History
KEEN began in 2003 by asking a simple design question: Can a sandal protect the toes? The answer was yes. The answer was the Newport. This one radical departure for sandals inspired the overriding KEEN philosophy of hybrid innovation, of striving to create new possibilities in everything we do - pushing ourselves to discover and implement original ideas in our products and challenging ourselves to consider each choice we make. As we grow we promise to continue seeking product solutions for life's everyday needs. Designing shoes for your HybridLife and incorporating processes that reduce our impact on the places you play.
Specialties
We all live many lives splitting our time between work, play and giving back. At KEEN we call this living a HybridLife. HybridLife is the KEEN mantra, our commitment to create solutions in our product and business practices, to design footwear, bags and socks that enable you to play anyplace without a ceiling; and our promise to care for each other and the world around us. We invite you to join us in tossing on a pair of KEEN shoes, socks or a bag and to diving head first into living a HybridLife.
