KEEN Newport Sandal - Women's

Available Colors / Styles

Oil Green / Mimosa

Flag This Close

Mixing normal sandals and boats tends to result in broken, bleeding toes and furious boat owners. Keen developed the Newport Sandals in the sailing Mecca that is Rhode Island to solve these problems while retaining the comfort of sandals. A patent-pending toe guard protects your toes from deck rigging or rocks on shore. The Newport's soles are made from a grippy, non-marking rubber that prevents you from slipping and falling overboard or from being thrown overboard by black-mark-addled boat owners. The Newport's waterproof leather upper and anatomical last make it comfortable enough for extended wear on long bluewater voyages or just walking around town.

Bottom Line: The Keen Newport sandals offer the comfort of sandals with the toe protection of a shoe.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

Yes, the Newport and Newport H2 has arch support and even supports your Metatarsal arch, which supports the front of your foot.

The arch support is medium height in the Newport, (not as high as a Dansko)

Keen Newport so comfortable

By:
March 17, 2012

I love my new Keen Newport shoes!! I ordered a full size up and they are perfect. I wore them all day today. I had read they were not as comfortable as the H2 pair but I think they feel great. My son outgrew a H2 pair and I actually wear his pair all the time - but wanted my own because his are not really my size (too big).

Great All'rounders

By:
August 11, 2008

I bought these for my wife and she absolutely loves them. They've been great in the water, on trails, in the sandbox, at the park and just kickin around the house. She did notice that the stitching on the strap around the ankle rubbed a little funny but after a few wearings she was happier than before we were married!:)

The first day I wore these they were very uncomfortable so I was scared that I was going to have to return them. The more that I wore them the more awesome they are. I am a nurse and am on my feet A LOT, and my feet sweat a great deal. These shoes are absolutely fabulous. When I change my shoes at the end of my shift my legs ache but they never ache when I am wearing them. I highly recommend them to anyone in the nursing field. Give them a couple days and you will never buy another shoe!!!!

Bought for summertime hiking and all-day wear

By:
July 15, 2009

I wanted a pair of shoes that would be Everything and do Everything this summer. I wanted something to wear with both jeans and shorts, something that I could wear all-day long around town, yet could go hiking on weekends.

I found The Perfect Shoe: Keen sandals. I've had mine for about 6 weeks now and I wear them almost every day. They work fashion-wise with jeans, khakis, and shorts. They are comfortable for daily wear. And best of all, I can go hiking. So far I've gone hiking several times, most recently on a 5 mile hike. They performed as well as my $300 hiking boots, except for the rocks that sneak in through the sides.

Pros : very comfortable, adjustable, rugged, good traction on slippery trails, washable

Cons: they don't dry quickly, so I don't get them wet unless I'm at the end of a hike

Would I buy again or recommend? Absolutely! In fact, several people have stopped me to ask how I like them. I rave about them and tell people they're well worth the cost.

I am going on holiday in October to Kuala Lumpa then Cambodia

I am going on holiday in October to Kuala Lumpa then Cambodia and I want a walking sandal that i can wear for the 3 weeks. I don't want to wear socks and the weather will be humid and at the end of the rainy season so I will be getting wet feet. I want a sandal that will be comfortable, dry quickly and not leave me with sticky, sweaty feet. Is the Newport sandal the one for me, if not can anyone recommend another style. Thanks

The Women's Newport sandal upper is leather. You will find it will take longer to dry than the Women's Newport H2 which it's upper is made with synthetic.
Both Newport's run small, by about a half size.
The Women's Venice H2 by KEEN is more open then the Newport H2, so this may help a little with sticky feet.
The sizing is a bit bigger than the Newport, but still a little small, so if you are a 8 to 8.5 get the 8.5.
KEEN makes another sandal that is even more open called the Hydro Guide. This comes in men sizes only, but they go down to a mens 4. Men sizes run a full size bigger than women, for example, women's 8 is a mens 7.
These are all closed toe sandals, your feet will get warm and sweaty in them, but when it's humid and hot out it's hard to keep your feet dry with out socks with any sandal.
Nice thing about the KEEN sandals, they all can be washed in a washer or by hand to help with the stink factor.

