Customer Reviews KEEN Bali Strap

I have three pairs of these shoes. They are really comfortable, even walking for long periods of time. I throw them in the washing machine to wash them every week or so, and they come out clean and fresh. There is plenty of room for toes, so I don't feel any pressure on my neuromas. I have only two minor issues with these shoes: 1) they tend to get stinky; this is solved by frequent washing, but it is unusual for me to have smelly shoes or feet. In fact, a pair of Tevas that are similar in construction, and which I also love, never get smelly. 2) The bottom wears down pretty quickly; I am relatively easy on shoes, and I got the third pair because my other two pairs were in various stages of worn down on the bottom (oddly, right under the ball of my foot, not in the heels which is usually where I see wear on my shoes.

I like the look and feel of the Bali Strap. I wish there was a little elastic in the strap that goes over the foot, although in a half size smaller the strap may fit better. I also order Uneek O2 and Rose sandal - these are both the same length about a half inch shorter foot bed than the Bali. I will order Bali in the smaller size before I make my selection

In true Keen style, these are remarkably comfortable. I’m between a 8 and 8.5 and always go with an 8 in Keen’s. They are water shoes and “fashionable” enough for this type of shoe. I love Keen’s!

I bought these because I was looking for sandals that had support and covered toes for work. I wore them all day today without a problem. Just what I wanted.

These were not as comfortable as other Keen sandals. The back strap felt weird and I sent them back. Great customer service though!

Very light and comfortable.

I've been looking for something more than the traditional "teeva" (which are wonderful, by the way) Something with a bit more shape, protection and adjustability. These are awesome! Just what I wanted for moderate hiking but still with the water option. Plus they are kinda cute and very comfortable. love them!

I wanted to wear sandals when my toes weren't pedicure perfect and these fill the bill. The toe cap covers your toes from sight and perhaps more important they provide protection. The sandals are attractive and comfortable. Glad I bought them.

I LOVE THESE SO MUCH! If I could wear them to work everyday, I would! I have big feet, especially after having a baby, and these shoes are perfect!

These are the perfect warm weather shoes if you do a lot of outdoor activities! I have worn these to long zoo trips, parks, camping, etc. they’re very comfortable and it’s nice to be able to get them wet when it’s hot with an actual thick sole for walking. They’re also cute! I get lots of compliments on them.

Love them. I have flat feet so I appreciate the lack of arch support. They may run a little wide-the medium fits my wide foot nicely.

These were cute. My 8 1/2 size fit perfectly. Glad I didn’t order up, as many reviews suggested. Only wish there was some arch support. Not heavy like other styles.

The Bali Strap is a very cute & comfortable sandal. You can wear them right out of the box, as I did, for all day comfort! Like them so much I plan on getting them in another color. I noticed some of the other reviews questioned the sizing, however, I wear an 8.5, so I ordered the 8.5, & they fit perfectly. You can't go wrong with this sandal. Treat yourself & get yourself a pair.....or two!

Love these shoes - I ordered a .5 size up as I do with all keen purchases and they are perfect - I like to travel with only a carry on so these are perfect for an upcoming vacation to the USVI - for walking to the beach or with a skirt going out for beers!

My other keens r a 9.5 but these run bigger, and a 9 fit much better in this style.

These shoes are wider than normal in the toe area which is great for my bunion. I like the style as it is less "clunky" than some other Keens and I love the comfort of the foot bed. Just wish the strap material was softer and/or there was some padding between it and my foot -- right now it seems too stiff and I'm wondering if it will chafe my skin when I walk. I bought the light blue and really like the color for summer.

So far am liking these a lot. First time wearing Keens and love that they cover up ugly toes and seem good for walking. Headed to Florida and thing they will be perfect.

Love Keens but these were too wide for me. I have very narrow feet. I wear either a 7N or 6.5. The 6.5 length was perfect, just too wide.

These are not quite as cushy and comfortable as the Sketchers I also purchased but I like the look of these and they feel like a good travel sandal. The straps are adjustable for a personalized fit and the black/gray will go with everything casual. These felt a little wide for my feet but the adjustable straps help with that and feel good for walking.

I am not graceful. I slide out of flip flops and perpetually stub my toe if I am not wearing shoes. Keen shoes are my favorite. Not only do they stay on my feet, they are comfortable and keep me from stubbing my toes. That being said, these did not work for me. Ordered them for a casual around town and tourist summer look. Extremely cute. I have the Keen Bali slides, which I like. These are not as cushy as the Venice H2, but would still be okay. My problem was the straps around the ankles. They were not as soft as usual Keen straps, and some of the stitching was a little scratchy. Would have rubbed a blister if I had worn them in the heat. Sad to see them go, but had to return them.

Cute but not for someone that has a slightly wide foot or needs good arch support. We returned and went back to the Newport H2

I sent these back. They just weren't my style. They're a slightly dressy version of the Keen sandal, and I was happier with the more straightforward sporty styling of other Keen sandals. (I ended up with Clearwaters in mineral blue leather, and I love them.) These are, however, *insanely* comfortable. The textured footbed is especially nice, as is the ankle strap, adjustable fore and aft.

This is probably my third pair of Keen water shoes. I like that these are more suitable to day wear than my last pair (Newports?). Ordered two colors and ended up keeping the purple because it was the most comfortable. There are definitely minor quality control issues: tiny bumps (like skin tags!) in random spots on the soles and a few sharp edges where the side meets the insole. I kept them because I needed shoes for kayaking that weekend! If you have bunions, this may conceal them nicely. It did for me. I did not size up and they were fine.

On big feet, these sandals make the foot look even bigger. Do not like the strap in front and cannot close the velcro enough to make them feel snug. Too bad; very cute.

I almost always wear a 6, but in this case the size 6 was waaaaay to big.
