FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for hiking?
Yes, the KEEN NEWPORT H2 sandals offer good traction and protection, making them suitable for light to moderate hiking, especially on trails involving water crossings.
How do I clean my KEEN NEWPORT H2 sandals?
You can wash them by hand with mild soap and cold water. Rinse well and let them air dry completely away from direct heat.
Can I replace the footbed?
The footbed in the KEEN NEWPORT H2 is non-removable. If you require custom orthotics, these sandals may not be suitable.
What does 'PFC-free, durable water repellent' mean?
This means the sandal has a water-repellent treatment that does not contain perfluorinated chemicals, which are considered harmful. It helps water bead off the material.
How does the lace-lock bungee system work?
The bungee cord with a toggle allows you to quickly tighten or loosen the sandal for a secure fit. Simply pull the laces to tighten and release the toggle to loosen.
Will these sandals help prevent odor?
Yes, the KEEN NEWPORT H2 incorporates natural technology in the footbed designed to inhibit odor-causing bacteria, helping to keep your feet fresh.
Are these sandals good for very hot weather?
The open design and quick-drying materials make them suitable for hot weather, but for prolonged extreme heat with minimal airflow, consider breathability factors.
Troubleshooting
Slipping sensation or poor fit
Adjust the lace-lock bungee system to ensure a secure and snug fit. Ensure the webbing is properly seated on your foot.
Sand or debris inside the sandal
Remove the sandal and rinse thoroughly with water. Shake out any trapped debris. Allow to air dry.
Discomfort during initial wear
The polyester webbing may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.
Soles leaving marks indoors
While designed to be non-marking, always test on an inconspicuous area of delicate flooring if concerned. Ensure soles are clean of abrasive dirt.
