keen newport H2
nice sandals. been wearing them for for a week or so, up on the blue ridge parkway and such. the pluses are that they are very comfortable and no chaffing or rubbing. very good traction. my wife has had a pair for over a month and loves them. she is very fussy about shoes, and now wants me to buy her 2 more pair in differing colors. note: she does not like many shoes either. she has been able to hike in places where she would not have been able to go without them. the minuses are that they are a bit pricey. but, what is the price of a good, comfortable shoe that does not blister and chaff you? you will also read about pieces giving way and such. but they seem to be holding together rather nicely despite some rather aggressive use and abuse. i like mine and will buy another pair, and 2 for my wife.
