| I own two pairs of this particular style that I purchased previously. While one suffered a break of the thong (I suppose that's what you call the piece that rests between the big and next toe), which is irreparable, the other pair is going strong. I love these sandals as they are the perfect "hot weather" companion while sailing in light or moderate winds in the Chesapeake Bay. The toe protector has saved my toes on many occasions as I scurried about the deck adjusting the running rigging. I was quite pleased when I received the current pair, as they appear to have experienced a cycle or two of improvements over my previous pairs. They even have a more of a look of quality. Trustfully, the "thong" won't break on one of the sandals as I scurry about the deck. Thanks, Zappos, Captain Tony |

| These KEEN versions of flip-flops are almost the perfect shoe on every point. I still wear the ones I bought on Zappos over 3 years ago. I wear them almost daily in the warm months (6 months of the year here) and just absent-mindedly slip them on for everything from going to the store, the park, and a long trip, to even yard and garden work or trail hiking. They are supportive, comfortable, and seemingly indestructible. Throw them in the wash; they still look almost like new. The toe protector is well designed and gives me confidence to do things in them I'd never do in normal thong-sandals. I think I'll buy another pair, even though I don't need to yet... just for a different color. |

| I was at 1st hesitant to spend this much on sandals. But now Im glad, though there was a solid break-in period for them. When I first got the sandals, I got some blisters where the band was, probably because I wore them all night at a bar the 1st time. And my 2nd toe kept rubbing up where the opening was. But I just realize my feet were not used to being in such specific sandals. Now I absolutely love these guys. So comfortable with great arch support, most importantly, I have NOT stubbed my toes several times now, ranging from the standard edge of the table to the big bones that dogs leave lying around. I love my Keens! D |

| Best sandal ever!!! I bought this sandal when I was in Iraq to help with the back and forth walk in large gravel. Since then I have not been able to find a better sandal. Light, rugged, and unique in its looks. The description of the sandal is true to its word and I can tell you that it far exceeds all my expectations. I have been looking for a replacement or companions to my other pair. I have not seen them for a while, so I think I'm stocking up while they are around. My only suggestion would be more colors and if that is already a done deal. |

| Very comfortable, great for daily use - I bought the previous avatar of these (Antigua H2) for my father who is blind and tends to hit his toes on furniture/legs while indoors. He also had a slip-and-fall following weakness related to hospitalization. I bought these for two reasons: the skid-proof sole and the toe-guard. He has been very happy with these, and loves them. The toe-hold (that goes between the big toe and 2nd toe) cracked after more than a year of DAILY wear. So I bought the 2nd pair, (now known as?) Waimea H2. They are very comfortable, skid-proof, and great for daily wear. |

| I have not worn flip flops in a long time and these felt really weird at first. I almost sent them back. After I wore them for a while, I got accustomed to them. I am glad I did not return them. I think I would have had the same response to any new flip flop. I like them a lot now. They came just in time to put them away for the winter. I'm looking forward to spring when I'll start wearing them again. |

| Great flip flops - This is my 2nd pair of Keen sandals. The get lots of attention - everyone notices them. The best part about them is they cover your big toe - so if someone steps on your foot it's not nearly as bad as it could be, and they are very comfortable. They are great in crowds, too, because you don't have to mind other peoples feet when you can't see yours! |

| I love the ease of summer wear...slip off and on. I have owned four pairs of the "flip flop" style Keens and have been VERY happy with all of them. I have had foot problems; pain is no longer a problem. These gave me the arch support I needed and I wear Keens all year long in various styles. These are the only "flip flops" I can wear. I have my easy summer footwear! |

| Wonderful sandals! I have a pair of Keen hiking shoes that I like so a couple of years ago I bought a pair of the Keen Waimea sandals for hot weather use. I wear them a LOT here in the desert southwest - our summers are six months long. They are so comfortable and long-lasting, that this year I bought a second pair. Just as comfortable, just as cool! They really turn heads. |

| I bought a pair of black/grey Keen Waimea H2 last month. Love these sandals - this is my second pair. They are comfortable right out of the box and are true to size. I've gotten so many compliments on them and always direct people to Zappos.com since this place is the absolute best, hassle free shopping experience. And free shipping to and fro doesn't get any easier than this. |
