KEEN  Hyperport H2 Sandals - Men's

Just rec’d them. A nice upgrade from the original Newports. Lighter, softer ride. Colors a bit brite. Scarlet is more of an Orange. Will see how long they last. Had two pair of the originals….

I needed a rush pair of water sandals as I was about to inner tube in the San Marcos river (TX) the next day and my previous Keen water mocs kinda fell apart (after 12+ years). These H2s were super comfortable and grippy / protective scrambling on wet rocks and pokey, slimy river mud. I felt very confident on any terrain I traversed, even the long trek through the neighborhood back to the parking lot. One thing: these were my primary shoes through the Belize coast and jungle during the rainy season. My feet were always damp and the H2s never really dried off in the humid weather (no fault to the mocs). But wow, they started to stink. I had to dry them under the hot Texas sun for a few days but it’s questionable. Anyone have suggestions or similar experiences? Are these constructed with anti-microbial components that can minimize this? Thanks.

The reason I'm giving 3 stars isn't because of functionality, but rather aesthetics. The attractive shiny black gloss color faded almost instantly to a dull charcoal. I remember liking the tire shine look and was disappointed that it faded so quickly, it can't be restored it's some type of cheap coating keen must have applied. Sandal is otherwise keen quality and durability.

I have been searching for closed toe water shoes for years and thought this one would be the ticket. Unfortunately, the webbing is placed in a spot that continuously rubs on the pinky toe leaving painful blisters after only a few hours of wear.

I purchased these as a creek crossing and easy terrain sandal for a long, sometimes difficult backpacking trip. For any extended distance I wore with socks and liked these very well. In creek crossings they did well in keeping any uncomfortable rock or sediment from reaching under my feet. Only thing that kept them from 5 star is the shape of the shoe pressed against my pinky toe eventually, after 12 miles or so, creating enough discomfort that I had to trade for my trail boots, even while still on easier terrain. My favorite sandal so far.

Light weight (compared to my other 2 pairs of Keens) and comfortable. Soles with enough shock absorption without being spongy and high off the ground. I personally need a very stiff insole( which fit in the sandals without problem.

Awesome multifunctional hiking shoe and I’ve found them to be durable and comfortable - definitely recommended (would last longer) if put in wearing rotation.

I wish I could review the product, but you canceled my order because you didn’t have it in stock (even though you we offering it???). Just canceled without any dialogue about changing the order to a different color or fulfilling when you got back in stock. Very disappointing how this order and cancellation were handled.

My Chacos had worn out so I got a pair of these to replace, for around town and in the water mostly. But they are incredibly comfortable and lighter weight than the Chacos, so I decided to take them in for my recent 5-day backpacking trip also, and loved to change into them for my camp shoes. I’ll just say again incredibly comfortable, and I like the cinching style rather than tightening the straps as I’ve had on previous sandals.

The day after purchase there was a big minus tide. I took off down Limantour Beach, then past Sculptured Beach where I climbed across the rocks, waded through tidepools, and finally found the legendary Secret Amphitheater. These shoes were perfect. Great traction on slippery rocks, designed front and rear to miinimize sand and small rocks getting in, and very easy to slip on and off when needed. Love these shoes, highly recommend.
