I love these shoes. I followed the advice in some of the reviews and ordered half a size bigger than I normally wear but they are too big so I will be exchanging them. Oh well it is not summer yet anyway so I guess I can wait...

Love these shoes. Waiting for the new summer colors. I wear these with socks at home because I have tile floors. These shoes provide support and comfort and no achy feet!

Zappos really knows their stuff. I'm always a size 8, and they said in the sizing guide I would need an 8.5, so of course I thought they had no clue what they were talking about and ordered an 8 anyway. Well, they were right, and when I called asking how to return, they overnighted me another pair and didn't charge me extra shipping to return the first pair (once I had them side by side to double check). Amazing customer service. Trust their sizing guides. I haven't been able to really wear this pair yet because it's so cold, but I wanted a new pair for trekking and kayaking when it got warm since my Vibram 5fingers had a big hole on the side, and hopefully it will be too warm for my big dingo boots. These 8.5s are still slightly longer than I'd prefer, but the elastic cinch does the trick and the 8s would not have fit anyway.

I bought these sandals and planned on wearing during a trip to Glacier National Park. I got a ton more use than I thought - I wear them everywhere. They are comfortable and are awesome for walking or even hiking (if not too rocky). Of course, my whole family followed suit - now everyone has a pair.

Love these. I wear them instead of hiking boots when I can get away with it! Purchased them in "beet" red color - and so happy I did! Easy to wash too.

Bought as a gift for my mother who has a very wide foot and a high in-step. I also got her the Newport H2's b/c I wanted to make sure I had choices for her in case one didn't fit as well. Glad I did! While I liked the look of the Newports better, she could not get them on her foot with her high in-step. These Whispers were very roomy for her wide foot and she was able to slip them over her in-step without a problem. I really like both of the shoes, but the Whispers were the ones that worked for her. She's very excited about them and found them to be very comfortable. As many reviewers suggested, I did go ahead and order a 1/2 size larger than she normally wears.

Definitely order a half size larger in these sandals. I normally wear an 8 1/2-9 in shoes and 9 1/2 in athletic sneakers. Based on other reviews I ordered a 9 1/2 and these and they fit perfect! A 9 would have been too small. Much more comfortable than I thought and the back does not rub at all!

This is my second pair. Wore the first pair in all kinds of weather and for extended periods of time with no discomfort. Will need to get another pair in a different color

This shoe is true to size! Prior to buying, I read reviews that said it runs large, so I bought two pairs -- one in my regular size and one half size up. After trying both on, I realized that the way the shoe fastens, it always keeps your heel snug against the back of the shoe, so it may "appear" to be running small. But what I noticed is that when you size up, the toe room becomes very roomy and your toes actually won't be protected by the rubber part in the front and leaving you vulnerable for stubbing your toes. So whether you decide to buy your regular size or size up, I recommend paying attention to the toe protection (which is the most important for this type of shoe). This was a great buy for me, shoe was light but felt very sturdy, well made, supportive and protective. I got these for my trip to Hawaii and it was great for hiking/sporting outdoors when it's hot out -- in my opinion, it's the perfect combo between a sneaker and a sandal (who wants hot sweaty feet?). While traveling, I've seen a lot of people wear this type of shoe and I have to say, I feel like this particular style is the most attractive I've seen. Others that I've seen looked very bulky and ugly, but this shoe looks more stylish and not so bulky.

I used them throughout a trip to Israel and Palestine on pretty rough terrain and on the streets. They held up well despite hot and humid weather smelling wise. Another great Keen addition to my collection.

I was really disappointed with these. They were too long and narrow for my foot. My heel constantly slid out the back of the sandal. I hoped to break them in but no such luck.

I have narrow feet, and these adjustable sandals fit great. I love Zappos because I can find the exact right size (bought similar shoes from a brick & mortar store a few years ago, and had to go up a 1/2 size because that's all they had in stock). I have low ankles, and these fit fine.

I spend the summer in Keen Whisper. Great travel shoe that never creates discomfort, no matter how far you walk. Great for my narrow heel - they do not slip and fit better than any other keen for my 7 1/2 size foot.

Good shoe. I wanted a sandal type shoe that could handle getting wet but also had toe protection. This does the job. The toe cover kinda makes the shoe look a bit bulky at the toe but it's okay. The only bad part is that sometimes small pebbles get stuck in the shoe and it's hard to get them out without taking your foot partly out of the sandal.

These are the most comfortable walking sandals I've ever worn. I took them on a trip that involved a lot of walking on different types of terrain and they were all I needed. And they don't look goofy with socks.

Great comfort. But, you should know - the elastic laces break after awhile. I had just been replacing the shoes, but last time - I just tied the ends back together.

I love this shoe. It is so comfortable and has become one of my favorites. Perfect for swimming in lakes with lots of rocks and walking through rain forests. Handles steep and wet surfaces like a dream. Also looks good with socks without looking very nerdy.

I purchased my first pair of Keen shoes at a local retailer. Loved them so much that I wanted another pair, but the pair I bought was the only color combo available. Then a friend who is a regular on Zappos, told me to check this website. I did and have been very pleased with the quick and efficient service I have received. I will probably order this style in yet another color. I have a narrow foot and was surprised how well these fit. I will say the "Owyhee" was wider and I returned them with no hassle and purchased my 2nd pair of "Whisper."

Very comfortable shoe, and I have problem feet. I wore them all day with no pain for the first time. I usually wear a size 10 in most shoes, these were marked size 10, but they were european size 40.5. so the first pair I got were a little big. the second pair, European size 40 fit perfectly. If your feet are a little wide, these are nice shoes.

This is my 2nd pair of Keen sandals. Bought my first pair larger than my normal size as recommended but they always looked and felt like clown shoes and I never wore them. I bought this Whisper Keen at my normal size and they fit great and look better on my feet. Very comfortable while walking on vacation and light hiking excursions. Wore thin socks with them while going through airports on travel days.

I bought these just days before a trip to Thailand. They were comfy and cool from day one, easy on and off. I call them my grasshopper shoes, bright and sunny. They don't mind getting wet. Good arch support, roomy in the toe, and my little toes don't escape through the webbing. I wish the sole was gray.

I needed a new pair of Keen sandals ASAP for a trip and couldn't find any locally due to the season. I ordered these Keen sandals from Zappos and they were perfect. The shoes fit like a glove, great color and they arrived immediately - the day before I was to leave on my trip. Can't wait for summer to return to wear them again.

I bought these shoes for my mom. She always wanted a pair of Keen! They were sent to her in quick time and she just loves them. Actually says she forgets to take them off when she gets home, which is one of the first things she usually does!
