I ordered these to take with me on a cruise to the Caribbean. They are very comfortable right out of the box. Typically I wear a 10 or 10.5 in woman's shoes. The 10 was a bit too small length wise but I still had ample room in the toe box. I went with the 10.5 and it feels great. The color is nice and I hope it will hold up to lots of walking and water activities. I have read the reviews about the stitching coming apart. Zappos will take returns for faulty merchandise so I'm not concerned. They have been very accommodating in the past and have let me return shoes that fell apart up to a year later!

This is my first purchase from Zappos, and it won't be my last! What great shoes! Instantly comfy, and I have narrow feet that blister easily, plus a painful bunion. I LOVE THESE. They look adorable and feel great, even add a bounce to my step. More, please! :)

I bought these in the beet red color and they are really cute and comfortable. My foot is narrow and these fit very well. The toe box is better for a narrow foot than the Teva Omnium which I had to return.

I am surprised that Zappos will even ship to me! I have very difficult feet and in spite of reading all the reviews first, frequently have to return what I order. I ordered Chacos, which I found too stiff and tried Keen. The Venice was too big in the same size. The Whisper is a good fit, with easy width adjustment. I usually wear a 6.5, but the 7 was better fit. The foot bed is comfy, but could be smoother and the arch is about a 7 on a scale of 1-10. All in all, for my plantar fasciitis, Morton's neuroma feet--the shoe was miracle!

Perfect water shoe. I bought this to wear in the water, swimming in the ocean, etc. The style is sleek and lightweight, more feminine, and not chunky like most of the other Keen styles. Very comfortable. It gently wraps the foot. I purchased the bright aqua color and I love \'em. They run large, and they also relax even more in the water, so be sure order a smaller size than you usually wear.

These are the first Keens I\'ve found that are narrow enough for me to wear. The adjustable lace really allows me to get what\'s almost a custom fit. The heel area (where my foot is really, really narrow) tightens up along with the front and sides of the shoe when the cord is pulled. Hallelujah! Anything else I could say about this shoe you already know if you are shopping for Keen sandals -- comfortable, supportive but not too high in the arch (I have flat feet and hate super-firm arch support) and great on all terrains, even slippery surfaces like wet cobblestones. A perfect shoe to wear when you\'re gonna go all day and you\'re not sure what you\'re going to get yourself into. I\'ve even got some compliments on their cuteness! I started with the red (amazing color -- deep, not bright) and then got the black as well. I do a lot of outdoor photography and I don\'t want to imagine having to get by without these. If Keens have not worked for you in the past, this is the one. You NEED these in your summer shoe wardrobe.

These have become my summer every day shoes. Very comfortable and they are more dirt repellent than you might expect. If you need a high toebox, this shoe is not for you, but that’s been true of all the Keen shoes I’ve known.

These shoes are fantastic! So comfortable and lightweight that they feel like you aren’t wearing shoes. Although they don’t seem to have a ton of arch support, they did well for even my high arched feet. I found that they ran true to size for my feet, although I have heard differently about other Keen styles. Only semi-complaint is that the color was a little different in person than the description/picture. The beet red color really has more pink in it, so they are a dark berry color. Still nice, but different.

I had a pair of Keen Venice H2s for three years and thought I would try something different. The biggest difference between the two styles is that the Whisper's rubber toe cover extends only over the big and second toe portion of the foot, not the whole front of the foot like the Venice. The fit is the same as Keen's other brands for me; I normally wear a 10 but need a 10.5 for a proper Keen fit because my big toes are long. If these last through three years of constant wear (through daily use plus hiking, rivers, and the ocean) like the Venice style did, I'll be extremely pleased.

I purchased this Keen Whisper for my wife as a gift. She wanted a pair for kayaking and general beach/water use. She loves them and says they are perfect for that and so much more. Lightweight, comfortable, airy, and they dry quickly. The toe cap and sole are very durable and allow great protection. Keen shoes run a 1/2 to a full size small, and the Whisper is closer to the medium width while other styles seem wider. The color of the shoe was also spot on to Zappos representation.