Keen Newport H2

By:
July 12, 2011

Bought mine in NY in 2007, have worn them eversince in Winter and Summer on land and in the sea with and without socks!! THE most comfortable footwear I have ever worn. Sadly the heels have become so worn that I need to get a new pair. Living in Ireland means the tax on importing here doubles the price!! Have bought a lighter version sandal and Keen enclosed shoes, my partner has Newports and shoes for men, my sons have them, I think they are that good!! Have been unable to get the Newport H2 navy in colour in my size here, anyone know of a supplier in Dublin Ireland where I can get them?
Thank you Keen!!!

Sandals run small

By:
May 27, 2011

This is the 4th pair of Keen's I have ordered and the first 3 fit perfectly...but not this sandal. I held it up sole to sole with my other shoes and this sandal is visibly shorter than the others. I am returning these for a 1/2 size bigger...unfortunately I will not be able to get the same color or style..I am going with the Venice H2. I love my other Keen's but I was disappointed that their sizing is inconsistent. I was really looking forward to wearing these.

Comfy and cool

By:

These are very comfortable, although a little heavy (maybe I should have gotten the H2). They are very sturdy an secure for walking on uneven terrain, and just as nice for sidewalks and such. Easy on and off, and my sweaty feet don't get slippery in them. You might want to order a size up from your usual.

Great until you put on an H2 sandal

By:
February 14, 2010

I bought these and returned them only because I traded them for the ladies H2. My mom bought the H2 because of size selection so I tried hers on......wow, they were much lighter and a tad more comfortable. The bony protrusion on my ankle is low, and the strap on the Newports rubbed on it, the H2's strap sits lower therfore no rubbing. Had I never tried the H2's I don't think I would have had bad comments for the Newports either...just fell in love with the other. I can't comment on the actual long term comfort, as I haven't used them yet...awaiting a cruise in 2 weeks for use. Will be doing lots of water excursions....from other comments I anticipate comfy feet the entire time!!!
I agree with many others...choose a 1/2 size larger. This was true for mine and my childrens.

So what happens when these shoes get wet? I'm totally scared

So what happens when these shoes get wet? I'm totally scared that they will stink. When I was chasing the ducks around the other day before dark - I got a big nasty glop of duck poo on my shoe. I got it off, but realized that these may be too nice for all the stuff I put them through. Can you hose them off and they'll be ok? I'm not very gentle when it comes to clothing or shoes, but I don't want to wreck my nice present from my mom.

The leather is PU injected and also treated on the exterior, therefore, you can machine wash the leather and do all the city slickin', duck chasin' and $#ž+ kickin' your little heart desires.

Comfortable, but not very breathable

By:
September 5, 2006

I loved my Keen Newports when wearing them with socks, but when I started wearing them barefoot, they made my feet sweaty and stinky. I had never had problems with stinky feet until I started wearing these. I put odor-eaters insoles in them, and that took care of the smell, but my feet still feel warm and moist whenever I wear them, especially in the toe area. Aside from holding warmth and moisture, they are very comfortable, and I love the toe protection. I just wish they were more breathable.

Keen Newport Sandals

Great sandals! I ordered a 1/2 size up after reading the reviews and recommendations and they fit perfectly (I'm a faithful 7 1/2 and I ordered an 8). They are comfortable and have been worn to the beach, out for long walks etc. NO COMPLAINTS and NO BLISTERS!!
They also look great with beach attire, casual attire, or just hanging out.
This was my first purchase from this website and boy was it easy with very speedy delivery- free delivery that is!! I will order again from this website.

I have two different sized feet. In some shoes I can wear a 9 1/2 (like Salomons), in other a 10 (like Merrells). I read the same thing you did about ordering half a size large, so I ordered a 10. They are perfect. My husband wears a 9 mens. I ordered him a 9 mens, before I read about ordering a half size larger. He said they were snug at first, but glad that I didn't order them any larger. I hope this helps.

