Men's Keen Newport

I love these things, they are great for around the camp around the lake or where-ever. Easy on easy off and super comfy with a heck of a lot more protection that sandals or flip flops.

Love my Keens! I wear them everywhere and any time. In the water, sand, on the trail, to the mall, in the spring, summer, fall, and even in the winter ,here in Tennessee, with a good pair of wool socks. In the water your feet do not slide around in them when wet. Great 4 season sandal.

They are Great! These sandals are as comfortable as tennis shoes and have a closed in toe box to keep you from getting stubbed toes while out and about. They are very durable. I currently have three pair. I have had my original pair for a little over four years now and they are still in great shape. I bought the other two just to add some color variety to my footwear. They are great for going from dry to wet and back to dry terrain or if you just want a good pair of sandals to wear in Spring, Summer, or Fall. The sizing the Newport seems to run smaller than they do on the Newport H2. ON the Newport I had to get a 1/2 size larger than I did on the Newport H2. Enjoy....

In my mind the Newport has become synonymous with the Keen brand. When someone tells me they have some Keens or are getting some Keens this is what I think of. I've owned mine (Bison, size 10 1/2) for a year now and I've never once regretted my purchase. Like any good shoe they've only become more comfortable as I've worn them. The initial fit was a little off from what I was hoping for but with some wearing in they feel great. I've walked around town, stepped around the deck of a sailboat, done some small bike rides in them, worn them in a couple of inches of dry snow (with socks) and haven't had any problems with their performance. The option of wearing them comfortably with socks provides some more variety that really makes them more valuable than sandals where socks are not a plausible option. So far they have been durable although I haven't put them through any extremely abusive situations yet although I feel they will be able to stand true when the time comes. The leather may require some care in the future but having to care for a product to reap exceptional longevity is no con in my book. As far as "look" I personally like the look of the Newport's leather more than the H2's nylon. The leather provides that classic look and gives the wearer some options to transcend the "outdoorsy" look when desired. With the Bison color I'm even able to wear some brown socks under them and not feel ridiculous in situations where I'm dress casual. Also, other reviewers also seem to attest to the superiority of the leather over the H2's nylon as far as longevity though I'm sure there are two contesting schools of thought on this. What makes the Newport's a great purchase is that, if you come in with reasonable expectations, you get what you expect to get-- and maybe even a little more.

really love these sandals. comfortable from the first wear. i actually wore socks with them the first day inside my house (just in case). the first time wearing them barefoot was no problem. great fit. love the keen toe. would recommend these for sure. true to size.
