I love Keens. I love this style. You will love them too if you do not have a wide foot. The comfort and tread of the pair I’ve been wearing over 7 years is unmatched! Plus they are adjustable, without having to adjust every time you wear them, and the straps remain in place without constant opening or readjustment.However, I’ve tried additional colors since then, and it appears the toe boxes continue to narrow in size. One of the assets I really liked was the wider fit. I did try going up a half size, but no go.So, alas, I will continue to put my “flipper” type feet in the old ones. My black Keens in this style (when they were wider) are only beginning to look a little rough. However, the tread is still awesome.I would happily buy 4 more pair if a wide option was available. In black, you can dress them up or down.Keen, please make these in wide!!! I love my “senior” pair!!!!I had a month long trip to Valdemarsvik, Sweden I'd had been preparing for and I needed to pack light. I wanted a good pair of shoes that would be comfortable, not make my feet hurt after hours of walking/hiking, be able to swim in the rocky fjord and protect my toes, but also look good when I dressed up for a nice dinner or classy occasion. These shoes were perfect. I have really high arches so these might be the best sandal type shoes that I've found for arch support. I got the black and they look great in everything! They even look good with socks. They have great grip on the bottom of the shoe for dry land and also for swimming around like an otter near rocky shores with slippery seaweed. Also, this shoe cradles your foot so your toes, or foot, never slip out like they sometimes do with swimming with other classic strappy sandals. My foot breathes and my toes are very well protected. I'm normally a US size 7.5 and sometimes an 8 when products run small. I tried both sizes and the 7.5 was just a tad too small, so I went with an 8 and they fit perfectly. I will keep these shoes with me, or keep buying them until the day I die. 10/10 worth every penny.GREAT VALUE! EASY transaction, TRUST this vendor! I love this model of Keen with its easy drying uppers, light weight, excellent support. Transitions well from rocking small boat, to wet landing on sand and slipperyn rock, to beach, then hiking over uneven rocks and steep trails. Kept a smaller size of this sandal, but this vendor offered excellent pricing, better than the shoe I ended up keeping. Return was easy, efficient, professional! A+++++I ordered these sandals knowing I would be walking miles this past summer and wanted comfortable shoes. These did not disappoint. The first time wearing them I was in NYC discovering the city. My Apple watch tracked my steps on that day at 35,015 the most I had ever walked in a day. My feet did not hurt thanks to my Keens. I highly recommend them for any activity except for the beach. This style of sandal traps sand. The sandals are comfortable and the back strap keeps them from slipping. Now go buy a pair.I purchased a grey color which I wore for about 2.5 years. I wore it everywhere: in the city, on hiking trails, at the airport, long walks. It's a great pair of shoes! After 2.5 years, the seams are frayed on the edges, but the rubber is intact. I wear the old pair on rainy days now. Loved it so much to buy an extra pair for an elderly person, but she complained the shoe is heavy so she returned it. It's def a "heavy" sandal for the ill. But if you're healthy, the shoe weight doesn't matter.Wow, the first time I wore these I stood for 3 1/2 hours. My feet didn't hurt, my back didn't hurt. Best of all my knee didn't hurt ! They didn't rub my heels when I walked. I was able to walk better. I love the color. I felt as sure footed as a mountain goat! They have a roomy, protected toe box, which is also important to me. I highly recommend these Sandals !I wanted a sandal type shoe with a substantial sole. I love these shoes and usually wear a 7.5 in Keen, but they are a bit tight. I am hoping with time they will stretch to become a bit more comfortable. If I order another pair I will order size 8. The color is fantastic and they look great with both pants, capris, and sundress.Cute and comfortable shoes, love that I could use the try before you buy feature. Initially got a larger size, ordered a size down and purchased those. I wear these to work in the summer. They allow me to be comfortable, but go out on the grounds yet maintain a professional look in the office.I wish these came in half sizes, but am happy with my choice.I have lots of issues with my feet - too wide for most shoes, arthritis, bunion, hammer toe, flat feet, etc; and have difficulty finding shoes that fit and are comfortable. These don't look at all clumpy either. Very pleased with them. I bought them for dog walking over country paths and have found them comfortable and am surprised that they don't seem to pick up grit. I usually have to stop at least once on a walk to empty out my old walking boots. I'm a size 4, but usually have to buy a 5 to get sufficient width. I was able to comfortably fit into a 4.5 with this design though.Very nice looking sandals. I normally wear a UK 7 and ordered a 7. My left foot (7) is slightly bigger than my right foot (6.5). I found the rubber toe section pressed down on my large toe on the left foot which is uncomfortable. It might be something that stretches over time, but these are too expensive to take the risk. I also felt my left foot sliding about a bit, so not very well supported (my feet are somewhat narrow, but the sandals don't look to wide on them). Oddly a better fit on my smaller foot. The back straps around the heel also felt like they were beginning to rub after a few minutes walking around the house. So overall not comfortable enough for the price and I suspect they would lead to blisters. Shame because it's hard to find black synthetic hiking sandals for women.Not the cheapest walking sandal out there, but for me, the most comfortable.Usually I find I have to wear any new shoes in and around the home for a day or two for my feet to get used to them before I venture out and about. Put these on as soon as I got them and wore them for the rest of the day without the slightest feeling of them being tight or rubbing.This is the second pair of 'rose' sandals I've bought from Keen. Oddly, the detailing on these is slightly different from the first, but they are just as easy to wear. They're versatile too, practical but pretty and look just as good with a long flowery skirt as they do with a pair of denim shorts.Very pleased with my purchase.Not only do these look great but they're super-comfy too. I've worn Keen walking sandals for years and, in the past, have always gone for Venice and been happy with them. Needed new ones this year and ordered Rose (which I'd never seen before) at same time for comparison. They fitted like a glove the moment I tried them on and made the Venice sandals seem heavy and clunky and pretty ugly. Pottered around the in my new Rose sandals on day one and risked them on a strenuous 28k walk the next day. They took it all (the many ups and downs, the rocks and roots, the mud, grit, pebbles and sand); they remained comfortable throughout and and I had no blisters or chafing at all. Happy customer here.Such a comfortable shoe, plenty of room round the toe area and fits nicely round the heel. Didn’t need to wear in as the fit was perfect. I have dropped arches and although I have not walked for miles in them but they seem supportive and no aches afterwards. Would like to order again in other colours but seem to be out of stock in the colours I want and the price varies a lot so can be out of the price range I want to pay.
