Sandals with toe protection - that was the simple remit that American world-class sailor Martin Keen set himself, and in 2003 the first pair of Keen Newport sandals were launched to great acclaim. In those short few years since inception, the name Keen has become synonymous with innovative and stylish footwear, and through it’s own far reaching program of constant development and sustainability, Keen footwear is constantly at the forefront of a global and sustainable recycling program.
