Customer Reviews KEEN Balboa

Already had these in black. Extremely comfortable and fun to wear. Had to have the brown. Love them!

These are amazing. I've got another pair of slip-on Keen sandals, but wanted a pair that would stay on better for walking. And I like that they look a little different. Less straps than your typical sports sandals. They feel very secure, but quite open and airy at the same time.

Thanks goodness for Zappos and size 10.5, an impossible size to find in any shoe store. Very comfortable and covers my ukky big toe.

I've never found Keens that work for me, because my feet would get hot as soon as I tried them on, and I saw these. I thought they looked weird but ordered them since I needed a new pair of sport sandals, and they're awesome. I've worn them for the last 2 days constantly, both around town and on a moderate hike, and they are comfy! And cool - I can wiggle my toes around to get some air in there, and still feel like my toes are protected. I got the green, and it's a really soft appley green. And of course, a half size bigger - they fit great. Love 'em.

Bought these shoes in black and wore them every day for a year. Then decided I wanted them in brown. I walk miles to and from work every day and am so happy to have found cute shoes that can take a beating. Great for hiking and swimming in rivers too.

Zappos.com is awesome. I like the free shipping that accompanies everything I purchase from them. The Keen sandals are wonderful.

These shoes are so comfy! They do not weigh as much as other Keens, so they are easy to wear. Some comments mentioned how it felt weird to have some toes covered and others not, but I didn't notice any strangeness! Love them.

True to size and comfy from the start. This is my 10th pair of keens and won't be my last!

These shoes felt great with no wearing-in time required. Besides feeling very comfortable, they are really cute.

I bought these shoes for a cruise I took on January 9 through 18. They are comfortable, great for watershore walking but these are not true to size. Size 9 were too big; should have purchased 8 1/2. I wore them in the water so can not return them.

I own several pair of Keens sandals and when I wanted a "stay on" shoe for rougher terrain I couldn't resist this pair. They are really cute, really comfortable and fit true to size and super color too!

Comfortable right out of the box. Liked them so much, I bought another pair.

Just what I was looking for! The shoe to live in on all my warm weather trips, fun and funky. I just spent 8 hours on concrete at the Colorado State Fair and my feet didn't hurt.

Ordered this sandal in Ochre Sunday and had it today, Tuesday, usual great service from Zappos. I put them on and loved them immediately. The color is a lovely soft yellow, the fit is a bit roomy in the toe, but feels fine. I have tendinitis in one leg, one hip higher than the other which throws my gait off and I've been in a great deal of pain, I needed comfortable and supportive summer sneaker type sandals and these fit the bill and are cute too. I also wear a small size, so rely on Zappos wide variety of both shoes and sizes.

I have been suffering with heel pain for several months. Most of my summer sandals do not have great arch support and so the pain was only getting worse. After buying the Balboa, my pain began to lessen each time I wore them. I am now pain free! This is my 5th pair of Keens, but my first sandal. I love them and will be buying more. Zappos too is great. I ordered these shoes online about 9:30 PM EDT and they arrived the next day about 6:00 PM! What more can you ask for?

Love these shoes! Wish I had purchased them sooner. Per earlier reviews I read, I'm glad I went up 1/2 size. They feel great for my walks. They are coming with me on my trip to San Francisco! Love them!

I really like these sandals! I am not really a sandal wearer, but needed some for a rafting trip I was taking. I ordered 2 other less expensive pairs as I didn't want to spend much on shoes I wouldn't wear much. However, the other sandals didn't even compare in comfort to these, so I decided to pay the higher price. I am so glad I did, and I have continued to wear them after the trip too. I like their unique design too.

Love \'em. I saw someone wearing a pair of Keens and then went to your website and bought a pair. Since I got them, I have women stopping me and asking me where I got them. I will buy more.\r\nVery comfortable. My back was fine.

I love these sandals, I would say they felt a slight bit small when I first tried them on and wondered if I should exchange for the next half size larger, but I kept them. I would say they might be a bit smaller than true to size. I do really like them otherwise, have had no problems at all. I wore them out of the box walking a lot on vacation, no blisters or sore feet. I would definitely order more of these or other styles. Good value for the money on this purchase, and free shipping sure helps too. Thanks Zappos!

I love these shoes. I bought them for a trip to Maine and have worn them every day since they arrived. A few days before I got them I did something to my knee. It's not serious but it's achy on the stairs. I wore these for three hours and have had no aches since. On vacation I wore them for extensive walking but did switch out to something heavier for actual hiking. I did get them wet in tidal pools and they dried reasonably quickly. Since I want to have them forever I don't plan on u sing them as a water shoe, just for puddles. They are quirky, cute and I do get compliments on them. I now proudly have the oddest tan lines ever!

My 6th pair of Keens, and the airiest. They don\'t have the tight-over-the-instep feeling of the Whisper I tried on. Same cush as my Venice and Mystics, but in the Citron green, so fun! I\'m taking them to Barcelona with me! And I love that the only stretch part is over the instep, so there\'s no elastic to wear out. Very sturdy construction.

Love the toe protector as I have a tendency to stub my toes on shopping carts. The fit was right-on and the shoe is very comfortable.

Other Keen sandals fit MUCH better. This has a very uncomfortable toe box. Only the big toe got support. I felt that the other toes had no place to align themselves properly. I would have rather had NO toe support!

After returning different style Keen sandals I got these very fast. They look nice and pretty but are tight and uncomfortable. I have wide, short feet with a bunion, and even though I had a pair of Keen sandals for more than 4 years before (was extremely happy) I can't find another pair to fit me. I gave up and purchased my first Chaco sandals and so far so good. I wish Zappos site had and an additional category for people with feet problems, like bunions, very wide/narrow feet etc. so we wouldn't have to return them so often.
