This was the perfect shoe for a trip to Belize, Central America. I used it for walking the town, hiking, water sports and cycling. Very supportive. Once I put them on though, I knew that I needed to wash my feet with soap once I took them off so I didn't have smelly feet. They took overnight to fully dry in an air conditioned space, but if in a humid space a full day was necessary. I erred on the side of a snug fit and I was glad I did. After 16 days of daily non-stop usage, the drawstring cord got a bit stretched out and the shoe really molded to my foot, making any snugness disappear; they were perfect! My husband bought the same sandal and thoroughly enjoyed the good toe protection. For those tan line conscious: we both got "stripe" tan lines on our feet.

Hubby just joined the ranks of Keen devotees with this pair. Zappos service is great, and overnight shipping upgrade was an unexpected bonus! Thank you!

Keen convert! The Newport H2 are amazing shoes. They fit my foot perfectly and as soon as I put these on and started walking, I had the urge to sprint. The first day I used them I wore them on a short hike in the Cascade Mountains with my family. It was a short but muddy hike. I got them dirty, including the straps, and then hosed them off that night and wore them to work the next day on my bus commute where I walk 1+ miles. I have subsequently worn them on two more hikes in the mountains and really like how my foot is low to the ground and the sole provides the support and cushion that makes any hike a joy. I won't wear my hiking boots now. I bought them to take on my trip to Florida and these will be my main shoes for the trip. They will also be my main shoe for my boat. I have a 23' skiff that I use on Puget Sound for freediving and the Newports with a nice wool sock fit the bill. Maybe not in the winter, but I plan to test that out. Love 'em!

Thanks to my wife, I discovered Keen sandals this past summer. I've joined her as a convert, and now have two pairs. I practically lived in them during the summer, and am reluctant to give them up as cold weather approaches. I tried them with socks and so far, so good. I need arch supports in all my shoes, but for some happy reason, have found that I don't need them in the Keens. The sandals also give me the extra width I need. I took my wife's advice and ordered the sandals a half-size larger than my normal 10.5 size in sneakers. That worked great. We've bought a lot of shoes through Zappos and are completely satisfied.

I love Keen sandals. They fit my foot like a glove and have good arch support. I don\'t understand why the shoes don\'t work as well for me?

Zappos Core Value #10: Be Humble Yep! I wear woman's shoes. Humbling! If the shoe fit... So I bought a pair of Keen Newport Sandals - Women's - Black size 11 on August 14, 2004, they still wear well and I wear them for all purpose, you'll see me kickin' a pair off if you visit my tube page and view a few beach kite flying vids, but back to this brand. Now the only reason I ordered a new pair is that I snapped the quick lock band on my old pair while insulating an attic; the Keen brand has held up and provide excellent support and surefootedness, which grants this brand my loyalty. From painting to plumbing, to delving deep into an open computer case, from jet ski, to weather station maintenance on my roof, from opening a door with my toe, to shopping, or keeping my feet off cold tile floor they are on. 5+ years. Just put on my new set of Keen Newport H2 Black Olive/Deep Lichen's and having measured my foot with a seamstress tape at centimeters, measured 26.5 cm., which means by the chart I could have ordered a Men's US 9.5 or Women's 11 as per the chart, yet I followed the users advice here. Women's US Euro UK Inches CM 11 41-42 9 10.5" 26.7 Men's US Euro UK Inches CM 9.5 42-43 9 10.4375" 26.7 I ordered Men's US 10.5, full size larger than measured and they fit like the old Newport, and they even match up sole roll and heel placement. I'd like to see more stock in the women's 11.5 and 12, as the colors and styles have more breadth. Those Keen Venice H2 light green/yellow fade would look great with me flying off the ground with my kite, or boosting with the Jet ski. As for Zappos! How can you ever expect more from the business that defines customer satisfaction?

Keen Newports are fantastic. very comfortable. Great support outdoors and protection for toes. They drain very quickly. The best sandals I have had. As usual Zappos has great service. To my door in South Louisiana in two days.

These are very comfortable right out the box. I thought the uppers would be stiff but they were fine and are actually softening up nicely. The bottoms are very cumfortable and provide good support. They have a lot a cushion to them but don\'t allow hard surfaces to push up into your foot. They look wide on your feet but they don\'t feel that way. Should last a long time with the vibram tread. I\'d buy them again.

They feel great and are very comfortable. Great stylish look, too. I usually wear between a 9.5 or a 10. I originally tried these in a 10 and they were way too tight. I would recommend ordering a pair of H2\'s at least a 1/2 size larger than normal. I know that these are made with some type of anti-odor material in the soles, but it is not helping. I think because the sandals are more closed than a regular sandal, it is causing my feet to sweat more. The odor has been noticeable, but I don\'t care. They feel great!

