Good fit and comfy! Very easy on the feet especially when you have a lot of walking to do. They look great too. I ordered a bigger size because I thought Keen shoes run smaller but unlike most Keen's, these sandals run true to size.

Very comfy & cute too! A very comfortable shoe--even took a 20 minute little hike in them. I ordered up 1/2 size as suggested, but seems to be too long--will try my normal size. (The same for my mom who tried them on and wears the same size as I do.) I look forward to trying a better size and to trying out other Keens--this is my 1st pair. I love all of the things I have read/heard a/b them. I have 3 small children & a creek by the house. I love that I'll be able to step into the creek at a moment's notice to "rescue" one of them! They do make my feet sweat though. Altrec was great with the shipping--I got them right away!

Comfort and support all the way! I purchased these shoes after searching for what I believed would be a comfortable shoe for walking, and one that would go with skirts or pants. The moment I tried them on I knew they were comfortable but the real test was a full day of serious walking on a trip to New York City, where I was literally on my feet all day. I hadn't had them long enough to break them in but that wasn't even necessary. I liked them so much that I bought a pair in another color and since I was traveling with 3 of my sisters and we all wear the same size, we were all fighting over who could wear these shoes for our very active days. So we shared and someone always had a pair of these Keen Carmel on. Nobody wanted to take a chance on tired feet or blisters. I'm happy to say that the shoes were great for all of us. I had brought along a few other pairs of shoes but the others got very little wear after we tried these out.

Very good sandal. I really like these sandals. They look cute and they're very supportive. I like how they cover my toes so that I can wear them to work.

the perfect sandal. I loved this shoe because it feels like an athletic sandal, but can be worn in more dressy situations, such as work, etc. They are comfortable and stylish at the same time. I found the size 10 to conform nicely with my other size 10 shoes.

Women's Carmel Sandals - They're Great!! I am ordered by my podiatrist to wear only Keen shoes because of my foot problems. I still like to maintain style, and these carmel sandals fit both comfort and style. They are great!

Love these shoes! After reading the reviews, I thought I would size up half a size...didn't work for my feet. Lucky for me, they received a pair in my true size. Fits great, except the toe area is a tad wide(most keens are for me). I just purchase a pair of inserts for the foot bed, and they fit perfectly! The other reviews are right on when they say no break in time needed. These with stood hours on my feet right out of the box, true comfort!

Very comfortable and stylish shoes I bought those shoes to wear them with my skirts, and believe me they look great with the skirts. They are light so you can take them on every trip, and have some nice shoes for evenings.

Love this shoe! This is an awesome shoe, very cute, very comfortable. True to size, maybe even a teeny big big, but I am happy in my regular size 9.5. Looks good with skirts and pants, the rich tea color is beautiful. Great for walking, no break-in needed. I want the black too!

Very comfortable sandals with cushiony soles... Surprisingly, I had to order a half-size smaller than normal, but they fit perfectly. The leather is very soft -- no chafing, no blistering -- and the sole is great. I've also received a number of compliments on the design, which confirm that these look good even on large-ish feet.

GOOD LOOKING AND GOOD FEELING I really like these shoes. I can wear them to work and feel comfortable but look professional. They do make my feet sweat but luckily they're Keens< yeah! Thankfully I went to a local store and tried them on in a color I didn't want to find out they run a size too big.

Adorable & Versatile I got these in both the black and brown. They are the perfect combination of sandal & closed toe, dressy & casual, cute & comfy. I wear them with pants, skirts, everything! I tried both my regular size and 1/2 size bigger, and ended up going with my regular size. Love them!

Comfy spring and summer shoe This is a comfortable shoe, almost like a sandal. Being a Midwesterner I have to put this pair away until next spring as I don't like the way it looks with socks. I look forward to wearing them when the weather warms up because they are more substantial than sandals or flip flops.
