KEEN Mission

We’re Not Here to Just Make Shoes

When we started KEEN in 2003, we said we'd do things differently. We'd bring people together, look out for each other, and take care of our planet. That's why we're in business. We just happen to make really good shoes.

Our Core Values

We call them markers.

We believe we can go further and have more fun, together. That we are one human race, and winning that race means working together.

From the products we create to the events we host, we like making things that have never existed before.

Our fans count on us to help keep them safe and comfortable, and we will not let them down.

We believe in being there for others in their time of need. That talk is cheap. We like to take action.

We Make Shoes To Make A Difference

We're reducing the impact our shoes have on the planet and making the outside and the trades more accessible for all. We call it the "KEEN Effect."

Harvest Materials

We use harvested materials, like webbing made from post-consumer plastic bottles and outsoles made with agricultural waste. Fewer resources, less impact.
