Customer Reviews KEEN Sydney II

Most comfort ever - I have been working as a chef, 10 hr. days. On my feet the whole time. I needed comfortable shoes for this kind of work. My feet were sore all the time. I discovered Keen's Sydney 11. Thank my lucky stars. My feet were happy again. As soon as I put them on, I knew I was saved from the hurting, aching feet syndrome. Thank you for creating the best shoe I have in my collection. I love you Keen.

Yet another fabulous Keen shoe! I've got 3 pairs of Keen slides from Zappos that I live in. They wear like iron! I'm in the Northeast and I wear these babies all year round. That's how comfy they are. Now, finally I have found a closed back shoe that offers the same easy comfort as the clogs. The Sidney II is as kind to my poor sore paws as the slides are. I have bunions, wide feet, and now some new heel problems. If you also have sensitive feet or foot problems, you MUST try Keens! Zappos’ incredibly generous return policy makes it easy for you to find the right fit. Try these shoes! The cushion on this shoe is outstanding and so bouncy, and the cushioned area at heel does not rub my narrow heel. These are hitting the Big Apple with me next month and I'm planning on putting on many miles. I do buy a full size larger in Keen so these shoes don't touch my toes at all. The asymmetrical design adds a cute edgy touch and hits at a comfortable place in the foot, not confining even for a foot that tends to swell a bit. I love me some Keens! --faithful Zappos customer and fan.

Cute Maryjanes! I recently fractured my left foot so I needed a shoe that I could wear on my right while I hobble on crutches. I love this shoe (I guess I'll find out how the other one feels in a few weeks!) It's cute, very comfortable and I like the fact its waterproof. Looks great with summer casual skirts, gauchos, or shorts.

I love this shoe!! It's comfortable, cute, durable, and goes with everything. I bought this pair for a trip to NYC next week- I haven't taken them off since opening the box!

Super All around Shoe - This is my second pair of Keen's. Love them! I purchased the Sydney a couple of months ago in the Garnet color. The color is a brick red and goes with everything. Looks great with shorts, capris, khaki's, skirts....wearable as casual or dressy. They are going to be perfect for the fall. Bought a half size larger as recommended and am glad I did. The fit is perfect. Will buy more Keen's!!! Zappos service was excellent, as always.

Keen Sydney Review - Finally - I have a pair of shoes that comfortably accommodate my blasted orthotics. And they don't look like little ole lady shoes. I don't want to think of the money I've spent trying to find shoes that would fit with my orthotics. I have back and knee problems so I have to look for specific soles that are supportive as well as room for the orthotic. I am sold on these shoes. Zappos is great! This is my 4th order from them. The other 3 shoes I ordered just weren't right so I mailed them back. Thank you Zappos for providing this wonderful shoe. Thank you Keen for making it. Now I'm going to save up for another pair. I'm cleaning out my closet of worthless shoes that I can't wear. I'd rather have 2-3 good pairs of shoes than a closet full of uncomfortable shoes! Hallelujah!

Very cute shoe - I was a little skeptical when I ordered these, as I am a size 9 and I thought they would look huge once I put them on. However, I was pleasantly surprised. They are adorable and soo comfortable. I love the contrast stitching and they look great with jeans and capris. As always, I love shopping with Zappos - enormous selection and I get my order within a few days.

"Corpse Bride" Cute & Funky - What a great shoe! It is a comfort mary jane with lots of attitude. The black shoe with its three x's stitched on top kind of puts me in mind of Tim Burton's animation (think "Corpse Bride"). For a very high instep as I have it may cut into your foot on top, but removing the insole goes a long way in correcting the problem. It is about as wide as Birkenstock's regular width is which will be sufficient for most. I do intend to see if I can have these stretched just a bit by a shoe repair place so they will be 100% comfortable, but overall I am very pleased with the look and feel of them. I did order a half size up from my normal size-I think you would HAVE to order a half or full size up as everyone recommends. They look great in the summer with no tights/socks but I can see they'll be just precious with cotton or wool tights and skirts or dresses in the fall/winter. As I expected from reading reviews, they arrived very quickly from Zappos and I am thrilled with the service I received.

Happy about Keen Sydney - I first bought a pair of Sydney 2 but they have a little less rubber on bottom of shoe and the removable insole is not as well padded as the plain Keen Sydney and I returned those. I don't know if the Sydney 2 is to replace the one I am reviewing, but going down in quality is not the way to go. I will keep these.

