I loved the look of these sandals and they are super comfortable. I go between a 9 and a 9.5 in Keens and I needed the 9.5 in this shoe. I ended up returning them though because they are so loud. Think “flip flop x 10.” I never thought I needed quiet shoes but when a colleague wore this exact style to work and we started laughing over how ridiculously loud they were I decided to send mine back before wearing. There are other Keen sandals I like that won’t make me self conscious when I walk around!

I looooooooooove these sandals. Work or play they are comfortable. I am a hairstylist and can wear them 12 hours and still feel good on my feet.

Very cute shoes. Colors will go with many things - including the gray pajamas I was wearing when I first tried them on. There is a high arch in the shoes. Hoping that doesn't become a problem

Just delivered today! I put them on immediately and they are perfectly comfortable right out of the box! Cute, comfy and sporty. I have a feeling these will be my go-to sandals starting today through the summer.

These shoes are VERY comfortable and cute. Goes well with jeans and skirts. I wear an 8.5 or 9, (depending on shoe brands) and these 8.5 Keen Elle sandals were a perfect fit. I’d rate it a perfect 5 stars but had to take one star away overall because they make a slapping flip-flop sound when I walk. None of my other slingback sandals make this kind of noise. I wore the shoes outside to run an errand and that’s when I discovered the noise, so unfortunately I don’t think I can return them. (Zappos, please let me know otherwise if I’m able still). I’m wondering now if I had purchased a size larger 9, the noise wouldn’t be present. If flip-flopping slapping noise bothers you, this might not be the sandal for you. If it doesn’t bother you, then go for it. They’re super comfy and go with different outfits.

I feel lucky to have found these sandals! I love Keens and these are so stylish and comfy. They were the last ones on Zappos so I jumped on it. I’m so glad I did! They are so comfort and cute! I highly recommend these. I have had trouble with finding the sandals I want lately - this was so refreshing to find such a great pair!

Ive been a Keen fan for a long time and had been missing the arch support that the old styles had. These sandals don’t have the high arches at first sight but the footbed molds to your foot and feels great. These will be my go to once summer is here!

I have not worn these for an extended time to know about long-term comfort, but so far they are very comfortable. The elastic straps are tight enough without cutting into flesh. The soles are a little squishy with some arch support. It feels like they will really conform to my feet as I wear them longer. The only possible issue I see is that my heel lifts off the footbed a little with each step because of the stretchy elastic straps. I could see my arch getting tired after extended walking. But so far, these are winners!

Usually wear a 7 1/2 or 38, keen suggested 8 1/2 and that fits. The straps don’t adjust and the one across my toes was tight at first, but has loosened to comfortable. The base is supportive and bouncy in a good way. Mine are blue and there is blue dye on my feet when I remove the sandals.

I wanted to love these shoes so much! The strap over the top of my foot rubbed my toes and hurt after walking around the house just for a few minutes. They also are strangely loud like flip flops but even more so. I loved the colors (pink/grey/white) and they would go with a ton of my clothes. Unfortunately I had to send these back.

I found these underwhelming. They look like a “comfort sandal” as opposed to a cute sandal, but they are not actually that comfortable, so what’s the point? I ended up returning.

Perfect fit. I have narrow feet and keens can be too wide, but the thick elastic straps fit great! Def would buy again.

These are so light weight! There's a little cushion in the sole but you can still feel arch support. I liked them so much I ordered a second pair as a gift.

Love these sandals. I rarely buy shoes online as I have a wide foot. I bought 1/2 size up and they are perfect! So comfortable.

These are super cute and comfortable for 90% of the population but not me ... I have some foot swelling issues and can't wear anything elastic. If you have normal feet, you'll love these. They also look great with any nice pedicure !!!

These Keens smiled at me online and I had to have them. They make me happy. They also make my feet happy as they are SO comfortable. The perfect addition to your summer wardrobe, no matter where you live ...

These are super comfy and stylish. A lot of reviews are saying they run significantly large but this was not my experience. I normally wear a 9.5 and a 9 was fine in these so I would say just a half size below what you normally wear should suffice.

THey are perfect except, the front strap on the left sandal rubs on the knuckle of my middle toe.

I'm not sure why everyone is saying these run super big. This was not my experience. I went down a half size and they are fine. These shoes are super cute and comfy, I'm excited to take them on a vacation next month.

I returned these because they were too narrow. I wear a wide most of the time but sometimes I can wear a medium width in a sandal. They are stylish and looked great on my feet. One strap felt looser than the other.
