Customer Reviews KEEN Newport H2 Hydro

I bought these shoes to use while canoeing, kayaking and trips to a lake. I recently used them on a road trip to Williamsburg Virginia with my grandson who insisted I take him to the pool everyday. They were very comfortable. Just remember to get a size a half size bigger.

This is my 2nd pair of Keen sandals. The last pair lasted me almost 3 years. A perfect shoe for anyone on a lake. The only problem I see is they sometimes run about a half size to small! Ordering from LLBean is always a pleasure.

I put them on for a walk around the house and will be taking them to Hawaii in about 3 weeks for daily wear. Excellent immediate fit. I have another pair that will be used for heavy duty beach wear. These Keens are extremely comfortable and are great in the water. I love the fit and the durability.

I just love them, its my second pair.

I had been searching for inexpensive sandals for months. I was at a mall in NJ and popped into the LL Bean store there assuming my string of disappointments would continue. I tried on the Bean sandals that are similar to these Keens and while the price was right the fit was just OK so I decided to pass. I was going to leave the store but at the last second I asked to try on the Keens and I am so glad I did. As soon as I put my foot into one of them I knew I was going to make the purchase. I have flat, wide feet and these fit me absolutely perfectly. They seemed a bit pricey at first but you really can't put a price on good footwear so that thought left my mind almost immediately. I think I paid $89 at the store so if you have a Bean store nearby I suggest you go there first. In all honesty though if these sandals last as long as I think they will the extra $11 is trivial. I had two minor conerns but not enough to warrant taking away a full star: 1) I was afraid they'd be sweaty. So far I've worn them a handful of times around town for a few hours at a time with minimal sweating so that's no longer a concern. 2) I am a little concerned that the rear strap will eventually wear out since you have to give the loop on the back a decent pull to get it up onto your heel. I don't think it'll be a problem any time soon but that seems to be the one weak point in the sandal's design. Many other designs use Velcro which would allow for more adjustments but doesn't look as nice and also wears out. It's a trade-off. All-in-all I'd say this is a top-notch sandal and seemingly worth the money. I'll be heading to the beach in a few weeks where I'll really be able to test them out but I don't anticipate any problems whatsoever.

This shoe is the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. A must try!

These sandals are comfortable on a walk. I can walk my dogs 2 miles with no discomfort. I especially like the closed toe. The fastener works well making the sandal easy to put on and take off. I have worn them a lot and plan on taking them on a trip to the UK. I would definitely recommend them for active use.

This is my first pair of Keen Newport H2 Sandals. While billed as a sandal to be worn around water, I wear them everywhere in place of regular sandals, athletic shoes and flip flops. They are comfortable, sized correctly for me, and even got a "cool" response from my adult daughter when she saw me wearing them. I would definitely buy another pair if or when these need to be replaced.

Great fit, very comfortable for all day wear, even in hot humid weather. A great all around sandal, can not go worng.

The shoes are great. The fit is good and the overall style is great. The shoe is very comfortable and cool in the hot weather.

These are very comfortable, and easy to walk around in all day. In addition, they are waterproof and open, and seem to "not stay wet", so they are good in the kayak. They stay on my foot well. Sizes run small. My size 6 foot is snug in a 7 1/2 - no problem if you try them on in the store, first.

I bought these to replace my older keen sandals, and they are the most comfortable that I have owned yet. Highly recommended.

Awesome sandals - true to size - love them!

Great summer shoes. They protect your feet, but let a lot of air through.

I have both colors and I love them. I wear them to work and I'm on my feet for 8 hours. They also work great as a paddling shoe.

I am a swimming coach. My feet get wet on a regular basis. Keen Newport H2's work very well for me. Hours on my feet. Very comfortable for my somewhat wide feet. I also wear them around town with socks. I'm not so sure my wife is that pleased with that look, but it works for me. I am particularly hard on shoes and these have lasted longer than any others I have owned. I am size 11D. Fit well right out of the box.

This is the 2nd pair of Keens that I have bought. Very comfortable and a sturdy product.

I usually don't like sandals because they don't support my high ached feet. These however are the most comfortable sandals I have ever worn. I love them.

So comfortable worth every cent! Needed a tough durable shoe for my boating needs, these sandals are the ticket.

This may be the best pair of sandals I've ever purchased. They are great for the urban walking I do on the uneven walking surfaces of Baltimore. The covered toe protects my toes. The sandals are relatively light and the sole seems to form fit to my foot. There is no slippage and yet the sandals still feel airy.

This has to be the most comfortable sandle I've ever worn. The sole supports your foot and has great arch support. The uppers are hold your foot snugly but don't cause any blisters. Great value!

These are so comfortable, well made and stylish that I bought a second pair. I would recommend these to anyone, for outdoor casual wear, indoor comfort, or in and around the water.

Very,very comfortable. Can't wait for warm weather so I can wear them all the time. I listened to all the other reviews and went up a half size. Too big. Exchanged for my true size and great fit! Can't wait to explore Hawaii in them!

I really enjoyed wearing these sandals. They fit well, gave good support, & looked nice. They are a product with value.

I recently purchased these sandals from LL Bean and I am pleased with their comfort and fit. This is my second pair of Keen sandals and I still wear my 1st pair almost daily. The fit on these sandals runs a liitle small, so I would recommend ordering a 1/2 size up from your normal shoe size. These sandals are great to wear around town, are good for wearing to the beach because they can be used in water, and are also good to take along backpacking as a 2nd pair of shoes to wear around camp. The price is alot for sandals, but they are a quality product.