If you have bunions, these are for you. After many hours and dollars spent, these are the best I have found for standing on your feet all day, ten hours a day. Great support, wear with skirts or slacks, need more colors. Btw, my foot measures size seven, but I normally wear an 8.5 due to size of bunions. I got these in the 8.5 but may try 7.5 for next time. In other words, they run short, but wide around the toes. Maybe the perfect shoe built for my somewhat mutated foot. Zappos rocks.

My wife loves them! Ordered a 1/2 size larger than normal. My wife is a pharmacist and on her feet all day. She always wanted a pair of Keens but wanted to try them on. I finally just ordered them and now she has 2 pair. Zappos- excellent service as always.

A comfortable sneaker cleverly disguised as a dress shoe! I chose these shoes because I needed to find dressy looking shoes that were also fit for running to catch buses and climbing slippery stairs on rainy days. So far, they've far exceeded my most optimistic predictions. They look plenty dressy, thanks especially to the decorative seam near the toe. The traction is excellent, even on wet surfaces. The best two features are the padding (on the back of the shoe and under the strap --- places where most dressy shoes end up cutting my feet!) and the hidden elastic on the strap (which prevents the shoe from feeling too tight while walking fast). All in all, a perfect shoe for those whose work requires both looking somewhat dressed up, and being able to move in comfort and with agility!

If the shoe fits, wear it! My Sydney’s are wonderful. My wide, high-arched foot is finally happy and comfortable, out of hiking boots! They look fine even with a skirt. Excellent service. Pleasant personnel.

Great Shoes out of the box! I bought these shoes two days before a trip to Europe. I knew we would be doing a lot of walking and needed a pair of shoes I could get by with wearing capris and maybe a skirt. They were super comfortable. No break in time needed. I wear 8 1/2 but bought the 9's. They fit perfectly.

A comfortable shoe with unique design. This is the third pair of Keen's I have bought in a year. I like the look of the Sydney, with the stitching across the top and Maryjane styling. The shoe was comfortable from the first time worn. I am able to put my orthotics in and wear comfortably. The sole of the shoe is firm and cushioning at the same time. I find my feet do not tire in Keen's shoes. Great shoe and great service from Zappos.

Sydney Love - I am completely happy with my new Sydney's. I have a wide toe box and a high in-step so closed shoes often don't fit me well. The Sydney style fits me so well that the first time I wore them; I felt no pinches or pressure at all. In addition to the comfort, they look great with skirts or pants!

Keen on Keen - Wow, these are comfortable and so lightweight! These were the first pair of Keen's that I purchased but certainly will not be my last. I did take people's advice and ordered a half size up and I'm glad that I did. This is the second pair of shoes that I ordered through Zappos-great service and I have been telling my friends about them!

Shoe rater - Great shoes for the most part, very comfortable. Keep in mind that they do run a half size small. Only other complaint is that they look worn out pretty fast after not completely excessive use.

Cool and comfortable - These shoes are very comfortable, and with my orthotics give good support. I have had many compliments on them.

These are the best! I have crippled feet from botched surgery, so shoe comfort is critical to me. I love this shoe because it looks like a sporty Mary Jane and yet I can remove the footbed for special orthotics.

Get the cutest Maryjane ever, your feet will thank you - A very cute Maryjane style, got 2 pairs, black and light blue, only thing I had to do, was build up the foot bed, as there is a lot of depth to this shoe, I think orthotic users would have plenty of room.

Comfortable as slippers - Feel great. They're some of my favorites.

Great shoe! These shoes are the best for comfort! I wore them right after I bought them for the entire day. Definitely keepers!

Perhaps the most comfortable shoe I've ever owned. I saw other people wearing this shoe, and thought "How cute." Little did I know that this shoe was extraordinarily comfortable, lightweight, and kept my feet cool, too. I walk a lot and need comfortable and cute shoes, and this is the one. I am shocked and thrilled by how comfortable these are!

5*SHOE - I now have five pairs, in preparation for when they stop making these! What WILL I do?! I have P.F. and arthritis on the side of my foot because of a broken toe, and my feet are feeling better every day. I have put a lot of miles on these shoes during our cruises and even use them for my daily walks. I even use them here in Alaska during the winter; they sure are cute with my funky socks! And they are holding up really well. What can I say, I LOVE THESE!!
