Solo que di vienen algo amplio –
This is my second pair of Keen sandals. The first pair I got more than 10 years ago and still use. There is very little evidence they are that old and they are comfortable. I wanted to have a new pair for backup so got these. They were the same size but seemed narrower. I was able to adjust everything so that they do fit. It is hard to buy shoes online rather than in person, however I am very happy with them so now have 2 pair that should last me the rest of my life perhaps. They are very durable yet comfortable.

Compré estos zapatos para una caminata donde tenía que cruzar ríos. Soy número 26 y los compré 26.5 para tener posibilidad de usar calcetines, me quedaron perfecto, incluso con el pie descalzo porque tiene jaretas que permiten ajustarlos. Son ligeros, y aunque no secan tan rápido, algo que me gustó es que no huelen mal después de quedarse húmedos toda la noche. El único detalle es que pequeñas piedras pueden colarse a tus pies, pero también puedes sacarlas fácilmente. Los recomiendo mucho. No hice toda la caminata con ellos así que no sé si son buenos para largas distancias.

UPDATE: I’ve had these shoes for a little over a year, and the stitching has started to come undone on the side. However, it is easily repairable, and the rest of the shoe is in great condition; so, I still highly recommend them!
ORIGINAL POST: First, I’ll say that I absolutely love these shoes!
As my husband and I were planning our honeymoon in Hawaii, we knew that we were going to need some good water shoes. I’m more of a sandal girl myself; so, I ordered both the Whispers and the Newport H2s, and here’s what I found…
The Whispers ran truer to size than the Newports. I order my regular size in the Whispers, which fit perfectly, but I needed about a full size bigger on the Newports. (Not a deal breaker, but just something to note.)
The Whispers have a significantly nicer feel to them, but they do run a bit narrow; so, if you have wider feet, you likely want to go with the Newports, regardless of size. However, while the Newports are wider and are definitely a more rugged shoe with a bigger toe bumper, that also makes them a bit heavier and they tend to clomp a bit more. Depending on how you’re looking to use them, this might be what you need, but for me just walking and hiking around Hawaii, the Whispers did just fine.
I will note that on the beaches, especially the pebbly ones, the sand did get stuck in the Whispers a bit, but my guess is that would’ve happened even more with the Newports as the latter have the bigger toe bumper where sand likely would’ve gotten stuck.
As far as arch support, the Whispers have good support, but the Newports definitely had a better insole. However, it also made the Newports a bit tighter on the top, almost like they didn’t fully account for the arch, which wasn’t unbearable, but again, something to note when choosing what size to order. For me, the arch support was still more than sufficient in the Whispers, and my feet never felt too tired walking around in them for hours.
I’ve also heard comments that the back of the straps on Keens get stretched out after time; so, I also liked that the Whispers were reinforced with ribbon around the back too. It also added a cute accent to the design, making them not only a good water sandal, but also a cute all-around nice shoe. They were so comfortable that I ended up wearing them even when I knew we weren’t going to be getting our feet wet.
So, after walking around the house in them for about 1-2 days each, I ultimately went with the Whispers, and I’m very glad that I did. The fit was comfortable, they weren’t too bulky, and they did exactly what I wanted them to do, which was mainly protect my feet as we explored rainforests, beaches, and other fun sites.
I’ll try to give an update once I’ve had them a bit longer, but after two weeks of wearing these almost exclusively in Hawaii, I can say that I’m very happy with them and would highly recommend them to anyone!

I used to have sandals from Alpine Designs for about 15 years and the bottom finally broke off. These I bought as a replacement and so far (~2 months) they work great. I’ve used them for kayaking, paddle boarding, white water rafting, and also swam in them as well.
I have not tried hiking in them yet, but depending on what surface you are hiking on small rocks can get in and hard to take them out unless you take the shoes off, which can be annoying. But this problem is not limited to these brands, it applies to all sandals of this design. They do not need any breaking in, very comfortable, somewhat easy to put on & off.
They look cute and has good tractions.

I love the look, the fit, the wide toe box ( so important my little toes don’t get squished) They are waterproof, but look good enough to wear ABOUT anywhere. Adjustable straps, to a point, very stable, quality is superior.

I love these Keens, super comfortable and lightweight for hiking a few miles to your favorite swimming hole. Stable, supportive, great fit, look fantastic. Much more narrow at the toe than previous keen water-hike shoes, but not too narrow at toes just not super wide like previous models. Like walking on a cloud. I highly recommend and would buy other colors of the same shoe.

Comfortable, good value for the money, pretty color! Stable, just stretchy enough to get on and feel secure. Fun shoe to wear hiking, walking, swimming. In the winter I wear them with socks on the trails so the rocks don’t get in. Great price compared to big box stores. Runs true to size.

Fits great. Lightweight and flexible yet supportive. I typically wear a women’s US8/EU38. The Keen size chart on the brand’s website lists US7.5 as equivalent to EU38, so I want with that and it’s perfect. (I’ve found that EU shoe sizing is almost always way more accurate than US sizing across all brands.) The loop in back makes these easy to put on. Digs a tiny bit into my outer ankle bones, but these typically soften up with time. I’ll wear socks for the first couple weeks to help break in the stiff parts.

These are great and comfortable. I can wear them even though I have huge bunions.
I love that they cover my ugly feet yet get the air circulation

Love these shoes. Used to wear another brand but they cut back on quality and no longer have supportive footbeds. These are very supportive and comfortable. I also wear them with black footies and they look just like an athletic shoe. Great as water sandals and for hiking too. Very versatile, comfortable, supportive ,cute shoe. So glad I found these for my upcoming trip. Thanks KEEN!

Solid, well made shoes you expect from Keen. I wear them for everyday casual, they feel great. Using the loops on the heel and at laces, they pull on with ease, look sporty. Size runs true, they fit snug and secure to walk in.
