Customer Reviews KEEN Rose Sandal

I love the idea of the toe bumper on a cream shoe...but the black bumper looked strange with the cream shoe. The shoe bed was also too wide for my narrow foot, making the shoe look even larger than it is. Has zero arch support, and I do not have high arches at all, but it felt like my knees would eventually start rolling inwards. Had to return.

Podiatrist insists that all my sandals require an arch as a future knee replacement preventative. The foot is the foundation. Keen is consistent in crafting a quality foot bed foundation and their style combined with practicality rule.

My other keen is a 8 1/2, but this one is too short. please send a 9 which is my usual size.

Cute, but had to return because the ankle strap is to tight and they fit loose in the foot bed and my toes catch the inside webbing and sound like flip flops when walking.

I love these shoes and have them in two colors. They are fun to wear and great for traveling. They are also very comfortable.

Great fit and comfortable. My feet are "hard to fit" and these work very well: wide in the toe box; straps hit at the right spots; ankle strap comfortable.

I love these sandals. They are great for hiking, long walks, or just shopping around town. They look great with shorts or even paired with a skirt. And so comfortable. Would buy these again.

Love these! As dressy as a KEEN can get. I wish they made these in more colors. I usually wear the Whisper and these are as comfortable! Sizing true. Size 9.

This is my favorite Keene sandal. I really like the Whisper as well. But the Rose is a little more stylish. I just wish it came in more colors.

Ordered the 9.5 size - too large. Waited until size 9 was back in stock. Unfortunately, the strap is too tight across my foot - probably due to my high arches/instep. Too bad cuz I love this Rose Sandal.

I have always felt Keen shoes were right for my feet. The Zappo service was quick and I will do ordering through then again

Zappos had what 10 plus other vendors were sold out of. They came through with flying colors. My size color choice & style. Just what I was hoping for! They were at my doorstep within a week! I'm super thrilled!

I have mixed opinions about this sandal. On the plus side I love the basic style of the sandal. It is not the chunky hiking sandal. It looks great and I love the gray color. On the negative-Keen seems to have gotten away from being the shoe with great arch support. This is the main reason I started wearing Keens. I have plantar fasciitis and I need great support. Secondly I really do not like that the strap over the top of the ankle is permanently attached and there is only a little elastic to allow it to give. Putting on the sandals in more effort than it should be. At the end of a long day on my feet with hot humid weather the elastic digs into my skin. If the strap was adjustable I could just make it larger to fit the swelling feet. Still not sure if I am keeping these.

Arch is not as structured as the original keens. If you need a high, rigid arch it will not work.

This is the second pair of Keen Rose Sandals I have bought for my wife and she wears them almost every day and tells me they are the best, most comfortable sandals she has ever worn. The first pair in a grey color were a gift, and the red pair were by request so she would have a color option. Now all her friends want them!!

I have a wide foot, so I've gravitated toward Keens. I have the 7 reg in the Targee hiking shoe, but got the 7.5 in the sandal. Like others mentioned, the ankle strap is fully attached (there's material under the strap itself to limit chaffing) and is a bit snug at the ankle. I considered sending the shoes back, but ultimately stuck with them and keep the Velcro loose at the ankle to allow the band to stretch as much as my foot/ ankle needs when moving. Would have preferred an ankle strap that comes completely apart, like my old Keens, but the shoes themselves are comfortable and are a little dressier than my last pair.

I love these sandals. Sporty and cute. I am a true 7.5 and they fit perfectly. They have enough support to wear all day. I was worried about rubbing/blisters around the straps, but they were fine after a full day at an outdoor adventure park.

Great sandals! I needed a comfortable sandal to wear at work, and this sandal was perfect. It has great support and cushioning for standing and walking on concrete floors. In addition, it is more feminine looking than some of the other Keen sandals.

Fit is true to size and they are very comfortable, especially for long days of sightseeing. Cute too. Highly recommend

Very happy with these. They are comfortable on long walks. Tested them by walking over a mile in NYC-no blisters!

I'm returning this shoe unfortunately. I really, really wanted to like it but it rubs on the top of my left foot in particular and only after a very few minutes of testing the shoe in the house. Some other reviewers also commented on the failure of having an adjustable ankle strap on the shoe. I can just tell I would be miserable very soon in this shoe. Thanks Zappos for having such a nice return policy!

I went up 1/2 size from my other Keen sandals. These are a bit narrower than the clunkier, more traditional Keen styles of the Newport, and Venice, for example, but roomy enough for a medium to slightly wide foot. Narrow feet will have no problem. I found the non-adjustable neoprene strap across the top of the instep, under the adjustable Velcro strap annoying - so I cut it out. I now use just the adjustable Velcro strap across the top of my foot - (the strap that is visible in the pictures) like a functional Mary Jane strap. I have had no issues with shoe integrity after doing this. I have had no problems with the Velcro strap coming loose or the shoe not securely on my foot. Otherwise they are too constricting for higher insteps. Love the shoe now.

Love this sandal. Like the fact that it's good with/without socks and OK if it rains. Wore it around Switzerland comfortably. But I don't think it has as much arch support as some others I have. I like the velcro fastener which helps the fit as I have narrow feet.
