KEENWomen's Rose Casual Closed Toe Sandals

I really like these!
I purchased these to use for hiking for a trip to Hawaii. I wanted something that would protect my toes but also wouldn't collect water if the terrain was wet. The site suggested I purchase a half size larger, which I did, and they fit perfectly.I've been wearing them around the house to see if they're comfortable and if they will rub anywhere on my foot. I have had no problems at all, and they are very comfortable. My feet are on a little narrow, so I am so happy to find that these fit beautifully. The color is neutral and will go with anything that I wear.They look really well made but I will say that they are a little heavy. It isn't a huge surprise since these are considered more of a "hiking sandal." I hope to come back after I use wear them for a while and provide an update.

Strong sandal
Really well made sandal. Feels strong and can be used for hiking and walking but looks good enough to wear casually too. Fits perfectly true to size. Comfortable. When it rains, u don’t feel like it’s sliding, strong grips. There would have been a cherry on top if the strap could have been adjusted both ways and if the toe covering, fitted over all toes properly ( it doesn’t rub but my little toe slips out sometimes)…i feel it will be more comfortable for just narrow feet. The colour of this one looks like brownish tissue paper ( the one in washrooms that feels like paper ). I have the grey as well and the grey is a prettier colour in my opinion.

These are my new favorite
Wonderful, comfortable, worth a try. Recently have been having a lot of foot pain with any shoe i wear. Recently retired, I move more now. Even my sneakers wouldn’t help. Got these & were super comfortable right out of the box. Wore them hiking in the mountains & had absolutely no foot pain during or after. I’ve worn this brand in countless types of footwear for years & they never let me down. And I still wear them (they don’t wear out). Highly recommend.

Echoing reviews of the design flaws of the ankle strap but probably will
Echoing other reviews about the design flaws: non adjustable ankle strap that takes some wrangling to get on. The Velcro part on top of the strap is to tighten them, which is totally unnecessary (unless you have extremely narrow feet where these would slip off) and that strap also too short to fit the length of the Velcro if you need any give at all. I got mine in black so it’s not that noticeable but I bet in time when things stick to the hook and loops it will annoy me. The webbing design is kind of tight across the top of my foot and push leaving indent mark after just ten minutes of wearing around the house, but I am hoping they may stretch a bit with ongoing wear. I usually wear a 7 (sometimes 6.5 in sneakers) and got a 7 because it was on sale. I think a 6.5 would have been way too tight (usually the case with heels or sandals on my feet). My feet verge on wide (and are very very flat) but I usually wear non-wide shoes, especially in previous Keens I’ve owned. This style is definitely not made for wide or even wide-ish flat feet. If I wasn’t strapped in I’d be spilling over the sides. But… They are cute and feel comfy in the footbed, especially if they give a little. So I think I will keep them in this size because I paid just under $50 for them on sale. If I paid over $50 I would have just returned them because of those design flaws and my feet being a tad squished. At this point I am just keeping them because they are a brand name, so under $50 is a deal, and they will work fine for what I need. But I would not be happy if I’d paid anything over that. There are probably non brand name shoes for under $50 that will work better I just have loved previous Keens I’ve owned and they hold up for many years. These ones were made in the Dominican Republic (saw other reviews of different countries). I think the Bali style of Keens would be better for my feet (or 7W in these Rose ones) but I can’t find either of those at a price point I like.

Practical , stylish, versatile…!
Super comfortable and stylish shoes. I can wear these with dresses AND be ready for a hike or long walks in virtually any terrain. I love the versatility of these sandals. They are easy to get on and off. Honestly they are my top favorite sandal I have ever purchased. They do great in water, sand, rocks, uneven ground. The tread on them is super stable and grippy. They wash well and are well made. They are true to size. I’m a 9.5 and usually wear a ten but in these I’m a 9.5.

Very comfortable
Why did you pick this product vs others?:Ordered a pair of these two years ago and wear them all of the time. Very comfortable for travel and lots of walking. My new puppy liked them too, so I needed a new pair of shoes. I was glad to see that they can still be purchased. Perfect the first day out of the box.

Hard to get feet in - don't breath well on rubber bed - leather uppers - weird strap
They are tight - maybe size up?The ankle strap has an elestic strap under it that prevents you from easily getting your heel into the shoe and the leather around the toes is pretty tight - guessing they need to be stretched to feel comfortable and get a foot in there. I dont have wide feet , but these are tight and the sides of my feet and heels are hanging over the edge of the shoe when I get it on. My feet look like a like 2 saussages squishing out of the shoes - I have narrow feet... hopefully they stretchThey are cute - they aren't painful - yet - but If they don't stretch I can see blisters starting.The other thing I don't like is that the foot bed is rubber - it's not breathable at all - I thought it might be - so these don't really keep your feet cool like Merrell's do or even clarks or Naturalizer Soul shoes.. - they do kind of feel cheap b/c of the rubber foot bed.. Kind of weird to have a rubber foot bed and leather uppers? rubber for water shoes- but the leather can't get wet..They also don't have as much arch support as Merrells do. Not sure they are worth it

Love Them!
Love these sandals! I have 3 pairs. I wear a size 8 and the 8 fits me perfectly. I love the toe box, gives my toes plenty of room.
