Comments about Keen Commuter II Bike Sandals - Men's:
Extremely narrow. I have happily worn Keen Kanyon sandals (size 11) for over a year. They're too long, but I needed the larger size to accommodate wide feet. I ordered size 11 Commuter II sandals expecting them to be 1/2 snugger. What a shock. They are so narrow I couldn't begin to get them on (like Cinderella's ugly sisters?!?). I suspect they are closer to 9 or 9 1/2.
I strongly suggest a store fitting before buying. If they fit your foot, they look like they'll last a long, long time. Well-made...for elves.

Comments about Keen Commuter II Bike Sandals - Men's:
I've commuted several times with these, only about 17mi each way, and they're certainly stiff enough for that.
They are narrower than regular Keen's but not so much that you look goofy walking around in them.
I've got the Ritchey Road SPDs and as a result of their axle placement had to grind down parts of the bottom of the shoe, which I also had to do on my regular shoes so nothing against the Keens.
You still hear the cleats grinding when walking on some surfaces.
With no socks my toe rubbed a little more than I'd like but nothing terrible.
Overall, they're awesome, but I wouldn't do a century in them.

Comments about Keen Commuter II Bike Sandals - Men's:
in keen's defense, they offered me a credit when i contacted them for a warranty replacement. i ordered the springwaters instead and am glad i did. here was my experience w/ the commuter IIs:
purchased in march '11. worn daily for 15mi one-way commute. plastic loops broke within two months. velcro started to fray within four. fabric began ripping within 5. this particular batch of commuter IIs are inadequately built for long-distance daily bicycle commutes and will fail within one year.

Comments about Keen Commuter II Bike Sandals - Men's:
I realize many people may not like such a shoe, but I cycled across the US in one pair of shoes (these ones, the 2009 model). I only had one pair of shoes (originally took two, one being the Keen Commuter for cycling, the other being a regular pair of Keens for walking around at the end of the day). I mailed back the second pair and stuck with the Keen Commuters for the entire summer (3 months). I never had any issues. The only slight downside is that they'll stretch over time and you will need to tighten them a bit more as you break them in. Maybe the new version is a little better in that regard.
Bottom line - totally worth the price I paid for them, for an entire summer of cycling comfort and off the bike comfort.

Comments about Keen Commuter II Bike Sandals - Men's:
They are on the narrow side, so I had to get a half size bigger, and thus have plenty of room in the toe. Was able to adjust the width to accommodate thicker wool socks for cold/wet days. The extra toe space could be handy for a heat pack for the shoe. They do stretch on the pedal up-stroke (I ride a recumbent) I can feel the shoes give a lot especially while hill climbing. That said, they were the most comfortable bike shoes I tried out, and overall, I'm happy with them.

Comments about Keen Commuter II Bike Sandals - Men's:
I bought these cycling sandals b/c I wanted cycling shoes that would dry quickly during the wet winters in Portland, Oregon (nothing like putting on wet shoes for the morning commute). These sandals certainly dry quickly and are wonderfully breathable, but they also aren't very durable. I've had my pair for about a year, and both heel straps have torn. Also I find I can't pull really hard on the pedals when I'm clipped in. I ride a recumbent bike and really need to pull hard on the pedals, but the sandals feel loose - there's no way to tighten the laces much b/c the loop has just a plastic clamp that loosens easily. I'd recommend these sandals only for occasional use (very wet rides, especially). I'm heading out to get a more durable shoe that laces tightly and allows me to pull without feeling as though it's about to come off my foot.

Comments about Keen Commuter II Bike Sandals - Men's:
I have wanted these for some time. The price kept me from getting them sooner, but I am going on tour and needed them. I do think the price is a bit much. I also thought I would need a size larger as these are very narrow, but to my surprise they fit well in my normal shoe size (10.5 men's ). I am a female and have a narrow long foot and must get men's shoes as the woman's are always to short. I am quite happy with my Keens. The 4 star rating is because of the price, not quality or performance so far. Only time will tell if these shoes will last and ware as comfortable as they do now. Good shoe

Comments about Keen Commuter II Bike Sandals - Men's:
Saw these shoes on sale when I was in the store in Sept of 2010, tried them on and really liked them. I was preparing for an off road trip on the C&O/GAP trail from DC to Pittsburg, and thought they would be good in wet conditions. It rained almost every day, and I had dry shoes every morning.
I've done three tours this year, including one with seven 70-80 mile days, and I still love these shoes. They are the only shoes I've owned that don't give me hot-spots with my Speedplay Frogs.

Comments about Keen Commuter II Bike Sandals - Men's:
I've used this shoe/sandal for over two years and love riding with them. But the heel strap design is terrible. The heel strap doesn't lap around, rather it is sewn to the soft fabric at the sole. Both shoes are disintegrating in this location. Only fix on a long trip was Gorilla Tape. otherwise this could have been something good. It won't be as fun to wear my Sidis.