I have fairly wide feet and usually buy 8 1/2 W. Since these don't come in a Wide version, I chose to buy size 9. They fit perfectly and are very comfortable. A regular 8 1/2 might have worked, but I chose a higher size to be on the safe side.

My own experience with my Keen sandals is that they have plenty of room in the area for your toes and such, yet still hug your ankle area. The sandals also have an adjustment cord so you can tighten or loosen the fit of the sandal. I like plenty of room for my toes and my bunion on my right foot, but I have a skinny ankle and they fit my ankle as well.

These sandals have become my favorite footwear since the moment I put them on—I even wear them to work!

Great Shoe

On the advice of my sister-in-law, I ordered the Keen sandals. I use orthotics in all of my shoes for high arches. However, when I received my Newport's I only had to add a small Dr. Sholl's insert to make the arch high enough.
No break-in period was needed and I love these sandals. Comfortable, even with hours of wear.
Thank you!

My new Newport Sandals by Keen

By:

I love my new Newport Sandals by Keen. My husband and I plan to go to Colorado in September. I travel light and wanted a pair of all-around shoes. The Newports fit the ticket! They are rugged, yet comfortable. The covered toe on a sandal really sold me on this shoe. I've been asked, “Where did you get those neat sandals?” I told my sister about them and she said they sounded like her favorite pair of sandals. Guess what? Her favorite pair are Newports by Keen too!

Great, but.....

By:
August 25, 2006

I love my Keens, but.... they tend to be a bit warm. We are a very active Scouting family, between summer camp, Philmont, soccer, football, and more, we spend the majority of the summer on the go. I love the extra foot protection they offer and the fit is great, but it does run a little small (order 1/2 size larger than your everyday shoes.) Due to the extra foot protection, I think the shoe tends to hold the heat of my foot, any sweat is allowed to evaporate, but the heat tends to stay behind. The heat is not so excessive as to make the shoes un-wearable, but occasional the dogs need to come out and cool off on a real hot day. Otherwise, I love my keens!

Best Sandals I've Ever Owned

By:
May 25, 2006

I work at a scuba diving shop, and these are the only sandals that I dont slip and slide all over the store! Also work wonderful on the boat, keeping me toes safe from stubbing!

Best shoes ever

By:
November 14, 2006

I got these Keen Newport Sandals because I needed a pair of good travel shoes that would stand up in any warm weather condition. I was not disappointed. I wore these everywhere - up the east coast of Australia in lots of wet conditions, and all over the interior of Australia in lots of dry conditions. Also all over New Zealand in temperate conditions. (And, of course, all over Western Canada in the summer). The only thing I would recommend to new owners is to wear them in a bit - not that the shoes need to be broken in, but your feet might! I got lots of blisters the first week I wore these, but only because the first moment I put them on I was wearing them for up to 10 hours of walking and hiking a day. As soon as my feet were accustomed to the shoes, I had no problems and wore them everywhere! These shoes are also very durable. I wore them for 3 months straight in all sorts of activities, and they still look like the day I got them. Highly recommend them to anyone!

I love my new Sandals !!!

By:
March 6, 2007

I was told by several of my friends how much they loved their Newport Sandals because they are so comfortable. After much convincing, I finally went out and bought a pair and was so glad I did. They truly are the most comfortable rugged sandals I have ever owned, I will never go back to those other sandals, I love my Newports !

I wanted comfortable good-looking water/camping sandal-shoes. These are perfect, and my feet don't look like nubby clubs.

Love the KEEN's

By:

These are amazingly comfortable! I would definitely purchase these again. They fit small, I am a size 5 in Columbia, Reebok, Adidas etc, and with these I needed a 6. I heard that about KEEN's and was glad I listened.

compliments

By: Backcountry.com Employee

If you want compliments on your shoes pick these. Everyone likes them. Including me. I have a narrow foot so I thought they would be too wide when I saw them in the box. There is a large toe box. But they adjust so nicely it wasn't a problem.

Keen Newport so comfortable

5 star rating

I love my new Keen Newport shoes!! I ordered a full size up and they are perfect. I wore them all day today. I had read they were not as comfortable more...
