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

Older Guy with tough feet to satisfy - The Newport H2 has been a good comfortable shoe for me. I have some nerve damage in my feet and as a result some shoes are not comfortablb over the long haul. These shoes work quite nicely for me and I often time will wear them with light socks.

Love these shoes - My husband is very particular about the shoes he wears due to some foot problems. He received these shoes as a birthday gift 3 weeks ago and hasn't stopped raving about them. Very comfortable and easy to wear!

The Best!!!!!!!!!!! As a professional guide for over 24 years, I have searched high and low for footwear accommodative to the rigors of whitewater rafting. Finally, after years of slippery rocks, stubbed toes, foot-line rope burns, and assorted other maladies encountered in repeated days of commercial rivertime I can truely say, I've found the best! The Keen Newport H2O absolutely smokes the competition. Great design, rugged build, and incredible comfort. I'm very impressed. Worth every dollar! I give this product my highest endorsement. And you can take that to the bank!!!!!!

Great fishing shoe - Used the shoe on a 3 day fishing trip, right out of the box very comfortable, and quick drying. It met all my expectations and more.

Keen on Keen - Comfortable sandal. Great for city walking.

Perfect! I bought the Keen's Jamestown for myself, which I love and so did my son! However, he liked the Newport H2 better because of the back strap. So, back to Zappos, I go! He loves them. They are great for all his sports...biking, hiking, boating, etc. Thanks again, Zappos!

the water shoe I've been looking for - being a diabetic shoe comfort is essintial. my son has a pair & I tried his on for fit & bought a pair. 2 days after they came my wife & I left for a 3 day folk festival. They were the only shoes I wore at the event. I came home with no blisters or irritations. the solid toe is great when in rocky areas. A great shoe! The next day free delivery was also a nice add-on. Thanks Walt Deptula

SUV for your feet - The perfect sandal for the outdoors and beach. I have never liked sandals because of the exposed toe. These solved this problem. I bought these for avacation to the beach and other parts and they are great. Comfortable and rugged.

Great Shoes - These shoes are extremely comfortable. I went on a short 3 mile hike but it gained over 1200ft. elevation(Very Steep). These shoes gripped the rocks with no problems and my feet felt very secure and light.

Perfect water shoes - I ordered these shoes for my father and he loves them. The toe box does look a little funny, but they are so functional that it really doesn't matter. The funny toe box protects your toes in a way that tevas and other water shoes cannot. They are very comfortable and very sturdy. He would highly recommend them to anyone.

I purchased these shoes for each of my 3 sons. They love them, cool comfortable and not to mention--they fit great.

Very comfortable, looks durable and nice styling. No regrets on this purchase.

I needed some sandals for a rafting trip and a Mexico vacation. All my friends have Tevas and I wanted something a little more extreme. I love the toe guard; it really helps when your trucking through all sorts of terrain. These rock!

I wanted a sandal with protection for my toes. This is it. Five Stars in all categories.

Love the shoe. 2nd pair we purchased in 2 years (due to outgrowing 1st pair). Easy alternative to gym shoes and go with everything my son loves to slip them on

I bought these shoes for summer vacation and camp. My son got blisters the first day he wore them to camp so he wore them with socks for a while. Then we tried them again barefoot and they've been great. His feet do get a little smelly.

These shoes are great summer shoes. Read all the reviews. These have replaced our Crocs. The kids (ages 7 and 9) really like them. The only downside is that my 7 year old's feet stink. Hasn't affected the 9 year old.

I'm a woman who wears size 7-8 shoes and I picked these up because they were cheaper than the adult version. I gave them a baptism by fire with a 1.5 hour hike through the rain forest and a 4 hour caving trip that involved a lot of water. They worked like a charm. Super comfy and kept me from slipping in the mud.

A hip 60-year-old - I bought these shoes for my dad who likes to wear socks with sandals. These look a lot better. He hikes the beach in them barefoot and throws on socks with them to go into town. They are very versatile though they look a bit clunky.

Looks like a racket, wears like a dream. While the Keen does have the look of a badminton racket, the fit is superb. Easy to put on, fit can be adjusted (I sometimes wear socks with my Keen's) and has good support. Like the toe protection as I also hike in my pair. For all that, I guess I can live with the look!

Newport H2 Review - I have to admit that I'm not perfectly happy with my Keens. They are very much as advertised, but the enclosed style has its drawbacks, namely: gravel! While wading on a gravely lake shore, I kept getting small rocks and sand trapped inside. I also find that my feet slide around some, but I think a 13.5 vs. my little 14's would take care of that. I suppose that a tighter fit could also help keep debris out, but unfortunately, no half size comes that large. Basically, these are very well made sandals, but I think I will wind up wearing my old Columbia toe and ankle, Velcro strapped models.

H2 multi-shoe - These are my 6th pair of Keen's. Mainly purchased them to cover my ugly toes and yet feel as if I was wearing a sandal. Also needed a water sport shoe for "holiday world". The canvas does retain water for a while, and in my size (14) they get heavy with that chunky sole. Love the color scheme. Love ZAPPOS!

Keen H2 - I like this shoe, it looks very good. I ordered 1/2 size larger and it fits excellent. The only downsides I see is the toe does not have a good grip on wet surfaces; I bought this shoe for fishing. But I feel this would serve better for walking or water sports, being that the toe will slip on wet boat decks. I also found that the shoe does not dry quickly and the sole is a little rough on my feet. But I think that may be what gives it good support, so I can overlook that. I like the closed toe and it really fits snug. I wear this shoe every weekend and it looks very good. I'm going to look for another shoe for my fishing trips, but beside the fishing aspect, I think this is a great product.

Great shoe! Really does fill the hybrid role well! I like the open feel of a sandal, but really want the closed toe safety of a shoe. Keen's Hybrids give both! I feel like I can go anywhere with these bad boys. No more worries of stubbing toes or scooping up a bunch of debris as with sandals. I recommend trying these on at a store to make sure the strapping hits your toes correctly (specifically your little toe). The ruggedness and waterproof qualities built in to the shoe are awesome. Very easy to keep them looking (and smelling) their best!
