History of the KEEN Kaci Winter Waterproof Mid
In 2003, Martin KEEN launched the KEEN footwear line which embodied his love for the great outdoors. It started off with the KEEN Newport, a multi-sport sandal that provided exceptional grip on rocky and wet terrains but provided exceptional toe protection.
In the following years, the brand has expanded its offerings that protect against different weather conditions like the KEEN Kaci Winter Waterproof Mid.
Since its conception, KEEN has made it its mission to protect and conserve the environment by partnering with numerous non-profit organizations with the same agenda.
