The shoe feels like an old friend from the second you put it on.

Very cute and comfortable -- perfect for the fall season or any time of the year.

I have worn to work and on the weekend -- looks great dressed up or with denim.

Have received many compliments.

In my regular size, the shoe felt too snug, so I ordered a 1/2 size up. In the larger size, my heel slipped around. I called the Keen people, and they said to keep the smaller size, that it would break in to my foot.

After quite a few bandaids and some bruises from where the top meets my foot, they're finally feeling comfortable.

Bottom line, they're really cute, but not straight out of the box comfy.

These shoes are very cute, but; they are not as supportive as my other Keens and they feel a little too small and narrow. My first pair Keen's are now 5 or 6 yrs. old and I have had a very hard time trying to replace them. Not that I haven't enjoyed trying..... Overall, I really like them very comfortable and cute....but, not truly in love with them

My first Keen purchase and I was very excited about how adorable these are, but as soon as I started walking the tops of the shoes dug into my instep (not the strap but the curved of the cutout). I'll try another pair the same size and hope this pair was just made without less material than required, but might have to go with a different style. I can't imagine that everyone on here has totally flat feet! That seems to be the only way I can think that these wouldn't hurt. If my feet swell at all I can see these leaving very angry red indentions.

I was a little disappointed to see that the flowers are not even close to the brighter green in the image on the web site. They are a muddy green that blends in against the shoe.

Up until now I have worn the Seattle Mary Janes which have a buckle on the strap that grinds into the side of your foot if you are sitting cross-legged or with your foot folded under you. The strap on these is much more comfortable (no buckle and the elastic bit automatically gives for thicker socks and such so no manual adjusting!). And since they are Keens I know they are comfortable for me.

I have two other pairs of Keens. These are a full size small, not half a size small like my other pairs. The footbed doesn't seem quite as sturdy as my other pairs. I'm returning these, but since they are very good looking, will order another pair--a full size larger than my usual.

Bottom Line:

These are great shoes if you're looking for something a little more stylish and feminine than Keen oxfords, plus they are easy to slip on and off. I was a little disappointed with the thin insoles and quickly replaced them with a more supportive one (the insoles from Keen Presidio or Briggs work great). They are somewhat wide but the strap helps keep the shoe from slipping off and thin socks help also. They are great shoes if you're on your feet a lot.

I have several pairs of Keen's. I generally love the brand, although these are not as comfortable as the others I have. The run a bit more snug than the usual sizing. My others always feel a bit large and these feel slightly snug, although I am good in my normal size. Pretty cute and comfortable. I did wear them walking around for a full day sightseeing, and they did get a bit uncomfortable towards the end of the day.

When I saw them on the website, they took my breath away! I had to have them! I wear a size 6, but when they arrived, they were too small. I returned them for a 6.5 and thought maybe those were a tad bit too small. I ordered a size 7 and they were way too big, so I settled for the 6.5. They do attract attention everywhere I go, and I've received many compliments on them. These shoes are definitely keepers!

I have a few pairs of Keens and they are comfortable and durable. However, the first hour I wore these, the small elastic strap that fits over the top of the foot started to tear on one of the shoes! I had not looked at the strap carefully before I wore them, but it is possible that there was a defect to begin with. Anyway, I took the shoes to my shoe repair guy and he said that the elastic on the shoe is not at all durable and needed to be replaced. He showed me what he normally uses for that purpose, and I was amazed at how much more substance the elastic he uses had than elastic material that came on the shoes. I am having the elastic on both shoes replaced for $16, so add that to the price I paid for the shoes and they will have cost me over [$] They are cute, though.

I wear these shoes any chance I can get! I love to wear them with jeans, skirts, chinos...etc, I recieve many compliments on them. These are my first pair of Keen shoes and as others have written they are mighty comfortable and cute to boot! At first, the back of the right heel scraped a bit; however it stop after a few days and a blister did not form. I have not worn them in the rain yet so I do not know if they are water-repellent. (I am not sure I want to risk trying either).....All and all...fun, great, pair of shoes!

These shoes are cute and comfortable. But if your computer shows the picture as a dark green shoe with lighter color leaves, that might not be entirely accurate. The pair that arrived the other day has much darker leaves... almost the same color as the shoe. Still a really nice shoe and quite cute.

The shoe looks great in a photo but looks even better on your foot. The Keen Portland Blossom is one of the most stylish shoes from Keen yet! It is a multi-function shoe that can transition from dressing for colder winter temperatures to warm spring temperatures. The shoe is extremely comfortable and looks great with jeans, khakis or capris. Whether you are camping, going to the kids baseball game or going shopping, you can't go wrong with this shoe!

These are great for work or shopping. They are very comfortable and cute. They resist stains so they always look new. I love all of my keen shoes because they are made just wide enough so my toes can spead out and not bunch up.

I find that I am buying more and more Keen shoes because of that.

These are my second pair of Keens and I loved the style and bought these shoes from Online for a trip to Dubai and they arrived two days before I left so no break-in time and I wore them throughout the trip and had no problems. They fit perfectly, were great for traveling through airport security, and wonderful for walking. Unlike my other Keen shoes, these are not as wide at the toe and more fashionable and the fit is just as comfortable. Great shoes. I am ordering them in another color. Online as always was great.
