KEENUnisex-Child Newport H2 Closed Toe Water Sandals

Very well made. Probably the best sandal on the market for the price. The fit is true to size. Very sturdy and heavy duty construction. My second pair. I've tried the other brands. No comparison.

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.

These have been what I was looking for. Very comfortable to wear and walk around in. They are great for water activities including swimming or boating and equally suited for hiking. They provide protection for your toes and comfort while on a rocky trail or a steep climb. They fit snugly which is more comfortable than I thought it would be since your foot doesn't slide in the shoe. Had to try a couple sizes before realizing that. A definite recommend from me.

This pair of closed toe sandals fit perfectly on my foot. They are extremely comfortable whether walking, standing, or sitting. I previously had a pair of closed toe sandals by keen, and I wore them all the time in the summer. I abused them, wearing them in the water, and they lasted for over five years. With the way these feel and look, I am expecting the same type of performance. As you can see by the picture and the scuff on the toe, I’ve already protected my toe at least once. I tend to be a bit frugal with my money, but these sandals are well worth it.

Really love the durability and comfort of these sandals. Highly recommend if you just want a solid pair of sandals that won't slip.

Good shoes, the soles are thick rubber and wouldn't have issues walking around. I used them in the rain and on trails, no slip and very comfortable. The shoelaces adjustment is also a nice addition.Overall build I would buy again, just make sure you get the correct size. It seems to run slightly small.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I saw a review about these sandals online and thought why not give them a try. I'm not a sandal wearer, I always wear sneakers or hiking shoes. I've never been able to find a sandal that I liked. I've tried all different brands of sandals and never found one that was comfortable. So when I saw the online review of these "ugly" sandals, I thought why not. They cover the toes, which is a reason I normally don't like sandals, and I found a pair that was on sale, so I ordered them.When they came I immediately put them on. I'm also not a barefoot shoe/sandal wearer, so I tried them with socks. They are sooooo comfortable. The first day I was like these are ok comfy, my front toe hurt a little but otherwise they were fine. The next morning when I put them on they fit like a glove. I am so happy with them and have been wearing them all day everyday. I walk my dogs 3 times everyday, and have been wearing these. They are so comfy!!! I'm not sure they are "ugly", I don't mind the way they look, and I wear them with socks, which is a very "dad" vibe. As someone who has never found a sandal they could wear, I love love love these sandals. I bought them on sale and will be buying a few more pairs in different colors because I see myself wearing them in the spring, summer and fall.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Newport H2 , 9.5 sandal/metallic grey and black. Fit is perfect true to size, and if you have a slightly broader foot print this is it! Well structured, solid platform AND ridiculously comfortable straight out the box!!! I wear it to go walking on uneven steep gravel pathways and about the house. Have yet to hit the ocean or river, but for seeing no issues! I love the big toe protection rubber facing area, in no-way does it impinge your toes. Just simply , its a well made, sturdy comfortable sandal, a well thought out and attractive made sandal! There is no swoshy movement ! Well worth the expense! Don’t go for the cheap prices, spend your money on something that will last! Keen stands up to its reputation one more time with me! Highly recommend!
