This is my second pair of Keen Willows.  I also have purple so I already knew how comfortable they are.  I ordered a pair for my daughter in green and liked the color so much, I ordered another pair for myself.  I have a wide foot but that is not an issue with these sandals.  They are very very comfortable and there was no 'break-in period'. I do a lot of walking in them and they've held up great. Overall, both my daughter and I have had very positive experiences with our various Keen sandals.
