Men's Newport H2 Closed Toe Water Sandals

My son has been wearing this style of Keens for over a decade. Water, snow, working out, hiking, it doesn't matter. If my son is not wearing his work boots, he is wearing this shoe in this color. The colors hold up well as do the shoes. He is hard on his shoes and they can take it. This last pair, one of the straps near the heel finally broke after a couple of years. The size is spot on for his foot and the tread was still visible. They are snug and comfortable and do not move around too much in the foot

These sandals protect your feet pretty well, around the house and on trails. They are not as good in that respect of course as solid hiking shoes, but they are an alternative, especially for summer. I will say no more on that, other than after wearing them now for 3 or 4 months I have really grown fond of them, and I am particular about my shoes. Open toe sandals are comfortable, but banging your toes is not, nor is hurting yourself because you wore an unstable shoe. Regarding sizing, my foot is a 12, a pretty standard foot I would say. My foot measures 11 1/4 inches, exactly at the standard size 12 length. I have several pair of these sandals now, both in size 12 and 13. Both sizes work fine for me. I actually think I prefer the 12's, they are a bit more solid on my foot. I expect to wear the 13's more often when it is cold with socks, to give me a little more space. But I can wear the 12's with socks just fine. I have not trouble putting the 12's on or taking them off, just push your foot all the way in and the heel strap will slide on easily. They stretch out after you have worn them awhile, I can't tell much difference between wearing a 13 and a 12. In fact to test myself I put on a pair not knowing the size (I have the same color in both sizes). I guessed that I was wearing the 13 and I was incorrect, I was wearing the 12. I have also walked around with a 12 on one foot and a 13 on the other. I found no major difference between the two feet. I also have the leather version in size 12, they seem just a little bigger than the polyester but not enough to matter much. In summary, at least for me, the issue people have about sizing is very overblown. I would get a 12 1/2 if it existed, but I have often felt that way with other shoes. For me it is either a 12 or 13, and generally I prefer the 12. I have enough toe room in the size 12 of these sandals, they fit fine, around the house, walking trails with my dogs, and of course in the water. They really do dry out fast, If they get wet I just let them dry and put on a different pair. 5/5/23....I still feel the same after wearing these pretty much constantly for a few months. You may think that there is not enough toe room because you may feel some sensation at the toe at times. My bigger sized 13's have that same sensation, that is just due to the rubber caps at the toe. I feel no pressure on my toes walking down steep hills, that is the acid test for toe room. I definitely prefer the 12's to the 13's. They stretch out and the 13's can feel just a bit loose. But the 13's are fine, I can wear either with no complaints. 6/26/23...Still feel the same, I have a pretty standard size 12 foot, size 12 in this shoe works well for me. I have size 13 as well but will use those with socks when it is cold, I like the better stability of the size 12. I really love these shoes. I put on an open toe sandal yesterday for the first time in awhile, yeah more comfortable, but banged my exposed foot twice, and that hurts. I am sold on the closed toe. You have to take the shoe off when you get little pebbles or something inside the shoe, but they slide off and on easily. Great in the water, I have never had pain from banding my foot walking the trails with my dogs since I started wearing them, and they really have good support. Dry quickly after being in the lake.

The best sandals for about everything: water sports, hiking, outdoor summer fun, work, etc. I'm on my 3rd pair over 6ish years because they hold up so well for daily life. Wide toes make them comfortable with a bit of arch support.

I love these shoes for the beach or washing my vehicles, they fit perfectly, are very comfortable, durable and very high quality. Highly recommended!

Ok, so I have a pair of Keen sandals that I've had for years. (Somewhere around 8 years+). Those sandals have been amazing sandals but unfortunately, they were starting to fall apart. They were so old that the size label on the inside of the shoe had worn off and the box has long since been gone. (Originally purchased from an REI store I think). I normally wear an 11 in womens and a 9 - 9.5 in mens. I tend to buy mens shoes instead of womens because of sizing issues. I initially ordered a 9 in the Keen Newport H2 sandals and the foot bed fit okay but across the top of my foot was just WAY too tight. So I sent that pair back. I then ordered a size 9.5 mens and had the same problem. They were just way too tight across the top of my foot no matter how much I adjusted the bungee strap on the shoe, so I sent those back. I ordered a size 10 and the foot bed was a bit big/longer but they were comfortable across the top of my foot. I wore them hiking (as I did with my previous pair that was over 8 years old - hiking, kayaking, every day shoe) and walked across/in the water with them as I normally would. So, now... the size 10's are way too big/lose after wearing them around for about a week and I'm stuck with shoes that are too big. I mean I can't send them back after wearing them out hiking etc. (3rd party seller through Amazon) Funny thing is though, I went into a Dicks Sporting Goods Store and tried on a 9 and 9.5 in the Newport H2, but a different color. Ironically, the 9 fit me better and was more comfortable than the shoes I ordered off of Amazon. I had debated on just buying those but my boyfriend had the same color sandals (he had a similar issue with his sizing and ended up ordering 2 sizes larger than what he normally wears) and didn't want us to have matching shoes. My luck he'd try to put mine on instead of his and tear mine up with his big boat feet. So I'll just deal with the big shoes until I can either find someone who wears the same size and wants them or... something. I don't know. Just disappointed in the issues I had with the sizing. Other than that, I love the shoe, the color and the brand. My old pair, I would wear year round pretty much.

Brown and gold H2. Tend to run smaller and narrow. Great for people who have a narrow foot but buy half over regular size. Great color. Have bought this brand for years . Long lasting very comfortable. Do tend to trap pebbles between foot and bed of sandal. Only bad comment i can make . they are good in water sure footed dry quickly. Not as good in loose rocky terrains but not a deal breaker. Good arch support rear strap is a little hard to get on but comfortable once on. Draw string on top works well hold is good. Will continue to buy

Love these keen sandals, my old pair lasted over 15 years so I know that this is a great project that will last and the fit was perfect and the size chart was a great help. The price was awesome and they look great also this product is well made and holds up to every day use.

Keen makes a comfortable and tough river shoe for certain. This is my second pain in 20 years. They dry quickly and feel like a regular sturdy shoe in and out of the water. The toe cover is so nice and helpful to not stub the piggies. They run true to size. The sole is grippy- not slip PROOF, but definitely resistant. You can walk miles in these just like any other shoe-even when wet!

Well pleased with the quality. Perfect for wider than usual feet. Size runs slightly small in terms of length.

Wygodne męskie sandały. Niezniszczalne. Rozmiar zgodny z rozmiarówką

love keen had them in America for yrs and so glad have them on my feet and have my size too !

El producto cumple perfectamente las espectativas que tenía en el antes de comprarlo. Es un calzado súperversatil, que sirve lo mismo para hacer trekking por sendas o caminos (no rocosos) como para meterlo en el agua. Se seca muy rápido y es muy cómodo. En mi opinion todo un acierto comprarlo. Aunque su precio sea mayor que el de calzados similares de otras marcas, su mayor calidad hace que merezca la pena pagar esa diferencia de precio.

Though the Amazon seller sent the wrong size, but I only realised it after using the pair. If you're looking for a shoe that's great for hikes around water, this one is very comfortable and provides excellent grip, even when crossing streams. I recommend going half a size up if you plan to use them in water, as they tend to fit better that way.
