Customer Reviews KEEN Kids Whisper (Toddler/Little Kid)

We gave these to my daughter as a 3rd birthday present and she loves them! We got compliments right away -- they are so cute. And I like how sturdy and protective they are, in addition to being flexible enough for her growing feet.

My 3 year old loves these. They are colorful and do not rub her feet. We had Keen H2 last year, which were a hit as well. They have held up well. We have not had odor issues with these.

Keen never seems to fail me. After years of buying knock-off types of these shoes I finally bought the real thing and they are great. My daughter wore them comfortably right out of the box. They look cute and are summer sandals that encourage actually running and playing without worrying about hurt toes!

These shoes are perfect for active toddlers and preschoolers during the summer months. They can get wet and dirty, and they clean right up. The closed toe is a plus. Ordering the same shoe for my toddler.

They seem to run a little big, so we had to reorder to get the fit right. But, very cute and comfortable. My kids put their pairs on and went running around all day in comfort. Very nice that they are waterproof.

Perfect lightweight sandals for kids. My daughter wears hers every day! They offer support and comfort for kids on the go. Would recommend to anyone in the market for a kids sandal!

These worked great for our 4 year old daughter. Purchased for a cruise, needed something that would work from beach to onboard activities. These worked great!

We have these shoes for our girls (and me) and really enjoy them! Girls have gone through two sizes in two seasons and mine have lasted two seasons as well, but I must note that the wear you see will be a deterioration of the footbed over two years. I consider it to be a worthy investment since I wore them so much - and would have worn any other shoe out as well (and it would have shown). My shoes still look terrific and feel great, but I'm hoping to replace them this year for better overall support from a new footbed. If these were running shoes, they'd be past their useful age/wear time, but I'm the only one who can tell. As for where to wear them...anywhere. They're fun for vacations and so versatile! The girls wear out their velcro before anything else. As for that...Zappos customer service is top of the line. They replaced the worn velcro shoes my youngest had and didn't require lots of documentations - just the returned shoes. As for sizing...last year, my oldest required a size 13 athletic shoe, but only a 12 in these. Same discrepancy was evident for my youngest. It wasn't the case with my adult sized shoes, though. Perhaps the difference is based on them not wearing any socks to take up any space in the shoe. Either way - consider ordering a little smaller so they're not sloppy on their feet (thereby causing blisters).

My daughter wears a 13W and cute girly wide shoes are hard to find. This is an adorable shoe and she wears this pair all the time. Great traction, which is a must she loves to scale rock walls and play so she doesn't have to hold back. Great for active kids!

My 9 year old daughter likes the comfort and color. Seems like a very durable shoe and the velcro works nicely.

These shoes are durable, comfortable and easy to wear for my 2 year old daughter. The velcro makes them easy to put on and take off. She usually wears a toddler size 7, but the 8 fit her best in these Keens.

My 6 years old daughter loves them! She wears them all day long at the summer camp. Great fit. Very comfortable.

My 3 and 4 year old daughters love these Keen sandals, and so do I! They put them on when we go for little hikes and also at summer camp, where they need to have closed toes. Very comfortable and still cute!

Great shoe for kids! This shoe can go from a water park to an amusement park without ever coming off the foot. Comfortable and easy to get on and off. My 4 year old loves her new Keens!

Beautiful color. I like that this keen isn't as bulky as the newport style.

Keen always makes great shoes! I got this for my 5-year-old, still on a bigger side(size 11), but she will grow into it. It's slightly heavier than I thought. The Velcro part was too short leaving too much room around. So I sewed on extra Velcro, and it fits tighter on my child now. This style is more girly than Newport 2 and we like that, but we wish it fits a little better.

As Keens go they are a good quality. They have a bit of a rise on the ankle. I could not tell from the picture - or did not completely notice. So they do not fit my daughter as well as other Keens that I have bought.

This shoe is great. I bought these intending to buy the same sandal my daughter had last year but didn't realize that it was constructed differently. This one has a pull string to tighten the width but the buckle/velcro is higher up so it is harder to put on but my 3 year old is still able to put it on by herself so it doesn't bother me so much.

A favorite of my daughter's. I must say, however, that I'm very unhappy with the sizing. Had the shoes in blue in size 12, so I ordered them (in pink, this time) in size 13 to make sure my daughter has something to wear when she outgrows the size 12. Well, the size 13 pink are the exact same size as the size 12 blue.

We normally get a lot of wear of Keen Kids. This pair fell apart after wearing 1 week at the shore. The color instantly faded after just one time in the water, then the entire shoe just started to come apart. Plus my daughter got blisters from them on the top of the root. they are too high up at the strap. Very disappointed! Returning for refund.

I bought these for my 7 yo daughter thinking they would be her go-to shoes for the summer. I have bought many pairs of Keens for my four kids and have always been very happy. But these sandals were a different story, her feet got awful blisters. I bandaged them up thinking she might have to break these in but they continued to cause blisters. My daughter was so disappointed and ended up abandoning them for a cheap pair of flip-flops for the rest of the summer. :( Bummer.
