Customer Reviews KEEN Damaya Slide

These were awful. I love the Keen St Barts/Bali footbed. I tried these and the footbed is so strange - very different from any of my other Keen shoes. They forced my feet to pronate inward, and the arch was in a strange spot. Just terrible. They weren't particularly cute either. Very old ladyish. Definitely went back. Too bad they just REFUSE to make the St Barts again! Those are the best shoes on the PLANET and they haven't had them in forever. So disappointing. I keep trying everything new that comes out in hopes of stumbling upon an alternative, but nothing compares.

I love Keen shoes and never have a problem with fit or comfort. That said there was just something off about this style. It seemed to fit, I don’t think I could have worn a size larger. The outside edge opposite the arch pressed against my foot in a way that was uncomfortable after a few minutes. I didn’t feel the shoe was tilting my foot inward but it just didn’t work. It’s very good looking, soft to the touch cloth straps with good arch support but it had to go back. I wear a 9-1/2 M in almost all shoes and that’s what I ordered.

I usually wear Teva slides but since they don't seem to be manurfacturing my particular slide sandal any more I have had to search out other slides. I liked the feel of the straps on these slides which did not irritate my feet. I have ultra sensitive feet with bunions and hammer toes - not very pretty feet. Because I live in SW FL, I need sandals to wear year round. These slides looked nice on my feet, I liked the light blue color and they seemed to have good arch support. The deal breaker, though, was you couldn't adjust the straps - no velcro. I need to be able to adjust straps for when my feet swell from the heat. I tried a 9 and 10 and neither fit properly. I usually wear 9 1/2. All in all, they are comfortable slides but not for me.

I wear these as "slippers" around our big house. Have had "runner's toe" for years off and on, so slides give my big toes a relief when I'm not doing sports. They're so comfortable for me. I like the suede footbed because it means my feet don't slip in them. I have to be a little more careful than I would in a single-strap slide when I slide my feet in, but once I do, I'm very comfortable. I would definitely wear them outside the house -- but my purpose was for in-home, patio, a quick trip out to the mailbox.

Fine fit - Surprised to find some arch support!! Exact space for my bunion (gift from maternal grandma). Off to get a pedicure, then show off the new sandals.

This has the footbed that I want -- reasonably supportive and cushy. The downside is that the fabric straps need to be manually adjusted when putting them on -- they do not stay in place and are not attached to each other. To me, this defeats the purpose of a slide-on sandal that I want to slip on in a hurry and go.

canvas straps much to flimsy. could not get the shoe on without sitting down and putting it on. could not simply slip into it. toes got all hung up in the straps

Cute sandal and would've been a good addition to my collection, but it seemed like there was too much arch support. Or maybe the support was so foreign to my foot that I don't think I would get used to it - especially when I change shoes frequently and would then have to get used to less support in other shoes.

I really wanted to love these. They are cute on and quite comfy. I have plantar fasciitis and it is so hard to find shoes that alleviate that problem. I also have ankles with limited range motion, so slipping into shoes can be a challenge. I think if these were leather, they would have worked, but the cloth was just too soft and limp to allow me to get into them easily. I ordered the blue ones. Maybe another color would have stiffer fabric.

I wanted to order these.....but FIRST I tried the SANDAL version (Keen Damaya Lattice Sandal) with "Open Toes" (& NOT the hard rubber toe protector). Not yet here on Zappos. This is a "THANK YOU" to someone else for their Review. The SAME thing happened to me with the Damaya SANDAL version. I felt as IF the sandal was throwing my foot to the INSIDE. Something is STRANGE with the construction (or Composition) of this "Damaya" line!! My Keen hiking boots are GREAT. My Keen Kaci Slides have a nice lug sole and are "Normal" when you walk (I only wanted to swap out the factory insole). Too bad because this slide AND the sandal WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE!

I've been wearing Keen shoes and sandals for over 10 years. This sandal is a no-go for me because of the snugness of the straps. They required adjusting to put on and place without discomfort. Even with the proper placement of the straps they are too tight for my normal size 9 medium foot. Definitely would not describe these as a slide. It's too bad because they look nice and I think the sole would have offered comfortable support. If you have a very low instep they might be better.

Cute and comfortable! How can you beat that?!

These shoes fit my foot perfectly, and I love the color.

I slid this sandal on, and it was love at first slide! Comfortable, light, perfect!

I love these for a comfortable slide instead of the traditional between the toe flip flops. I have the Keen Bali which I love. These are very light and comfortable. Perfect for casual comfortable year around California!

I bought these for walking around Italy, and they are fantastic. They stay on my feet without scrunching my toes. I am wearing them everywhere, as they are the most comfortable shoe I brought. The style is more casual but not totally sporty, so they look great with slacks, shorts and dresses. I can wear these all day with good arch support, even on cobblestone. These are terrific!

Fit and size were perfect for me. Very comfortable material and feel nice on my feet.

This is the second sandle I ordered from Keen, and again it is just to short of a foot bed for my foot. I have a reg size 9. These are super cute, but the straps are uncomfortable and I couldn't keep this on my foot unless I duct taped it LOL.

They felt comfortable from the first step. I have an average foot but the straps are loose. I wish they had a strap adjustment. I think a half size smaller would be more snug, but the length be too short.

I bought these hoping to have shoes I could take from the beach to a restaurant. They work for that in terms of style, if you're going to be casual, but there is very little in the way of support. The material of the top straps is a little rough, so I got cuts on the top of my feet right away the first time I wore them. Otherwise, pairing them with a nice cotton dress or skirt, you can really go from beach to out and about.

This sandal hasn't gotten the best reviews but I decided to try it anyway because of the microfiber sole. I was not disappointed. The arches hit my arches perfectly. My heels hit the soft spot perfectly. The only problem is the webbing is a little loose. I'm hoping this will alleviate once a get good and wet.

One set of the straps are too wide for my feet. Since it's the larger strap going across the upper portion of my foot they stay in place and are comfortable.

Returned these because although the footbed was the proper length, there was far too much room between the top of my foot and the straps. I would have never been able to keep them on.

This is a very good-looking sandal, but the fabric straps were hard to get into, and once on, they felt close to coming off with each step. I found a pair of Clarks that work much better, so I have to return these.

The straps on top are too loose with no velcro strip to tighten at instep. The arch support was very hard. Someone with a high arch might like these shoes.
