Who should buy the KEEN Evofit One
The KEEN Evofit One is a commendable piece of gear because of its excellent qualities. It is a solid option if you:
- Prefer a hiking sandal that is crafted for adventurers who value outdoor performance, agility, and mobility.
- Excellent arch support.
- Prefer a hiking sandal that offers stability on challenging terrain.
Optimize traction on wet surfaces
The KEEN Evofit One allows users to overcome most types of terrain through its Aquagrip rubber outsole. It uses the brand’s proprietary rubber blend and a pattern of irregularly-shaped lugs that optimize traction on wet surfaces. This component also employs razor siping, a series of thin slits, across its rubber surface which provides added grip.
Comfortable cushioning
The Evofit One’s PU midsole cushions the user’s stride which creates a comfortable ride. It also resists wear brought about by constant compression. This component works in tandem with a removable metatomical PU footbed.
Excellent arch support
It cradles the natural contours of the wearer’s foot and renders arch support. Thermo polyurethane (TPU) inserts are also positioned in the midsole’s key zones which grant extra durability and stability.
Quick-dry and breathable
This KEEN product features an Evofit upper made of synthetic fabric. It uses a 4-way dynamic stretch design that adapts to the natural mechanics of the user’s foot. This quick-drying component also minimizes heat and improves breathability.
Offers protection from accidental knocks
The KEEN Evofit One’s sturdy rubber cap covers the toe area and protects it from accidental knocks. Its closure system employs a series of thin fabric eyelets and a lace bungee that allows fit management.
Zero break-in period
A pair of pull tabs are found on the tongue and at the collar’s rear that permit an easy on and off.
