Keen sandals

[GLC1968]

My DH just bought these last night. I tried on the women's version, but there were just too narrow. I'm sure they'd be ok on the bike, but walking wouldn't be comfy for me.

The REI guy suggested I try the men's version on, but they didn't have my size. I can't find it online anywhere, but he said they used to have it (sold out). Anyone seen the men's in a 37 or 37.5 anywhere? If you do, I'll pay you to buy and ship them to me.

I'm pretty sure I'd get a lot of use out of these if I could just get a pair that would fit!

So I am not the only one with the REI dividend burning a hole in my pocket (wallet). I ordered a pair this week. I wear Keen Isabella sandals all summer long and have two pairs. LOVE them. I am worried about the sizing of the commuter sandals but will post here after I receive them later this week and let you know how they feel. I plan to wear them on long days of cycling.

Last year when I rode the Southern Tier, many of the women were wearing sandals and all loved them. So, we shall see. I want to use them alot before May when I leave to ride the Underground RR route with a group of riders from WomanTours.

Glad to find this post.

I'm looking forward to a report. It's a bit of a drive to REI for me and I am not buying without trying on. If anything rubs my foot I can't abide it.

Did a 20 miler yesterday with a hill at the end. The first part started out flat and the Keens felt fine. I could feel them flex a bit in the arch as I was climbing the hill, though. It felt like there was something in the shoe that kept the front part - toe to about the front third of my arch - really stiff, but it seems to end there.

I still really like them but I think I'll just keep using them for shorter casual rides and bike errands.
