They are very cute I loved the colors and the ease of getting these on and staying on. I hiked around Costa Rica for a week with these, very lightweight but still sturdy enough to hike through the jungle with and I loved that I didn’t have to worry if they got wet. Only compliant is that they made my feet really dry so I had to wear extra cream at night but the ease and comfort and style of the shoes made up for it I would definitely recommend these.

Surprisingly comfortable, although not the prettiest. I wear them for walking my dog. Never having owned a pair of these before, I think I’d prefer a suede-like footbed to absorb perspiration. But for hiking the footbed is perfect. I haven’t used them as water shoes and don’t plan to, but I bet they’d hold up great in the water. Normally I have to be careful of the shoes I wear because I have bunions on both feet, but these don’t bother them at all! I will buy again.

Great feeling shoe-sandal. I'm usually 8.5 but it felt snug and my toe hit the front of the shoe. I went up a half size up to 9. The 9 is really comfy!

I take my regular size 6 and 1/2 B, which I take in dress shoes and in some other styles. I normally need to go up a half size when full sizes are offered. I love Keen sandals. They are comfortable practically from the moment I put them on and very practical. I find them moderately supportive of my high arches but I can walk for quite some distance in them--several miles easily. They are washable and protect the toes. Highly recommend.

I am a true size 8 with a slender to medium width foot and in no way does this shoe run small. I have the Whisper from years ago and a new pair now and both are my usual true size 8. An unparalleled shoe if you want comfort, versatility, easy on off for travel. For what it is the shape is not too oversized or clunky.

Love these sandals! Got them in rhododendron red. I wear an 8 or 39 (sometimes an 8 1/2). These fit well. Just perfect. Waterproof. Comfortable. Awesome.

These Keens were great for a trip to the Galapagos and also all summer! Wore them every day instead of my regular sandals as they provided more support. I sole was good in wet conditions, and they are almost like wearing sneakers. The Zappos customer service person was helpful in reviewing the Whisper to other Keens. I am very happy with the turquoise color!

For years I had the Keen Venice, and these are so much better!! More lightweight and less clunky, much more comfortable. I find with Keens I usually need a half size larger than in some other shoes, and by adhering to that I got a great fit. No break-in time. Great for kayaking, but I think these will get some general around town sandal use as well. But let's face it these aren't fashionable :)

I got these shoes to wear when Kayaking and they work great! I even wear them to run to the store since they are so comfortable and since I got them in purple, ladies ask where I got them! They drain the water well when involved in water sports and even when they were new, there was no rubbing problems. My friend used my other pair I purchased several years ago and even though she only wore a 7 and I wear an 11, she was able to use them with no problem because of how close they fit to your foot. Love the shoes and they wear VERY well, too.

I have walked miles all over the place with these shoes for a week now. Including city and beach. No knee aches nor blisters. I’m also relieved I chose the brown color over the blue. The blue ones made my feet look enormous. The brown ones have the opposite effect.

I'm glad I read the reviews and went up half a size to the 8. Feels a little stiff on heels but goes on easy and stays on. Perfect for canoe trips and rocky beaches to protect your toes!

I love these shoes! it is great to slip them on and off. They are so much cooler than sneakers in the heat we have had this summer! I have had a pair of Clark's in the past that were similar, but they finally gave up the ghost, and Clark's no longer make that shoe. I am very happy and would recommend the Keen shoe to anyone!

I didn't want to review these shoes until I let them walk the talk -- wearing them right out of the box on a two-week summer vacation in New England where I hiked mountains and walked beaches and got 'em wet and filled with sand, and dried 'em out and got 'em wet again! So now I can say, wow! These are the best all-purpose summer shoes I've ever owned. Immediately comfortable, they allow air circulation and feel comfortable in high humidity and heat. Perfect for walking about all day, although they wouldn't be suitable for any heavy trekking. I wore them damp and they didn't chafe; I let them dry, and afterwards they still felt soft inside against my skin. And most importantly, no blisters or foot pain, even after 10 or more hours on my feet. I couldn't be happier about my purchase, and I intend to get another pair as soon as I can fit it in my budget!

I had a pair of Keen sandals that I wore out. Good for walking in crowds because of the closed toe. Very comfortable to wear sock-less. When it was finally time to replace them, I couldn't read the size, so I ordered my usual. Had to send them back and get a full size smaller. But thanks to Zappos, delivery and returns are free, so not a problem! I love them, and and back to being a happy tourist!

Super comfortable, right out of the box! I wear a size 7 and bought a size 7 and they fit perfectly. Nice and lightweight, would highly recommend.

So happy I went a 1/2 size larger. They fit great and are very comfortable. Love Zappos! I always feel confident in my purchase knowing the customer service department is the best if I ever need to exchange or return.

I usually wear a 9 1/2 or 10 narrow. I ordered a size 10 and they fit perfectly. The draw-string elastic allowed a good fit for my narrow foot. I purchased these for a trip to Costa Rica - they were perfect for all aspects of the trip - walking in the rain, hiking and going in the ocean. They were very slippery on tile floors so proceed with caution on smooth surfaces!

I usually wear a 6.5-7 depending on the brand, so I ordered a 7 and it fits perfectly. SUPER comfortable, lightweight, and no breaking in needed. They're not the cutest shoes, but they're insanely comfortable and will work well for my upcoming trip abroad.

The last pair of keens I had was way too large in the toe box as well as overall too wide. These are not like that at all. They fit more narrowly (my daughter and I have very narrow feet) which keeps your foot from sliding around inside of them. They are very comfortable to wear, and for this type sandal, they are cute. I have a pair and my daughter has a pair and we are enjoying them very much.

These are not your regular Keens. They are more narrow and form fitting. I love wearing them without socks. Next had sneakers I could wear without socks, so I'm going to go with a strong buy.

I ordered one of each style because I wanted to decide which one fit my foot the best. The reviews were good but the best thing is to try them on. He H'2 is narrower than the Whisper and the Hydro's. It is bulkier in look like the Hydro. I usually wear a 8 1/2 in dress shoes and a 9 in tennis shoes. I ordered a 9 and that was the correct length. I have a bunion on my right foot and this shoe was definitely to tight on that foot, but also fitted on my left foot. This shoe would be best for a narrow footed person. They had good arch support and were comfortable otherwise. The Hydro's are wider in the fit, heavier in feel and look but are very comfortable. I think they have the best arch support of the 3 styles. My problem with them is my hammer toe on the toe next to my pinky toe that causes it to ride higher. The hydro has a strap that rubbed a blister on that toe in a very short time of wearing it. Sadly I have to return them because I really liked the arch support and comfortable heel that would be good for long hikes. I also ordered the 9 in this shoe that fit in length well. I hope this helps other decide on the best shoe for them. The Whisper is the shoe I have chosen to keep but feel the 8 1/2 will be the best size. In the 9 I have a full thumbs length from the end of my big toe to the tip of the shoe. The are light weigh, comfortable but not quite as comfortable as the Hydro. There is arch support but not quite as much as the Hydro or H2. i have a old pair of Keens (at least 5 year old) and I love them. I think the Whisper is the closest to them too. I hope this review helps you decide on your best fit. I love the Zappos return policy!!
