About Keen
Keen sandals and outdoor shoes: Uneek and Jasper. The rubber cap over the toes is the giveaway.
Keen was founded in 2003 by Martin Keen and Rory Fuerst in Portland, Oregon. Keen had the idea for the Newport sandal back in 1999 while sailing: tired of stubbing his toes on deck, he built a sandal with a rubber cap over the front. It landed immediately – Footwear News named the company Launch of the Year in 2003. That toe cap is still the giveaway.
