Keen's Hybrid Bags

We love Keen shoes. They are durable, comfortable and well-priced. And now we love Keen bags too!

The Keen Hybrid Transport line features strong, efficient designs featuring materials like recycled aluminum hardware and recycled rubber components left over from its shoemaking process. How cool is that?

And, according to Sustainable Industries, some Keen bags also include recycled foam and polyester from outside sources.

Altogether, Keen’s Hybrid.Transport line contains 40 percent recycled materials with a goal of reaching 100, according to Groff. The company also packages shoes in boxes made from biodegradable materials, natural water-based latex glue and soy-based inks.