I bought these for my boyfriend because I hated the tennis shoes he was wearing for casual wear. He loves them. Have not seen the tennis shoes since. He is a barefoot, flip flop sort of guy and he said these are the next best thing with the protection of a shoe. Wanted to know if he could wear them in the winter with socks. I said sure if you want to look like a geek. Just buy yourself some Keen boots!

Recently purchased these for our trip to Maui. Previously, my husband purchased a pair of sandals whose brand name will remain anonymous, but let\\\'s just say, I warned him they wouldn\\\'t be as comfortable as a pair of Keens. Did he listen? He\\\'s a guy; of course not! Not until his best friend ranted over his. So, long story short, I ordered a pair of Keen Newport H2 and he loved them! They went from ocean to stream to rocky cliff; all over the island right out of the box. They even went out to dinner a couple of times! So glad he FINALLY listened to me!

Love 'em. Have worn them fishing on the Florida coast and rafting on the Salmon River. Very comfortable, thick soles keep the sand out, but if it does get inside, it is difficult to remove. I ordered a half size larger and it was perfect. I usually get size 11D. These are 45. Will buy again. Thanks for the awesome service!

I love these shoes! I am the director of a summer camp in NJ and some of my former staff raved about them. I got them for camp this year and ended up wearing them almost everyday through the dirt, the rain, the mud- everything. they stood up to a ton of conditions and appear to still be in great shape, even if they do need a good washing.

WOW! These are absolutely awesome shoes. We have been customers of Zappos for many years now, but this is the first time we purchased Keen Newport H2 sandals. They are very comfortable, even for several hours of hiking. They are true to size and the soles are tacky enough to do some incline walking without slipping. Very good product and highly recommended!

I've had these Keen shoes for almost a month now. It's the only shoe I've worn since I got them. I put away my tennis shoes; I put away my Brinkenstock sandals. They have become my everyday shoes. The inner sole is made out of rubber and at first it takes a little while to get used to having bare skin in contact with it. I got over it in a day or two. When we have beautiful weather like we do in the summer, there's no reason to wear anything else. I've used them on bike rides, hikes and at the office. Last weekend I traveled with them and they are easy at the airport.

This sandle rocks. I can wear it to the beach, walk in the surf, rinse the sand off and go shopping. It dries quickly and always looks brand new.

These sandals are fantastic, very comfortable, and very stylish. I wear a size 17, so I was pretty happy to find something like this in my size. I\'d also like to thank Zappos, I did have a problem early on where the stitching went out on the sandals, but Zappos provided a replacement pair immediately. The replacement pair seemed slightly smaller than the original pair, but they actually felt better than the originals, so I\'m happy. I also agree with those that say that sweating can be a slight issue in them, but nothing terrible for me. I tell everyone about Zappos, especially those with big feet. Great selection, great prices, and bar none the best customer service of any online store I\'ve ever dealt with. I\'ve bought my last four pair of shoes from Zappos, and I\'ll continue to be a loyal customer.

I bought these for my dad, he is in his 60s and loves his crocs that I gave him last year. I explained that these are way more comfortable and now he is a believer. My whole family has these sandals, they are comfy, weather-proof and unlike crocs, I don\'t think they warp my kids\' feet. You don\'t have to curl your toes to keep these on. They are very durable. i would get this kind over the older ones that have the velcro strap that goes across the top, these are easier to put on. i think keen phased out the old kind, though. super comfy, great walking or hiking sandals!

Great shoe for the boat. Will not slip when wet and does not leave any marks. If you are walking in soft sand it will fill up on the toe area. Walk on the wet sand and no problems. Much better than flip-flops.

I bought these shoes for my husband for his birthday. He wore them the first time all day at Epcot. No break-in period required! It poured while we were at Epcot and at times we were walking in ankle deep water. He was so glad to have his Keens on and not have to walk around in wet socks and sneakers like I did. I\'m ordering a pair for myself ASAP.

Very comfortable and versatile athletic shoe. The most comfortable and multi-useful shoe I have ever owned. Recommend this shoe to anyone who needs a shoe that can go from land to sea, give you support and comfort.

Purchased Keen Newport H2 in Bison from Zappos while vacationing here in the US. The service from Zappos is outstanding! This is the most comfortable sandal I have ever worn! Thoroughly impressed. Nice fit. Interesting design. No break-in issues at all. Great for use on trails. Waterproof! Received several compliments and curious stares from people here and abroad. Highly recommended.
