The Hybrid Sandals
Wearing this type of footwear is perfect for people who can’t decide should they wear sandals or sneakers when it’s hot outside. Keen sandals are very interesting due to their hybrid nature, a mix between different types of footwear. And this is not just a coincidence, the man behind Keen intended to do this and had clear vision of how Keen sandals should look like.
Since this is a very young company, results it has are fantastic. Just five years ago Keen started with producing sandals and immediately reach the top shelfs in stores. First sandal made Keen extremely popular, Newport sandal. Such an interesting design couldn’t go unnoticed and people were attracted by its simplicity and charm. Newport sandals were built to cover the toes and this idea became a goal for Keen as a company. Now every type of sandal they made has a goal to protect the toes of its owner. This philosophy attracted so many people that it made Keen popular in just 3 short years.
Besides Newport, there were other types of sandals for men, women and kids. You will find great looking Bronx, Trailhead and Waterfront sandals that come in many different colors, designs and sizes. The water sandals alone are a great example of how one idea can change and improve footwear drastically. If you head to the beach with one of these, you will certainly be asked about them.
Along with Newport sandals, Arroyo and Boudler made quite an impact to the market because they combine the results of a trailer shoe with oppennes of sandals. The soles are sneaker soles while front and upper part remind of a leather sandals. The feet are safe behind the foot lace capturing system that is specially developed for Keen sandals. Besides that, a toe protection and washable upper is what makes these sandals superb and above others.
Other great qualities of Keen sandals is that they are very durable and will not let you down. They have a soft footbed and are very comfortable. but that doesn’t mean they are not strong. One other sandals we can compare them are Chaco sandals, they are used by hikers and mountain climbers due to their durability. The leather holds your feet tight and keeps entire sandal in perfect order. You won’t have to fear they will fall apart. In fact, they are so strong you can wash them without worrying that leather will crack or shrink.
I bet you have odor problems with your current sandals. Well, all Keen footwear is treated with special antimicrobal solution that prevents staining as well as odors. With this, you can relax and feel comfortable in your sandals, without feat that unpleasant odor will arise. It will really take some good sweating for it to occur, but then you just need to wash your sandals and you are good to go again.
You should check out your local stores and browse for Keen sandals on the Internet. Take a look what they have to offer and compare them to other sandals on the market. We are sure you can find a good pair for yourself and members of your family. All you need to do is take some time and choose a pair of sandals that will suit you best.

The hybrid signature style of Keen sandals
Keen began in 2003 with hybrid performance shoes that change to the rocky terrain or city roads. Amongst all of the Keen sandals, the Newport H2 has become the most worn.
They’re the brainchild of Art Center College design student Nancy and were created for Nike’s Remixed and Recut hybrid footwear line for Summer 2009.
Beach Shoes Make a Splash in the Fashion World
Sidewalk surfers are like a hybrid between a shoe and sandal. The sturdy sole is like that of a sandal, giving excellent traction in the sand and protection from sharp edges.
