This is a great shoe, very comfortable, great for hiking or walking. Does get a little odorous after getting wet, despite being waterproof.

These shoes - the 2nd pair of 'em I've owned - are the most comfortable footwear ever. When they wear out, I'm buying some more. As for Zappos: I could be a PR person because I cannot overstate what a pleasure it is to do business with them. My 1st pair didn't fit, due to an error on my part. I called them and they said no problem, send 'em back. We'll send the replacements overnight. Before they even got my exchange! The person on the phone was all about what was good for me. Customer comes first for real with these folks rather than just being some slogan. Thank you! I will buy here again and again and you should, too.

Wear them all the time. First time with Keens, let alone this type of shoe. No break in period required. Fit right away!

Love keens. This is my third pair of Venice because they are so comfy and one needs many colors.

These shoes are outrageously comfortable and fit me perfectly true to size (10-1/2). I took them traveling and covered many miles of stone floors and cobblestone roads with nary a blister, footache, or even leg ache. They kept my feet warm on cool nights and cool enough on warm days, although my feet tend to sweat a lot in them, and now that I'm back home in much greater heat, I notice that the ventilation, though noticeable, is not sufficient to keep the sweat from pooling somewhat (and smelling).

Love all my Keens. Especially like these for summer days. I usually wear an 8 1\/2 but ordered a 9 and am glad I did. They fit perfectly.

Once I got use to the color (this is a new color for me) and the style (because they look a bit different in size 11). I really liked the way they look and feel. They are comfortable and I can wear them with most of my clothes year round. I don't like to have too many pair of shoes. Am very satisfied.

These are comfy with no break-in needed. I found them easy to take on and off. The taupe color is a great neutral to wear with khaki, brown, and even white. Best of all, they are not clunky, as so many water-type shoes are. Another score, Keen!

I just received these and do not want to take them off!! I love them! This is the 3rd style I ordered. Third one is a charm for sure! I previously ordered the Balboa and didn't think it looked very youthful on. Then I tried the Whisper Slide and it was way too narrow. I truly love this shoe and cannot wait to wear them everywhere I go. The color is neutral and can go with everything! I have to also mention the wonderful service of Zappos! Thanks for making online shopping so much fun!

Great color since skin color. Lengthens the appearance of legs. Very comfortable and airy for walking in NYC for days. A little bit larger looking than I would like, yet very much worth it in terms of comfort. Looks nice with khaki shorts. A very nice sneaker alternative.

Absolutely love 'em. Long wear walking comfort and standing (teaching). I tried some on in a local store, but they didn't have this color/style. Interesting to note that size seven fit fine, but size 7.5 made the arch support just right and much more comfy and supportive. Good width. I have a wider foot. I think cuter without all the straps of the Newport, and cooler feeling too. Neoprene was too tight at first on right shoe, but loosened up after about a days wear and a little gentle tugging.

My daughter had a Keen flip flop with big toe protection and I tried them on as she said they had good arch support. I have heel spurs and wear orthotics. I read the reviews online and ordered the Venice on oil green as they look dressier than my black Newport H2's. Great arch support and no heel pain. Our daughter is being married in Maui and these will be great beach and hiking shoes. Good toe protection too.I returned one pair as they seemed too big. Ordered in the evening and received replacement the next evening. Great customer service. I tried the Newport H2's at a car cruise and they were cool and comfortable with a lot of walking.

I was looking for sandals that are comfortable but have support. I found this model of Keen very much what I was looking for. Cool, support, light weight in a very easy to wear shoe.

This is my favorite Keen style. I think they are the most comfortable for warm weather and I wear these to walk to work (4 miles a day). The cinch strap helps with fit. It doesn't slip off like other sandals. I especially like the taupe/citron color combo. The taupe blends in with my untanned skin (making legs appear longer) and the citron (lime green) adds just a hint of style that coordinates with any color outfit. I would recommend spraying these with a suede protector since the light taupe does shoe dirt relatively easily.

