KEEN Impact

Making a KEEN Effect

We envision a shoe industry that has a positive impact on lives, without having a negative impact on the planet.

See Our 2023 Impact Report

We're taking action on climate and shifting to renewable energy, consciously creating our shoes, and investing in nonprofit partners around the world.
