Customer Reviews KEEN Rose Sandal

I bought these shoes for a 16 day trip to China in July. I wanted shoes that would cover my toes (I did not want any smashed or broken toes to ruin the trip) but would also let air circulate. My feet are wide so I hesitated about purchasing shoes online with a quickly approaching deadline. I ordered them with two day shipping and they arrived the next day. I wore them constantly for the 16 days that we were in China. We did a lot of walking. It was hot, but the shoes were comfortable and gave me no problems whatsoever. I even got them soaking wet, and once they dried out, they were back on my feet. There was absolutely no stinky shoe smell even though I was wearing them daily for over eight hours a day. They looked great with both pants and skirts. I loved the comfort and style; but I did not think that I would wear them when I got back to the US. I was wrong. They are now my go to shoes instead of my sandals or tennis shoes.

These are really cute. I wanted a black "sport" sandal that wasn't clunky. This is light and pretty. I like the gray foot bed. I ordered an 8 which is my usual size, but ended up with an 8 1/2. They are cute with jeans and casual dresses and skirts. I'm very happy with these shoes. Also, I have wide feet and these fit just fine width wise.

I love Keens and these are another great addition to my collection. The color is fantastic...a really nice shade of purple. This shoe is more feminine that the traditional Keens which gives it a little more versatility in my wardrobe. However, I don't love the velcro since I feel like velcro is for children's shoes but it doesn't impact the overall wear of the shoe.

Great sandals. Took them to Europe and walked non-stop for 10 days! Washed them in the washer and though they took a day to dry came out looking great.

I have never had Keens before but my friends have. I saw these at a good price on Zappos, odrered them, they came and are great. My daughter wants some.

Love this shoe. My feet don't get as hot in them as the Venice H20. Wish Keen would make more cute able to wear to work sandals & shoes.

I have owned several pairs of Keen sandals, but these are definitely my favorites. Based on the reviews, I ordered an 8 1/2, up from my usual 8, and they fit perfectly. They are less clunky than other models, while still being comfortable. Wore them on a trip to Santa Fe and was stopped on the street by someone interested in where I got my shoes!

Love these sandals. The most comfortable pair I have ever owned. I normally need a wide but these fit perfectly.

Love this sandal! It's very comfortable from the start, straight out of the box. The style is feminine, while giving great support and toe protection. Lots of positive comments from co-workers. I highly recommend this shoe. Now I have to save up to get it in other colors beyond my first pair of black.

I love these shoes. They were comfortable right out of the box. They look good. They're great for walking. And they're purple. What more can I ask?

I bought these for my daughter to wear to summer camp and for out door activities, and they are perfect. They protect her feet, yet allow her to stay cool and stylish.

Lots of compliments when I wear these sandals! Comfortable, light-weight, stylish. This sandal addresses three issues I have with most sandals. My feet are odd shape (this shoe helps shape from toe to ankle), I can't afford pedicures (the toenails don't show and I can take care of the rest of the foot care myself), and my feet tend to sweat a lot (these sandals really do somehow keep my feet from having "stinky feet syndrome"). I highly recommend these sandals, just suggest ordering 1/2 size larger than you normally wear.

Love Keen's. Own several pairs. This was a more stylish pair, and that's why I ordered them. I believe I got the right size, but my toes get caught in all the cutout spaces, which is not very comfortable, and as you know with Keen's you use these shoes for all kinds of activities. So I'm sadly returning.

These are such comfortable sandals, I wear them all the time and get many complements, especially about the color (purple). When asked where did I get them, of course I gladly tell them Zappos because of their excellent service and nearly next day delivery.

I am so disappointed with these sandals - because I ordered a 7 rather than a 6½ which seemed to be advised per other reviewers. I usually wear a 6½ to 7 and reviews advised to go to slightly larger size. Big mistake, especially with such expensive shoes. I did not realize the extent of the problem until I had worn them and of course now I cannot return them. I actually think the shoes are super cute and comfortable if only they were a little smaller. No more online shoes for me.

I love these sandals! They add style to the Whisper Keens--sleeker but just as comfortable. I have them in grape and black! Would love to get them in red.

I love these sandals. They are extremely comfortable from walking around Portland to a rocky beach. I can also run in them to play with my kids. The toe guard is awesome! I did have to go a half size larger then my normal 8.5.

Absolutely loved the look of these; however, could not even get them on. So disappointed. I wanted to keep them so badly. I wish Keen would restyle these so they opened up across the heel or instep. The stretch just isn't enough. A larger size would not have worked either. I have a high instep and if they opened completely up they would have gone on. I wish Keen would also make a wide in some of their dressier styles.

This model of Keen is super cute and comfy! I wear a pair of Keen Venice H2's for work and they are great, but I wanted the Keen comfort in something a little more feminine. Oh boy, does the Rose fit the bill! I usually wear a 6 but had to go to a 6.5 in this shoe - it runs a tad short and the arch strap runs a little tight. It would have been better if they had left it as a completely adjustable strap. Also the base of the shoe looks lighter in the picture when actually it is a dark grey. I got both the tan and black. In any case I am very excited about this addition to the Keen fleet!

I love these sandals. I have friends commenting all the time how cute they are. They fit my odd shaped feet well and add a dainty touch to a somewhat rustic sandal. From day one I had no blisters and the sandals "gave" where it was needed. I wear them for casual and dressy casual. Love them!

I am so glad I got these sandals. I wear them for work outside in a plant nursery and spend most of my day on my feet. The sandals are extremely comfortable, beautifully cushioned, no chafing or rubbing and I love the color - I experienced none of the problems with the ankle strap, arch support, etc that others wrote about. I am a happy, happy camper with 2 happy feet.

I also bought these in the grape color. They are really cute and super comfortable. The grape pair can be worn with a jersey knit summer dress and doesn't look like I'm going to Woodstock. They're wonderful walking shoes and I pretty much wear them constantly. I also bought a pair for my 81-year-old Mom (who is recovering from a broken hip) and she loves them too.

Oh, this is the cutest sandal Keen has ever made and Oh, how I was disappointed that it wouldn't work for me! You have to look carefully to really notice the nylon toe cap which is inside the straps and is separate from the normal Keen toe protector. My toes on one foot (much shorter than the other due to surgery) kept catching on that strip of nylon. Other Keen models without that separate inset are fine for me. I loved the look of the shoe, so much more feminine than most Keens, especially nice in the black. The ankle strap which others have complained about was no problem at all for me. I can't afford to order two different sizes, so I'll have to stick with the Keen Whisper. Thanks, Zappos for letting me try the newest Keen!

This shoe is very comfortable, and looks much less "clunky" than my other pair of Keens. They actually look very good. Someone else had mentioned the stationery strap under the stretchy one, but there is still give in the strap, and I didn't find it to be a problem.

I wish this shoe would fit on a narrow foot. The foot bed was so comfy, but my foot is narrow and would slip back to far off the foot bed. I had to return. Overall these are super cute and extremely comfortable. I give 5 stars because it's not the shoe, but my narrow foot that didn't work.
