At road.cc every product is thoroughly tested for as long as it takes to get a proper insight into how well it works.
Our reviewers are experienced cyclists that we trust to be objective. While we strive to ensure that opinions expressed
are backed up by facts, reviews are by their nature an informed opinion, not a definitive verdict. We don't intentionally
try to break anything (except locks) but we do try to look for weak points in any design. The overall score is not just
an average of the other scores: it reflects both a product's function and value – with value determined by how a product
compares with items of similar spec, quality, and price.
What the road.cc scores mean

I too are keen on Keen sandals and pretty much live in the pair I have. Because of that I would have loved the Keen cycle sandals to have fitted me like the other sandals I have.
I found them way to narrow even when going a size bigger.
Here is my little review about them, http://www.woollypigs.com/2010/05/keen-commuters-vs-newport-h2/
hi, i have been using these sandals for more than a year. I have big feet so got a pair of size 48.
The fit is very good, but they are narrow at the heel. I think the fastening cinch cord is ok, but a bit flimsy for regular use. What is good about them is the toe cover which it allows you to actually do things in them rather than the open toe shimano type.
I have worn them continously on a recent two week tour of wales and would recomend them to any one, but they should try them on first to get a good fit. They are best cycling sandal on the market imho.
I have a pair and used them the last 2 summers. Overall I am happy with them: I find the fit fine, and no little toe problem (YMMV).
However I think the name "Commuter" is misleading: they have a thick, heavy tread more suited to mountain biking !! For a "commuter" model (speaking as a daily bike commuter) I would lighten the shoe by removing the toe cover and reducing the tread thickness.
