The Bedrock Cairn 3D PRO II Adventure is a unique pair of sandals that fall somewhere in between a minimalist and a full adventure sandal, offering benefits of both. With nearly flat soles, the 3d PRO II version of these sandals has just enough added bumps, ridges, and crests in all the right spots to keep our feet firmly on the soles, regardless of incline or moisture levels. Minimalist straps are easily adjustable and more secure than they may appear. Though they look simple, these sandals offer top notch traction and well above average stability.
Though their lack of straps penning in the outsides of your feet allows the Cairn 3D PRO II to accommodate much wider feet than many sandals, we still struggled with the sizing of these unisex shoes. Our lead tester typically wears a 7.5 in women's shoes and ultimately found that she needed a size 9 to be able to keep her whole foot on the Cairn 3D. The strap attached between the toes is far enough forward that even average length toes hung off the end of smaller sandals. And while finding the right size and adjusting for the most secure fit makes these Bedrocks very rugged, they can't quite match the stability and security of cross-toe and cross-foot straps found in many other models. Still, if you're after a minimally designed sandal that still provides support and protection, the Cairn 3D PRO II is a superb choice.

I bought these while visiting my daughter (who wears them) and I haven’t taken them off in 2 weeks! I’m 55 so comfort on my feet is a must and other than my good tennis shoes these shoes NEVER hurt when I’m wearing them or after a full day of walking around in them. I have wide feet and they are perfect! No breaking in needed! Definitely will purchase more! Highly recommend

Best Sandals EVER!

They're at least as secure as anything else I've worn, while still more comfortable and highly functional. 

All good on this skinny giant!

I live and work in Papua New Guinea, and not only is the climate horrible for adhesives, but also the terrain can be very challenging. I have been wearing these daily for over 6 months straight. I have worn these in jungle swamps, on muddy trails, along felled-tree bridges, rocky water crossings, steep hill climbs, and for lots of walking in town. They are holding up very well and generally provide lots of grip

Admittedly, some of our testers are not particularly fond of closed-toe models. However, we all agree that the Keen Newport H2 is a worthy competitor in the performance sandal category. It's tuned up to be water-savvy with durable rubber outsoles and a hydrophobic EVA-foam footbed, though we also find the Newport to be grippy and versatile in most dryland activities as well. The molded insole is comfortable and supportive while maintaining a relatively lightweight feel. The Newport's webbing structure is padded with neoprene backing and is very comfortable and quick to dissipate moisture. It also offers adequate protection from stubbed toes on submerged river rocks and the trail as a closed model. 
One drawback of a closed-toe sandal is that it's easier for pebbles and sand to get stuck inside the shoe if you're hiking through a rocky stream bed or at the beach. We found that this is a minor inconvenience for the high-end wet-condition performance of the Newport H2. While it is ideal for watersports and our top choice for a closed-toe sandal, it also keeps up with some of the burlier models in our lineup regarding traction and stability. We give this model a seal of approval for trail use and watersports. This footwear style isn't most folks' first pick for wearing around town, but it certainly gets the job done in the outdoors. 

Switchback Travel

If your ideal summer adventure involves being out on the water all day or hiking through brush and stream crossings, a closed-toe design like KEEN’s Newport H2 makes a lot of sense. In contrast to the open-toe models above, the Newport sports a generous rubber toe cap that covers the front and top of the forefoot to guard against direct hits from rocks and roots. In addition, the polyester webbing upper and quick-dry lining don’t grow heavy when soaked, and the bungee laces make it easy and quick to snug things down with a single pull. Finally, as we’ve come to expect from KEEN, the Newport H2 is comfortable enough to wear all day thanks to its well-cushioned build and good arch support.

