Keen Arroyo III Walking Sandals
Take on the muddiest trail or swiftest stream in these durable, versatile hiking shoes. The traction and support of a hiker combined with the element-repelling performance of a sandal all in one tough lace-up.
The Arroyo III Walking shoe by Keen provides practicality while still remains lightweight and stylish. Featuring a washable, waterproof nubuck leather upper the Arroyo not only keeps your feet dry by repelling water but also provides durable protection - perfect for all-weather days. This combined with a quick-dry lining keeps your feet dry, increasing overall comfort and allowing you to remain active for longer. Additionally, these sandals offer a secure-fit lace-capture system which provides a secure and snug fit. A heel support structure secures the heel firmly in place to prevent slippage and consequential blistering whilst, cleansport NXT offers natural odour control, eliminating odour-causing microbes ensuring your shoes smell fresher for longer.
The sandal's primary cushioning ability is derived from a dual density, compression-moulded EVA midsole compound that absorbs the brunt of the initial heelstrike phase of the gait whilst simultaneously attenuating shockwaves as it transitions forwards towards the toe-off phase. A removable, metatomical EVA footbed adheres to the contours of the foot for an adaptive lockdown whilst a secure fit lace capture system also works to deliver confidence-inspiring security.
This all sits atop a durable, non-marking and aggressively appointed outsole that boasts a series of 4mm, multi-directional lugs that yield comprehensive grip and traction on a range of surfaces. Torsional stability is afforded by an ESS stability shank that prevents the shoe from twisting throughout the midfoot, particularly useful on the rugged, uneven terrain this sandal is likely to be expected to perform on.
