KEEN-parison: Which Multi-Activity Shoes for Summer?

Life’s too short to stop and change into different shoes. That’s the philosophy that guides us to create designs that can go from one activity to the next without the transition time.

Get a pair of multi-activity shoes for summer, and you’ll be set up for maximizing your road-tripping, paddling, camp-cooking, kid-chasing time outdoors, while keeping your gear bag as light as possible.

Here are a few of our favorite one-shoe wonders:

Multi-Activity Shoes for Summer Hiking Biking Water Sports Travel
Newport H2 Sandal X X X X
Hyperport Sandal X X X X
Versacore Shoe X X X
UNEEK Sneaker X X


Newport H2 Sandals
: The first Newport sandal was invented for sailing. The Newport H2 sandal is the water-friendly version made for diving in. This in-and-out-of-the-water shoe really can be your one-and-done pair for summer. They’re up to the challenge of hikes big and small, as well as bike rides, camping trips, and every form of water adventure known to (wo)man. You can even mow the lawn in them (and then throw them in the washing machine after). Yeah, they’re our #1 bestseller for a reason. Shop women’s and men’s Newport H2 water shoes here.

Hyperport Sandals: Hyperport (shown in the feature image at the top) takes the hybrid versatility of Newport, and maximizes it with all-day comfort. This fast & light performance hiking/water sandal is ready for anything: rafting, SUPing, fishing, or kayaking, hopping on a bike, and exploring new terrain in the city. Check out Hyperport sandals for men and women here.

Versacore Shoe: The Versacore is that just-right mix of hiker and sneaker. Lighter for all-around comfort, yet durable for whatever activity you jump into. Take it on a bike ride? Sure! How about an all-day ride with a beach campout at the end? Yeah! An epic road trip with plenty of pit stops for scenic vista photo ops? You read our mind. Check out the Versacore, in vented or waterproof styles here.

UNEEK Sneaker: The UNEEK is our original open-air sneaker, made with two cords and a sole. As comfortable in the city as it is at the campground, this breathable, comfy style can handle low-key bike rides and full travel days. Shop UNEEK in many colors and limited-edition collab designs here.

Oh yeah, and one more thing: All of these shoes are also perfect for kicking back with a beer (BTW, we are loving the non-alcoholic IPA trend. Have you tried one?!) as you recount the best parts of your day.
