The new Keen Newport Retro x Gramicci<\/a><\/strong> stands as a true statement of intent: conscious design can transform the way we experience adventure. This hybrid sandal\u2014part hiking shoe, part water sandal\u2014preserves the pillars that made it iconic since its launch in 2003: toe protection, non-slip outsole, and quick-dry materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The centerpiece of this limited edition is hemp, one of the most sustainable natural fibers on the planet, used both in the upper and in the zigzag mountain stitch detailing, a signature of Gramicci<\/a>. This update is also PFAS-free, reflecting Keen\u2019s commitment to creating cleaner, more responsible footwear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although born in the United States, Keen<\/a><\/strong> and Gramicci<\/strong> share a remarkable cultural journey: their true explosion of popularity happened in Japan. Both brands found in the Japanese market a community that values functionality, durable design, and a deep connection to nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keen\u2019s evolution from the revolutionary Newport to a sustainability-driven brand, and Gramicci\u2019s journey from essential climbing gear to urban fashion reference, reflect a shared philosophy: creating products meant to last, move, and respect their surroundings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
