KEEN Women's Astoria West Closed Toe Sandals

My first pair of Keens, and I'm so happy I bought them. Sandal and tennis show mixed. Who would have thought?! They are very comfortable. I can walk in them all day long. Use them on the beach, in the river where it's rocky (very nice to have these), and walking in the woods. Keep my ankles supported, nice arch support and feet stay cool on hotter days.

Having worn only KEEN sandals for years, Whispers the last two, I'm liking these as well, but hoping the soles stay attached! One of a pair of Whispers did come apart on me about two years ago because of the way I was removing by stepping on the heel edge, and I fixed that with strong glue that did the trick. The latest Whispers have stayed intact. Wow - so many critical reviews here are stating pairs of these soon fell apart after minimal wearing - usually I read the one-stars before buying - but uh oh - this buy I didn't, and now I must just wait and see, hoping for the best! Today, these sandals are very comfortably fitting me fine, appear to function as hoped, and I do like the colors and design a lot. As is, right out of the box, the fit on both feet has felt fine without any adjusting. If these last at least a year, I'll consider this purchase a great value, especially because there was a big discount the day I ordered.

I just got and put on my Astoria West closed toe sandal from Keen color desert sage/multi. They look great! Cute! Not clunky at all. What impressed me the most is the cushion these shoes provide. Take it from me, someone who has been living in only Oofos for the past 2 years because of needing the squishy cloud like feel to relieve foot pain. I can't believe how comfortable the souls of these shoes are. It's really hard to find a squishy soft soled shoe with significant thickness. The top and sides of this shoe are comfortable also. No toes are sticking out. Due to several reviews I decided to buy these in a size 8. I normally wear a 7 or 7 1/2 in shoes but, I do wear a size 8 in sneakers. This size 8 Astoria fits nicely so I recommend using your sneaker size. Because of their cloud like squishiness they conform to your feet and arch. I do feel that if you have a very high arch and/or a chunky foot these would probably be tight on you. My feet are thin and my arch is low. My review may be premature being that I haven't worn them outside yet but, what's making me feel so good about them is the cushion in the heel and the ball of my foot. I have so much foot pain that if I didn't feel this cushion I would actually be afraid to go outside in these because of knowing I'd end up in pain but, I'm not afraid at all to go outside in these and I'm looking forward to it! I have an old pair of keen closed toe sports sandal (size 7 1/2) that I've been really needing to replace but I haven't found any that were comfortable. I am so glad I went ahead and ordered these online!So far so wonderful!! I don't want to take them off.

Quality was great, and they were mostly very comfortable, however, I have slightly wide feet and I could see my feet spilling over the sides of the shoe. They were also very tight on the sides and left indentations after only wearing them for a couple minutes. My feet are not super wide, so if you have wide feet at all, these are probably not the shoes for you.

Keen Astoria West SandalLove them so far! Super comfortable, very lightweight, and cute. Got the scarlet ibis or whatever it is, a nice red. They may not be the best choice for rough trails, but for all my city walking, casual wear, easy hiking, beach walks, I think they'll be perfect. And they're cute enough to wear with a skirt or casual dress. We'll have to see how the white soles look over time.About Sizing: I wear an 8.5 M in all my other Keens but had heard these were smaller, so I first ordered a size 9. They were way too big for me. Replaced with my usual size, perfect. BUT I recently tried on some Keen Uneek and Uneek Astoria sandals at the Keen store, and in those I definitely needed to size up. For the Uneek Astoria, I needed a size 9. For th regular Uneek sandal, I was undecided between the 9 and the 9.5. I my experience the Uneek Astoria and these Astoria West sandals are sized differently and you can probably wear your usual size in these.Hope this helps. Great shoes!

Review update: Just a quick update to my previous review as many people have found it helpful. I usually wear my Keen Astoria West shoes when traveling a few times a year so they are still going strong. In April 2024, I put them to the test once again! I hiked up a gravel path to a volcano in the Mediterranean. The path was fairly steep. The Keens were great! Had to empty my shoes a couple of times as dust and grit got in (inevitably - there are holes in the sides of the shoes), but this only took a few seconds as the shoes slip on/off so quickly. I also jumped off a boat into the very cold Aegean sea, wearing these shoes. I tightened them up, as when cold, hands and feet shrink a little. I was swimming in the ocean about 10 metres in depths towards the shore - the shoes stayed on my feet and protected me from rocks as I neared the beach. I was then swimming into thermal volcanic waters, with high sulphur content which turns the water brown along with any white fabrics, I'm happy to report the Keens were not impacted by this - they stayed their original colour. After getting out of the sea I walked around a port (which was flat concrete) and my shoes dried out nicely and maintained their grip. I certainly put these shoes through a bunch of challenges, and I'm delighted to see how well the Keens handled it! Two years later, I still highly recommend.2022 review:I purchased these shoes for a trip to Asia where I would be doing lots of walking and and ideally needed something more substantial, supportive and 'trainer-like' than my hiking sandals. I also needed something that would also be very breathable in a hot and humid climate. These Keen Astoria West shoes, with their opened sided design, were perfect!Having researched the brand, I found out Keen has a good reputation for adventure shoes, sandals, hiking boots. I choose the Astorias as they are lightweight, and have a nice feminine design with a slight heel elevation, and are waterproof. Also they come in a great range of colours and look pretty stylish for this type of shoe.After my trip, I can confirm these Astorias are great! I ​wore them all day on flat and hilly gravel trails, through forests and on the beach. The hybrid design is like hiking sandals and trainers had a baby! The moment I put them on they were comfortable. The stretchy and soft scuba-like fabric on the inside of the shoe ensures there is nothing to rub. I saw another reviewer said they kind of feel like wearing a combination of a shoe and sock - which I'd say is a good, accurate description!The fit is easily adjustable with the innovative elastic lacing structure - which makes them super fast to slip on and off. This is also great if your feet tend to swell up or shrink down in changing temperatures as you can quickly adjust fit on the move. The overall fit is true to size, however if you are between sizes or not sure, I'd say go up half a size to be safe.The shoes are very lightweight, reducing aching legs and ensuring they don't add to much to luggage weight limits when flying. I confirm they are waterproof having worn them in the sea and through streams. They dried well and I also understand they can go in the washing machine (haven't tried this yet, but I'm confident they will be fine).Finally, the rubber sole and toe cap is great for grip and protecting the toes - which is so needed on rugged trails! However, one point I should add is that if you are looking to do some proper, steep, technical hiking you will still need to invest in some proper hiking boots with ankle support - these Astorias are not a substitute for that (however they will make a useful edition to your adventure shoe collection)! I'd say they are great for long days on your feet, walking in the summer or in hot climates on moderate terrain.I hope you find this review helpful, I certainly love these shoes and will be looking to purchase more Keen footwear in the future.
