Customer Reviews KEEN Bali

I needed a new sandal for summer and Keen’s have always been my go to sandal. They run true to size. These are very light on your feet, protect your toes and a fun style. They’re washable too!

Loved this sandals, but they're too room across the top of the foot and felt like they would slip off. They also made too much noise - like flip flops, which I don't like or want. Sorry, but they're going back.

I love keens. I wanted to like these sandals but I found them very unattractive so I returned them.

This is my second pair, I ordered the Norse Blue, the color is as pictured. Very pleased with this sandal. I will order more colors.

I actually own 14 pairs of Keens Bali Sandals. I live in south FL and have been wearing these for maybe 10 years now and have in many colors. I just received my new Grape colored ones and I know that the cross straps are Looser! BUmmer! Why would this happen? Have they always been made in China or is this new and maybe why? Like I said, I own 14 pairs and I know what I’m talking about. The straps should definitely be a tad tighter. I’m disappointed.

great shoes but run a whole size larger than i usually wear

Very comfortable. Wish there were more color options. Sometimes I feel like I'm waking out of my shoe a bit, but a great sandal for summer activities

I have had a pair of Keen Whispers for ages, and LOVE them! Thought it would be nice to have a pair of cute Bali slip-ons. I ordered my normal size - 9 - and also the 8 1/2 . Both were too long and EXTREMELY wide. I exchanged them for the 8 and they were the right length but still too wide! They wouldn't stay on my feet. They are cute but obviously meant for someone with wide feet.

Really like these Keen Bali sandals. Very comfortable, and easy to slip on and run out the door. The only thing I was surprised about was the heaviness of the sole. From looking at other Keen sandals, I expected these to have a more supportive arch and conform to my foot. They don't but I'm still happy enough with the sandals to keep them.

Love this shoe. I ordered a half-size up so I could wear around the house like slippers with socks. Great arch support. 4 stars overall because it seemed a little pricey for the material, but in general I'm very pleased.

I ordered the magnet/neutral grey in 9.5 and I loved them as soon as I put them on. Felt as if my feet were cradled in kit gloves. However, I didn't see anyone mention the issue I have with them, but didn't read all 1000+ reviews, either...these are noisy. Thwap, thwap, thwap, thwap...is this normal? I think they feel about a half size larger...have some room in heel length.

Gernerally love Keen sandals and shoes but these didn't work for me. My big toe hit the toe bed in this style. Cute shoe but will need to return it and select another.

My foot wouldn't stay in these; top straps not snug enough for me.

Cute sandal, but I like a little more bounce in the sole. Not too sure about the upturned toe either.

Wanted to love these shoes. They fit so perfectly when I got them, but once I wore them to the beach, my feet got wet, didn't slide as well inside the shoe, and started sticking out the back, as there is no strap in the back to hold your foot in. As a result my heel was stuck out 1/2 an inch off the back of the shoe, making it really uncomfortable. Also my feet swelled a little in the heat and the sandal got too tight. I usually wear a 7.5 or an 8, and I chose the 7.5 because they fit well when I tried them on indoors. Well, I should have gone with an 8, something with more "give". Too late to return now.

These are cute, well made sandals. The upper material is a bit rough rather than soft, as I had hoped.

Just a few impressions: The shoe is rather stiff and the sole is somewhat slippery (especially on ceramic tile floor). As the style is very cute, I decided to keep them and hope that with abrasion on the sole they will become less slippery -- so I would not recommend them to anyone with compromised stability. The stiffness should go away with time. The sizing is right on. I always wear a size 6 and these were true to size.

Wanted a more sandal-like slip on for warmer months instead of clogs. I need big toe protection due to surgery. Cut is interesting, although some side toes show more than I would like. Has moderate support and feels pretty comfortable so far. Lightweight, even in 10.5. Wish footbed was black, as it makes it slightly dressier and more diverse. I like to travel with as few shoes as possible, so each one needs to be multi purpose. I LOVE Keens because they make 105..and make great shoes. Seems as if they have fewer slides than before. Love slides, especially when going to gym or just running out the door.

The Keen Bali is step up from flip-flop. The semi-closed toe box is attractive and offers some protection. I think the Bali runs a little small (but not half a size) and narrow, something to keep in mind when ordering. The sandals are comfortable for shorter town and beach walks. I did find the straps rubbed the side of my foot when they got wet so I would wear the Bali for situations where I do not expect my feet to get wet.

I am a huge fan of Keen sandals and own several pairs. I do like these, but am disappointed that the sizing is not consistent among their styles -- their size 9 is usually a perfect fit, but in this style is a bit big. A half size smaller would probably help make these look a little dressier and less sloppy, but I'll keep them -- they certainly are comfortable. I can't wear regular flip flops (ouch!), so these are a great alternative.

I love them. I have then on and they look great. The only thing is they are a little narrow for me. I have them on in the house hoping I can get them to feel better.

I ordered these in my usual Keen size: 8.5. They seemed long and sloppy, but I hadn't worn slides for many years, so wasn't sure if it was just me. I chatted online with a Zappos rep, and they sent me an 8 to compare. The 8s are a much better length and not so sloppy. My toes have plenty of room, and the sandal is still wide enough (I have wide feet in front, narrow heels). The foot bed on the right (my right foot is larger) seems just a tad off (the arch support hits a little forward), but is comfortable enough. The left foot is perfect. I m keeping the 8s, sending the others back. The style is adorable. They are amazingly feminine and make my feet look small. I have the grey, which are a very nice neutral color. My feet do seem to sweat on the bottom, but since they are so open, it doesn't seem to matter. I love them for wearing around the house for some good support on hard floors, slipping on to run out to the garden, and wearing to work or around town, too. I doubt I ll be taking them off before winter. LOL. (At which time I put on my Targhee boots and wear them all winter!). Gotta love both Keens and Zappos. :-)

I love these for summer. My feet are always painfully hot and these really help. They also have pretty good cushioning in the heel which I really need. The HUGE problem is that one of the rubber toe protectors was sunk in and it crushes my big toe. Of course I didn't notice until I'd worn them outside and couldn't return them. I agree with lots of people about the serious lack of arch support like older keens. And also I agree that the general quality control had gone down the toilet. You can really see how collapsed the toe box is on mine.

I took these to Italy for a 2 week trip. We walked a lot everyday. My feet never hurt; they did great on the cobblestone and uneven streets, as well as the marble floors. I love these shoes. The one complaint I have is, I did not want to wear socks or footie s with these, after 8 days of constant wearing (I have the grey and the black) it became warmer out and my feet would perspire, that caused the shoe to rub right where the fabric (which is not soft) to hit my Bunions and caused a deep blister, almost like a cut in my foot. I then had to switch to a different shoe which saved me. I would recommend wearing a footie if you are going to do that much walking. I still love these shoes and I am wearing them again now that I am back home. I will also say, I have back problems and when I wore these, my back never hurt!
