We pull on the KEEN Whisper Sandal before taking on water adventures, everywhere from the white caps at the Royal Gorge to the gentle waters of the Long Island Sound. Keen gave this implemented a heel strap and quickdraw elastic cord to ensure we don't lose our sandals when we step into rushing water. The polyester webbing with anti-odor treatment prevents your feet from smelling like a riverbed when you're back at camp, and KEEN's patented toe protection prevents underwater debris from slowing you down. The EVA footbed keeps your dogs comfortable for the long haul, and the grippy rubber sole helps you stay upright on slippery surfaces.
