I saw everyone wearing these all over Asia last year. A very unique design. They are difficult to get on at first, and not quite as comfy as I was expecting, I’ve not warn them much as yet, mainly due to the British summer. They seem to be getting better the more I wear them. I’m not sure how they would fare in rough conditions? On the beach etc? They’re too nice to try out at the minute, I may be wrong? They’re expensive at sale price, and way too expensive at full price, but I guess that’s Portland for you?

5 REASONS FOR 5 STARS

1. AIR FLOW IS SUPURB2. COMFORTABLE FOR MOST ACTIVE OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES UNLIKE FLIP FLOPS OR OPEN SANDALS THAT LEAVE MUCH OF THE FOOT UNSUPPORTED AND EXPOSED)3. ELASTIC BUNGEE LIKE MATERIAL AS LACES ALLOW YOU TO WEAR WITH SOCKS OR BAREFOOT AND ADJUST AS YOU NEED EASILY.4. SOLES HAVE WELL DESIGNED GRIP FOR MOST SURFACES.5. MY NEW FAVORITE HOUSE SLIPPERS (IF YOU ARE LIKE ME AND WEAR BOOTS THE WHOLE WEEK, IT'S IMPORTANT TO AIR OUT. THE UNEEK ALL ABOUT AIRLFOW AND COMFORT, WITH A PAIR OF THICK WOOL SOCKS YOU ARE SET IN WINTER AND JUST GO BAREFOOT WHEN THE TEMPS RISE. THEY ARE SO VERSATILE, WELL DONE TEAM KEEN!If the Keen Design Team is reading this they should mix the DNA of the Howser Slipper with the Uneek I think it would be a homerun.

A Love Story...

Lee told me to be careful. We were 2 miles offshore preparing for a race on his J 46. I was determined to be a valuable crewmember. After coming about, I looked on the cabin top and my keen sandals were gone! I knew they would float, looked astern, marked where they might come ashore, and focused on how to earn my passage. After the race I scoured the beach and rocks and miraculously found the right sandal! Everyone was in shock, but said, well that's another "David story". The next day I told my wife that if i had found one, why wouldn't i find the other? After searching through rocks and up and down the beach, I saw my yoga teacher walking on the beach towards me. She asked what I was looking for? I told her the story of losing one sandal and looking for the ... MoreLee told me to be careful. We were 2 miles offshore preparing for a race on his J 46.

She asked what I was looking for? I told her the story of losing one sandal and looking for the other. She said "was it black soled with kind of webbing on top?" I was excited and said "yes!". She said, "I saw it on the beach yesterday and put it up on the wall over there". I ran over and there it was! I was so excited...Many people have asked me "what kind of shoes are those?" I tell them and often share just how special these sandals really are. The most amazing part of the story is that the sandals came ashore right where we have been blessed to rent in la Cruz for the last 4 years. It's not often that you know where you are supposed to be, but we are keenly aware we are blessed to be here! (I am now on my 6th pair but wish I could still buy my favorite color)

Best Sandals EVER

Hands down, comfiest sandal I've ever owned in my life. Fit me perfectly right out of the box. Have already received so many compliments on them from friends and people seeing me out. I bought the black/black monochrome and when I wear black socks with them, they look even sleeker and cooler. I love that they're so lightweight and even after I got them a little wet from walking around by the river, they dried super fast! These truly are so UNEEK. I was unsure if this would fit me or not based on how unusual they look at first, but they're just so fun and I fear I'll never be able to wear another pair of sandals again after this. I'll definitely be buying more in other colors.

Best multi use shoes ever!

Just got my second pair. First pair are about 8 years old and in good condition but I wear them so much I felt I needed a back up. They have taken me all over the world. Great as everyday summer sandals, and also great and comfortable as walking shoes. My new pair are just the same as the old ones. Sturdy, comfortable, well made. I would highly recommend.

Definitely Uneek!

After owning a pair of Uneek Keen Sandals that I purchased about 4-5 years ago. I couldn't help but wonder, what would happen if these Uneek Keen sandals weren't wearable anymore? Would I be able to find a new pair to replace my old pair? Would they be the same great fit, the same excellent craftsmanship (Robotic), the same Uneek style, the same overall great sandals/shoes? My questions were answered today, as I received the TWO new pair that ordered, today. Not even 8 hours after receiving them today, I received many compliments, as I did when I purchased my first pair at our local Mall. I've dealt with severe chronic neck & back pain for over 20 years & these Uneek Keen Sandals are by far one of the better shoes/sandals that I've ever worn.

They are light, yet feel strong/sturdy, & the fit is excellent. Keep up the great work & creative designs, can't wait to see what comes next in Uneek Keen Sandals! Innovation at work, at its finest. And NO, this was & is NOTba paid review. My review is based in actual Facts & I was not paid in any way, shape or form for my review. Try a pair & you'll see what I'm talking about. Thanks again Keen/Uneek! Love my Uneek Keen Sandals.✌️ P.S., I'd love to see if you could incorporate, or invent a different type of insole for people with back issues. Sketchers has worked on insoles for a while now & they do feel good but it could be improved by adding a bit more resistance in the insoles material, so it's not so soft but has a thicker padding feel. Something to think about. People with back issues, love sandals too. ✌️👍👍

Good Color for Summer

I have really pale legs, so a lighter color shoe is my preference as I wear short pants a lot. I knew to get a full size larger than my regular shoe, and the width fit is relatively adjustable with the lace-up cording provided, you just have to play with it a bit. It's winter now, so I'm only wearing these inside at this time, but I know (from having had a pair of UNEEKs before - the sole split, so gotta get these new ones) that I will be so grateful for them when summer finally comes around. They were my favorite summer shoe, so I'm expecting no less this time around. They feel very secure on my feet when I'm walking, even on pebbly paths, and I love the way they look. Get them!

NOT A WATER SHOE

I bought these with the intent to use them as a water shoe. The reason is because this show is listed in the water shoe section. When I got them I loved them!!! Amazing fit and comfort! But looking further it NOT a water shoe. It’s water reflective or resistant….so I had to return them. Why would Keen advertise this show in the water shoe section when it’s really not a water shoe. Very disappointed at Keen because of this. And bear in mind I am a Keen shoe fanatic….its the only brand of show I’ll wear…work and casual because of such great comfort

No shoe in

I really liked my previous Keen shoe, especially the open weave rope type of construction but that style is no longer available. It had a traditional closed heel. This style is just like it except for the heel which is a strap. I could not put these on without great difficulty, having to manage how far my foot pushed forward into the toe area before there was sufficient slack at the back to pull the strap over my heel. I had to use a traditional shoe horn and even that was difficult. Finally, after about one hundred wearings, the heel strap finally comes up around the heel with moderate effort using one finger as a shoe horn. Otherwise the shoe breathes well and is very comfortable but I would not recommend it because of the difficulty putting it on.

UNEED UNEEK

These immediately caught my eye on the website, and look even better in person. I love style nod to a classic huarache sandal. These take it further with unbridled comfort. The two cord system keeps these snug where they need to be without rubbing or cutting into the skin. They are a versatile part of my everyday wardrobe and look great with pants, socks, shorts, you name it. These will certainly not be my last pair of UNEEKs.
