This item is currently sold out or unavailable online.

For your reference, this page contains historical product information.

Powerful and swift, take your cross-training to the next level with Keen Powerline shoes that offer minimalist soft-shell construction and excellent all-around support.

  • Seamless soft-shell polyester uppers with abrasion-resistant thermoplastic urethane (TPU) overlays supply breathability and durability
  • Asymmetrical lace system better distributes support across insteps and helps reduce bunching; padding across tongues and collars adds comfort
  • Patented rubber Toe Guards protect feet and uppers from bumps and abrasion
  • Wicking nylon mesh linings absorb sweat and disperse it quickly for fast drying
  • Removable Metatomical EVA footbeds are shaped to provide cushioning, rebound and arch support
  • Triple-density EVA midsoles deliver serious cushioning and pronation control for stability and comfort on rough trails
  • TPU shanks add torsional stability on uneven terrain while flexible TPU plates help protect against stone bruising
  • S3 (shock, suspension, stability) heel support structure supports the feet on impact, dissipates shock and reduces the chance of twisting an ankle
  • Outsoles feature multidirectional lugs to help provide solid traction over a variety of surfaces and conditions

Average weight specification is per pair, based on size 9.

Imported.

      Comments about Keen Powerline Cross-Training Shoes - Men's:

      Picked up the shoes and wore them around the test track at the Seattle store. For new shoes they fit pretty well so took them home. Wore them to work and with in 4 hours felt something funny on one shoe. Turns out the sole was peeling off the left heal. [...], now to see if I can find something else for my upcoming trip.

      • Sizing:
      • Feels half size too small
      • Width:
