Customer Reviews KEEN Rose Sandal

First of all, I totally agree with everyone who complained about the difficulty of getting into these sandals because the heel strap is not adjustable. I am lucky to be able to get them on, but it's not easy. I disagree with the person who said there is no arch support; there's not a lot, but the footbed is NOT flat. I usually wear an 8.5 or a 9. I ordered the 8.5 and loved how they looked, but they seemed a little tight, so to be safe, I ordered the 9 to compare. The 9 is slightly more comfortable but they look so much bigger I decided to go with vanity and keep the 8.5. I wore the 8.5's around outside today and I'm glad I opted to keep them. I'd rather they be slightly tight than own them and not wear them because they look big! I can't imagine anyone wearing socks with these sandals, but if that's an option for you, for sure, size up!

I like these Keen sandals because they are cute enough to wear casually but can also work as a hiking sandal. They fit a bit small. I normally wear an 8.5 and had to get a 9 in these sandals.

I really wanted to like these! I can see how they would be very comfortable on the right feet - the support was great, they felt secure on my feet, and the style is more feminine and delicate than other similar shoes. However they just would not work on my fat feet and high insteps. The ankle strap appears to be adjustable, but there is a fixed neoprene (or similar material) strap under the semi-adjustable velcro strap that was just too tight. When I closed the velcro strap, the end of it lay squarely on the top of my foot, rather than on the side near my ankle. Not a good look, and obviously the fixed strap was not meant to be stretched so far as to cause that. The toe box area was plenty wide but the straps across the ball of the foot were too snug and I could tell they would rub badly when walking.

I usually wear 10.5: this is just a little too small.

Perfect fit @ 7.5, great color - my wife's first KEEN shoes (after me trying to convince her for years to acquire a pair) . . . .

Lots of compliments. Super cute on. I was afraid they would be klunky but they weren’t. Cute with spring and summer dresses.

Comfortable, feel protected. However I have to cover the sole with a liner as it makes my foot sweat and burn. I wish there was a different solution.

they are very comfortable, I bought them for walking

I felt the shoes were a little larger than expected-about a half size. Everything else about them is perfect.

So far I'm loving this shoe! It's super cute and I think I could wear it with shorts, jeans, skirts. The color is neutral which means it goes with almost anything. Very comfortable and no break in time or blisters yet. The ankle strap is a tiny bit tight, but it's not causing any issues. Only thing I wish is for them to have more arch support. As a hiking sandal I think the comfort, toe guard and traction outweigh the less arch support because the sole is not flat, but just not as much as Teva or Taos. Definitely recommend Keen and especially the Rose sandal if you're looking for a cute hiking sandal that actually gets the job done.

This is my second pair of this Keen model. The fit and comfort are very good.

The only sandal that works with me, post bunion and foot surgeries! And they're s comfy and stylish, have two now! Great colors!]

Very comfortable and lightweight, more so than my previous ones (Whisper I think), better arch support and they fit better

I love these sandals. I have nearly every color. They are comfortable and so versatile. I wear them with dresses, shorts and jeans. I normally wear 11W but the B width has plenty of room.

So comfy. I got them because I see the fittest woman in our area wearing them on her looonng high speed walks. Now I know why. The toe box is big but isn’t flopping around on my foot so it’s tolerable. You won’t regret this comfort

I bought these for my MIL, who's 93. She says they feel great, true to size, super comfortable. She'll be very happy wearing these!

Fit was perfect - comfort incredible. I could walk in these shoes every day. Well made. Good investment - I love the style of these shoes - goes great with my everyday skirts and pants.

I have had this shoe for two years and have lived in it during the summers. It is only now getting a sticky footbed and so I decided to get another pair before they go extinct. LOVE THEM!

Love Keen sandals! Comfortable foot beds.

9.5 They are very nice and feel very comfortable, and very light. I decided to get 9 1/2 but I am 9 for most shoes. However for sandals I like to go 1/2 number up. It felt lose (too wide maybe) still nothing warranting a return, I love them and they look great. These are my new pretty things, I love them. You will feel pretty when you wear them..

Love these! I had been looking for some time for a hiking sandal for trips when I don't want to pack my regular hiking boots & also a shoe with good traction for sailing but had been unable to find one I thought was cute enough for also walking around town when traveling-these are IT! super comfy, good traction, breathable, and CUTE. I tried both the black and the gray, but the gray seemed to go better with everything & overall just had a softer look. Thanks Keen!

I believe this is my third pair of these shoes -- they are the best sandals ever. SO comfortable, not dressy but not as clunky as many sporty sandals, and last forever. I only have replaced my previous pairs because, after wearing them for months a year for several years, I can start feeling that they are slightly less supportive than they once were (I have sore heels if my shoe aren't in close to new condition). The shoes themselves are still looking great after years of wear. I truly cannot recommend these enough!!

The Rose Sandal is comfortable and the straps and soft toe cover in the front accommodate my problem bunion foot. Some reviews commented on the ankle strap not being adjustable. The strap material is soft and stretchy and not too tight across the top of my foot so not a problem for me. I also ordered the Keen Astoria West and told myself when I ordered, I could only keep one. The Keen Astoria will be more of working sandal and will take the place of my sneakers when working outside.

The rose sandals fit quite well. I do wish keens would consider offering wide widths to their sandals, shoes and boots.

My new rose sandals are perfect. I’ve been wearing Keens for years, and these have the comfort without feeling clunky. My message to Keen, however, is “Bring back the Mary Jane!”
