There was a time when KEEN was the shoe you packed for the trip. Now it's the shoe you plan the outfit around.
Founded in 2003, the Pacific Northwest label made its name by solving a problem. The Newport sandal's now-famous protective toe cap offered the freedom of a sandal with the reassurance of a shoe, quickly earning a following among hikers, paddlers and outdoor adventurers. What nobody could have predicted was its second life.
Somewhere between the trail and the city, KEEN became a cult favourite. The cord-woven Uneek, climbing-inspired Jasper and a steady stream of thoughtful collaborations helped introduce the brand to an entirely new audience, one just as interested in design as durability. Today, KEEN occupies a rare position in the footwear world. Practical enough for the outdoors, distinctive enough to stand out everywhere else.
