These are great sandals. Perfect for all kinds of terrain & activity. My kids were even allowed to wear these sandals to phys ed class in school. Great comfort from the 1st wear, never caused any rubbing or soreness.

wonderful shoes. my boys love them. So much support for the feet. Much better and safer than crocs for the summer. Very easy to clean, just add water and leave them out to dry. no more sneakers for summer camps. These keens protect the feet, and keep them cool.

Great shoes, great price, fast shipping! I chose standard shipping but was upgraded and received these shoes in less than 24 hours of placing the order. These are very durable, sturdy shoes great for summer hikes. They are also machine washable!

I ordered these shoes for my daughter and she loves them! I am a Physical Therapist and very picky when it comes to buying quality shoes. My daughter has a flatter foot and needs good support through her arch. She can wear these shoes all day and be comfortable. I order a pair every year for her! Highly recommend them.

Hail the Keen sandal for kids! Oh, why did I wait so long? Perfection! We live on the lake, who knew there was a shoe that was perfect for Chicago summers? Water, sand, rocks, concrete jungle: all perfectly navigated with the Keen Newport H2. Summer camp, parks, outings; no matter where he takes it, my 7 year old is comfortable, safe, and able to splash or run to his heart's content. Easy to get on (which is why I avoided them in seasons past), easy to clean, absolutely adorable on. We got the Chocolate Brown color, and they look great with all his clothes and trunks. We did not need to size up or down at all, found them very true-to-size. Absolutely worth the money. My daughters pair was huge on her (we took the advice to size up, and well, that proved unwise; they were at least two full sizes too big), and of course when we came back they had no more 9's, so we took the chance on an 8, which she has recently outgrown, and it fits perfectly. So apparently the Venice H2's run bigger? Regardless, I ordered my Whispers and without regret, because I knew that in spite of my typical fashionista self, I would wear them in good health. They are insanely comfortable (though I did return a far less comfortable pair of Newport Canvas, did not find those comfy whatsoever comparatively) and right out of box. We are now a Keen family for life!

This shoe made my daughter's day. We went to Busch Gardens for the day and went on all of the water rides. It was amazing to see how quick and easy the shoe allowed for my daughter's foot to dry. There was no rubbing of the shoe on any particular parts of the foot. She was allowed to run, jump and splash in ALL of the puddles without worrying if she was going to fall or not. For the price of the shoe, the parent is put at ease for comfort level, ability for child to put on and take off shoe, how quick the shoe dries, and durability for running, jumping and trekking all day. I would highly encourage all parents of active children to purchase a pair to fit the child's personality.

The first outdoor shoe to survive my son\'s wear and tear through summer camp, hiking and daily trips into the pond. The velcro strap makes it easy for my son to get them on and off. I\'ve thrown them into the washer several times and they\'ve held up well - no color fade or fraying.

Bought these for my daughter to go to summer camp. They are great shoes that don't seem to wear out. I would highly recommend these shoes for anyone looking for hiking/walking shoes that dry fast when they get wet. I purchased these from Zappos because I could not find them in any local store. Zappos had them at my door the very next day without having me pay extra...Thanks.

This is the second pair of Keen H2 that I got my son -- he wore the yellow pair all last summer, took them to the Costa Rican beaches and mountains, and finally outgrew them. They are still in perfect shape and now his sister is wearing them. These are the perfect children's shoes: they can mess them up and you just pop them in the washer, and voila! They’re clean again. The only shoes they need all summer (and early fall, and late spring).

Wonderful shoe - My 6 year old loves these shoes. He needed a size larger than I expected. Wonderful service by Zappos as usual.

My daughter loves the Keen Sandals. They are comfortable and tough. They are perfect for playing. I liked them so much, I ordered a pair for myself. They are very good quality.

This sandle is very well made and ideally suited for childrens adventures. The covered toe prevents boo-boos and the shoe works well in and out of the water. Worth the extra money.

These are the best sandals for my very active boys! I buy them every year! Their feet are protected and still look stylish. They take everything and still look new.

The Keens Newport H2 is great! My child loves them because he can slip them on and off. He also likes the ability to adjust the fit through the strap. I like them because they have a great slip proof sole that can be worn hiking or simply around town. Additionally, the shoe is very durable. He will grow out of it before he can wear it out! I will definitely buy them again! Frankly, this is my child's third pair over the years.

Great kids shoes - all three of mine have a pair (ages 6,8 and 10). They hold up well to be handed down and look great on too. I love that they are sandals but have the covered toe which is better for biking and other outdoor summer activities. The H2 is our favorite style too - so previous versions were hard for the kids to get their feet in and out of.

Great shoes. I have a pair for myself, my son, and my daughter. Only full sizes, order up. Extremely comfortable immediately. No need to break in. Easy on, easy off. Great for in and out of the water.

The Keen's range continues its march forwards, in my children's minds to try and destroy them before the summer's end. Be it on the beach, sea, mountains, lakes, cities and travel...these shoes have stood up to everything they can throw at them. New colours and styles also help as they grow and the knowledge that they can take them anywhere and do everything is a great sense of value and satisfaction to me, as a parent.

This is our second year purchasing these shoes for our children, 7, and 3, to wear in the summer. They are worth every penny! They provide arch support, toe protection, and yes, they are easy to get on and off. They wear well, and last the entire summer. After romps in the mud, these shoes just need hosed off, and are ready to go again. I have found while ordering for my 7 year old, that you may need to order a size up. My 3 year old, her Keen's reflect a true to size measurement. They are perfect summertime shoes.

I bought 2 pairs of Keens in two different sizes for a grandchild who lives in British Columbia. When we arrived the smaller pair fit him perfectly and the larger pair fit him with socks, so I left both pair. He built a fort one day while we were visiting and the shoes were filthy (muddie and wet). I hosed them down and set them in the sun and he wore them to school the next day. Great for a 6 year old.

I bought these for my active 3 year old daughter as an alternative to other plastic type clogs that I felt were not as safe for the playground and other outdoor activities. I love these sandals and so does my daughter. They have a great slip free sole and her toes are covered and protected. The fit is great and they will not slip off easily. Easy to wash/rinse- these will be our new go to shoe for the summer. Worth every penny!!

I ordered these shoes for my 5 year-old and he loves them! The only thing is that they run a little bit bigger than usual, but he got them wet, full of mud already and I just put them in the washer and they are ready to go. I can see he is going to get a lot of use out of these shoes, last year I order another pair and this year I'm back for a new size, it seems we are going to keep buying these kinds of shoes for a while!

Best every day sandal ever! My boys use them all summer, even when they go sailing (We rinse them every night with water so salt doesn't destroy them). When the sandals start stinking (I guess I am not the only mother with boys with stinky feet!!!!) I simply scrub them with soapy water, rinse them and they are dry next morning. My boys suffer of hyper hydrosis and these sandals are still great.
