KEENMen's Arroyo 2 SandalLeather Working Group

This Arroyo li is a nice sandal, my only complaint is it is slightly small in the toe box area, but i do have a broadfoot.My advice, go for the newport if like me you have a wide foot, the newport is an excellent sandal, i have 3 pairs.i alternate them to even the wear and tear, they are so comfortable, but i thought i would try these as they are closed back and i can fit my special orthotic footbeds in them that is the main reason.Apart from this it's a great sandal for standard size feet, so i won't mark it down for that.Just an update, after wearing for a couple of weeks they have loosened up nicely especially in the toe box area, this was my initial gripe when i first got them, i wore socks with them because they was rubbing on my small toe but this seems to have alleviated and i realise i can wear a sock with them or bare foot as i think fit.This has come in handy as they dont look out of place with socks like an open sandal, and great for winter months with jeans, so have upgraded one star to five stars.

Nice wide fit ... really comfortable 3rd pair I have bought in 5 years !!! in case my first pair get too tatty !!!

The first pair that arrived looked almost worn, there was even grass under the insoles. Besides being too big they also didn't match in look, which is probably sloppy production. Swapped for a smaller size and now they fit perfectly, match and are very comfortable.So watch out what they give ya !!

These sandals are very robust and extremely comfortable. The only brand of footwear that come anywhere near the quality I am looking for. I would give 6 stars if I could.

Sole came off after 3 years of use hence 3 starsAlso the strap to tie the sandals just broke, replacement one isnt the same

Great walking sandal with the closed heel you can put your own insoles in and make them great for long summer walks without your feet getting over heated thanks to the open web design.

I was SO dissapointed, that I decided to write a review, mainly to warn the others. To be fair for KEEN - this is an opinion of a person who's been through his 3rd pair of Arroyo 2, across past 10 years. So, if it's your first pair and (important!) you have a chance to try them before buying and you'll find them comfortable - you can ignore what I'm saying here. I'm biased, since when buying my 3rd pair, I was expecting the same comfort and feel as my previous pair. But, there were some changes that KEEN have introduced, making it a completely different sandal (for me).See pictures if you don't want to read the below, I tried to summarize it visually.Note - my old sandals I'm showing on pics are worn. So the height differences might be slightly exaggerated, but still - the changes completely ruined the comfort for me.1. Sizing - the 42.5 EU I ordered now (2022) doesn;t fit my - it's way to small and my foot feels cramped. It is so different, that you can actually visually notice it. So, I immediately ordered a 43 EU. And, guess what - it feels too big now, mainly due to the fact that they've also altered the insole base and put a thicker insole - see next point.2. Foot position/insole: as mentioned, there is now some white padding added to the base. It doesn't look like it's going to last as it has a hole already, from new, under the heel. The addition of this padding in combination with the thicker insole makes you foot sitting higher. Because of this, when you walk around, it makes you feel like your sandal will fall of from your heel. It also feels unstable.Conclusion - I kept the 43 EU pair, as I needed something for an upcoming holiday. I replaced the insole with a thinner one, which helped a bit, but it still feels uncomfortble.Note - my partner (size 37 EU) had the EXACT the same reservations with her new 2022 pair. But she decided to ditch them completely as she didn't want to risk blisters. In her opinion these changes completely ruined the whole "it feels like you're not wearing any sandals" comfort that we used to have in past with Arroyo 2.

Love these sandals. I wear the size 6 uk (woman with size 5.5 wide feet). These are great for warmer weather walking when you want the ventilation sandals bring but need a closed toe, good grip and something more robust. I bought the canteen black which is a lovely neutral colour way.
