Love these shoes. Bought them for my 11 year old son for a canoe/hiking trip. Fit great and no break-in period.

I love my Keens Kids Newport H2's. First off since my feet are so tiny I save money. I can wear 3 1/2's but they didn't have any.They are a tiny bit big for me. I was a bit disappointed to find they had a back but I had been kicked in the bare heel wearing my Venice Keens by a guy wearing cowboy boots and it hurt. He never noticed as he was on his cell. I wear my Keens in the winter if the snow isn't too deep, with socks they will be perfect. I love the grey color. Love the toe box and ergonomic foot bed.

Keen clogs. Can't remember name. Don't know if you sell them anymore. They have a heavy thread down the middle. Love them. Had them 9 years look almost new.

These shoes are the best looking and most well made waterproof sandals you can buy. So great for boys in the summertime!

My daughter is enjoying wearing these shoes. She says that they very comfortable. She wants to get the same shoe in different colors.

Nice sturdy shoes, run rather wide (but that works for my son). They can be machine washed or simply rinsed off in the sink so kids can get them all muddy, wet, etc. Great summer all purpose shoe. Dry quickly on a hot day.

My kids have been in Keens since the age of 3. This is the 4th pair of this style for my son. You cannot wear these shoes out! They wash beautifully in washer and keep their color. They are virtually indestructible...love them!

I love this shoe! I wear a 7.5 in women's and the Big Kids 6 fits me perfectly plus it comes in such fun colors. It's super comfortable - equally perfect for rainy day walks and sunny days on the boat. I've recommended them to loads of people and will be buying a second pair in another color.

True to size and hold up great through heavy use. This brand always runs a little narrow, in my experience, but they're great and keep improving through the years. My younger son wears the older one's hand-me-downs, so I see that ankle-strap design has improved (now longer). Also the new ones don't get as stinky as quick as older models did. Can be tricky to get on little kids' feet, but then they're comfy.

Easy shoes for my 9 year old to slip in to on his way out. They dry quickly from being out in the puddles. Seem to be made very well!

Perfect fit right out of the box. My son loves these! I wanted some more durability as his "cheap" sandals didn't last the summer last year.

So far my sons (7 & 10 years) love their Keens! Called Keen customer service because both kids are in between whole sizes (4.5 & 2.5) & they advised me to order up with a 5 & 3 - they fit perfectly! No adjustment or breaking in period for either of my sons...they claim they're so comfortable & easy. These will be ideal for the rest of spring and summer. So happy I purchased!

Great shoe. My son has flat foot and this one actually helps the most when it comes to sandals as he can't use the other types that don't give him good support.

I purchased these Keen sandals for my 7 yr. old grandson's birthday. They were shipped to his home in Canada. They arrived in a timely fashion before his birthday. He loves them. His mother said they love the color; they are comfortable and of very good quality. We are totally satisfied! In fact, I'm ordering another pair for my other grandson who is having a birthday soon. I totally recommend this sandal!

I've been getting these sandals every year since my son was 3, he's now 6. Love them! Survive in water with ease, protects the toes, thick sneaker like bottom to grip the ground, great colors. Super!

Great for slipping on for the last few weeks of school, the beach, the park, etc. Can rinse/hose them out and they dry quickly!

I purchased these sandals for my grandson and, it is my understanding, "he loves them!" He must, because he is wearing them in all his current photos!

We bought these before heading to the Smoky Mountains for vacation. They were PERFECT for playing in the rocky streams and hiking on the trails. The kids wore them ALL the time and never complained about sore feet. Would totally buy them again.

My son and daughter get these every year. They are very comfortable, can do any activity with these on, and wash well. They are so durable that at the end of the season (which they actually wear approximately 7 months out of the year) friends have used for hand-me-downs for their kids!

This is my second round of the Newport H2 for our four boys, this year they are ages 7, 8, 10, and 11. Oooo and I am also buying the Newport H2 for our 2 year old - a girl! -- for the first time. These Keen sandals don't cost, they pay! For this investment, my children have sturdy, comfortable footwear that they can strap on quickly and be happily on their way, for a full 6 months of the year (May 1st - Oct 31st). Because of the covered toe/fisherman style of the Newport H2, I don't have to buy school shoes until November 1st each year. Sometimes we do drive the hour south to the Zappos outlet, but because of the reasonable prices and $0 shipping, I buy from zappos.com more often. We are in "Financial Peace University" so we are very budget conscious and I have a business degree, but I did the ROI and considered the risk of buying lower quality sandals, and I came back to Keen's Newport H2.

My son likes them because "I like how they feel, they don't feel uncomfortable and because the 'string thing' makes it easy to get on and off." I can't comment on their durability at this point because he's only had them for about 1 month.
