The Happy Camper: Keen’s New Sandal and Waterproof Hiking Boot
I’ve been on a lot of canoe trips this season.
Yay for me. And thankfully I got myself two new pieces of footwear from Keen Canada to keep my feet cozy along the way.
Men’s Hyperport H2 Sandal
I have always loved Keen sandals, but the Hyperport H2 are extra special to me. The comfort is unbelievable. Seriously! Yes, they are water-repellent, with spacious room across the forefoot for your toes to spread out, along with a lace-lock bungee system and anti-odour control. That’s all great. But it’s the arch support—the maximal cushioning and extra thick midsole—I really love.
Plus, the extra traction they provide is incredible. The added bonus is they only had the bright yellow left to order—so I went with the bumble bee colour. Sounds weird, but it’s the best colour. I’ll never lose them around camp.
Targhee IV Waterproof Hiking Boot
This new style of Keen Targhee boots is similar to other boot designs I have used. They fit cozy right out of the box and have a nice wide fit. But the latest Targhee design is a heck of a lot lighter and more durable with their glue-free fused construction (guaranteed not to delaminate). I have worn this pair of boots on many occasions this season (46 and counting), and they still look brand new. They give you good grip, waterproof features and amazing cushioning along a portage. I highly recommend them.
