Keen Newport H2

Kid's Footwear > SandalsRated: ***** by 61 reviews. Also available for: Men, Women, Baby/Toddler Boys, Girls, Baby/Toddler Girls, Toddler Girls

Altrec

Laces knot and buckles break, but the Secure-Fit lace capture system on Keen's Youth Newport H2 Sandals eliminate the unnecessary hassles of getting ready to go outside. The Youth Newport H2 has a special waterproof polyester webbing that's better suited for play around water than other sandals with leather straps. Keen added a hydrophobic SBR lining that helps keep the straps from rubbing against damp skin (be sure to size properly). Up front Keen's patented toe bumper protection helps protect young feet from unseen trail obstructions and hidden river rocks. Like Keen's adult-sized footwear, Youth Newport H2 Sandals have supportive metatomical EVA footbeds to optimize comfort. If you live near a beach or your kids just like to hang by your backyard pool, these are perfect sandals for throughout the year.

Features:

  • Colorful contrast Keen logo just ahead of heel
  • Durable and fast-drying polyester webbing with a Hydrophobic SBR lining
  • Durable high-traction, non-marking carbon rubber outsole
  • Keen patented toe bumper protection up front
  • Keen secure-fit lace capture design eliminates floppy untied laces
  • Supportive metatomical EVA footbed
  • Weight: 8.7 oz. (248 g.)

My Boys Love Them

Rating:*****
My boys measure 5 (he has a wide foot) and 5.5 (he has a narrow foot). I ordered a size 6 for both of them. The 6 is large on both of them. The son with the wide foot that measured a 5 probably would have fit exactly in a 5. The other son with the 5.5 narrow foot could have also worn a 5. They are both wearing socks with them right now so that really helps them not be too big. Also, they are very adjustable so my son with the narrow foot is still fine with them. I haven't experienced stinky feet yet from them but I am sure that will happen without socks in the hot summer weather. So into the washer they will go. One son got the red and the other got the brown. The red is a nice true red (not too bright), good for a boy or girl for that matter. They are also easy for them to put on and adjust on their own and these are two boys who will not wear athletic shoes with laces because they don't want to take time to tie them. These shoes are a little pricey so I am really glad I ordered up a size and am hoping they last a full 6-8 months. My boys are extremely hard on their shoes so we'll see.

Youth Keen Newport Sandals

Rating:*****
These youth sandals are fantastic. Beginning with the ease of putting them on. No laces to tie also they have the patented toe protection that no other shoes have as well as the heel protection. They are virtually indestructible. We live in the country and have ranch land. The boys can follow me in their sandals without having to worry about stickers, mesquite thorns, and cactus penetrating their soles. Also, the soles have a special microban antibacterial sole which helps to prevent foot odors. Finally, these Keen sandals have outlasted all other shoes that I have purchased in the past. I couldn't be more pleased with this purchase and the speed with which altrec shipped the product. Everyone at altrec was knowledgeable and friendly.

Great shoe

Rating:*****
My son is just starting to get use out of these shoes, but they're going to be his main pair for this summer. They stay on well, they can get wet, they cover his toes (he lost a toenail in sandals a while back so we always buy closed-toe shoes now) which is also a requirement for school, and they can be washed easily. Plus, they're red - they'll be easy to spot if he takes them off and they're distinct, which is important to him. They didn't give him blisters, either, which is big because he has bony feet and is prone to blisters.

Great shoe for beach and school

Rating:*****
I bought these for my son to wear at the beach and to begin wearing for the school year. They are great shoes. They are perfect for school as they cannot wear sandals to school, so he can wear these during the warmer months and still protect the toes while on the playground. I got them a size bigger so he could wear later in the fall along with socks . They are easy for him to take off and on, which is a plus, since he cannot tie his shoes yet. I will definitely be buying another pair of these next summer!

"Quality product"

Rating:*****
My daughter loves her flip flops so when she puts these on to go cycling I know that she likes these shoes. She gets a lot of compliments about the color and being somewhat vain, it spurs her on to wear them even more. Her older sister is now asking when she can get a pair. Keens hold up well and this shoe is no different. Whether using them as a water shoe, wading through muddy banks or simply running on pavement, these shoes work for all situations!

Keen sandals

Rating:*****
These shoes are great. My three year old son is wears a pair of Keen snadals that have been passed down from his two older brothers and they look brand new (after I wash the mud off of them). We live in northern Maine on a lake and the shoes are the best for water fun. They wear them to play baseball/soccer in the yard, for hiking in the woods, riding bike, swimming in the lake. They rise off easily. A must have for summer.

EXCELLENT PRODUCT, FANTASTIC SHOPPING EXPERIENCE

Rating:*****
Is it a sandal? Is it an athletic shoe? Is it a water shoe? This shoe is all and more. Stylish, excellent fit, great colors, and durable enough to handle the wear and tear of my 6 year old boy! Both my kids LOVE these shoes! They are the ideal summer shoe. As an added bonus, my Altrec shopping experience was superb! Lowest price and quick free shipping who could ask for more? Altrec you have a new loyal customer!!

Great for women with small feet, too!

Rating:*****
The youth sizes in this shoe are the most comfortable,supportive shoe I have ever worn. I have navy and black and would buy a brown and tan if they made them. I'm on my feet walking all day in a large school and these sandals are a real treat. I have a problem with fit with the women's keens. They are just a bit too narrow for me. And the price of the youth size is awesome, too!

my kids wear theirs all year long! they love them

Rating:*****
my kids are 6yrs., 5yrs., and 4yrs. I purchased a pair for each of them after christmas. They wear them almost everyday with socks to school/pre-school. We love them! I did have to exchange one pair because they were too small, (i feel they run a bit small) however; it was no problem and the larger size came promptly. I'm going to order my husband and myself a pair before summer.

Kids necessity

Rating:*****
My daughter loves these sandals. She can put them on without help. The protect her sensitive toes, and she does not need socks. She can run without tripping. We have enjoyed the freedom they have provided in her play. Her flip flops have been officially replaced with this perfect hybrid shoe. I was also pleased with the service. The shoes arrived quickly and with ease.

Great sandals... a little stinky

Rating:***

We've always had Keens. Always loved Keens. The Newport H2 is this kid's third sandal style. They are easy to get on (yay) and easy to remove. Super great in the washing machine. My complaint is that they are in the wash OFTEN. Why? Because they smell. My son turned 7 a few months into this shoe and has never had stinky feet. Not in any other Keen, not in any other shoe. But these are horse barn stinky! After one wear. I make my kid wash his feet promptly upon removing these shoes. I am embarrassed to allow them to go to school. I leave them on the front porch. Give them a try, they are great in nearly every way. But beware the added bonus - peeuuuw!!

"I can handle them, but they're not my fave."

Rating:***
I'm a big kid D The Keens did a great job of protecting my toes, etc., but my feet had a tendency to get sweaty, and then slide around within the sandal. The velcro straps that are on the kids shoe are a major plus, though.
