KEEN x Études Studio's latest joint sandals officially debut

KEEN's classic Newport sandals are reinterpreted by Paris design team Études Studio this time, launching an exquisite version that incorporates the brand's minimalist style single-letter logo. Photographer Grégoire Dyer is a photographer, paired with the poetic arrangement of advertising plans designed by Pauline Lavogez. The model's smooth movements are cleverly echoing the two color schemes “black” and “green”, showing the dynamic beauty of the shoe.

Originally designed to cope with humid environments, Newport sandals are tough and durable in structure, equipped with KEEN's signature toe protection design to ensure safety of the feet; the soles are made of knife-carved lines for excellent grip. The replaceable elastic rope system makes it easier to put on and take off, while the upper combines functionality and fashion. The black and green versions are launched this time, with the upper covered with the “É” logo in the Études Studio sans serif font and embellished with the brand's blue tones, and the details reveal low-key design ingenuity.

With its durable shoe design, KEEN has attracted more and more cooperative attention from modern brands in recent years. The updated styles launched are not only suitable for urban streets, but also show off its skills in outdoor hiking. Joining forces with Madhappy, KEEN has created a more forward-looking Shanti Clog with a futuristic outline; while working with Gramicci has replaced Jasper Zionic with a plush suede upper to add texture and personality.

This shoe has now been listed on the official websites of KEEN and Études Studio.
