KEEN Men's Newport H2 Sandal

Brilliant kit from keen as always

Fits like a hand shoe and the soles are quality, won't ever need another pair! 👌👍

Good quality walking sandal which looks and feels really robust, like it will be very durable. Supremely comfortable and lightweight once you have got it on, with an easy drawstring to set the tightness. I have only given four stars due to the fact these feels a little tight, I would have gone one size larger had I realised, but I already have another pair of Keen summer walking shoes and these were on the generous side, so felt confident buying my own size 11. Another minus point is they are very hard to get on, as the rear ankle strap is not very elastic; these would certainly benefit from some means of adjustment, though I stress that once they are on your feet, they are very comfortable. These are good for moderately rough terrain and have already used them for several full day outings without any problem, proving to give good protection, while also being very flexible and giving good grip on all surfaces.

Replacement for high mileage similar item. Did not disappoint, comfortable, supportive and little or no breaking in required. Size true to info chart referred to. Bonus being great price (for some colours) Happy days ahead.

Very supportive sandal. Bought it and went immediately on holiday. So comfortable and no "wearing in" required. Toe cover meant that it functioned where I might otherwise have needed to use a trainer - but was so much cooler to wear. Only concern for a buyer is that I needed to get a size larger than normal to get my foot into the sandal easier.

Excellent product.

Having purchased circa 10 pairs of these (UK size 11) in the past, the last two pairs have been very poor quality. On the penultimate pair the sole parted company from the upper in about 2 months and in the last pair the foot entry was so small my foot would not pass through. Very disappointing after 8 years of complete satisfaction. Now changed back to Shimano Fishing shoes

My third pair of Newports. I’ve worn one pair out in two years and I walk a lot of miles as I love hiking and backpacking. My app tells me I average about 11-12 miles a day over a year. Use them all year round for walking around town, going to the pub, playing golf, hiking on trails in the mountains, etc. In winter I team them with waterproof socks.Pluses: extremely comfortable hiking sandals, very good toe protection, very durable and long-lasting. Fit true to size. The elastic tightener is reliable, doesn’t accidentally loosen and holds the foot in the footbed. Dry out quickly. Thick soles give loads of cushioning on rough ground. Can be washed clean easily when they get muddy.Negatives: Footbed is dimpled to aid grip and ventilation. When new it’s a little abrasive so I wear those invisible/ankle socks to reduce friction. Like all sandals little bits of stone can sneak in so I need to stop walking and give them a shake. Neither are serious issues.Personally I find driving a car when wearing them is ok but thick soles mean some adjustment to the driver’s seat is needed.They suit me perfectly and I trust them.
