Customer Reviews KEEN Elle Backstrap Sandals

I like these sandals and they suit the use case I purchased them for, but there are some faults. The front strap is not as stretchy as I'd expect, so if you have wider feet in the front, you may need a bigger width or to size up. They make a "flip flop" sound when I walk, which I don't love. I got the black and after the first wear I had black marks on my toes on both feet where they rubbed the side of the front strap. Not a great look. I'll probably keep them, because my goal was a nice looking pair of sandals that I could wear in the rain/gross weather conditions without them getting too ratty. Haven't had the opportunity to use them in such weather yet to see if they hold up, but I'm hopeful.

I had to return them because they were a little small and the arch support wasn’t as much as I needed.

Cute and comfortable sandal. Had to send back because strap rubs my bunion, and footbed made my feet sweaty.

They were not comfortable. The band going across my foot rubbed on the cuticle of my left big toe nail and caused pain.

I really wanted to like these shoes! The width and size was fine, but the straps were so tight, I lost feeling in my toes. The sole was comfortable, but the material made the bottom of my feet oddly sweaty. I will be returning.

The strap on this color are much tighter than the other colors. I had to return them because they were too tight.

The front strap as soo tight it made my foot bulge, but the back straps felt like they would slip off. Don't wear these in water or you'll lose them...

These shoes are adorable, but the straps aren't stretchy at all, I literally couldn't get my foot inside them. I have this same pair in black and they stretch just fine. I unfortunately had to return these, which I hated to do because the colors were so darn cute.

Way too tight and no way to adjust them. I’ve tried wearing them several times so afraid I won’t be able to return them but not happy with them.

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.

These were not as comfortable or supportive as expected, also not great looking. Returning.

Love the look of these sandals but they hit my bunion in just the wrong place. Unfortunately, I must return them.

Returned. The strap close to the ankle was cut too close to the ankle and felt horrible

I ordered a size 9. The box is marked size 9, but the shoes are a size 6!!!

Strap on sandals not attached evenly so one shoe is very comfortable while the other—which was attached too far forward—cuts into my toe. When shoes are set next to each other, one strap is 1/4 inch further forward.

The strap crossing the toes was stiff. It was immediately easy to see that it would chew my foot up.

Not comfortable. Not particularly good looking.

It would have fit better if it came in a wide width.

I had to discard them after a short time because the back strap became too lose and started slipping down my heel. I was constantly having to stop and pull the strap back up. So annoying!

Hello, I have been wanting the Elle multicolor back strap for some time, but it was popular and hard to get in my size. I was happy when I saw there was one left and I ordered it. When it came it was a full size smaller. I checked, and I had ordered the correct size. The mistake was at Zappo's. I am sorry to say. I got them by ordering them from a family business across the country.
