Just let me say love these! I brought these sandals to take to Orlando in August. I walked all over Universal Studios and my feet and legs were not hurting! Went to Wet and Wild, wore them in the pools (they can take water) and they still were fabulous. This sandal is a must have. I will buy more.

I am a beach-loving girl who lives in flip flops, but sometimes the activity at hand calls for a shoe that stays put, and these sandals do exactly that! They have the cool and comfy feel of a flip flop, but with extra straps to keep them on your feet, they won't slide around when you are doing a lot of walking on uneven terrain. And, to top it all off, they are really cute on your feet! Just the other day, a lady at the zoo commented on just how cute and feminine they are, when so many other sport sandals look kind of unflattering on your feet. They are super lightweight, water-friendly and cause no rubbing or blisters. What more can I say? I ordered a second pair the day after I first wore these!

The best! And that should say it all, but readers want more, I realize, so: this shoe is incredibly light and comfortable. Its straps are easily adjustable. It has great grip, for walking on rocky shore, and good enough arch support for walking in general. Everyone who has seen me in these shoes immediately asks, "Where did you get them." And that really does say it all.

Fantastic fit at first, but the thin fabric straps have stretched out so much that the shoe now flops around my feet instead of holding tight. I've had to adjust the velco to within the last 1cm of contact so that it looks ridiculous how much is hanging past. It was nice that Keen tried to make a more dainty design but the fabric straps just don't hold up to movement. Sadly a waste of money an a shoe retired after half a season

I love these shoes. I took them to Mexico for a winter break vacation and they were great. They are very comfortable and good looking. I have narrow feet but the ankle strap and heel strap are both adjustable so they worked well.

Love these shoes. Brought them on vacation and walked miles in them without and sore spots. Easy to slip on and off. Great in the sand and water. Will be looking for a second pair!

These are even cuter in person! I just opened the box and am thrilled. I ended up buying two sizes because of the reviews, and I'm glad I did. Without a doubt, order these in a half size up! I always wear an 8, sometimes a 7-1/2 in sandals, but the 8-1/2 work best. My toes were falling off the sides with the 8. The buckle is difficult, as reported, but I recommend unclasping it and gently squeezing the prongs to work out some of the stiffness. It doesn't seem like it's going to be an issue. I'll be wearing these in the house tonight, but I'm excited to wear them out and about!

Nice sandal. I chose a half size larger based on other comments and I am glad I did. I usually wear a 9, but the 9.5 fit comfortably. The shoe is a tad narrow. I have a medium-slightly wide foot and it was just barely wide enough. If you have a wide foot, these will probably be too narrow. The straps are very pretty and I like that they are adjustable behind the heel and at the ankle. I agree with other comments that the clasp is a pain and if you problems with your fingers, it will probably be difficult for you. That being said, once I adjusted the straps where I wanted them, it was easy for me to push the heel strap down and just slip off the shoe, bypassing the clasp. The straps are comfortable and very light, but the one between the toe is a little bothersome. I will have to get used to it or attach a little piece of moleskin. The footbed is quite comfortable and offers decent support for a sandal. I have high arches and I found them moderately supportive. All in all, great alternative to flip flops.

These sandals are great for walking on solid ground. I have always had to wear sneakers at Disney World so my feet would not hurt. I wore these for three days straight at the Epcot Wine and Food Festival. I hardly know there was anything on my feet they are so light weight and comfortable.

Bought these for my honeymoon in Florida, and I thought these were great! I love Keens and how consistent they are with comfort. The straps are a bit narrow, but I never experienced any rubbing or hot spots while wearing.

I was looking for the perfect travel sandal for my upcoming S.E. Asia trip, and thank goodness I stumbled upon these! They are incredibly comfortable, sleek, and stylish. They can be adjusted in two places, which came in handy for me, especially when my feet swelled in the hot weather. They are very lightweight, perfect for the water, and I cannot tell you how many compliments I receive while wearing them. You will not be disappointed!

I received my Keens the day after I ordered them. I wore these sandals till the end of summer and could not stop admiring them :D. The shoes were a little smaller than I anticipated, but they are comfortable. I will also wear them on vacation this winter. As for Zappos.com, this was my first purchase, and I am thoroughly impressed. The service could not be better or more convenient. I will continue to purchase through this website. :)

These are very comfortable! I bought these for a trip to India (in monsoon season, I did not want a pair of flip flops that might come off). I found these to be really fantastic. I have a very wide ball of foot, but a very narrow heel. These fit fine, although I did have to shorten the heel strap a lot (so there was a large flap leftover, but it did not flap around, so I did not notice it). The shoes were immediately comfortable, and although I had a friction blocker, I never had to use it because even with the narrow straps I did not get any blisters. Also, for those who are vain like me, they photograph very well!

Great shoe! Very comfortable. Wore on an active vacation where I wanted cool feet but more support than plain ol'flip flops. The narrow straps make this much more attractive than other brands.

These are my go-to summer shoes. I bought them so I'd have a comfortable walking shoe I could wear with sundresses and skirts (felt like my closed-toed Keens were a little too frumpy for dresses). These aren't super sexy, but I can get away with them on most occasions. And did I mention how comfortable they are?

I purchased this shoe for our big trip to Italy where I knew a lot of walking would be done. My daughter ended up taking them from me because she loved them (I did too but how do you say "no" to your kid). Anyway, she wore them every day because they were so comfortable. The only problem was that the velcro on the strap wasn't long enough so I added velcro to it so it would attach more securely. It was fine for my size 8 foot but her's was a 7 1/2 so I think this 1/2 size made the difference in attachment. If you order the right size, it should be perfect. You'll love them!

I bought these shoes for a family vacation which required a lot of walking and they were absolutely wonderful! Even after they got wet, they did not rub my feet and dried quickly! Not only were they the most comfortable shoes I wore, but they look great too! I received them one day after ordering and cannot praise Zappos enough! I have and will continue to order through them!

These are great sandals! Sporty, comfortable, and durable, and they look cute. I love strappy sandals in the summer, but since I walk everywhere in the city (sometimes up to 2 hours a day), I needed something with some more substance - enter the La Paz Thong, not your typical butt-ugly Keens. A great compromise between the cheap/flat cute sandals and the chunky sport sandals (a la Chacos, which I tried and discarded promptly as irredeemably clunky).

I was looking for a supportive, strappy sandal that would stay on my foot in all types of walking/hiking/biking for the summer without the bulk offered by some other brands. These are the perfect sandal. You can wear them all day without rubbing, pinching, or foot fatigue and it almost feels like you aren't even wearing sandals. And they're super cute, I get complements on them constantly. Highly recommend.

Just received these and love them they look so cool on. Love the color, fit is perfect, so far haven't had problems with the back strap not sticking. Were a little tight but just loosened the side strap and fit is fine.
