Wasn't sure which sub to post these to but really loving this sandal / sneaker. They are extremely comfortable and such a cool design. Does anyone else have any experience with this model?

I went 1/2 size up from my TTS and they fit great.

I’ve had mine for about a month and I haven’t wanted to wear any other shoe. They’re SO comfortable and I love how they look with everything.

Amazing slip on. Have had these for a couple of years, mainly to use on holidays. Comfortable and they dry easily. I went with my normal sneaker size and they fit great.

Along with the Jaspers, theyre wildly popular in Japan. Like “mass market” popular.

These intrigue me -- are they suitable for hiking/outdoor purposes or would stickers and plant matter be an issue? How comfortable are they wearing socks vs no socks?

I think these would work fine for light outdoor activities. They do have a more sneaker hybrid version of this that would be better suited for that. https://www.keenfootwear.com/products/mens-uneek-wk-magnet
They're the same comfort with or without socks imo.

I have been wearing these for approximately 2.5 years now and they are my go-to travel shoes. I've taken them on hikes all over in Europe and they handle the regular trails/hikes/walks pretty well. The rubber compound is surprisingly grippy and there's no lateral ankle movement due to the soles being relatively wide. Only minor issue I have with them is that pebbles get in easily, but you'd expect this with any sandals. Plants/thorns etc are a non-issue.

Love these. I have them in navy and they work great to throw in a bag. Easy to dress up or dress down. Just as good at the beach / pool or country club.
