I had a manufacturing defect in one of the shoes which was replaced with very little hassle even with out the receipt. It is nice to have a company believe you when you have a problem

This is my second pair of Newports! I literally wore out the previous pair. Functional, comfortable, and protect your toes while still allowing you to "air out" your feet in sandals!

I've been buying Keen Newports for years, and could always reliably count on comfortable fit at size 13. In the past few years, this has changed, and it's not my foot size. The Newport line is now a full size smaller than previously. This has resulted in returns until I realized that I must buy the shoe in size 14.

I wear these all the time: out for dinner, hiking, kicking around.

I have several pairs of these sandals. This type is a bit less supportive and comfortable.

I like the looks but after two weeks of daily wear I have blisters on my feet. I do think keen has put enough though into how these shoes would react with bare feet. Maybe they will get better in time?

All black very stylish. Have had 5 pairs of Newport's, only one with synthetic covering on top never buy again! Synthetic covering has no give, difficult to take off and on. Pull string to tighten upper , has no elastic and no good either.

I really like the fit and comfort. They make good sandals for everyday wear, they look nice, and I especially like the way the design protects my toes from injury.

Some years ago, walking around Sonoma square, decided to get new sandals, took off and threw those I had on into a trash bin, continued to walk around the square barefoot until discovered a shoe store where I was shown, and purchased, a heavy leather open shoe. My relationship with Keens was born. I liked the rugged appearance, then the feel, left the store properly shodden. Born with flat feet that at 76 were starting to dilapidate, the Keens provided a type of support I'd not experienced before, they actually conformed to and held the bones of my feet together with the adjustable tension of the leather straps. Discomfort from foot arthritis, partially relieved, nevertheless persisted until I added and eventually superglued in Sofsole inserts with maximum arch support. The combination provided the most comfortable footwear I've had in years, With diminished pain I began to wear them everywhere, on planes, trains and especially when on my feet for extended periods. After, I don't recall exactly, about 10 years, I wore the Keens to Fla where I assisted my first ex-wife with the cleanup of her estate after Hurricane Irma. Wore the Keens while chain sawing and chopping up debris. It was miserably hot but my feet were cool. It was during that period I came to a realization of how much I appreciated the shoes. But by then they were wearing down unevenly and had become more flexible, the support less firm. Couldn't find replacements in Miami so got on the internet, placed and order, prayed I had the correct size, received them pronto and now I am happy again. Only on request and if well compensated I'd agree to appear on geriatric television to extoll the benefits and praise the therapeutic effects of my Keens. I am a believer. On two occasions I have run into strangers who were similarly shodden in Keens, spoke briefly with those persons who also were happy with them. Not exactly a cult type experience, but Good Job Mr. Keen

Everyday use. But a change in the Manufacturing process that reduced the width and lenght in the same size that causes rubbing and blistering. I've been a customer since they began making these sandals. This is my chat with a KEEN Rep. You — Please update your info Randy May 31, 08:10 PDT I've been buying the newport since they were first released. I've had probably have had close to 10 pair as I wear them almost year around. I just ended up replacing a pair that were 10 yr old or older and came to find out the new pair are narrower and shorter in the same size. I'm wondering why keen decided to switch the dimensions of the footbed and sole? These used to be great for people with a wider foot. The length is a half inch shorter and the width is a least a quarter inch narrower. Chat started Customer Service Thanks for your message! We will attend to you in just a moment. In the meantime, feel free to sign in below so we know who we're chatting with! Amelia joined the chat Amelia Hello! I am familiar with what you are talking about. Due to a change in manufacturing companies within the past 3 years, which has reflected in sizing differences From what I know, this wasn't an intentional change, the Newport is just being produced differently. You — Please update your info are they going to continue with this type of production dimension or go back to the original Amelia There are no plans for future manufacturing changes as of right now. So this will remain You — Please update your info so are all the new port sandals the same width? I 2 pair of brand new 14 that are to narrow. will moving up a size alleviate the pinching or squeezing? ?? Can you answer this question
