Ridiculous sizingAs I always do before purchasing any product, I read the reviews and saw that multiple people commented on the fact that these shoes run small. All of the other shoes that I own are size 10.5, so when I ordered these, I ordered size 11.5. The shoes are so ridiculously small, that I could barely fit my feet into them, and when I finally did get my feet in, the shoes squeezed ever portion of my foot. What is wrong with this company that they seem to have different shoe sizing than every other shoe manufacturer in the world. I could maybe understand if they were half a size smaller. Even one size larger seems crazy to me, but having to purchase shoes that are 1.5 to 2 times larger than my normal shoe size indicates that Keen has got a sizing problem.
I can't even comment on any other aspect of these shoes because I cannot wear them and I am returning them.

Good But Two IssuesI've got a similar Keen sandal from a year ago. I love it. These are different:
Issue #1: Size
I wear a size 9. So I ordered a size 9 online. It's not a size 9, despite the label. It's a size 8. I went to the nearby—100 miles away—and got a size 10. They fit. But it takes an effort to get them on. A half-size larger would be too large in length. I'd be tripping on stairs.Stumbling over the over long shoe. And this big old house has LOTS of stairs.
Issue #2: The Back Pull On Loop
On my other pair, the loop is oriented so that the thumb can be inserted, i.e., opening from the top, not the side.
The thumb is stronger than the index finger.
These side-opening loops do not accommodate the thumb being used to pull the sandal on.
Keen should ALWAYS put a back pull-on loop on their sandals that accommodates using the thumb.

AwesomeFantastic. Chewed up miles of trails in Hawaii through mud, bamboo, rocks, streams, tree roots, etc. And at the end of the day all I had to do was hose them out and they were good as new. Great support and I never had a blister or hot spot, even during break in, They’re now my go-to summer shoe in New Mexico.

Great Sandals but grossly undersizedI have always worn a size 10.5 consistent with my first pair of Keens which were Arroyos II's but I needed a size 11.5 for the H2 sandals. These are fantastic sandals but caveat emptor when ordering by mail. Fortuneately a store is accessible to me for sizing but order at least a half-size larger for starters.
