Product Description
Buckles snap and laces knot, but the Secure-Fit lace capture system on Keen's Kid's Newport H2 Sandals eliminate the unnecessary frustrations with getting ready to go outside. Keen's Kid's Newport H2 has a special waterproof polyester webbing that's better suited for play around water than other sandals with leather straps. There's also a hydrophobic SBR lining that helps keep the straps from rubbing against damp skin (be sure to size properly). Up front Keen's patented toe bumper protection helps protect young feet from unseen trail obstructions and hidden river rocks. Like Keen's adult-sized footwear, Kid's Newport H2 Sandals have supportive metatomical EVA footbeds to optimize comfort. If you live near a beach or your kids just like to hang by your backyard pool, these are perfect sandals for throughout the year.....Product Details

9,999 shoes later, I found my love!By Horndogger
Ok, I confess, it kills me to spend $50 on shoes. But at 38, and on my feet all day, plus filling in the mid-drift...The shoes I wore in the young hottie days are getting their revenge. Worse yet...at a size 10.5-11 W, I canNOT find shoes to fit.
In need of some water wading shoes, I found a purple pair of this model (incorrectly shown as red on this site) that I thought was too "off color" for professional wear, but worthy of play shoes...for a clearance price of $30 comfort to please my desperation, who could deny the deal?
SHOOT. I don't care if they had bright flashing fuschia blinkers and a whoopie cushion to boot. These shoes rock.
I live 3 hrs from the Birkenstock place I found them in WA, and when I head back that direction, I am clearing the Keen sale shelf, and buying a reg priced pair that is appropriate in style for professional wear. The shoe is kind of wierd looking..but I see Birkenstocks as wierd looking (which didnt work out for me--very painful).
If you have plantar faciatis (sp?) problems, here is a house shoe answer. See, I also drop these shoes next to my bed so I can make it to the bathroom in the middle of the night without tearing up my arches.They are SO comfortable.
And the shoe is breathable, but not cold, not hot, not prone to stretching with sock on, no sock wear.
It's years of shoe nightmares come to an end. I have had 'em for 6 weeks now, weigh 235 lbs (fluffy amazon chick) and the shoe looks like it will hold it's own--wet or dry. A challenge, considering size 6, 110 lb girl shoes are made with the same materials as the larger sizes...like harnessing up a chihuahua the same as a St.Bernard!
Hope this helps.These shoes are my hunt completed.Oh, it appears all shoes are made with the same funky, loveable sole.

Great shoes for active lifestyle, worth every pennyBy Que Tal Carolyn
Friends recommended these after I complained about not finding shoes that worked well and lasted. I about had a heart attack at paying $90 for sandals. They're worth every penny and I've ordered my second pair.
I live on a cruising sailboat in the Sea of Cortez, Mexico. My husband and I love to hike and try to hike for two to three hours a day when we're in an anchorage-- starting in the water as we wade ashore, across the beach and up to the peak of the nearest hill. Desert hiking, over sand, dirt and rocks of various sizes. In towns, we go all over on dirt and paved roads and sidewalks. Temperatures are typically in the mid-90's. Prior to getting a pair of Keens, I've never had a sandal or shoe -- even sneakers or hiking boots -- last more than three months; I've even had them fail on the second day of wearing them -- and these have been name-brand, expensive shoes marketed for this sort of activity. The biggest problem has been that the layers of the sole have separated, although there have been other problems as well.
In contrast, my Keen Newport H2's are still wearable after 8 months and about 1,000 miles on them. That's not a typo -- about one thousand miles (I log our hikes and estimated the town miles). They are starting to show wear in the tread, some stitching is pulling out and the webbing is just beginning to stretch in the heels. Note that while we've been over some rough terrain, I haven't taken them backpacking or true rock climbing. I'd guesstimate that half my use has been desert hiking, a quarter on beaches and dirt roads and the rest on pavement and concrete.
Several things that I like:
-- They can go from wading in the water to scrambling over rocks with no problem. They dry quickly and don't cause blisters when wet.
-- Heat hasn't caused them to fall apart as has happened with every other brand I've had (layers of the soles coming apart, etc.).
-- Where the stitching pulled out could easily be re-sewn with just a needle and dental floss -- very FIELD REPAIRABLE!
-- The toe guard is wonderful.
-- The footbed and straps work to give you solid footing and support.
-- The webbing does not stretch and cause the fit to become sloppy.
-- They hold up well to all sorts of abuse.
-- No smell!!
But beware:
-- They do catch sand and pebbles and you can't easily shake it out without taking the sandals off. However, they're pretty quick on and off. Any sandal has this problem to some extent.
-- Don't wear them in deep, hot sand -- it will enter the sandal and burn your feet.
-- Maybe it's just my feet, but they rub a little notch in the big toe nail of each foot. It's not painful, but a little strange.
-- I had to play around with how tight to cinch up the shock cord for the best fit. Take a little time to get them adjusted to your feet.
BOTTOM LINE: These are great shoes for an active lifestyle and can stand up to all sorts of abuse. They last well and are worth their price.

Great shoes.By J. Stewart
I bought a pair of Keens for my trip to Glacier Nat'l Park. They are perfect for rafting because they have the toe-bumper in the front, so it's painless to wedge your feet in the raft. I also hiked for a few hours per day in the shoes, which was also enjoyable, but after a while my arches hurt. They don't have high arch support at all, so I couldn't wear them for too long. My feet got sweaty in the shoes, but they never felt too hot, and with a quick dip in some water, they're clean again (they also dry in a matter of hours)! They seem to run a bit small, so be sure to try on a few different sizes. The width is great, and the colors are fun. Sometimes sand or pebbles might get into the shoe and it can take a minute to remove (you will probably have to take the shoe off), but it's really not a big deal. Overall, I'd recommend Keens for their durability and versatility.
