Customer Reviews KEEN Kids Seacamp II CNX (Little Kid/Big Kid)

These shoes were for my grandson. They are his second pair, and he wears them and loves them to death!

Hello, I'm looking for a sandal with close toe and heal, since we can't wear open toe and heal sandal's at work. Keen brand is my favorite brand of shoes. I see all those so cute and colorful looking sandal's with closed toe and heal for children and I so would wear them to. I love fun and I love color why not making these color full sandals for adults. Us adults are not "dead" we are alive and love colors...

Keen sandals & shoes rock! I had foot surgery a few years ago and need the toe room. Keen shoes are the best and my foot is small enough I can wear big kids.

Love these shoes! My son has a high instep and this sandal fits him perfectly. He also wears his shoes through very fast but I am having a good experience with Keen so I hope this one lasts through the summer. He wears it every day in the outdoors and it holds up well in water.

I wear a women's Size 7, and these fit perfectly. They do not seem to be as sturdily built as the women's, as they are made of a lighter canvas-type material. Yet, they are extremely comfortable & supportive. The pic of the red color is very accurate. An awesome, daily-wearer. Definitely worth the money, IMO.

I like this slightly lighter, less bulky version of your basic Keen sandal. This is my son's 3rd pair in 3 summers. He outgrows them before they wear out, despite daily abuse at camp in the summer. I love that I can scrub them with a brush in hot water, and they clean up nicely!

My son (9 year old) has wide feet, and not every style works for him, so we bought about 7 different pairs of different makes and styles. My son picked this one out of all of them, and we tested it right away on our beach vacation. The sandals are very light, comfortable, dry quickly, and can be used as beach sandals as well as hiking shoes. We took with us another pair just in case (different make and style), but ended up using only this one everywhere. Very satisfied!

My son is 6 and I've always ordered and bought him nice shoes, believing shoe quality to be important for growing feet and I'd rather buy shoes that will really last without falling apart. These are one of our favorites yet. He got these (in red) right before a week long vacation where we walked constantly and I never heard one complaint about his feet. Since then, he's worn them this summer- climbing trees, playing in our creek, all over playgrounds- all completely happily. I wanted him to have some more dressy/casual shoes as well for summer, so ordered some well known brand dock shoes and some brown leather sandals- but both of those gave him blisters all over his relatively average sized feet and I heard nothing but complaints after just one day. Instead, I should've bought these in brown as well and we could have made it through the entire spring/summer with just two pairs. The only thing wrong with his sandals now is that he likes to play with the bungee cords and yanked one so hard that it snapped it in half. The sandal still fits fine, but I will need to go find a replacement cord so they look better.

My 7 yo son has very wide feet and high arches. He can't really slide his foot into a "regular" Keen sandal. These fit him great and he loves them. There's a lot more space for air/water to circulate than in other Reefs and they are a bit softer/more flexible.

Great

I ordered size 7 for my daughter, who wears 6.5, but the shoes hat arrived were entirely too big for her! In fact, I could wear them myself (and I am size 8.5). Nice style and comfortable, but entirely too large from my experience.

My son immediately felt comfortable in these shoes. I hope they work great for hiking.

This runs a full size smaller than the same shoe from last summer. I ordered a size 4 and it is exactly the same size as my daughter's size 3. She measures a true size 4 so order up.

The Keen Seacamp II CNX is a sturdy, lightweight sandal. They are not as heavy as the Newport H20 and have a more flexible sole, so my son liked them much better. Easy on and off and nice colors. The reason for the 4 star review is the bungee cord tie was cheap and flimsy. It broke in July after only 6 weeks of wearing them. I know Zappos would have taken care of it, but it just wasn't worth it by that time and he will outgrow them by next summer anyway. He wore them without the cords and with the velcro strap they stayed on fine. Still, they are pricey sandals and I expect better quality from Keen.

Overall this is a great sandal. I have one major con: the bungee closures snapped off by mid summer. They need to be made of a thicker, sturdier elastic. Other than that they were light weight, comfortable and my son loved them.

Have purchased probably ten pairs of these over time for my young boys, as they are comfortable, indestructible, easy to clean and protect their feet well. But the straps are now so short, they barely reach the other part of the velcro, and the velcro is not as strong as it used to be. No longer worth the hefty price, returned.

This is a great sandal with the exception of the bungee type lace. It always breaks after about 3 weeks! KEEN quality control wake up!! Otherwise, lightweight and comfortable, but rugged sandal. The fact that we keep buying them despite the crappy lace is a testament to how much my son loves them! We just tie the ends together and he keeps going. Still, it would be nice if the lace could last a bit longer! Giving them 3 stars because of this flaw, otherwise would rate a 5.

This is the 2nd pair of Seacamp II CNX summer shoes I've gotten. My kiddo loves them; they are very lightweight and flexible. Great for Summer. My HUGE complaint about these shoes (and ALL Keen shoes) is the cheap so called "antimicrobial" plastic insole that is in all Keen shoes. They make feet sweat and shoes begin to stink soon after they are worn. This issue goes across adult size Keens as well. I have to throw these shoes in the washing machine every week just to keep the shoes "fresh". This factor brings the # of stars down to 3. This kind of issue does not occur with shoes that are made with natural material insoles. Also, the fastening strap across the shoe is really thin and flimsy.

This is a stylish shoe - my son wanted to love them but couldn't get them on. They look adjustable and are, a little, but not nearly enough. They're definitely not for high arches or wide feet. Kamiks turned out much better for him.

We love KEEN. Unfortunately, this pair started falling apart near the toe in the first 3 weeks (in both shoes). Hoping it was just a defective pair. Will try again.

These did not work for us. Just disappointed most sandals don’t come in 1/2 sizes.... large jumps between sizes, my son is normally a 2 which was TINY, the 3 was ENORMOUS. Even the larger size is tricky to get on and off, this shoe has a very tight opening for the foot. My 9 year old needed help just to try them on.... continuing my quest for water friendly summer shoes because these aren’t the ones.
