With a breathable engineered mesh upper, KEEN Utility’s new Birmingham is a work shoe ready to keep the feet cool and supported when conditions heat up. Product highlights include a lightweight, compression-resisting KEEN.ReGEN midsole that returns 50% more energy than standard EVA foam and a KonnectFit heel-capture system provides a secure, locked-in feel. Additionally, a 100% non-metallic construction allows for easy passage for workers who may be required to go through metal detectors on the job. At the same time, the Birmingham does not sacrifice when it comes to safety. Features include asymmetrical carbon fiber toes that are 15% lighter than steel while offering a more unobtrusive fit as well as oil and slip-resistant, non-marking rubber outsole. The Birmingham will be available in two different colorways for men.
