Customer Reviews KEEN Sydney II

These are currently my favorite shoes - This shoe is really cute on, and comfortable. I like the cushion on the strap, the little "x"s, and just the way it looks. I just slip them on, no need to use the buckle. I have the lichen but I would get the shale if I didn't already have a pair!

Great, but... I've had my shoes for about a year and everything is great except the color fades A LOT. My black shoes are now grayish and nothing seems to help – cleaning, etc... I would recommend getting a color other than black.

Love the Sydney II - Comfortable right out of the box. Ordered a half size larger and they fit perfectly. Great Zappos service, helpful customer reviews - my feet are very happy!

Happy feet - I am very happy and comfortable in my new "school shoes". They are perfectly comfortable; I can stand and work on cement floors all day and still look professional. Very pleased to find a 10.5 as Keens do tend to run a bit small as many happy wearers know.

Love my Keens! These shoes are the best! They are both feminine and sporty at the same time. They look great with skirts for work and are ready to take out hiking off-road. I can't even remember life before these shoes.

Unbelievable - The 1st priority - THANK YOU Zappos customers who faithfully write reviews. I always read the reviews before a purchase - the reviews are extremely valuable. My doctor recommended Keens for me to wear on my upcoming vacation. I ordered 4 different pairs, but only the Sydney II fit my feet perfectly. Since I am diabetic, my shoes must fit properly and not irritate my feet in any place. The Sydneys allow plenty of room in the toes, width, and overall length. I ordered my normal shoe size, which was accurate in the Sydney fit. The first day I wore them without socks - and I did not have one problem! Good support and great comfort.

My new favorite shoes. I love these! They match my casual style perfectly. They have ultimate comfort and fit. Love, love, love them!

Sydney II - I love my Sydney’s so much that I've bought a second pair! They are incredibly comfortable, don't need to be broken in and feel great even after hours of walking on cobblestone streets and trudging up and down stairs and hillsides. I bought my first pair 1/2 size larger, but the second is my actual size, as I didn't find they run small. Not only are they comfortable, they also look great.

Very comfortable - As have many others, I ordered these shoes for an upcoming trip to Europe (we leave in a couple weeks). I 1st ordered a 9 (the size I wear) and they were a little tight, so I went up to a 9.5 and they were much better. Zappos is great with their free shipping and returns. The top part of shoe was a little tight at the top of my foot the first week or so, but nothing painful. They have definitely loosened and are so comfortable. I've been wearing them around in preparation for our trip and do not have any complaints. I figured they would be a perfect shoe to trek around, Italy, France and London for.

excellent fit - This is THE shoe if you want to walk all day! Ultra-comfort for working on your feet or bopping around town running errands. The grip is excellent for slippery surfaces as well.

Perfect for vacation - I followed the advice in other reviews and bought the shoe a half size larger than I usually wear. These were the perfect shoes to bring on vacation. They are dressy enough to go just about any where you want, but comfortable enough to wear hiking.

Keens rock - I stand all day at work and the Keen Sydney II is great! They are comfortable and look snappy, too. I would highly recommend this shoe.

Keen Sydney II - I love the appearance of these shoes! Unfortunately, they were too narrow for my wide feet. I ordered these along with the Seattle and the Calistoga in my usual size, planning to keep the pair that fit me best. Besides the wide forefoot, I also have a very high arch. The Sydney was the only one of the 3 I would truly call a B width; the Calistoga fits more like a C and the Seattle a D. Other than the width, I really liked them, though.

Walking on Air - I love these shoes! The only con would be the squeaking sound they make when wearing them without socks. That is a small price to pay for the comfort these shoes bring.

Good Shoe for Walking - Bought this shoe to wear while on vacation in Paris and France. This super comfortable shoe is amazing for walking all day long! Fit true to size and has definitely spoiled me for wearing any other shoe while sightseeing!

Keen Sydney II - Like a slipper! This shoe is incredibly comfortable. I was surprised that it fit after reading the other reviews... I was nervous that I ordered the wrong size. I usually wear a 6 in Keens, but ordered a 5.5 in this shoe after reading about the Calistoga. I decided to get the Sydney and ordered the half size lower, but didn't read some of the reviews. Anyway, it fits perfectly. I have a little wider foot, too and it still fits. (So...go with your instinct I guess!) It is very cute on and will go with skirts and pants. Came overnight! Love Zappos!!!

Love the Sydney! This is an incredibly comfortable shoe as I think all Keens are. I have been complimented on it for its style. I recently attended a 2-week conference which required a lot of walking every day. These were stylish enough to wear to the classes and meetings and provided great comfort. Note that I sent the first pair back and ordered a 1/2 size larger. Strongly encourage you to order 1/2 size larger!

The super-comfortable Sydney II - The Sydney II is very comfortable. They're especially good for travel, because you can be in them for long stretches of time, they're easy to get off and on at the airport, and they’re waterproof and are cute enough to go to most places. The strap is well-padded as is the back. I have one minor problem with them: the edge that goes over the top of your foot is too close (other reviewers have also mentioned this) and it can cut in a bit. You can put standard insoles in the Sydney, but you may have to wear a Band-Aid on the top of your foot until that top edge stretches out enough. I'm happy with a half-size up--it leaves room but doesn't slip off and feels great. I wear them often and would buy another pair.

Keen Sydney II - I love Keens!! I am a server in a restaurant, and Keens are a life saver for me. These are very cute, and I get compliments on them constantly. They're good for skirts or pants, and unlike other Keens, the Mary Jane styles are very true to size. I live in Alaska and couldn't find this particular style in any store up here, so I turned to Zappos once again. Sometimes it takes forever for me to get packages up here, but as usual, I got my shoes from Zappos within two days. Keens rule. Zappos rules.

Great Shoes - As a teacher-- these shoes are perfect. They were comfortable right from the start and I can wear them all day without any pain. I wasn't used to paying almost 100 dollars for a pair of shoes, but these were totally worth it.

Another Great Keen! This is a very attractive shoe! Keens are usually a bit kinda funky, but this is one style that dresses up! Keens are the most comfortable shoes and this style is excellent too! I like these better than my BIRKS!

On the edge - Sweet shoe but the fit for me is right 'on the edge'. I ended up returning for half size up. I think this will be more room and will work out ok. I will wear the shoe with and without socks. If I did not plan to wear socks the reg. size might have worked.

Perfect fit! Just arrived today. Fit is perfect, extremely comfortable, cute looking, and sturdy build. Quite surprised as I wasn't expecting to like these so much. Extra plus is I can wear these without socks!

Bravo! Comfortable and good looking walking shoe. They are my primary touring shoe for my Baltic vacation. Also - Zappos is the gold standard when it comes to internet shopping.

Dress it up with Sydney II - 'Love my Keens! I was looking for Keens to femme up my tomboy style and wear with dark black and dark brown slacks. 'Glad I found the Sydney II at Zappos. Perfect for my dressier slacks and capris, they're comfortable and pretty with bare feet or nylons or lightweight trouser socks. They have a more snug fit on top than the Calistogas, so orthotics are out, but the support and comfort are great, especially with the soft strap and heal rim. So, I wear my Calistogas for long days and long walks and save my Sydney II for special occasions. Colors are excellent -- darker and crisper shades than the Calistoga brown and black colors, so they're more versatile as a dress shoe. Another great shoe for my Keen collection!
