KEEN, Inc. is an American shoe manufacturing company based in Portland, Oregon. It was founded in 2003 by Martin Keen and Rory Fuerst. Their shoes are now available in more than a thousand retail locations in the United States, and are distributed worldwide across Europe, North America, Central America as well as Australia and New Zealand.

The first KEEN shoes were invented to develop a sandal that could also protect the toes—they feature a signature thick black bumper covering the toes. They found a ready market in sailing and other outdoor and water activities. KEEN Footwear now offers shoes for many outdoor activities as well as casual shoes.
