Customer Reviews KEEN Whisper

Yippee! These sandals are great! I was on a quest for black sport sandals. My first try was a pair of Venice H2 in black/gargoyle. I have 3 other pairs of Venice, but this particular pair seemed a bit off (right one was too big and rubbed). Then I tried a pair of Ahnu Trinity sandals. They were not nearly as supportive or comfortable on my feet as Keens. I read the reviews of this Whisper sandal and decided to try it, and I am very glad I did. It is perfect for what I wanted. It looks nice with black capris and shorts and it feels wonderful. It is very supportive and comfortable.

Very comfortable water shoe that served me well on long treks as well. Tried several before choosing this one. Just returned from a trip with a lot of kayaking, and many people on the trip had the same shoe for the same reasons.

I bought these for a trip to Puerto Rico: lots of rainforest, sidewalk, and beach walking planned. I wore them around the house for no more than a couple hours before the trip to try them out/break them in and they did not disappoint. I have fairly fat feet and these were a little tight over the top of my foot (so I had marks after I took them off), but not painfully so. I wore them for a whole day of walking the streets of Old San Juan and my feet were not sore at all. That might be a first. When I wore them for our rainforest hike, I didn't slip once (though my husband did)! I don't think they're the cutest sandals I've seen, but they were such workhorses at keeping my feet comfy and safe.

I got these in the brindle/regal orchid color. Very nice for light colored summer excursion outfits. Really comfortable shoe and it's lightweight. It is true to size and width. Going to Egypt this summer, so it'll be great for all the walking and site seeing. I'm very much a fashionista, so I like nice things. These are cute for what they are, and the color is pleasing to me.

The only thing about buying shoes by mail is the uncertainty about size - which is absolutely no problem with Zappos! I think I've had to exchange every pair I've ever gotten because I guessed wrong. It's painless. Love these sandals.

Keen Whisper is great! My shoe size is 8 medium and the size 39 fits just right, with a bit of adjustment on the center cord pull.\r\n\r\nI have had several foot surgeries recently and the Whisper works for me. The powder blue color was a bit of a surprise, I thought the color would be more denim blue, but I still like the shoes for their comfort.

Although I have bought all my shoes recently at Zappos.com, I stopped in a local shoe store recently to try on shoes. I really love the look of the Keen Whisper but the toe box is not as wide or comfortable as my Keen Venice H2 so I am unable to wear them. These shoes definitely run narrow compared to some other Keen styles.

I love Keen shoes, and Whisper does not disappoint. I bought these for an up-coming trip to the beach where we’ll be doing some kayaking. I haven’t worn them a lot yet, but just wearing them around a bit with jeans, they are just as comfortable as my other Keens. I have a slightly narrow foot, and these seem to fit even better than the others, plus they’re easily adjusted with the little bungee strap.

I love the Keen Whisper. They are light weight and less boxy than the Keen model I have been wearing. Please note that my usual Keen size 7.5 was too small in the Whisper. I had to order an 8. I get lots of compliments on them, even from strangers. You will love them, too.

I'm delighted with these sandals! I have long, narrow feet that are difficult to fit, size 11 AA. Most size 11's bump my toes a little, but any increase in length and they are way too wide. The length is perfect for me, and though the medium is a little wide, the bungee cords and the padded straps make it easy to customize the shoes to my feet. They're amazingly lightweight, and most importantly, they're comfortable. Shortly after getting them, I wore them for a 3 mile hike without a hint of a blister. I stubbed my toes a couple of times, and the toe bumper is a genius idea -- great protection. The only thing I'd change would be to improve the arch support. I have an old pair of Chacos, which have great arch support, but the soles are hard and stiff, the straps are rough, and they're heavy. As another reviewer said, they really do feel like going barefoot -- only better!

These are the best walking shoes that I have ever owned. They are so comfortable and I have received many compliments on them. Can't wait to try them out in Vegas or on the road to Hana in Maui (I wish). Will probably end up getting them in another color also. I highly suggest!

I love these shoes. They are very comfortable and very versatile. I am picky about the comfort of my shoes and these measure up to my standards. I recommend them.

