Keens

[Rihanna]

Collective term for Hybrid footwear by Keen Footwear. [Keens] HybridLife message is Create. Play. Care. Their initial range, consisting primarily of river sandals and the rubber Yogi, debuted only in 2004 but met with such success the line rapidly expanded to encompass outdoor performance, rugged, and lifestyle footwear.
Keens are a bit more stylish and upscale than their assumed rivals, Chaco and Teva. However, Keens lifestyle footwear in particular the Market Street and Boulevard collections, embrace the concept of [urbaneering]. Keens are probably the closest thing today to the rich hippy aesthetic of the late 1960s and 1970s but are very today. They could be described as Outside magazine meets Wallpaper magazine but are rugged and functional enough for hardcore dirtbags. Consequently, Keens are often worn by male and female MountainSexuals.
In laid-back areas such as the [Arkansas River Valley] of Colorado and in mountain towns such as [Buena Vista] Colorado, some models of Keens are actually considered very dressy. This makes Keen perhaps the most comprehensive outdoors footwear line available - the possible exceptions being Patagonia footwear and [Merrell].
Keen now offers a line of sleek and functional backpacks and bags. These are very useful for travel and urbaneering.
Keen footwear and bags and packs are available only in better outdoor specialty stores such as [The Trailhead] in Buena Vista, Colorado.
