Keen Newport H2 Women's Sandals

Comments about Keen Newport H2 Women's Sandals:

Just got back from Jamaica and used these shoes hiking in the mountains and in the waterfalls. Great stability and traction on all terrains. Good look shoe as well. Can't wait to try them out on my cruise in May at the many ports in the Mediterranean.

I have two pairs of these shoes. The only small difficulty I have is first getting them on. Otherwise, I've worn them walking around for hours and not had blisters or any sort of chafing. They're great.

I bought these for white water rafting and hiking under waterfalls. The arch on one of the shoes had a seam from the factory mold that rubbed into my foot and caused a blister within 5 minutes of wearing it around the house. I was also disappointed in the blue coloring of the shoe. I love the blue and brown color combination, but the blue fresh out of the box looked like it had been set out in the sun for weeks and faded. It was also difficult to get them on and off which was frustrating. When I'm camping, I don't want to struggle with getting shoes on and off. I do like the reported durability of the the shoe and believe it would have had good traction. I also liked that the toes were protected on the front of the shoe and on the sides. With many sandles my little toe tends to pop out of the side, but they were fine on these shoes. I bought Keen's after reading lots of reviews and I do believe they make good products, but they have a few kinks to work out. I returned them to the store and am hoping to have better luck next time.

I have a very difficult time finding shoes
for my size 11W feet, so after trying on the Newport, Newport H2, & Whisper styles, I was pleasantly surprised to be able to purchase the Newport H2 in size 11(regular). I would say that both Newport styles fit like an 11M in length & through the heel, but a definite 11 Wide through the ball of the foot. In contrast, the Whisper style fits like an 11 or 11 1/2 in length, with a medium width throughout the shoe.
Someone with a medium width foot could probably fit into all three styles, but I would definitely recommend Newport or Newport H2 for wider feet, and Whisper for narrower feet.

The only thing it does that can make it a bit uncomfortable is rub the top of my last 2 toes on my left foot.
I really like that I have a sandal that I don't feel is going to come off when I walk and there is good traction.
