Customer Reviews KEEN Bali Strap

I’m not sure if these were a defective pair but they were huge and the right one was bigger and had sloppy stitching. So the material that covers the toe had an unsightly bubble. But the fact is I have always worn ann11 and it’s bern a perfect fit with Keens. These had a full inch in the heel that was sticking out. I’m trying a half size smaller and hope the quality is also better. They’re a nice style and fully adjustable but if these are the way they are then they run large.

Unfortunately, I had to return as it was a good full size too big. I loved the style & comfort, just way too big.

I really wanted to love this shoe, but it just didn't fit my feel properly, and just from walking around in my living room, my pinky toe on my left foot kept slipping out. It wasn't cute, and it certainly wasn't comfortable. Sadly this pair will have to go back.

Perhaps the shoes I received had been incorrectly labelled in the factory but they were huge! I have several pair of the Keen Rose sandal and they fit me perfectly in a 9. In these shoes there was at least an inch between my toes and the end of the sandal and plenty of room behind my heel as well. Perhaps as a result of this the shoes felt wide even when I tightened the ankle strap to the max. I loved the look of the shoes in the grey/black mix and wish they had fit. I would order another size but have no idea what that should be. It's back to the UPS store for sure.

I have an old old pair of Keen sandals and I was looking to replace them with something of equal quality, but forgot about the weird "Keen toe." So imagine a compass: the toe of the shoe curves northwest, and when I put my feet in straight, my toes end up pointing in the opposite direction! There is a good 1 inch of toebox empty (it's my normal size– could not go down in size). My heel is in the heel cup perfectly straight… my feet are not curved:-) Happens with my old pair as well but since that style has soft straps and covers the whole foot I manage to make it work. So bizarre. This is the second pair of Keens I've tried and no more for me.

I first ordered a 7-1/2 and they were huge, reordered a 7 and still too big. These sandals were not as comfortable or as well made as the Rose sandal.

Beautiful color! But the heel strap was rough. I was certain they were rub blisters.

I have a pair of Rose Sandals and thought I would like these. The straps are stiff and scratchy - I really don't wear them much. I wish I had gotten a 2nd pair of Rose.

The shoe ran large for me, but the width was great. I wanted to like them as they were immediately comfortable, but the straps were rough underneath on the top of my foot and had no padding. The shoes did not feel like they would enable to be on my feet all day. I also hated the little fold in the fabric by the toe cover. It looked like a defect.

I don't know if the pair I received was mislabeled or what, but they were huge. I ordered a women's 10.5 and they were almost as big as my son's size 12 shoes. They are very cute and light weight and I am going to order down a size.

Really great looking sandal! Just a bit too big and my pinkie toe fell out of the webbing while walking, which hurt. I really liked them, but I had to return them.

I reordered these 1/2 size smaller and they fit great BUT... I also ordered 2 other styles of Keens for a trip that involved a lot of walking and these sandals sat in the closet the whole time. They were rather stiff in the footbed. Not comfy right out of the box. The fabric was also stiff and scratchy. If you are considering these, think of the Rose sandals by Keen, supportive and soft, no break in time.

Ordered this shoe and the Rose Sandal in size 7.5. This shoe was much wider and appeared to be a full size larger.

I am a size 7 and this shoe looked to be about a size 8 in length. It was also too wide for me. The strap on the back was stiff and uncomfortable. The straps on the toe area did not sit nicely on my foot. I really like the look and the color of these shoes, but the fit and comfort were totally off for me. I will return them and try a different style.

Wore the Bali slide all summer and they were really comfortable and cute. With seasonal change thought I’d try the Bali strap. Wore them a couple of times for short periods of time as they were really painful. I have neuromas on both my feet and finding comfortable shoes is always a challenge.

I really want to love these shoes, but... there is something about the way the foot bed is shaped that puts my weight on the inside of my foot. I didn't notice it at first, but after walking not very long, it was very obvious. Hurts my knees. The extra strap around the heel is a great idea, especially for those of us with narrow heels, but when I make it snug enough, I end up with a great chunk of strap sticking out past the velcro, which just looks funny.

Keen often runs wide for my foot, and this was no exception. It was also at least a half size too long. Bottom line too long and too wide for me.

I didn't realize these had an enclosed toe. That was not comfortable on my foot so will be returning this pair.

Keens can be scratchy on the inside and this was no exception. I once wore a pair to walk around Spain and got the worst blisters ever. Others have been better finished, and I've been happy with them. This is probably the last pair of Keens I'll try, though. Merrells, for instance ,are better made, at the same price.

I have a pair of the Keen Rose sandals that I love. I wear them a lot in the summer, so I thought I'd get a second pair. I ended up buying these, the Bali Strap, and they're OK, but I kinda wish I'd bought another pair of Rose sandals, for one reason only: the material in the upper toe, between the strap and the toe guard at the very end. It's a stretchy, spandex-y material and I'm a little worried about its durability. I'd rather these sandals had an open spot right there. These sandals feel a lot like the Rose sandals, so I'm happy with fit, sizing and support.

Didn't really like seeing my toes on the side - not closed toe enough for work. Oh well. Arch support seemed a little lacking too.

These shoes are wide and they run half a size larger on me - cute for camping/water, etc. Need to return for a smaller size.

These were much larger and wider than other keens I have. I loved the look.

I wish these worked . I love the style and feel, but the toe area was way too wide and not adjustable .

Was hoping these shoes would have the extra wide toe box like the Keen Presidios. These just weren't roomy enough for my feet. They also could have had more arch support.
