It’s been more than 20 years since Keen launched its iconic Newport hiking sandal, which fast-tracked the New Hampshire company into the hiking footwear spotlight.
That was followed up a few years later by the burlier Targhee hiking boot, which took the best aspects of the Newport (a wide toe box and webbing design) and added more coverage. Though the leather Targhee has enjoyed decades of success, the last year has shown that the brand is ready to reach a more agile customer.
