The KEEN x Snow Peak collab lives up to the Hype

Lighter evenings, (slightly) warmer mornings and now the arrival of a super cool KEEN collab can only mean one thing, that Spring has finally sprung here in the UK. Brought together by a shared philosophy of sustainable manufacturing and a belief in creating products that inspire us to enjoy time in nature, KEEN have created a very special Hyperport H2 with Snow Peak. The first in what is hopefully going to be an ongoing relationship this H2 has been designed to move seamlessly from city streets to the campsite whilst bridging everyday life and the natural world, in order to foster a closer connection to nature. Based on their OG hybrid sandal, this new take features a maximal midsole with a high-grip outsole. Engineered to adapt to a panoply of environments, from rivers and mountain trails to urban and cosy campsite scenarios both the comfort and performance levels remain high on this highly anticipated, limited release. Dropping next week the collection includes an all-black adult model as well a kids’ model in colours inspired by Snow Peak’s iconic ‘Tane Hozuki’ LED lantern, a name taken from the traditional Japanese ground cherry plant. Whilst additional design details include a logo patch featuring the Snow Peak asterisk motif on the upper and their classic logo pin label at the heel. Whilst you’ll also find all of the other cool features that KEEN does so well on this release, such as a roomy toe-box, airy injected foam cushioning, pesticide free odour control and stretchy pull on tabs.
