KEENClearwater Cnx Leather mens Sandal

Lätta och sköna

I bought these for a trip to east Asia and my partner also bought the womens version and were very happy with them.They kept our feet cool while exploring the citys, handled and wet conditions very well while also providing stability and durability for hiking. They don't feel like you are wearing a sandal and we didn't have any problems of small stones or anything going under your foot like you would with regular sandals being the perfect balance of ventilation and protection for your feet.The grip on the sandals were also perfect in sometimes steep muddy conditions and we were fine when some in trainers struggled. They are very comfortable and feel like you are wearing regular walking shoes after a while.We did start to develop slight tenderness/ early stages of a blister on the soles of our feet after a couple days wearing for the first time after a few miles daily walking but I find this is always been the case when wearing new flipflops or sandals. These went away the next day then we had long hike without any issues at all, so I recommend wearing them for a few days before you do any long walks for your feet and soles to adjust, then give your feet a break then they will be perfect.I did consider the heavier duty version of these sandals which might be more suitable for those constantly hiking or in poor terrain but I found these the perfect balance to be able to wear day to day hiking, urban areas and travelling. One thing I would say is they are not ideal for walking on loose sand as it tends to collect in the front. This is definitely not a deal breaker but this was the only situation I had to take them off to empty them which I think says a lot.

Great sandals. I am replacing my 20 yo pair of Keens Newport after 20 years of constant summer wear. The problem with the CNX is that the lace up clip keeps slipping. It will not lock in place. I solved the problem by threading a standard pair of shoe laces through the loops and tying them off for a tight fit.

Ya soy las terceras sandalias que compro y estoy satisfecho con la marca. Son algo caras, pero de buena calidad y, por mi experiencia, prefiero comprar unas buenas que me duren años a unas malas que tengo que cambiar cada año.

Good quality, but my heal comes too far back, partly outside the sole. Since this sandal doesn't have an adjustable back strap, this can't be compensated for and it just won't work for me, and, I would guess, many others.
