Best sandals ever! | |
| Rating: | |
I first bought a pair of Keen Newport H2's on a trip up north visiting family about 4 or 5 years ago. Since then I have bought 3 more pairs and wear them literally every single day. Maybe the greatest thing about these is that if they get a little dirty, sweaty, etc you can just run them under the faucet for a while and leave them tilted up to dry in your bathtub. Or if really bad, use a little soap in this process. They clean up good as new. I've worn these for everything from hiking Na Pali in Hawaii, to trekking through the woods, to theme parking, to walking through ankle high puddles in thunderstorms, to work with socks and business attire for years, to just crossing the street to get groceries or my mail. I hope Keen never ever discontinues this line. Apart from their phenomenal functionality, I absolutely love their look. The next biggest draw of the H2's as sandals for me is that they have a closed toe. You'll never stub your toes or be scooping up sand or other debris in these. If you do wear them with jeans or long pants, if you wear a matching sock no one will ever know you're even wearing sandals either. They blend in looking like shoes, but since they are sandals they let your feet stretch out and breath. Also are a wonderful thing to wear when you're traveling and in airports having to take your footwear off and on. Once adjusted and on your foot, a simple pull down of the rear strap gets them off easily. That being said, because they are a full sandal with rear material, they never come off. I've worn them on roller coasters and short runs many times. My only reasons for ever even replacing these has been for the sake of having another color or just because I've literally worn them 365 days a year and the tread has worn down. But they will last you a long long time. I'm just unusual in wearing mine so so much. Even with that though, it's taken me a good 2 1/2 years to wear the tread to a point where I might (and I only say might) need to replace them. You don't generally find these on sale very much, but as I've said with all of their different pluses in this review, they are WELL worth the price. Buy these!! | |

Very comfortable, good traction when dry | |
| Rating: |  |
These feel like more of a lightweight, barefoot hiking shoe than a sandal. The footbed is very comfortable, and they are easy to get on and off (even when wet, using the tongue and heel loops). On dry land, they have excellent traction and provide good support. I'm sure that they would be great for beach or boat use, but (as some have noted) they don't provide great traction on slippery rocks. I spend a lot of time in rivers, and while the toe-protection is wonderful, the traction on slippery river rocks is less than I hoped. Obviously, most sandals have problems on submerged, slick rocks. But I have found that if you are wading with these sandals then get out and scramble on dry rocks, the wet soles lose much of the traction they had when they were dry. | |

Great in Water, Good on trails. | |
| Rating: | |
| These sandals have done everything that I have asked of them, and did it well. They are all day comfortable whether the time is spent on concrete, trails, creeks, streams, or rivers. They track very well on rock and dirt, and as well as I could expect on mossy rocks in streams. I have only dealt with two problems so far. First, small objects, such as pebbles, flick up under your foot quite frequently, and can be very difficult to get out without removing the shoe. Secondly, and quite offensive, they really make your feet stink after wearing them for even a short length of time. I have never had a problem with foot odor prior to having these, but after I had them for a few days it got really bad. I now spray some odor destroyers spray foot powder in them each time I go to put them on and this seems to have almost completely fixed the problem. The soles are supposed to be "anti odor", but this is one aspect of the shoe that absolutely does not work. | |

Great Sandal! | |

| I only started wearing something other than a tennis shoe or dress shoe about 5 years ago. My wife purchased some water shoes for my son a year ago -- they were the Keen Newport H2...and I've wanted my own ever since. What drew me to the shoe was the covered toe area; I like the comfort of sandals, but worry about hurting/jamming my toes. Anyhow, the shoe feels great -- it's quite the stable shoe. My only concern was the issue of the rubber footbed, after having read another review that despite being a sandal, the footbed makes for a sweaty foot. While that comment turned out to be true, I found that the more loosely the sandal is worn, the less the foot sweats. Plus, I realized that feet always sweat in a shoe, but we don't notice it as much in a regular shoe because we're wearing socks. Bottom line...this sandal is a must-have for sandal current sandal wearers and sandal wearers to be. | |

Keen Co. Please never stop producing Newports H2!!! | |
| Rating: | |
| Purchased Keen Newport H-2 in green madder brown. Great color green more a faded olive which is a good neutral. This is his third pair in about six years; ( he wears constantly and eventually he does wear down the inside part of the heel) but they still look good he thinks he doesn't need a new pair because overall they look so good. Washable, tough, comfortable, support, versatile! Biking, climbing on rocky beaches, long day treks,easy on and off then out for the evening with some khakis they look fine. Also he likes the toe protection. Newports are worth every penny. Do order up a half size. I have a pair and found the half size up to be true. Overall high recommendations! Altrec has smoking fast shipping and best prices I found. | |

"These are the best shoes for outdoor activity I have ever owned. They are good for the office also." | |
| Rating: | |
| I am on my 2nd pair of keens. I have had the other top brands. These are by far my favorite. I would not buy a 2nd pair (nylon) if I where not totally happy with the 1st pair (leather). I wear them everywhere but the boring formal occasions. I was in China for 15 days. They are the only shoes I had. I use mine for most of my personal daily activities. At the office (I am in the software biz), daily walks, wilderness trips on my kayak, & everywhere. I just wore them for a rugged day hike at red rock canyon outside of Las Vegas. We where climbing over, & under ankle twisting boulders for hours. My Keens were perfect. After 2 years of constant use they are still pretty good. | |

