Cute sandals, got them in black. But am sending back because the rubber toe cap which covers my big toe pushed down slightly on my big toe nail. I found that irritating. Otherwise, cushy footbed, attractive and seem well made.

Good arch support, but they fit loose. I prefer shoes to stay on my feet and these tend to fall off when you walk.

Very comfortable and stylish. A bit pricey but worth it as I can wear these walking all day long.

I bought some Keen Bali sandals a few years ago, and I love them (I still have them and they're in great condition - I just wanted a black pair). It took me forever to find them again in size 11, so I ordered them right away. My other sandals are size 11, and they still fit perfectly, like the day I got them. These seem a half size small. They will work, since I'm used to sucking it up with shoes since they're so difficult to find in my size, but they'd look and feel a lot better if my heel didn't go right to the very edge of the shoe.

Have loved these sandals for years, have every color available, BUT I keep having to replace the same shoes because they have a flaw that I have alerted Keen to, but they haven't addressed it except to send a coupon. The problem is the glue along the front. I don't know if it is the hot Florida weather here but the rubber at the toe begins to peel away leaving this ugly separation. I actually piled three pairs that I have won and loved into a box and sent to Keen to get them to see what the problem is. They sent the box back. Said the shoes were too old and worn to be replaced. Well duh! I knew that. I simply wanted them to send them to engineering and see what the problem is.

Comfortable, needed to return for a half size smaller, usually wear an 8 but needed a 7.5. Webbing material is a little rough so am hoping it doesn't rub?

I got these because the style I really wanted have been discontinued. After trying on the first pair I was pretty happy with them and ordered the other 2 available colors.

I work retail and am on my feet all day. I was looking for something that I could wear at home that was easy slip-on slip-off, had moderate arch support and offered relief for very tired sore feet. Over the past few years I've struggled with plantar fasciitis and ankle pain. I pretty much eliminated the plantar fasciitis by switching to Danskos (size 39 from the Sausalito group) exclusively while at work and Orthaheel flip flops at home. I still struggle with unidentified discomfort in one foot and am always searching for shoes I can wear that are comfortable and supportive. My Orthaheel feel too high in the arch now that my feet are feeling a bit better. I've been wearing these Bali for about a week now and I'm pretty happy with them. My Keen Venice H2 size 8.5 are one of the most comfortable shoes I own, so I was looking for a similar footbed. At first I tried the Waimea H2, but I found it ran a half size smaller. I tried the 9.0, but the toe strap is rather thick as some reviewers have said. I returned both and tried both sizes in the Bali. The Bali seems to fit true to size and is much more comfortable. I gave them a four for overall score, because on my foot they are not real snug and wouldn't be the best for more active walking. For that I'd stick to my Venice H2. The style's cute enough although I got black because the multicolored woven was not available. Maybe next year I'll get a fun color. Overall, if you need aggressive higher arch support try Orthaheel which also has a more rigid sole. If you have an average arch, these might be the soothing slip-on your feet need.

I liked the support, look and great feel of these sandals. BUT .....even though I have several pairs of Keens and ordered my usual size, this pair was a full size too large!

Not for wide feet and/or a high instep! This "Bali" style slide is, however, slightly wider than the "Whisper Slide" style. I am baffled by why Keen refuses to make a wide width in any of their shoes. So much lost business for Keen. Disappointing.

Just received these and sadly not as good a fit as my Keen portico flips. These have an extra strap which hits my little toe too tight. My foot is just a little too wide for this style. I will stick with my Portico flip. Otherwise would have kept them. Lightweight.

This shoe is very cute, however, I have a wide foot and I was hoping that this would fit, but I cannot get it all the way onto my foot.

I love these sandals. I wear them all the time. I was having some heel pain. I first started by just wearing them around the house to see if I would like them when I realized I did not have the heel pain while wearing them. They are a tiny bit narrow although I have a pretty wide foot.

Pretty, comfortable...my new "dress" Keen sandals. Seemed to be a tad smaller than my other size 8 Keen flip-flops.

This was the first slip on style Keen I have ever purchased and have enjoyed them, but I'm partial to Keens anyway! Ordered a size 10 and it fits but next time I'll order a 10+1/2 as I think it will fit great (as opposed to fine). Great option if you want something other than flip-flops and I love the more closed toe feature. It has saved me from a stubbed toe already and I have only had them for a month!

Although I take a wide width,some mediums fit well. This shoe does not. At the top, where design comes together, is tight. It is very constricting. Wish I had worn them more when they were new. I would have sent them back.

I wanted to like these but they just look weird on my feet. All my toes are covered except for one that is completed uncovered...it looks strange.

I wear a size 9-medium, and these fit perfectly in length and width. They are comfortable (more than a flat flip-flop), but not as good arch support as the Keens that have a bit higher heel. I thought the toe protection looked a bit weird at first, but now I love that--can't catch that toe part on a stair or whatever, so I've ditched my open-toed slippers and wear these in the house. Definitely would buy again. Nice that they go in the water and are so easy to keep clean.

Nice looking shoe. For me though, it runs a little narrow. I also think that the length is a little longer than I expected and my little toe wants to come out of the side of the shoe. I think that with continued wear, my feet will adjust.

This shoe serves well for sporty and dressy casual. I keep trying other shoe styles but keep coming back to Keens. I have several pairs for many occasions.

The Bali has proved to be what I had hoped for and was expecting. Comfort - excellent; durability - excellent; practicality - very good; looks - good enough.

I love the concept of these shoes, but the straps are definitely made for a more narrow foot. I typically wear 9 in Keens. The size 9 foot bed fit, but the straps were too tight. I tried the 9.5. The straps fit better but then the foot bed was too long and arch support was not in the correct place. Disappointed.

The 'white' strap version is tighter across the foot than the 'black' strap versions I bought in the past. Love the other version, these are OK.