After hearing so many good things about Keen shoes from friends, I finally decided to order a pair and see for myself. I ordered the Venice sandals, and I love them. In fact, I plan to get another pair in a different color very soon!

Love these! I have always worn Keen Newports, and find this to be a lighter, prettier style -- however, whereas I take my normal size (8) in Newports, I had to go to a size 8.5 in the Venice. No worries, though. The Venice LOOKS smaller on my foot than Newports. I also love the color (Simply Taupe/Dark Citron) for summer wear. Arch support is great -- everything I've come to expect from Keen, as is the no-break-in comfort straight out of the box. I think Venice just became my new favorite Keen style.

My husband really likes Keens so I thought I'd try them out for an up and coming trip to Seattle and a subsequent cruise to Alaska. I normally wear a size 8 in sandals so I ordered an 8.5 which was perfect (I read they ran a little small). They are exceedingly comfortable and I can get them wet! Zappos was great too!

I was looking for shoes to hike Hawaii in. I tested these out this morning on a 6 mile hike around my neighborhood and I love them! No blisters or any kind of discomfort. I think they are going to be great in Hawaii. The cushion of the sole is great and they actually have some arch support. There is plenty of room in the toe box and I think these are going to look pretty cute with shorts or a skirt. My husband says they look like I know what I'm doing! :-) I felt cool overall and the soles of my feet never felt warm (sometimes my soles feel like they are burning on a long walk). The only con I would give them is that they won't be good for hiking on loose or gravely ground as the openings will let in sand or gravel. That's cool, I like having the open air feel.

I love these sandals. I normally wear an 8, but ordered an 8 1/2, as was recommended by other reviewers. I had to send them back and order the smaller size. I love Keens! They're really comfortable from the first time you put them on. Zappos has great service. Great to be able to return with no shipping costs. And they're fast...

Order 1/2 size larger than normal if you have a wide foot. I loved these shoes. With no break-in period at all, I wore them for 10 days straight during a trip to Isreal. They served me well and still look great. Keen makes excellent shoes!

Very comfortable, did not require breaking in, even with running. I'm normally a size 7 and the reviews say it feels half a size too small, so I got a 7.5, which was too big. I returned it for a size 7, which was still a little bit too big, but comfortable enough. Because this is an open shoe, my feet tend to get dirty and smelly, but the shoe is easy to clean.

The Keens are fantastic! I have "foot issues" which prevented me from doing my long walks with the dog. These shoes are comfortable and pain-free! I highly recommend!

This is my first pair of rugged-type sandals. The Keen (Venice) sandal fit great the minute I put it on. Having read other reviews of this sandal, I bought it because it ran wider than the other Keen rugged-type sandals. It is wider and fits perfectly. Give yourself a day of walking indoors before you decide that you love them (although they feel much better outdoors on the pavement, path, or sand). Be sure to adjust the fit during your test day with the simple bungee configuration. I adjusted the cord on each shoe several times to get my perfect fit. If the arch feels right, I can almost guarantee that you will get the shoe feeling "right" very quickly. I tried on a size 8 and a 9 locally, and just knew the 8.5 size would fit. Would have shopped locally, but they made it sound like a rather complicated effort to order this shoe in a half-size, in the color I wanted, just for me, as summer is winding down. I would have felt bad if for some reason I did not buy them after they came in. So I ordered what I needed from Zappos with a generous return policy. I wouldn't have to listen to a salesperson pout and worry that they would be "stuck with the shoes" if I did not like them. The Sagey color is nice, a tad lighter green than I expected. I thought maybe it would be more of a dark olive color. However, the color is neutral enough to look nice with any colors and it does not have the harshness of a big black shoe. (I know, it is a bit crazy to think "fashion" when you are putting on a shoe as crazy rugged as this shoe.) I really did purchase this shoe because of a planned trip to the Galapagos Islands; however, I use mine as a walking shoe now. It feels so good and gives so much needed support. The well-packaged box came in two days with a simple, but great return policy and all of the paperwork needed. This was a great shopping experience.

Love these! I use them for biking (cool and protect my toes) and all day outdoor activities. Waterproof and comfy.
