Customer Reviews KEEN Newport Slide

I usually wear a 7 in Keens, but irdered a 7.5 - even then the shoe was too narrow and short. Every step i took resulted in walking right out of the shoe. I lived hiw they look, but had to return.

This was such a weird fit, I had to return it. The issue was that when my toes were aligned to the toe contours of the footbed, my foot was angled in the shoe such that my heel was hanging off to the side at the back, kittywampus like. If I aligned the heel, the toe bumps were uncomfortable. So back they go.

I usually order a 7, but this time I ordered a 7.5 and it felt too small overall and definitely too narrow. Every step I took resulted in my walking right out of the sandal! I loved the look of them, but if the size/fit don't work, there's no reason to hold onto them.

Very frustrated and sending back. These were first slip on I've tried but are "challenging" if you happen to have bunions. The two top bands need to be stretched out in order to get my foot in. Once on it's the typical roomy comfortable footbed I associate with Keen sandals. But if I'm having to loosen and then re-tighten the lace up section it defeats the purpose a shoe that can be kicked on and off quickly. Hopefully I can find a style that is cut lower over the top of the foot. They probably work great for someone with normal feet.

These are the same size as previously-ordered Keen sandals (not slides) but the toe box is very different in width. cant seem to get my foot all the way in and if I do get close, my heel is very close to back of the shoe. Very uncomfortable, not really usable. Disappointing for sandals in this price range.

Why is Keen selling sandals that don't allow for the height of a normal human foot? These are unwearable for me because they fit so tight at the top of my foot (from toe to mid-instep). The color (drizzle and lavender) is nice.

You really can just buy a used pair of Keens on ebay and then squish the back down to make them a slide. I've been doing that for years.

I have purchased Keen's Whisper in the past -- a few pairs -- and was looking for a slide that I could get in and out of quickly with the dog or gardening. I was very surprised at how uncomfortable these were and how I didn't know if they would "break in" over time. I had relatively new Whispers to compare them with and there was no contest. Make Whispers in a slide and my wishes will have come true.

I echo what other reviewers have said, which is that these are uncomfortable and too small. I have the full-foot heel strap Keen Newport H2 sandals and wear them almost every day, so I was really surprised at how bad these were. I am guessing something major happened on the production line.
