. I own the black and am looking longingly at the lilac/gray ones - also kudos to zappos for EXCELLENCE IN CUSTOMER SERVICE!!

Kiwi/Madder Brown - Next to the Providence Clog, these are my second favorite shoe. They are very comfortable, have great arch support, dry quickly when wet - I much prefer these over the Merrells for water use. They are also funky looking, work well with jeans and capris as well as shorts. I first saw them on a woman when I was on a cruise last winter - I searched to find them when I returned. I plan to wear them in my travels this winter. The toggle lacing system is also great - quick, customizable and easy to use (tuck the excess into the lacing down the front). My husband also has a pair and although he wasn't a sandal-guy when I bought them for him, he is now. We got a pair for our niece who is 12 and she, too, loves them. A great sport sandal. As with all Keen's order at least a 1/2 size up.

Keen - I have to wear these shoes with black soxs because the plastic sole makes my feet sweet too much and stinky. If you are okay with that, then go for it and buy them. other than that, I like that I can wear this sandel and feel like my toes are protected.

Great shoes! These are my first pair of keens and I love them. I origonally wanted them when I saw my niece wearing them and I loved the look. Now I love them for the comfort too!

Sweaty Feet - The only negative about the shoes is the innersoles still cause my feet to sweat after wearing them for a while. I'm not certain if it's "cool" to wear socks with these shoes.

Fun and Functional - Worn with socks, these feel like a shoe. Without, they feel like a sandal. I like that they're lightweight. The lilac color is unusual and fun. I have not tested them on a long walk so I cannot vouch for their comfort. My only complaint is that they look really wide but don't feel too wide. I don't have a wide foot. Really nice shoes overall.

Only shoes you need on a cruise - I wore these shoes onto the ship...on the islands...when exercising on board...when walking to my chaise lounge next to the pool on board. I wore heels to dinner and nothing to sleep. But overall 5 stars!

Versatile, fun footwear. I have worn this versatile sandal for hiking, fishing and for running errands around town. It was comfortable from the first time I wore it. I love the purple color!

Not a glamorous look but comfortable and versatile- Very comfortable for walking the dog, walking on a treadmill, or lifting weights at the gym. Not suited for high impact activities, but great for casual exercising or casual wear. Funky looking. I would definitely try another pair of Keen shoes, this is my first pair.

They're really Keen! I was getting my Birkenstock's repaired and saw this shoe in lavender (my favorite color). I put them on and have not taken them off except to go to bed! They are comfortable and waterproof. Just love them!

If you want compliments... Then get this sandal. I've had strangers come up to me and ask me what kind of sandal it is and where I got it from. I usually wear a 7.5 - 8 and the 8 was perfect for me. I got it in Kiwi and it is a great color for shorts and capris. It is super comfy and the first day I got them I ventured out for a 3 mile walk. They were so comfortable that they felt like I've worn them for ages. No breaking in required. I normally would not be the type to buy such an expensive shoe but so glad that I splurged. It's been a couple of months since I got them and I'm still in love with them. Get them you won't regret it.

Although these sandals require careful adjustment the first few times, once you get it down, you've got one very comfortable, very cool shoe. Keen offers some great colors and you've got to love the funky look. I have A or AA feet and the Newport H2 fit my just fine, hiding my skinny little toes while still protecting them and providing air circulation.

Great shoe/sandal- I love these sandals. I have a knee that is bad with arthritis; these shoes provide support and great comfort. I wish they had the same thing in a covered shoe. They are light weight, which is important to me with the arthritis.

Great shoe - Maximum comfort. Couldn't believe I could find a sandal so comfortable. Great support.

Keen H2 - great shoe - I purchased the Keen H2 for my recent trip to Maui. I needed a beach shoe that would be a good all around hiking/outdoor shoe. I am extremely happy with my purchase and found the shoes to be very comfortable and true to size. I have always worn Teva's, but liked the fact that my toes were covered in the Keens.
