TREAD LIGHTLY. HIKE HAPPY. OUR FAMOUS FIT, MADE TO GO FAST. The faster you go, the farther you go, the more you’ll see. That means more alpine meadows, more sunset views, and an extra-full camera roll. Splash through every puddle, hop across boulder fields, and slide through scree. Our lightest hiker to date with the KEEN famous fit and all-terrain tread, NXIS is ready for whatever your A to B looks like.What we love most about hiking fast is experiencing more things. More sunrises from the overlook, more high fives at the summit, more post-hike tea with friends back at the car park. And more terrain — tarmac to trail to scree to stone steps. So we took the room-for-your-toes comfort, protection, and stability of our iconic hiker and gave it a running shoe feel with a waterproof, engineered knit upper and all-terrain tread.

"Tell us more about your COMPANY / PRODUCT SUSTAINABILITY... "
COMPANY: We love making the most original, purposeful, comfortable, and durable footwear on the planet, but we really just want to make a difference. As a family-run business we’ve always felt we have a shared responsibility to do things the right way. The kind of products we make and how we treat our environment and each other are part of a mission we’ve taken to heart since KEEN was conceived in 2003.
In 2005, we collaborated with The Conservation Alliance through a combination of funding and activism that helped drive a 4X increase in its membership. The executive director referred to that impact as the “KEEN Effect.” The name stuck and now KEEN Effect represents the good we do to support our communities and protect the planet. Every time someone buys a KEEN boot, sandal, or sneaker, they help create a KEEN Effect.
We have a dedicated KEEN Effect team to helping drive lasting change across the entire company and beyond. By focusing on advocacy, conservation, and our consciously created approach, we strive to leave the world better than we found it.
And because we are aware that every product has an impact. And we’re on a path to lighten it. It’s a long journey, and we are definitely not there yet, but we are dedicated to do better.
We also don‘t like to use the word “sustainable”. Because the most sustainable decision would be to make nothing at all. But products make it possible to go outside and enjoy nature, connect with the world and with each other and do something good at the same time. And we believe in all of these things too. So for us, it‘s about being more aware of all the decisions that go into making a shoe and doing everything we can to minimize our impact on the planet. It‘s about rethinking the way things are normally done and acting on our values by doing things differently. Even if it is not the easiest way.

"We know there are FUN FACTS and / or a BACKSTORY! Please share!"
This program was built around the idea that No Terrain is the Same, that is where NXIS comes from. We took that philosophy and incorporated it to every part of the shoe. The horseshoe lug pattern was designed to take on any terrain, whether it be alpine rocks or city streets.
