KEEN

Summary:

KEEN releases two limited-edition all-black leather shoes on August 27, 2026.
UNEEK Loafer costs €190 ($210 / £160) and Newport Oxford costs €170 ($185 / £145).
Leather Working Group certified tanneries supply all upper and lining materials.

KEEN expands beyond traditional outdoor performance with the limited Nocturnal Pack, adapting signature hiking footwear for street culture. You get two redesigned footwear options built with a solid black palette suitable for daily office commutes, creative studio work, and evening social events. Portland design teams shifted classic outdoor aesthetics toward city environments, aligning with current cultural shifts toward monochrome dark wardrobe styling.

The UNEEK Loafer reimagines the original two-cord sneaker architecture into a hand-woven leather slip-on design. Footwear artisans hand-stitch the premium black leather upper, inner lining, and footbed using traditional techniques. Tanneries certified by the Leather Working Group supply all raw leather for environmental accountability. Below, an engineered hybrid rubber outsole delivers grip and flexible comfort during urban walking. You purchase the UNEEK Loafer for €190 ($210 / £160).

The Newport Oxford transforms the brand's original hybrid adventure sandal into a structured leather shoe. Open-air side construction blends with solid black leather, moving a recognized trail silhouette into urban footwear spaces. Certified responsible tanneries provide the upper materials, giving you lasting durability alongside verified environmental standards. You purchase the Newport Oxford for €170 ($185 / £145).

Blaine Conrad, Vice President of Product at KEEN, explains how the collection fuses outdoor utility with premium leather craftsmanship. The design approach yields footwear focused on daily practical use while honoring heritage outdoor shapes. You find the Nocturnal Pack launching at select global retailers and online at keenfootwear.com on August 27, 2026.
