Huntsman announces innovative collaboration with Keen

News- Footwear experts at Huntsman have helped Keen, Inc. develop a breakthrough production innovation – a range of sneakers with plant-based soles. The Field to Foot (F2F) sneakers were created by Keen’s Team, utilizing a specially developed bio-based polyurethane system from Huntsman that contains a by-product from agricultural processing

Containing bio content ranging from 35% to 51%, the polyurethane system has a lower carbon footprint than petroleum-based alternatives that are readily available and currently the norm in footwear production

Keen has described its’ F2F sneakers as among its most significant environmental technology launches and a meaningful step towards setting a new industry standard for more sustainable footwear

F2F sneakers were initially made available as a limited edition in September 2021 and sold out quickly. Keen will launch the product broadly on August 1st, 2022, and is expecting significant demand for the program
