Customer Reviews KEEN Rose Sandal

My feet are slightly wide and that is why I chose Keens for the slightly wider toe box. However, these Keens are narrower and were uncomfortable. My pinkie toe would get caught in the webbing. I also have a high arch and these are definitely no meant for those with high arch. The strap is not fully adjustable and will rub on the top of the foot. I liked the style but it did not work for me.

I couldn't get my foot into the shoe. Ordered 7.5. I'm usually between 7.5 and 8 size. If the ankle strap was fully adjustable I probably could get my foot into the shoe. I don't have high arches either. Returned the shoes

Saw these shoes on a friend and neighbor, and thought them cute. She said then were very comfortable, and great for camping and just general wear. Told me the maker, which I had never heard of; thought, I would have to search high and low. Surfing through Zappo's, which I am want to do, and there they were. Was excited to receive them. Tired they on immediately, and disappointed. Very hard to get on, the strappy front was very narrow. The Shoe overall is still very cute, but could not wear them. Phyllis must have a narrow foot, or at least narrower than mine.

The back heel strap has no way to adjust and rubs on my ankle. There is no way to just slide my foot in, had to nearly force it onto my foot. The footbed is just fine, but the heel strap is too short, or needs some elastic or velcro to allow a bit of give. Very cut shoe though.

Bought this pair along with 2 other Keen sandals. This pair was noticeably smaller than the other two pairs. I checked to see if the wrong size shoe was in the box, but the stamp on the sandal said 8.5.

I've worn a variety of Keen's for years and was reliably a size 8. Now, I need an 8.5 for length, but find they are too narrow in the toe box. This has been the case with other Keen styles as well.

I have two pairs I purchase last year. These are smaller.

I had to return this pair of Keens after a few months of wearing--and watching the toe cap separate from the shoe material. I have many pairs of Keens---Venice, Newport, and Whisper---but these Rose sandals did not live up to the Keen reputation for quality. I was sorry to see them go, as it is hard to find cute styles for my size 11.5 feet.

I have another pair of this style. It's comfortable. I tried two new pair of this style in two different colors. The band that goes across the top of the foot was too tight on both pair. I measured the strap on my old pair and the strap on these new shoes. The strap that goes across the top of your foot is 1/2 inch shorter on the new shoes. Why would you shrink a strap when you can adjust the size with velcro? I had to return both pair because now they are making these too tight for a higher instep.

Believe everything you read about the non-adjustable lower strap. I can barely get my foot through it and it is uncomfortably tight when I do get it on. I do not wear shoes in wide sizes. I’m trying to decide if I want to return them. Another reviewer said she had a shoemaker remove the lower strap, which I may try. I have 3 pairs of Keen Clearwaters in size 11 and they are almost too long. The Rose sandal in 11 feels smaller and narrower than the Clearwater .The lavender color is beautiful and I find the footbed nicely cushy. These are nice sandals in a beautiful color. Why is the strap so tight and non-adjustable?

Ankle strap was too tight with no way to loosen. Stitching was rough inside the right shoe across the top of the foot but fine on the left. Loved the style but just not comfortable for me

I've got another pair of the Keen Rose sandals that are about 5 years old, and they seem to fit differently. These are the same size as I usually purchase in Keens, but they definitely were too tight. I love the look, but had to send this pair back. I'm sure a half size larger would have worked, but I decided to try a pair of Chachos instead.

Sadly, too small and upper as well as neoprene strap across ankle are too tight for my high instep. Sending back.

These shoes are so wide that my foot just looks lost in them. There are very few choices for those of us with narrow feet.

I wanted to keep this shoe, but just couldn't get the right fit. I'm normally a 9, and the 9 felt too short when I tried on at a dept. store. I ordered 9 1/2 from Zappos, and it was still too short, but the 10 is just too big. I think the shoe style just isn't for my narrow feet, so I'm returning. Thanks Zappos for your wonderful service.

I tried a smaller size first and my big toes were crushed so I got a larger size but the shoe was just too big so I've given up. I'm really disappointed. I think the shoe is really cute and wanted to them to fit.

Sandal was very comfortable and regular width fit my narrow heel. Strap was perfect. Toe box felt too big so I decided to return them. Thinking about ordering a half size smaller.

These shoes are beautiful I love the style, but...on one foot my toe is hurting a little when I wear them. I never had this happen before with Keens so I'm surprised and disappointed. And... the sizing has been crazy with Keens. My first pair similar to this style was a size 9. I usually wear a size 10 so I was shocked that 9 was the right size. The my next pair size 9 was too small but 9.5 fit perfect. Now with this style size 9.5 was too small and the size 10 fit just right. I feel like Goldilocks!

This is the fourth pair I bought. Too bad Keen’s design change—which I’m glad makes the shoe lighter—makes the tie box just a little bit shorter, but enough to be uncomfortable. I’ll try a half size up. Maybe that will help.

These shoes were ruined by the gaping toe covering! I assume this material was there to protect the toes, but it is like an extra piece of fabric stuffed into the shoe. I had to work to keep it from folding under my toes. Otherwise the shoe felt true to size and had good support.

I thought I’d love these, but did not. They were about a half size too short as compared to the Keen Whisper and just not as comfortable.

Length and width fit was as expected. The strap was not truly adjustable, as other reviews mentioned, which made the overall fit not as comfortable. Though the style was very cute, I returned these as the shoe rubbed on the top front edge.

this pair feels different from the same shoe, different color, i bought last month locally. it think it has something to do with the adjustable ankle strap that is not so adjustable.

I so wanted to love these shoes, love they style. However, I have a high arch and the strap on the ankle doesn't adjust and is just too snug, so back they go.