Perfect | |
| Rating: | |
I have had 3 pairs of these over the last 3 or 4 years and they just rule. I originally found a pair for $30 in a UK branch of TJ Maxx - my Nike sandals had lived a long life but were done and these seemed like a cheap quick-fix. Well, how lucky was I. They have done everything - hiking on the Isle of Bute in Scotland, rock-scrambling in Death Valley, river crosses in Southern England and general tourism around the globe. They are a perfect fit and the adjustable toggle is a great addition - for general walking it is best off, serious walking needs it tightened. They are super-hard wearing, quite easy to clean and all-round the best technical sandals I have ever owned. Buy them ! | |

Awesome | |
| Rating: | |
Sandals are great! A little stiff on first wear, but broke in quickly and has not gotten soft. They have just the right flexibility and firmness. They also recover well after getting wet and the colors so far have not dulled. Easy to put on and off. I have even wore them without securing the back ankle strap and the sandals are fine for casual walking and stills maintains its form and function later. The sandals have not stretched out or shrank. Thus, get the perfect size. They do run about a half size bigger. So thanks to the prior reviewer who advised to get a half size smaller. Overall, a very versatile, comfortable, breathable, and toe protected footwear for all types of outdoor activities. | |

Keen Newport H2 vs Keen Newports | |
| Rating: | |
I have been wearing Keen Newports almost daily for about a year. They are one of the most comfortable examples of footwear I have ever owned. Also they seem to be well made, they still look like new after all this wear. No failures. | |

Like my new Keens | |
| Rating: | |
I purchased these Keens to take on a trip to Florida. We were at Disney for 7 full days and at the beach for another 4. I broke them in by wearing them with socks on for a couple of weeks before the trip. I did have some issues during the trip with the shoes rubbing but I guess that should be expected with wearing new shoes for 9 miles a day. I wore them every other day to give my feet a break. I really do enjoy the shoes and the flexibility they offer--allowing me to trek through the concrete jungle at Disney or on sandy beaches. | |

I had a problem width them | |
| Rating: |  |
I've wanted this sandal from the first time I saw it, so when I read a review indicating that their wide foot fit with no problems, I ordered them. They came and they are really on time. I would love them if they fit. If you have a wide foot (eee) forget them. Most wide feet have a high arch and this sandal has no volume. It's made to fit tight and does. Alas, they got sent back. To those of you who have a regular (d) width, I envy you. | |

Well, I got my pair the other day and tried them on. They seem to be well made and high quality, and I'm sure they'll more than stand up to anything you can dish out to them and come back for more. Maybe I have sensitive feet, but the bumper in the front of the sandal made my feet sweat. Too hot! | |

Even more disappointed | |
| Rating: | |
I previously wrote a review and now have more to add. While the sandal is steezy and 100% perfectly functional they just don't last. I've had mine for 2 months in Juneau Alaska kayaking, hiking, and rafting and they have already fallen apart and are unusable. sadness... | |

Here's the Rub... | |
| Rating: |  |
Tried them first on a trip to the Keys last week, fishing the flats from both boat and overboard. They fit well, and I was especially thankful they had the tighten down bungee lacing to secure the sandal from pulling off. some of the flats on the bay side are bedded with fine silt that seems more like quick sand, and grabs everything stepping into it. on the neg side, the tops of my little toes were rubbed sore by the webbing on both pair, it may be just an anatomical issue with my feet, nonetheless, it made wearing them uncomfortable the first few days. hopefully it'll diminish the longer I wear them, if I can continue. | |

H2 a different Newport | |
| Rating: | |
I purchased the Newport and H2 at the same time. One for street and one for stream. Somehow, the H2 felt slightly shorter and more narrow in the toe area. Granted, I have a hammer-toe, and may be too sensitive to these things, but just wanted to share that the H2's did feel a bit different than the regular leather Newports. Up a size would have been too big, but my regular Keen size just wasn't comfortable in the H2 model. | |

Comfy, Supportive..... Not the most durable. | |
| Rating: | |
While these sandals have the comfort of Keens, the stitching seems a little under par, as the stitches began to come out on the side the second day wearing them. I was able to fix them, just to avoid the trouble of shipping and returning. I also wish the heel strap were a bit tighter. Otherwise, they're great. | |

Keen H2 suppose to be odor resistant | |
| Rating: | |
I purchased a pair of Keen H2 Sandals. I wear them on my wave runner and casually. They are supposed to be odor resistant but they are not. That is one of the main reasons I purchased them because I knew they were going to be wet the majority of the time I wear them. They might not have as bad an odor as normal sandals, but they do have an odor. I love everything else about them. | |

Good but Hot | |
| Rating: | |
These sandals are very comfortable, but since they have the black rubber toe they tend to hold heat in when you are not moving around. Don't expect that cool Birkenstock feeling, the air does not flow through these sandals unless you are moving. In cool temps they are great and in and around water they are great. They look good and are well made, but if you want sand and air to breeze over your feetbuy flip-flops. | |

Versatile | |

Great, fun, versatile shoe with really good support. I love the solid sole. I feel the arch is slightly forward (for my foot anyway). Mine are holding up fairly well, but I feel they have stretched out nearly a full size. Little rocks and sand are a pain...but then again if I didnt want a sandal I would have gotten some Salomon Amphibs. | |

| the shoes are wonderfully comfy, work great in water and on the trail but the dry super slow, are a pain when things get lodged inside the shoe and are kind of flimsy if you ask me, the strappings that keep your foot on the sole are QUITE easy to tear. mine did. im not going to buy these again | |

Dissappointed | |
| Rating: | |
upon buying the sandal i was super stoked. extremely comfortable, very functional and quite fashionable. Problem is that the sandal absorbs your sweat and after acouple days of wear smells terrible I wear them every day and the only other problem is that the insole gets slippery when wet and the moisture doesn't escape. | |
