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

Make your feet happy - the rest of you will follow - I purchased a pair of these on the recommendation of some friends. They were right, these are some of the most comfortable sandals I've ever worn. Just walking around town in them, I can tell they're going to be great for hiking, kayaking, and exploring along the shore. These are definitely going to be the sandal du jour during our upcoming trip to Hawaii. Maybe I'm a dork, but I seem to stub my toes often. When I go barefoot, or when I wear my other sandals, this is a painful, expletive rich experience. I've bumped into a couple corners and some furniture in my Keens, and my toes have never been happier! I'm sure sticks between the toes are a thing of the past as well. The lacing system on the H2's is easy as heck to work with and adjust. I've worn them with and without socks, and was pleased with the ability to fit them to my foot. Getting these sandals on & off is a breeze. I gave my Tevas and a pair of flip-flops to my son. I kept my Chacos, a pair of Reef flip-flops, a pair of Redley flip-flops, a couple other pair of flip-flops. Then I purchased another pair of Keens (Portlands). I'm quite certain these are not the last Keens I will ever buy! Do yourself a favor...buy some Keens and make your feet smile.

GREAT - This is the second pair of Keens that I have owned. I am very happy with them. They are very confortable and look great. I even wear them on my walks, they have replaced my brand name walking shoes. Wish I could wear them at work!

very comfortable - Ordered this shoe to have for the lake this summer, wore them one day and have worn them almost every day since. Extremely comfortable shoe and would order another pair again.

Keen Love - I brought my first pair of Keens 6 months ago and have been in and out of Saltwater, swamps and the rainforests all over the Bocas del Toro, Panama and Costa Rica. The toe protection against coral while wading, and vines, etc. in the jungle are a big advantage. These are all I have worn the whole time. They are supurb, super waterproof and cool to the feet. Need I say more, that's why I bought a 2nd pair. Bill PS, I see about 5-10 expats and tourists a day down here wearing Keens just like mine

Great Shoes - Totally awesome. Shoes fit great even after a run down the park. Thanks Zappos!

Great for bare feet - I tried the Keen Boulder, and Salomon's tech Revo sandal; these are by far the most comfortable. There are no rub spots inside and they fit great. I usually wear a 10.5 but I ordered a 10 and it is perfect. Great shoe.

A great shoe - The newport H2 is a fabulous shoe... great style and an extremely comforable fit... I would recommend it for anyone needing a sandal, a water shoe or just because they look cool.

Second Keen shoe - I had previously bought the leather version, the dog ate one. So this is my second pair and I opted for the nylon. I ordered the same size as the leather pair but find these to be a bit tight.

Great! Wonderful, practical, stylish. These did it all in a recent vacation where there was lots of rough terrian to walk!

Perfect water shoe! Love the pull "laces" with stay, work great wet as well as dry. The "madder brown" are red. Slightly funky look draws +/- comments, know one fisherman friend has already bought his own pair. Toe cover invaluable in rocky river/lake bottom. Second full day of wearing I forgot I had them on. The rear pull loop very useful. Only drawback: on the beach sand/shell fragments come in, have to remove sandal to shake out.

These are awesome! I saw these or shoes that looked just like them a while back in a store and thought they were a cool idea. I ended up buying them along with 3 other pairs of shoes in my last order and found these to be one of the best shoes I have ever owned. They fit like a glove and feel like an athletic shoe. They are easy to slip on and off. My feet don't get hot while sitting at my desk all day. They look cool with or without socks. In fact, if you wear the blue ones with socks, it looks like you are wearing tennis shoes. I love these shoes and will probably always own a pair of them from now on. I am going to buy a pair of them for my girlfriend.

Newport H2 - These are the most comfortable shoes/sandals I've ever owned. They require almost no breaking-in and they fit like a glove. Nothing but praise for Keen and company.

Simply super - Great out of the box, with or without socks, in heat or water, these are great. Have yet to have any rubbing or blister issues. These are the togs of choice for any weekend or evening activity that doesn't require a tie or a heart-rate monitor but still requires some time of footwear. re: fit. nice wide toe box with a heel that can be tugged taught. highly rated.

Keen's are cool - I purchased the Newport for my recent trip to Costa Rica and the shoes were perfect for all forms of hiking, walking and some climbing. Great fit and comfort.

Great Water Shoe - The Newport H2 is a very comfortable sandal. It fits well, I wear a women's 12 Narrow and the women's 11 fit really well, not too short. We bought them for our recent trip to Maui and walked a lot in them, over rugged terrain, water covered rocks and sand and they were great. I highly recommend them! The plum is more red than purple, so if you like purple, the lilac is a good bet. My husband is wearing them also and went down a size. He loves them and he has high arches and finds they support his foot well.

A new sort of boat shoe - I bought it for a boat shoe but have yet to use it that way...later this month I will spend a week on a sailboat. But it fits well and I enjoy wearing it.

Great all round shoe - My husband and I recently bought a pair of these. We both love them. We took them on our vacation to Arizona which had us going from warm desert trails to snow in the Grand Canyon. The shoe performed well in both settings. With socks it kept our feet warm in the freezing weather at the canyon and yet comfortable without socks in the desert. But more importantly they were comfortable and supportive. I have had hiking boots that did not give as much trail support as these shoes did.

Great cross-country shoe - Two team members wore this in a coast-to-coast Costa Rica trip...SO I bought them for my husband. They worked great on the hiking and rafting portion of our trip and quickly dried. They are very durable and good-looking too!

Love them - These shoes were great. Wonderfully comfortable, reasonably cool in hot weather. I have bad feet, and most shoes take weeks to break in so I am not in pain. While I did get one little sore spot after about 36 hours straight wearing (overnight travel), that was it! Love them, and would recommend to anyone. Not nearly as UGLY as Teva's!

Wow - These sandals are truely awsome. My feet are kinda tall so they're not just slip on and go. But once they're on Ho Wah amazing. The rizor sipped tread is also amazing, it's a lot grippier than I expected. Really good for moab/slickrock kinds'a things. WOW

Great Sandals - The sandal is great. Feels like a sneaker, but as rugged and versatile as a sandal.

Newport H2 - Great, practical, comfortable sandal.Great service from Zappos!

Tenderfoot - My wife says I have the feet of a newborn. When I saw that the Keen Newport H2 gave me the comfort of a sandal and the protection of a full shoe, I had to get them. I am well pleased. Also since I am confessing,I have the ugliest toenails in the world and feel sometimes self-conscious about wearing open scandals. The Newport H2 allows me to look good and protects my vanity at the same time!

New shoes - This is a great shoe. Totally comfortable with a great look. It took me a couple of days to break them in, since I have no arch on my foot. But that's it, only two days. I love them. I still don't know if the sole will soak up odor, because I've heard that the "odorless" sole soaks it up but we'll see.
