KEEN Utility pushes boundaries with work sneaker

Listen to this article

The new Kansas City from KEEN Utility is a standout introduction for Fall ‘21, pushing the boundaries of what a work sneaker can do. Highly versatile, light on weight, and loaded with performance features, the Kansas City seamlessly transitions between indoor and outdoor work.

The Kansas City is the first work sneaker to boast KEEN.BELLOWS Flex technology, an ergonomically engineered system designed to offer multidirectional flexion making bending, squatting, kneeling, and knee-down work up to three times easier. Other product highlights include a KEEN.ReGEN performance cushioning midsole that returns 50% more energy than standard EVA foam, as well as an oil- and slip-resistant, non-marking lugged outsole tread design for optimal traction. Additional safety features of this medium-duty boot include asymmetrical carbon fiber toes that are 15% lighter than steel, KONNECTFIT heel-capture system to lock the heel down for sure-footed stability, and a completely non-metallic construction combined with EH rated protection underfoot from live electrical circuits.

The new Kansas City is available in low, mid-height, and mid-height waterproof styles for men.
