Comments about Keen Newport H2 Sandals - Women's:
Excellent overall comfort, including support and weight of shoe. Got small sore spots/blisters from stitching on ankle edge, but will likely not be a problem once "worn in".

Comments about Keen Newport H2 Sandals - Women's:
We took a trip to the Oregon Coast over Spring Break, and expecting colder weather, I didn't bring my old Keen Venice shoes. I needed something other than flip flops to walk on the beach in and go tidepooling at Yaquina Bay, all the while climbing up and down the beach cliffs and trails going down to the ocean that was also comfortable. My old Keens are looking ragged, and though they're still physically intact and in good shape, I needed new ones anyway-so I purchased a pair from the Portland store.
I've owned Keens before, which is why I opted for hte Keens over another pair of Chacos for walking along the coast. They were a little tight at first, because I have extremely high arches, (thus the "too small), but they ended up doing their job beautifully: I walked many, many miles around town, on the beach, on beach dunes, up and down cliffs and hills to get to the water, etc., and my picky feet were happy the whole time. Though it was an impulse purchase while on vacation, they fulfilled my needs and made my feet happy!

I bought these before a trip to Costa Rica and wore them the full time we were there (and airport). Great for hiking, even in the rain (they dry fast) and on muddy slopes. Also great at the beach/in the water. Plus they are stylish in a casual sense!

I took these to Belize on a yoga retreat and used them to hike around Mayan ruins, hike/climb through a cave, canoeing, etc. They were a last minute purchase and did not break them in before I went, but they were great. Not the most attractive shoe but really comfortable for hiking around in wet areas. They don't dry super fast though. All in all a good purchase.

Comments about Keen Newport H2 Sandals - Women's:
I bought these shoes specifically for the Kalalau Trail in Kauai. It's 11 miles one way with moderate terrain. I had done it 2 times prior and thought these shoes would be best as there is varied terrain, water crossings and potential of walking in mud the entire length. We were fortunate and had good trail conditions. About 3/4 of the way IN I noticed my heals slipping. I synched the lacing and they just kept slipping. I then noticed that the shoe was falling apart on BOTH feet on the outside stitching where it says "Keen" Anytime I had to push off my foot was moving. Not good!! I wasn't even to our campground yet AND I still had to come back out. Duct tape to the rescue. Returned the shoes. Very disappointed as I was really looking forward to putting many miles on them.

Comments about Keen Newport H2 Sandals - Women's:
These shoes look really cute and I like how they feel. The only thing is, I noticed the strap tugged at my heel a little bit when I walked. I wasn't sure if it's just the way I walk, the shape of the strap or if I didn't tighten the shoes properly. Either way, I decided to return them just in case the little tug could become a blister. I think for most people for casual wear it would work fine. I think depending how you walk, it could cause rubbing at the heel if you used these for hiking.

Comments about Keen Newport H2 Sandals - Women's:
I bought these sandals for a camping trip and am pleased with the durability. I've hiked and waded in the shoes - lots of rocks get stuck inside and getting them on and off is a challenge. They are hot too. That's why I don't give them five stars (the heat factor and on/off issues). They are comfortable after break-in and are high-quality sandals. All in all, a good purchase. (I have a slightly wider than normal foot, so that may explain the break in issues - however the sandals do expand a bit.)

Comments about Keen Newport H2 Sandals - Women's:
I wear these Keens while traveling in hot locations, for paddling, and casually. They are super comfortable. And they look good. I get lots of compliments. The only con I can think of is that rocks can get in easily, but they are also easy to get out. I highly suggest buying a pair of these amazing sandals.
