Keen began with a moment of pure vision and a design challenge: can a sandal protect the toes? YES!
The company has built itself on hybrid innovation, redefining of the outdoors, and giving back to the community.
The hybrid products are designed to enhance any outdoor adventure (defined by Keen as anyplace without a ceiling), whether that be the coastline, mountains, city, or desert.
Each shoe has been designed with a selection of different elements created by Keen, which allows the consumer to connect with any adventure they set on. Elements include (but not exclusive to):
- Aegis Microbe Shield® – eliminating bacteria and fungi that cause odors, stains and product deterioration
- KEEN.CUSH – a combination of recycled PU, cork and memory foam that moulds and adjusts to the shape of the foot to give you all the cushioning you need
- KEEN.DRY – a proprietary waterproof, breathable membrane that lets vapor out without letting water in.
Not an ‘outdoor-sy’ person? No worries! Because Keen are so well designed, that they are also fabulous for jobs that require a lot of standing or walking!
As well as creating fabulous shoes, Keen Australia has dedicated time and financial resources to social and environmental organisations actively working towards the greater good. Companies and Organisations include:
- Australia Zoo
- Wildlife Warriors
- Burnet Institute
- No Roads
