The KEEN Utility Vista Energy Mid is a mid-height work sneaker with a carbon-fiber safety toe. The upper is a lightweight, breathable 2-layer engineered mesh with a mesh liner. It has a PFAS-free durable water repellent finish and a non-mutilating surface that reduces the chance of marking or scratching surfaces.
The KEEN.ReGEN midsole is lightweight and resists compression, with up to 50% energy return with every step. A nylon shank supports the midfoot, and a removable metatomical insole adds comfort and support. The KonnectFit heel-capture system and a lace capture system give a locked-in, secure fit.
The construction is 100% non-metallic, so the shoe can pass through metal detectors in highly secured areas. The left and right asymmetrical carbon-fiber toes are 15% lighter than steel. The shoe is electrical hazard (EH) rated, which helps provide a secondary source of protection in case of accidental outsole contact with live electrical circuits.
