I like them so far.

edit: mine look like the same exact thing, only with a different brand name and grey soles instead of black.

I have these, but I only used them for my winter riding.

They're nice. You have to cut out the rubber to expose the cleat area, but they are pretty nice to ride/walk in if you like sandels.

I don't really care for sandels, but I like them for the winter riding. Hope that helps. The price is right too.

I bought the sandals from pricepoint. They're a bit squishy but its really nice to be able to wiggle my toes. I wouldn't race or take a long ride in them though.

I've got a pair of Lake sandals that I wear year round. They're great.

Yeah, I've seen photos and they look like something I could wear. I have an unnatural dislike of sandals but am considering getting a pair for my trip this summer.

There is nothing unnatural about a dislike of sandals.

Free shipping on KEEN through April 17 from REI.
But why gray for teh ladies? Ick.

I did like that one of the reviewers noted that
there is "No risking your limbs with a sharp knife
trying to cut away the sole to get at the cleat slots "
Any one who has done the cutting can appreciate that!

I'm a sandal junkie, worn keens, chacos, and have a pair of the Lake SPDs I commute in all summer. I think that the way KEEN has designed their cycling sandal out right SUCKS because of one reason, no improved heel support or anything really except for the cleat mount to make it a cycling sandal. My lakes have big plastic reinforced heel strap, which keeps your feet nice and stable especially when I sprint, like most cycling shoes. Keen has done nothing and only put a cleat in the bottom of they newports and called it a cycling sandal. Plus that is one of my main issues with my keens, they don't keep my heel real stable. If they'd reinforce the heal strap and do some other things to actually make it a cycling sandal, it'd be worth the price.