What are the downsides? First, the Newport H2 runs notably small, and it’s best to try them on before buying (or purchase from a retailer with a good return policy). Further, despite the use of KEEN’s Anti-Odor technology, we’ve found the Newport tends to hold onto a stink, especially if worn frequently during the hot summer months (they are machine-washable, which helps). Finally, some users have reported premature durability issues with the sole and stitching in particular, although we’ve had pairs last multiple years without issue. In the end, the Newports aren’t for everyone and lack the everyday appeal of many of the open-toe options. But for uses like fly fishing, kayaking, walking along rocky shorelines, or even riding your bike around town (the toe coverage is a big draw), it’s a winning recipe. For a slightly cheaper and lower-profile option from KEEN, check out their Clearwater CNX sandals.See the Men's KEEN Newport H2  See the Women's KEEN Newport H2

 My typical day touring is morning to night and upwards of 10 miles a day. I have flat feet and need all the support I can get in a shoe. 

For wetter more rugged use and best all day walking comfort, low top hiking shoes are my choice. Not for clubbing and dancing I'm afraid, but that's not my style anyway. My typical day touring is morning to night and upwards of 10 miles a day. I have flat feet and need all the support I can get in a shoe

Bottom line: if I can't walk all day in a pair of travel shoes, they are worthless to me. Fashion is farther down the list.

Bringing too many pairs is just too much hassle:/

<div class="md"><p>Bringing too many pairs is just too much hassle:/</p>

If you were to wear only one or two pairs of shoes for all your trips, which pair would it be and why?

 The good thing is is that these these are washable, so it says cold, water, wash separately general cycle and air dry. So I'm able to you know after I wear these a lot and they start to sink it's not to sink, but to stink, I'll, be able to wash them and that's a good thing. The build quality I find to be very nice. These seem as if they should last a long time and for my intended use, Oh a non-marking, sole

04 miles no blisters at all, that's something I was worried about. You know any time, I'm not wearing socks with a shoe no blisters and the support that these provide is phenomenal. So you know again, it's not a shoe, but it's not a sandal but see it's got a lot of things going for it. So, for example, this toe right here haven't stumped my toe and anything that hurt, because that's very hard, it's very hard rubber

 So you know again, it's not a shoe, but it's not a sandal but see it's got a lot of things going for it. So, for example, this toe right here haven't stumped my toe and anything that hurt, because that's very hard, it's very hard rubber. The sides are vented now these do wear kind of hot, even though they're vented, you know, don't expect it to be like a flip-flop where it's really cool, but they do wear a rule a little bit warm. I will you know will say that as far as the odor no odor yet, but you know that's something that I expect after I wear them a lot more is you know, they'll probably start to stink

 It does say something in the soul and I don't know how well you can see it in the video this video isn't 4k by the way. So if you have a compatible display crank it up, but it says anti-odor, so there's souls and anti-odor material, so we'll see how that holds up, but again after 2.0 for miles hiking. In these up a lot of terrain, I mean I've

Keen Newport H2 Review

I don't write many product reviews, but I thought I'd chip in my two cents to help the next guy. I loved these sandals for their comfort and fit. I wore them on a couple of backpacking trips with 40 lbs on my back tromping through streams along the way, and I never had the slightest hint of a blister on my feet. My review of three stars is four three reasons: First of all, they only lasted about 18 months

 They are cheaply glued together and will start the clock to fall apart the moment you put them on your feet.

 Keen has an 12 month warranty, so don't expect them to outlast that by much (my day-to-day use was more sitting in a cubicle than backpacking through wet terrain). Second, they are heavy. These weigh a multiple of your standard flip-flop sandals and probably more than your tennis shoes. Third, and this is probably more me than the shoe, they tend to get very stinky

Great for comfort, but not durable

I’m now experimenting with Teva Universal Urban sandals that are a bit lighter and pack much flatter. 

 It’s under a kilo and as useful for urban travel as well as wilderness day hiking. I want water bottle pockets, sternum strap and compression straps and it has them all plus a great 3/4 clamshell opening and proportions that will work for carry on everywhere I’ve looked. It may even fit under seats. It will hold a couple medium compression cubes and a small folder with room left over for a toiletries bag and I can stash my sandals in the side pockets if needed

Hey all,

I'm new to onebag, and I'm pretty excited about the prospect of getting back abroad after the pandemic eases up. Thankfully I'm already vaccinated, so I'm looking to travel sometime this year hopefully.

[This is my onebag packing list](https://lighterpack.com/r/mepiwi), let me know what you think of it and if there are any glaring problems. This list is for cold or warm weather, anything barring true extremes, and mostly urban-based travel. I'm still working on a different packing list for hiking-focused trips. 

