KEEN Utility has introduced the Fort Wayne boot, which is recommended for construction professionals and outdoor jobsites. The company reinvents the jobsite-classic moc toe wedge work boot with 21st-century materials and construction methods. Featuring a wrap-over rubber cap, the Fort Wayne offers flexibility, protection and traction that blends proven grit with modern design.
Other standout features include a direct-attached Luftcell air-infused, PU midsole for weightless comfort, a Barnyard Resistant leather upper and KEEN.DRY waterproof, breathable membrane. Safety enhancements include asymmetrical carbon-fiber safety toes that are unobtrusive and 15% lighter than steel as well as a lugged, EH-rated oil- and slip- resistant rubber outsole. A wedge boot for this generation, the Fort Wayne will be available for men.
IRONPROS Perspective
The Fort Wayne boot serves as a modern take on the traditional, bulky work boot. It has stylish features without compromising durability. KEEN's attempt to stand out from the sea of work boots on the market today will go a long way, as younger generations increase their presence on construction sites.
