Love the Smokey Bear sandals! I feel like this style runs a little smaller. I wear a size 10 in the Whisper style and needed an 11 in this Newport style. Keen was great with return and getting a different size! These are very comfortable! I would recommend to others!

I have worn Newport Keen sandals for over 20 years & always ordered womens size 11. I love the Smokey the Bear version & was very disappointed when they arrived & I couldnt even get them on. The shoe was way too narrow & small, almost like it was the wrong size. But I verified the size & sadly had to return them!

I've worn my Keen Newport Sandals while working for many different summer camp programs, from hiking, biking, camping, beach going, to traveling this past year from state to state to Costa Rica and back. I wear my Keen Newport Sandals as soon as it's warm enough to do so in Oregon until it's too cold to reasonably do so. This is my third set in the past 10+ years I've been working in youth/outdoor based programs, I wear them until the tread is almost non-existent, which for wearing these sandals almost every day for about 9 months out of the year, I'd say has been a good investment. Easy to slip on/off, they also stay put when I'm in the water or doing any of the previous listed activities. They've kept my toes protected when playing games with kids on hard surfaces, to hiking through lots of different terrains. I think it's funny these are labeled as the "ugliest" sandal, I think they're cute! And as a woman with "big" feet, I appreciate they come in lots of cute colors and styles in a size 11.

I love these shoes! I use them when we go paddle boarding and kayaking. I also wear them at work. They are excellent shoes for working outdoors with plant material.

The shoes are comfortable. They are heavier than my other Keens which does not work well for a long period.

The reason why I have accumulated 9 pairs of KEEN shoes from sandals to hiking shoes over the years is the brand's quality and superb customer services. I have been a happy customer for those two reasons and it might be a bit vain but I feel the brand is an instant-recognizable brand when you wear them.

Purchased my last pair of Newport sandals 8 years ago. Would still have them if a rambunctious lab did not decide they were the best toy. I like these so much I will definitely purchase another pair. Sturdy supportive sandals.

these arrived and are so cool looking! Unfortunately, they run about a size small. I wear a 6.5 and ordered a 7. Just too short in the front. I need a 7.5 which isnt available in the red. Am returning and am sad. Order full size up!!

I have known my KEEN sandals to last for more than 10 years, only sacrificing them when my dog chewed through them or the glue wore out after SO MANY water interactions that I was frankly surprised. Comfortable from day 1, and loved forever. I am a KEEN advocate through and through.

When Keen says order a half size larger I am glad I did. They were MUCH tighter than every other pair I own. I was on the fence about keeping them. I loosen them up and hoped for the best. The rubbed the top of my foot the first day and haven't in subsequent wearing. They are still tight to put on and hopefully they will loosen with increased wear. I am now hesitant in purchasing the second colour offered. I typically wear a 9 in Keen sandals (9.5 uneeks) but 9.5 was tight but I think a 10 would be too big? I love the colours so they are a "cautious keep".

The sandals are lovely but they did not fit my feet because of my bunions so I regretfully returned them.

Purchased the tie dye many months back and came back for the Fuji Rock ones. As someone stated, they are the perfect shade of olive green. I loved the dots in bright colours! I have worn both shoes from the moment I am off work for all my activities, both light and heavy duty. They are a bit of a squeeze to get on in my regular size, but once on they are very comfortable. I don't wear them with socks, so that may require a half size up? I had issues earlier in the year with planter faciates, but after wearing this model of shoes for two weeks, work and leisure I have had zero pain! I have been able to return to my work shoes during the day. Would highly recommend to anyone! Great shoes all around! Waiting for new colours!

This shoe is not quite wide enough for my feet. I debated a while whether it would be okay if I adjusted the elastic tension. In the end I decided that these shoes were too expensive to risk that they would never fit correctly.

it took me several tries to find the right fit as my first pair of KEENs were this style (before they were 'Retro'. I tried the Cherry Garcia in a 9, and they felt snug, but they were no longer available so I went with the tie dye for both me and my sister. I went up a half size and she went up a whole size. I hope that they never stop making the Retro. now if I could only get my hands on a Kiwi colored pair :)

Very cute and sturdy. They run narrow across the midfoot so, beware if your foot is wide. The length is true to size. I had to return them because there is no way i could walk all day in them being that they are so narrow. My other Keens do not have this problem.

I wanted this sandal to fit because I love the colors and need a water/beach shoe. But this style did not work for me. I bought my usual size and literally could not get my foot into it. The instep is higher than my previous Keens and I couldn't wiggle my foot into it. My daughter who wears the same size could but also noted it was harder to get into than her Venice sandal. She may keep them while I continue my search.

I have foot problems but took a chance and ordered these. I love the shoe, but is on the heavy side and I need a lighter weight shoel

I followed the advice of others here and went a half size up...perfect! These are the shoes your teen will say are so awesome...just utilitarian not pretty. I love the hippie vibe of the tie dye. The arch support is ok but the plantar could use more support. They had a minimal break in period and ate definitely better then my Chacos. The heel cup on those were too high for my foot and the some pattern irritated my foot.

Tried them on and walked around a bit in my house and felt an uncomfortable rubbing on my first metatarsal area due to the fabric material of the straps, which is rather stiff and rough. The sole was extremely comfortable and supportive but I Think that the rubbing of the straps would become too irritating On long hikes.

I liked the shoe, particularly the color. The heel started to rub, I suspect too wide for narrow heel. This was after wearing in house for long time to ensure I liked them. They are wider in structure than Newport H2 which work for me. I am returning rather than get injury.

These shoes are so cute! I own at least ten pairs of Keens so know the shoe. I always wear a size 7 in Keens so got these in a size 7. While they fit with no socks, they might be a little short with socks. The style/size is a bit different from Newports. Still love them and will wear them with no real problem.