I say that it's good for up to 4 weeks, mainly because I think that's how long my consumable items would last (medications, laundry detergent, moisturizer, face masks, etc) before I'd have to find local replacements. But otherwise it's good for long-term. I guess I'd want to bring my laptop for anything longer than a month.

I sweat a lot, so anti-odor fabrics are crucial for me. I love merino but the price is insane, never thought I'd have to save up for weeks to buy a t-shirt. Are there cheaper anti-odor shirts in other materials that I should know about? Is the Pata Capilene any good?

(Related note: any recommendations for travel rewards cards? I'm based on the US east coast and I'm mainly interested in travel to Europe and Asia. I'm also a poor dental student in debt up to my ears.)

 All these features and overall durability do come at a slight cost in size, 10 men's. These guys weigh in at 1 pound per sandal. This weight can take some getting used to, but it is a small price to pay for such an amazing sandal. If you own a pair of Newports, you can leave us your experiences in the comments below we're keen to hear your story

 These bands are separated from your foot by a nice cushioning layer for added comfort. A good thing to note is that this sandal is machine washable. If the top bands are looking a little muddy, dirty or sweaty, you can throw these in the washing machine. These bands can be pulled in by the bungee cord in the front

 Now, let's take a look at the top of the sole. There is excellent Ridge support in the middle of the shoe and you may notice the anti-odor footbed here Keene uses clear sport NXT, which breaks down sweat with enzymes. This treatment is bound to the footbed material and only engages in contact with sweat. We have left a link in the description

Keen Newport H2 Waterproof Sandal Review

 I wanted something I didn't have to wear socks with, but I could tell still take off and you know, go out backpacking with and these two proven to be perfect. So far, let me see if I can lift my foot up and show you the bottom of them. Let'S see so you can see there, it's that, it's that good grip on the bottom, it's a very, very solid sole. So you know, as I'm walking on rocks, doesn't bother me

 Let'S see so you can see there, it's that, it's that good grip on the bottom, it's a very, very solid sole. So you know, as I'm walking on rocks, doesn't bother me. If I get out in the water doesn't bother me. The snakes may bother me there's a lot of snakes in the water today

[, Music, ], hey y'all, I Rick's guy here and I want to do a quick review of the Keene sandals. These sandals are super cool because you can see the toes are reinforced. So it's hard to stump your toe. The sides are also reinforced and then the soles - let me show you this on the side here you got the side kind of open and then this little little strap thing right here that opens and closes the shoes

These shoes are light, comfortable, and low-maintenance. They’re perfect for wet, muddy, or hot conditions since they breathe well and dry quickly.

Its design allows it to be tossed in the washing machine with little worry of damage. This should do the trick, but wetsuit soap can also be added if you’ve got some really powerful stink that needs liberating. Keen advises on its website to wash Newports on a gentle cycle then air dry them.

Fit Tip: This style is running a 1/2 small. We suggest ordering a 1/2 size larger than your usual size!

Keen began in 2003, introducing its unconventional Newport design to the market with rapid success. Although Keen is based in Portland, Oregon, it manufactures in Europe, Asia, and North America. Keen donates $10,000 each year to support nonprofits around the world encouraging outdoor engagement.

Review: Keen Newport H2 Hiking Sandals – Durable Enough for You?

 Plus, my feet sometimes swell after long hikes of six or more miles, so it’s nice to know I can expand and contract these shoes based on where I am in the hike, and how long I expect to go. 

Unlike hiking boots, I don’t envision wearing the KEEN Women's Newport H2 Sandals very often, which makes the $110 price tag a bit hard to swallow. However, if you know you plan to use them frequently—so your price per wear might be lower—they’re worth it for their high-quality build and comfortable, customizable fit. Plus, KEEN has sales throughout the year, so you may be able to find a steal if you wait long enough!

The sandals also kept my feet comfortable, with arch support that felt designed to cradle my foot’s contours. Plus, weighing just 10.5 ounces, I was shocked by how lightweight and bouncy these shoes felt for the entirety of my three-mile hike.
