Kaci III Winter Waterproof Women’s Walking Boots – AW23

Keen Kaci III Winter Waterproof Women’s Walking Boots

When winter rolls in, Keen’s Kaci III Winter Boot is ready. This longtime fan favourite has the warmth and waterproofing you need to go outside all season long. Plus, they have updated it with a super cute floral pattern on the overlay, and a cosy plaid collar and tongue.

Waterproof Premium Leather Upper

Premium leather uppers will encase each foot in durable comfort. The environmentally preferred premium leather from an LWG-certified tannery is better for the environment and ensures your feet stay protected from uneven terrain on your adventures. To avoid damp feet, and therefore dampened spirits, a KEEN.DRY membrane resides inside the boot; supplying a combination of durable waterproofing and optimised breathability. Sometimes it’s hard to stay dry without developing that distracting clammy feeling, but KEEN.DRY keeps water on the outside while letting perspiration escape from the inside; keeping sweat to a minimum and you, cool and comfy. As well as this, the boots feature KEEN.WARM, the brand’s signature insulation that is extremely compressible and light for the warmth it provides. This insulation will retain heat in colder wintry environments, which means that you will be able to take on all weather conditions without the risk of feeling exposed. Additionally, it retains its insulating ability, even when damp. Keen uses naturally occurring, beneficial microbial enzymes called CLEANSPORT NXT to control odour. Using special technology, these live enzymes are bonded to the boot lining where they remain dormant until exposed to moisture. The microbes are activated by moisture from perspiration. Perspiration contains odour-causing bacteria. CLEANSPORT NXT organisms thrive on this odour-causing bacteria thereby eliminating odour biologically. So you and your gear get that fresher-for-longer feel.

A traditional lacing system and comfortable collar work together to secure the foot, providing added stability and reducing the risk of in-shoe slippage. Speed hooks offer easy lace adjustment so you can quickly adjust the fit on the move. Featuring iconic Keen comfort, the original fit of the boot secures your heel while offering generous space across your forefoot so your toes can spread out naturally. This version of the Kaci has been updated with a subtle floral pattern on the overlay, plus a plaid collar and tongue for added style.

Lightweight EVA Midsole

Constructed using a lightweight EVA midsole, the Kaci III provides comfortable cushioning that keeps you going all day long. The EVA provides significant cushioning and comfort to help improve the level of your performance so you can stay at your optimum level, for longer. Holding excellent cushioning abilities, the midsole absorbs shocks as you move throughout the gait cycle providing resilient cushioning and reducing the risks of potential injury. A removable PU insole also features within the midsole for long-lasting comfort. The insole sits comfortably under the foot and can be easily removed if you’d prefer not to use it. Completing the midsole is a stability shank that delivers lightweight support and reduces the chance of ankle rolling or injury by providing a bit more stability to the foot whilst on rough terrain.

High-Traction Rubber Outsole

The rubber outsole provides exceptional grip and traction to promote confidence and conviction in each and every stride. Having a more assured footing will reduce the risk of potential injury as well as minimise the amount of wear and tear placed on the joints. The durable rubber provides a strong grip on the most challenging terrain; it works to protect itself from damage, and protect users from losing control and slipping. It is also highly durable meaning no matter what you throw at it, the Kaci III will perform time and time again. This high-traction rubber promotes grip on a multitude of surfaces while delivering the durability you need to go the distance.
