Comments about Keen Newport H2 Sandals - Toddlers' Size 4T-7T:
Our son loves these shoes. I have the adult version and he has been trying to fit into his pair since he was 1. He is happy to be able to wear them now. He can get them off easily, which he finds fun, but need to watch out for flying shoes while he rides in the stroller. :-)
I did find that the Velcro rubs on his ankle a bit though. His feet get a bit hot sometimes. great for playing in the water though.

Comments about Keen Newport H2 Sandals - Toddlers' Size 4T-7T:
I really wanted to love this shoe for my toddler son as we live in Arizona and need a durable, water-friendly sandal for everyday wear. However this shoe is not a good fit for my son's wide foot. The bigger sizes (size 8 and up) are adjustable and have more leeway for width, as I wish this shoe did too. I love them for my 4 year old daughter though and will buy these for my son when he gets into the bigger sizes.

I bought these as an everyday sandal for my 1 1/2 year old for the summer. They stay on his feet well and have never left red marks or blisters on his feet, but when we take them off, his feet smell horrible! My sister-in-law noticed the same effect from her Keen's even with repeated washing.

I love these shoes since elina can fall asleep wearing them at day care or play all day in them since they have great support and are very breathable. I love the colors they come in, it is a real classic style which really looks good with everything. Worth the Price, in my opinion.

I bought the Newport shoes for my son last summer and they were the best! We live in Phoenix where it is super hot and he wore them everyday! Usually people don't wear socks and shoes here in the summer, but you can't run and play in flip-flops. I love the look of these over the teva-style sandals and I think that my active son could run and jump easier in this style as well. It is a tennis shoe with lots of breathing room!
I am getting them for this summer now too and I will be getting them for my kids every year! THe ones from last year are still in great shape (even though he wore them every day). I will be saving them for my next son to wear too!

Comments about Keen Newport H2 Sandals - Toddlers' Size 4T-7T:
We bought these for my daughter after running in sandals caused her to fall and scrape her knees badly twice in a week. Once we bought these, she stopped tripping while running, which has made us all much happier.
These take a lot of wear (they have been my daughter's only shoes all summer!) and still look new. They are easy to clean, and stay on her feet no matter what she is doing or climbing.
We also bought Buster Brown Toddler Expo Bump Toe Fisherman Sandal, which were slightly less expensive. However, the Buster Brown sandals were too tight around the ankle and, although they were sold as the same size, the Buster Brown sandals were much smaller and stopped fitting her feet about a month earlier. The Keen sandals were definitely the better buy.

Comments about Keen Newport H2 Sandals - Toddlers' Size 4T-7T:
After owning the adult version for a few months, I got a pair for my 3 daughters aged 4 to 11. The color selection allowed us to get the same style but different colors which is important for them. It has been a warm summer here so the girls didn't want to wear sneakers but flip flops aren't good for a lot of walking or running around. We've had a few skinned knees due to poor footwear. Also, one of my daughters has really flat feet (like me) and needs the extra instep support these provide. Most sandals don't have this support which is one of the reasons Keens are great. They really are light and cool like a regular sandal but have traction and support like a good hiking shoe. My girls love them. The toe box is roomy which we need. My four year old in particular absolutely loves them- they are her "jumping shoes." She loves to run around and jump in them and they never leave marks or blisters. She is our adventurer so for them to meet her needs shows they are not just a pretty sandal. We've done all day walks (with some serious tag thrown in) in them with no complaints or sore feet. Keen in general is the best and these sandals in particular.

My Son is 14 months old. His foot measures a 4.5. The size 4 (toddler) fit him well, but was quite difficult to get his foot into. So we bought a size 5. I'm a little leery of this large size for my guy (there's a thumb's width of free space between the toe and the top of the shoe) but two mom's who were in the store told me to buy them big, and the shoe manager suggested the size 5 too.
The shoes are great. I'm stil not sold on this large size (I'm tempted to go back and buy the 4 as well) but the cool thing is my son doesn't seem to mind. He wears them with and without sox. He plays just fine in them. Now he has shoes just like Mommy's and Daddy's. This really is the only pair of summer shoes that he owns. They look cute enough to wear with khaki's and button downs (that's about as dresses up as he gets at this point!) and of course perfect to wear w/jeans or shorts.
The brown and orange stitching is the combo we bought and they go with lots of his clothes.
I gave this 4 stars only because if they came in half sizes, then they'd be perfect! I wish they did, but most shoes for baby's at this age don't. The 4's are also slightly big in length, but I can barely squeeze his foot into the opening.
You'll love these shoes and you wont need to buy any other shoe for you young child for the rest of the summer.
By the way, they are easily bendable for new walkers, and they have a little bit of arch support too. Perfect for a developing walker and his feet!
