Customer Reviews KEEN Kids Newport H2 (Little Kid/Big Kid)

Firm but comfortable fit even when wet- We love our Keen Newport H2's! Often when shoes intended for water activities actually come in contact with water, they stretch or the weight of the water moving around the shoe distorts and makes for a sloppy fit. Not these. They are firm, but not tight and yet can easily slide on and off thanks to the bungee ties and fabrics. Love the color choices, too. And why didn't we think to protect our toes in sandals before? Wow, thanks Keen! What a great idea! We love these sandals. Wet or dry, they are very comfortable.

Extreme Comfort- My feet are addicted to Keen's Newport H2. As a result I own three pairs of different colors. I wear them hiking, casually with shorts, and feel a bit dressy when wearing them with long pants. I have had NO foot problems since wearing them for the past two years. Many people have commented on those shoes while I am wearing them and I express my total satisfaction about them. The name should be changed to "Extreme Comfort"!

Wowee! Most comfortable shoe I've worn in 53 years. They do get a few strange looks (especialy in red) but it's well worth it. Great, great shoes! The designer should get a Nobel prize.

A shoe in a sandal - The Newport H2 is an awesome sandal. I have gotten so many compliments and at least 3 of my friends will be buying the H2's as well. No matter how hard I try, I just can't seem to take them off my feet. I will certainly purchase another pair once the pair I currently have need to go.

Great for the outdoors - I use these when I go camping in the RV. There are great for wearing on the beach, in the woods, and in the rivers! The sand and mud rinse right out. On a recent trip to Costa Rica, these were the only shoes I took. Great in the mountains, climbing up (and jumping off) waterfalls, horseback riding, etc. These shoes are not cheap, but I feel they are well worth it.

Great Sandals! The fit and finish is top notch, and the colors look great. They are very comfortable on trails, streams, and on a lazy bike ride. They are warmer than I thought a sandal would be, but not uncomfortable at all. A very contoured footbed means you need to know what size you need, they seem to run the same size as my running shoes.

Customer satisfaction - These shoes were a gift for my husband -- he is totally satisfied with every aspect of the product.

FANTASTIC - These sandals are comfortable, good looking, as well as functional. I wear them every day. I have not hiked in them yet, but plan to do some light hiking in them.

Great shoe - Great shoe for all kinds of outside adventures!

If you like "sandals"- and who doesn't- then you will... ...love these Keen Newports H2's!! They are good-looking, lightweight and very practical for about every situation (except cold, wet weather). They fit well but seem to run a half size small- I normally wear a 10 but found myself fitting a 10.5. They are very easy to get on and off and last but not least the hard toe and firm arch support makes them a good choice for hiking, bicycling, rafting and most other outdoor activities. The only downside? They are a tad expensive! But then- they are incredibly comfortable and well-built and they should last for a very long time.

Outstanding! FINALLY - an open shoe that meets my needs - comfortable, durable, waterproof, grips wet decks, and looks good too! Very supportive for a sandal. The only drawbacks I've found (as mentioned by others) are that these sandals aren't much fun to wear on sandy beaches (especially when there's sticks and shells in the sand) - sand gets trapped in and is a pain to wash out. They also can get stinky (despite anti-microbial treatment). I rinse them often and toss them in the washer once in a while. Still wearing them in December in Tidewater Virginia (w/ socks) :-)

Great Sandals - Probably one of the most comfortable sandals I have ever worn. Zappos upgraded my shipping for free (and it actually arrived a day earlier than promised) and matched the price from a competing website by 110%. Excellent service. Highly recommended and will definitely buy from Zappos again! Thanks!

Happy feet - I have been very pleased with the Keen Newport H2. I had originally ordered a 14, but the shoes tend to run small. I reordered a 15 and the fit was perfect. I wear these shoes all the time. The best overall sandal I have ever owned.

Different... excellent - I have had a pair of these for about 3 months now, and I can honestly say that they are some of the best shoes I have ever owned. The elastic laces have held up remarkably. The comfort and fit were great right out of the box and have remained to this day. They have been through all kinds of terrain and environments and show very few signs of wear. This is one tough shoe. The only thing that has ever bothered me with them is when a rock gets stuck, it usually won't fall out on its own. The styling is very unique and very cool. Get a pair asap.

H2s rock! These are the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned! I'd definitely recommend these to anyone looking for a lightweight ventilated shoe/sandal.

Walking the Galapagos and the Andes - I traveled to Machu Picchu, the Inca Village at 9,000'. Thou cold the shoes with socks kept me warm. Went all over the islands of the Galapagos lava rocks, wet rocks and beaches. Never a slip nor fall. Told to wear hiking boots but these were acceptable and so right.

AMAZING! I put these on right out of the box and wore them all day! No break in at all. I love the comfort, the look, and everything about these shoes! Don't hesitate, just buy them, you'll be satisfied

Great shoes - I am going to thailand and wanted to get hiking shoes and a new pair of sandals,instead I bought these so I only need 1 pair. They are so comfortable!!! Ironically, my feet tend to sweat in these and this is only sandal that has caused that.

Worth it- Hawaii on the rocks and reefs and they performed, dried quickly, then looked good... large size (14) availability greatly appreciated.

Great Sandals - What can I say??? They're GREAT!! Very stylish and comfortable. I'm looking forward to taking them on vacation!!!

Best shoe I have ever found - I love these. They are comfortable and supportive and go well with socks when it's cold and no socks in the summer. They're really great for those of us with ugly toes.

Support Plus - I require firm arch support from any shoe I now wear. This is perfect for the use I had in mind. Not only is it very comfortable, but it is an attractive shoe. I highly recommend it for anyone.

Newport H2 review - durable, terrific fit for a flat footed guy, everybody asks, "Where did you get those? They're great looking sandals".

Don't advise wearing with a suit. First off, I like love these kicks, however when I wear them people look at me like I'm a nut case. I think it's because I'm wearing a suit and Tie when I wear my Keen's. I wish they had a business sandal, as I have heard my clients giggle and seen them point and snicker. I don't mind this treatment because they pay me good coin to help with the problems, so I dont care if I look like an ass because I comfy in my Green Keens. Keens rule!:) Am I a Dork? (!)

Keens H2 - I am extremely happy with this purchase. The H2 has become the only shoe I wear when not at work. They are very comfortable. The foot bed is better than some custom inserts I have had made at twice the cost. I had tried out the sandal at local stores so I was familiar with my size. Zappos offers free return and shipping was surprisingly fast. Couldn't have had a better experience.
