This is my second pair of Keen sandals and I wear them all the time. I also own a pair of the Newport sandals (not to be confused with the H2) and I think they are great as well.

I like the H2 better for a few reasons. One, the footbed is more comfortable and they do not get stinky when they have been on long day hikes. Second, they canvas outers don't stretch nearly as much. The H2s have held their shape much better than the regular Newports which is huge when it comes to blister prevention. For hiking around, wet wading while fly fishing, or just lounging around the house these are my sandal of choice.
