Customer Reviews KEEN Whisper

These are the most comfortable walking/exercise shoes I've ever worn. They are like walking on a cloud. They are lightweight and flexible which makes them a dream to wear.

I'll start by saying that prior to purchasing "Whisper," I had never worn Keen before. I also initially thought I would be purchasing Keen's "Clearwater" shoe, because, quite honestly, it was the first shoe I tried on and immediately loved it. However, I decided to try "Whisper" on a whim and noticed two things immediately: "Whisper" was slightly heavier and had more support. Stylistically, it is a little heavier-looking than "Clearwater," mainly because the rubber toe guard comes up farther and the back strap is wider. But because of these features, I felt as though my foot was just a little more secure in than it was in "Clearwater." I did end up choosing "Whisper," mainly because of better arch support. It's just stylish enough that I can wear it without feeling "clunky," especially in the more feminine colors. Can't wait to start out my summer with this great pair of shoes.

I had a pair of Merrells hiking sandals for 10 years that I wore constantly. I loved them but they were old and smelly. For the past three years I tried to replace them with pair after pair of Merrells sandals but nothing was comfortable enough. And then a friend recommended the Keen Whispers to me. I got a pair and they are the most comfortable shoe I have ever owned. I am that crazy lady who bought the same shoe in seven colors so I can wear them every day! Love! And true to size for me despite others suggesting a half size difference. You will not be disappointed with comfort or style.

These are great shoes, but unfortunately I prefer the other footbed by Keen. I will be ordering the Venice which has the "metatomical footbed."

These sandals were true to size, very comfortable right out of the box. They aren't as clunky looking as some Keens, but they still have the roomy toebox and cushy insole. They're just right for walking around my rocky, sandy desert home.

The Keen Whisper shoe is the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. I highly recommend them.

Like these but I ordered the Newport in size 8 at the same time for a perfect fit but these are 1/2 size small despite also being size 8.

I tried 5 different pairs of Keens and for my slightly narrow foot, the whisper was just right. I have high arches so I could have used a bit more arch support, but for the average person this would be fine. They are cushiony and soft and didnt require any break in period. I generally wear a 7.5 in sandals and an 8.5 in closed shoes or boots that require socks. So I took an 8.5 and they fit perfectly. I guess if your between sizes err up a half size or choose what you wear in closed shoes with socks and these will fit you without socks.

These shoes are so comfortable. I have wide-ish, flat feet. When I put them on, I walked and walked. They are perfect and they are my second pair!

These are my favorite go-to sandals. They were comfortable right out of the box, and fit perfectly. It's like wearing a true sandal, but with more foot support and walk-ability. I will be buying another pair.

This is my second pair of Keen Whisper sandals and I am very pleased with the purchase. I've had my first pair for about three years and they were great. I've worn them in Costa Rica, Hawaii, on the beach, hiking and dog walking. Very comfortable. Bought this pair because I love the colors.

These are very comfortable shoes. I can usually only wear Mephisto or Naot shoes because of my neuropathy. However, these worked but I can't wear them for long walks (all day long in a city). They stretch out after a period of time but you can adjust them with the elastic drawstring. I just bought my second pair and would recommend them.

This is my 3rd pair of Keen sandals but I had forgotten sizes run big. Had to return for 1/2 size smaller. Otherwise no complaints, expect these sandals to last 56 years like my other ones did!

I have other Keens so I knew to order 1/2 size up which is equivalent to my tennis shoe size. These are much lighter than other Keens which I love. They are also more form fitting which takes a bit to get used to each summer but it's worth it. After wearing a few times they are very comfortable. These shoes do make my feet look long compared to other shoes. I have the coffee color and the black color. They both go with anything and are very versatile.

Buy these! I got tricked into going on a 47 kilometer hike in the Costa Rican jungle and these were brand new. Not only did they keep my feet comfy I was the only one who ended up without a blister. Great, well made comfy shoes!

Super comfortable, I was very happy about that. They are a good substitute for sneakers in the spring and summer. They are a bit goofy looking...I kind of like that!

This shoe has a very sturdy and non-slip sole, along with protection for your toes if you stumble over rocks while hiking. It provides very good overall support. I love the color. My main complaint is that it's slightly hard to put on - there's elastic all around the heel area that enable you to force your foot into it. I would prefer a Velcro closure - but most Keens don't offer that. Like everything else, I got used to putting them on, and find them very satisfactory for wading in rocky bottom waters or hiking over rough terrain.

Comfy, lightweight, and a nice touch of color made these Keens just perfect for the young woman I bought them for. She had never had a pair of sandals with cushy soles and enclosed toes, but was going to spend some time on a mission trip to Haiti. It was recommended that she have sandals and her flip flops wouldn't do. I have hiked all over St. John in the US Virgin Islands with my Keens. Talk about durability, agility, comfort and protection! It seems Keens would be the best choice for this young woman. It was wonderful to see her delight with her new pair of Keens! She has a somewhat wide foot and had read the reviews saying this Keen was a bit on the small side, so ordered half a size up. They fit perfectly!

I have a horrible time finding comfortable shoes. I have bunions as well as being flatfooted. These are the first shoes that I absolutely love to wear. I gave no pain in my feet after wearing them all day, even to walk several miles for exercise. I found that they were true to size for me. I plan to order several more pairs. Now I have to find nice looking low heel dress shoes that feel as good as these Keens do.

I was a bit lost on what size to order because a few reviewers said the shoes felt a half size smaller, but I went with my regular size rather than going up. I'm happy that I chose not to size up, although half a size bigger would probably have been just fine. These just came in today, so I haven't given them an outdoor trial, but I did walk around the house in them and they're very comfy. Perfect river shoe as they are lightweight, will drain easily and still have to protection for climbing on the slippery rocks.

I have been wearing these shoes non-stop since October 2013! I live in the tropics and wear them as as everyday shoes/sandals. They can get wet hiking on the beach ans will dry off quickly. They are light weight and easy to get on and off. I am about to get my second pair. I would love to know the difference between these and the other similar water shoes.

I bought these shoes for a trip to Hawaii. I wear and 8 M and these shoes fit just right, true to size, they are very comfortable. I saw a lot of others wearing them too. They are clunky and not very attractive, but oh well!

I rarely review items I purchase (I know, I should pay it forward for all those reviews I depend on)...anyway, I bought these for a trip to Africa during the rainy season and for touring around in cape town etc. and I love these shoes. Right out of the box they were so comfortable I never put my sneakers or other sandals on at night...I especially liked the understated brown because other colorful Keens drew too much attention, I thought, to my size 9 wide foot. Problem feet, I might add; poor arches, bunions, metatarsal surgery...these are by far the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn and they dried quickly after my drenching visit to Victoria Falls. Great traction on the bottom too so I felt very confident walking over slippery stone paths around the falls. I'd love it if they came out with an all grey pair so it'll go with my black outfits. Buy these sandals, you won't regret it!