Best, most comfortable shoe I own! I wear them all spring/summer/fall. I bought this pair for my mom, who absolutely loves them. I have two pair, my daughter has a pair, my husband has a pair- we are a Keen family! They run a little wide, which is great for us, but they are not sloppy wide, or my mom couldn't wear them.

These are wonderful shoes. Unlike other Keens and similar shoes, these are more streamlined and less bulky. They seem to skim the outside of my foot perfectly. The neoprene liner is very soft feeling on my upper foot and they are nicely adjustable. They arrive at the door fully tightened...and I first thought they were too small until I realized I needed to significantly loosen the bungee. The red beet is a great two tone shoe, more vivid than the picture, more garnet colored. I really like them.

My daughter and I both ordered this style of Keen shoes for our trip to Hawaii. They were perfect for hiking, walking, and walking in the water. They dried pretty quickly as well. My daughter and I both found that our usual size fit us best. I have really hard to fit feet--small and narrow with really high arches--so I was surprised at how comfortable these shoes were. They were not only comfortable, but very stable on rocky trails. Other reviewers said that this style was narrower than other Keen styles and I found that to be true.

Last year when I traveled to the Middle East I noticed all my fellow travelers were wearing Keens! I just had to have a pair for my trip this year. The Keen Whisper was a perfect comfortable fit right out of the box. They could not be more comfortable. I tried on several pairs of Keen's and these are a bit more feminine and flattering on the foot even with shorts and some skirts. I love them and wear them even when I am not traveling!

A great shoe. This shoe has a much sleeker look than the typical Keen. Also, I wear a narrow and the Whisper fit fine. I've been planning my outfits around it, so I'm looking pretty casual these days.

Hello. Just got my Keen Whisper sandals. They are great. Lightweight. Good fit, not too tight or too loose (you don't have to size up or down). Comfortable footbed. Easy to adjust strap. This is my second of Keens (my dog found my first pair). Highly recommend.

Such an important thing to happen in life, shoes that are comfortable and don't cause problems. These shoes fit beautifully, although I did go with half size a smaller than normal. Love, love, love...

Remarkably comfortable sandals and easy to slip on because they're stretchy. They are great for everyday excursions but not for long, long walking, I don't think if you need a lot of arch support. Great for the ocean and in rain, of course. I have mine in red with black edging: it's a lot of fun to look down at my feet and see them!

Very comfortable shoe. I'm not sure it could be a "running" sandal, but it works well for walking in a warm climate.

These are the most comfortable active sandals I've ever owned, and they are not at all clunky like a lot of other sandals I've tried. After ordering them, Zappos sent them faster than my shipping selection for free. I’m VERY pleased with ordering from Zappos.

Love these shoes. The whispers are a little less clunky than the others like Newport (which are still great). They run a bout a half size too big. I usually wear an 8 1/2 but they are a half size too big. I bought the 8 and it fits like a glove. I hate taking them off. I could wear them all day right from the start.

This is a marvelous sandal in a fantastic color. I was very surprised to end up with a 6.5 (which is my "true" size when measured, but I almost always have to go larger). My other Keens are size 7, 7.5, and (gulp) an 8. Keen really drives me nuts with their sizing, and I told Zappos that I had "return guilt" because with this sandal purchase, I ended up returning 3 pairs! Keen has got to be costing Zappos quite a bit of money due to the free return shipping. But the shoe itself looks great and is quite comfortable. It doesn't have quite as much arch support as the wider-looking Newport H2, but it is certainly easier to get on and off. I've had many compliments on it already, and I look forward to a different freaky Keen tan on my feet this summer.

I purchased the Keen Whisper sandals recently and absolutely love them. I have yet to wear them at the beach, but I've worn them walking around town and even going on a couple 20 mile bike rides and they feel great! I also like how they are slimmer than some of the other Keen styles. I would definitely get these again.

This is my second pair of Keens so needless to say I like them. I am on my feet a lot at work, which is why I got my second pair, and have had less back problems, sense wearing them. A friend told me about Zappos and I'm glad she did, they were very easy to work with and I will definitely order with them again.
