They are the perfect keen model for wider feet. If you have narrow feet take the cnx. I buy the Newport h2 for two of my three kids. The other one gets the cnx sandals. Bought them for 9 years now and will do at least for the next 5. Perfect shoe for active kids. They come with great new colors this season. And most important: FIRST YEAR TRUE TO SIZE

These sandals are my go to shoes. I even wear them in the winter, so long as it's not snowing. They run wide, fit my high instep, have good arch support, a soft foot -bed and are comfortable for long walks. They run a full size small (I usually get a 3 in kids shoes,, and in these I take a size 4) I have them in 3 colors.

I bought my son a pair of these two years ago to wear while hiking/kayaking/trekking. They are comfortable, have great grip and are cool yet protect his toes. He grew out of his old pair, so I bought him a size up. I have a pair as well. They are durable and practical for being active outdoors. We love our Keens!

Keen is my go-to for kid's sandals and this one doesn't disappoint! Love the new ombre style color options and it always fits my kid well, although I feel like I have to do 1/2 size up. Nonetheless, would highly recommend.

I buy Keens every summer for my 3 little boys aged 3, 5, and 7 and they all end up living in them! They withstand puddles, tree climbing, bike riding, the beach etc etc. I admit that I’ve tried to save money in the past by buying a cheaper version but went back to Keens because nothing holds up like them, specially the Velcro.

These sandals are all my kids wear in the summer! These classics always hold up well through at least two or three kids' wear. They're sturdy and machine washable, and nicely grippy even on slippery rocks. Also, a note to my fellow small-footed friends: kid shoe sizes are two numbers off from women's sizes. So a 4 in kids is about equivalent to a 6 in women's. Which means my 9yo and I can now share sandals (oh boy).

These keen sandals are the only sandals my 11 year old son will wear. He is very picky. Got him a size 5 and they have a little bit of growing room.

We have been buying this specific KEEN model of sandals for our kids for years, and the latest ones are still just as good. Main reason to buy more pairs is just kids outgrowing a shoe size. At full price, they are expensive for one-season use (though good quality), but you can get certain colors at better prices if you plan in advance and buy them off-season. If you have multiple kids of various ages, you can also hand them down and get more than one season out of them. These are the perfect for having a closed-toe shoe that kids can wear during water play, whether around the yard, at a splash pad, or pool side, but also they are well suited as just a general summer sandal. Plenty of grip to avoid slipping. They don't hold water and are easy to dry off in the sun.

True to size. My son is a size 11.5 and the 12 fits him perfectly. These are a great alternative to Crocs and work for the warmer weather and water play. Will buy again.

I bought these for walking in the neighborhood, along paved trails on vacation and running errands, and they're just what I wanted, there's a bit of an arch and the toe box is nice and wide, so these old feet are very happy. We've had some unseasonably warm days lately, so I've been able to try them out, and they're perfect. I have to wear kids' sizes as women's shoes are too narrow and women's size 5 is nearly impossible to find. I bought size 3, and they fit just right.

Always loved these sandals for my kids. Sturdy, antimicrobial and protective of their feet. These sandals hold up so well that they can be handed down looking no worse for wear.

Thrilled to find this style of sandal with enclosed heel for support. Perfect fit if you need a flat fit shoe that does not have a midsole drop. Sole is comfortable yet would provide support when hiking on easy terrain. One can easily cinch up the strap and bungie to provide an even more secure fit. I typically wear a 6.5 or 7 in women's and purchased this in a kids' 6, which was perfect. My LL Bean hiking boots are a kid's 5 so these sandals must run a bit large in length. Width is perfectly roomy.

These are perfect shoes (almost) production changed, I have had to exchange some lately. Seems the sewmanship is not what it once was, or the rubber is not perfectly aligned. Zappos will make it right, just exchange them if need be. There is still no better support shoe for you or your growing child. I have tried them all. Adult female who wears size 7 sandal and 8 tennis shoe, I wear big kids, size 6 for my perfect fit. My foot is narrow to average and I love the little extra toe room. My feet never get tired and I can walk all day if need be. 7, 8 miles, no problem.

Got these for my son who has chronic polyneuropathy. He’s picky about shoes and needed something with more support and stability than Crocs and closed toe so he doesn’t hurt himself from stubbing his toe or dragging his feet which he does more than the average 7 year old due to nerve damage. These are his favorite shoes next to his Saucony sneakers. They’re made so well, decent arch support, strong sole, adjustable fit, and they smell like cococnuts!