I have AA narrow and one flat foot. These shoes have moderate arch support which prevents my plantar fascitiis problem and I can lace them tight enough to fit my narrow feet. The soles are like wearing an athletic shoe, but much cooler. They are just SO comfortable. I got them in the nile color which is light and blends with most everything. I love the smaller toe look compared to other Keen shoes and I highly recommend them. They will be perfect for our sailing, kayaking, hiking week in the British Virgin Islands, plus every day at home. Got them in 9 and I normally wear a 9.5.

Yeah! As a narrow-foot person, I was losing hope that I could find something in this style that would fit. The heel is super soft and stays comfortably in place. Most impressively, the straps can actually be tightened to the point of the shoe feeling as though it is actually on my foot. Excellent.

These are wonderful shoes. Very light and extremely comfy. I just had them on for a week straight of walking and dancing through New Orleans. No blisters. I wear a 10, it was too small, so was the 10.5, 11 is perfect. Zappos was amazingly helpful with my return, even sending a new pair before they got the others back! Buy these shoes!!!

I was looking for a walking sandal for travel to Europe next summer. These are lighter than most - a little less clunky than other Keens or similar- offer some toe protection and so far my feet don’t slide around in them. They snug up nice in the morning and loosen easily as the day goes on.

I love this shoe! I bought these to hike, rapell, and zipline in Puerto Rico. I wanted something that was comfortable and versatile, and these did the job. I am between a 7 1\/2 and 8 and decided to purchase an 8 based on the other reviews. It was 1\/2 size larger than I wouldve liked (a true 8), but my foot is wide so I stuck with the 8 (to avoid it being tighter on the sides) and it worked out perfectly. They were what I was looking for and worth the price.

These are great shoes! I have the old version, which I completely wore out and these are even better. They\'re lighter, sleeker, and really comfortable. I have worn these kayaking in the Galapagos, to the beach\/pool, or walking around Chicago and they are the best.

After reading about this sandal in others reviews, I decided to go ahead and order it. I like the fact that it didn't have a wide toe box. I got these for our trip to Puerto Rico where there would be lots of walking. These shoes felt great from the start and with my narrow foot and many shoes only coming in a med. width I was concerned. They did well in the sandy beaches and the slippery paths of the rain forest. They have great support and comfort for walking all day!!

Got these shoes for my daughter for our trip to Disneyworld and she was the only one who didn\'t complain about her feet hurting in my family of 5. She loves them! They are particularly light compared to the traditional Keens. I may just have to buy a pair for myself.

An ideal piece of adventure footwear. I purchased these hiking sandals for a trip to Nicaragua. I needed shoes comfortable enough to be worn every day, especially because my feet are sensitive and blister when wearing any new shoes (even comfortable ones). I did have some small friction hot spots, but they didn’t even bother me and did not blister. The shoes were comfortable right out of the box. They dried quickly, were easy to clean off, and offered both excellent protection while hiking and excellent ventilation. The Nile (light green) seemed to be the most subtle color. I would normally not purchase Keen because I find the giant toe box style to be extremely unattractive. However, these shoes are not boxy at all, and are as cute and flattering as this type of shoe can be. Good support for walking and good traction for hiking on wet rocks, sandy beaches, etc. (I actually jumped out of a boat and washed up on the beach in these.)

These are very cute and comfortable shoes. For those of you who have Keen Newport H2Os, I would say that they run a bit smaller, the sole of the shoe is not quite as sturdy yet it is more flexible, and on the positive side, these are not quite a clunky as the Newport. Took them on a trip to Costa Rica...when I wore them white water rafting, climbing on rocks, etc., they weren't quite as stable as my Newports, but when I wore them for casual walking, or out to dinner, they are much more stylish than the Newports.

Exactly what I was looking for - a shoe that can be worn with anything casual from shorts to skorts to dresses and long pants. The color Nile will go with about anything. Comfortable footbed. A perfect shoe for active traveling. Finally Keen made a shoe that fits a ladies more narrow fit.

Totally comfortable trekking shoe for warm climates (Thailand), beaches, rivers and rain. The enclosed toe gives good protection, with great support and cushion on the sole. I’m always sensitive to rubbing from straps, but none of that here even with sweaty feet. The Whisper style looks less "clunky" than other Keens. I usually wear a 9 or 9.5, the 9 was a bit too small.
