Customer Reviews KEEN Elle Sport Backstrap

I have tried on so many sandals. I need arch support that helps prevent my overpronation. I also need a shoe that doesn’t rub on my bunions. These sandals fit those needs. I like that you can adjust multiple straps to your foot. The arch support is good. I really like that it holds my heel well. There aren’t many sandals that come in a 6 1/2. I wear a 7.5 wide sneaker, but need a smaller size in sandals. There is only one glaring issue with these sandals. The foot bed has a lot of designs carved into it. As a result, there are lots of little nubs of rubber that stick up and you can feel the on the sole of your feet (they feel like lots of little needles). I tried a second pair to see if it was isolated to that first pair, but it was not. I ended up taking a small pair of scissors and cut off the nubs of rubber where I felt them stick up. Took a while but now I have a wearable pair.

These are so cute! And have good arch support. But why oh why couldn’t the footbed be smooth? When you walk in them it’s like a thousand needles stabbing into your foot. Maybe ok if you wear socks or don’t have sensitive feet.

I fractured my rt ankle and am in a walking boot. I wanted a sandal with good support to wear on my lt foot while in the aircast. This was the perfect choice and will be a good support shoe for when my ankle has healed. Living in FL made sneakers impractical. These sandals give a similar stability and traction without the need for socks or a closed shoe. Perfect fit and good arch support. I’m very happy with the neutral color.

It’s a good thing I didn’t pay attention to the previous review. I loved the look of these sandals, and they a even cuter in person. I normally wear a size 7 and that’s what I ordered. It’s a perfect fit. The price is high end, but so is the product. What I love about Zappos is that they are great with returns, so I figured I can’t loose if they don’t work out. These shoes are keepers!

After wearing these gently for three months the soles are wearing off. Also they fit weird, no matter how I adjust the strap they cut in the side of my small toes, very dissatisfied for the $ these cost.

I typically wear a 7.5 in Keen's that have a flatter footbed. But these are more like a sneaker, so an 8 worked better and allowed for the perfect length in the toe area. I do a daily walk at a fast pace, and feel I could actually walk in these. They feel just like a sneaker. I love how the straps let you adjust all the pressure points. I would highly recommend these.

I was looking for a supportive sandal that would provide stability. I broke my ankle and am in a walking boot. These sandals (I should I say sandal at this point) fit perfectly. I bought the neutral and I am very happy with them.

Straps are kind of fussy at first until you get them set for your foot. Nice footbed with cushion and support. Moderate arch support, but did not hit my foot in the right places, so will have to return them.

This is a weird shoe because the little nubs all over its bed feel like little pinpricks. I’m sure I would’ve had to clip off all those little nubs for the shoes to work at all (as another reviewer suggested) It also feels excessively strapped and some of the straps won’t adjust. I had so wanted to like this shoe, and it was a perfect fit. But for these reasons I was afraid to even try wearing them for an hour so they went back to zappo’s pronto.

Supportive, comfy, super schnazzy.

I bought these last year (in black) and I’m here buying another black pair. The straps are a bit odd but once I set it up to fit my foot, it was just a matter of sliding my foot in and attaching the back strap. So they have been really easy to put on, cushiony with some arch support. They have a cool look to them but some people may find the straps messy. The one negative for me was sizing. My regular size was too small so I sent them back for a 1/2 size larger and they fit perfectly.

Love this sandal, colorful and comfortable. Looking forward to getting lots of wear during our upcoming vacation.
