KEEN and Tokyo-based label BAL have teamed up to release the HIGHTRAIL SP WP sneaker, marking their first collaboration. Built on KEEN’s high-performance trail platform, the shoe pairs a plush, high-cushioning sole unit with bal’s signature “Vapor” colorway rendered in suede and performance mesh.

Engineered for all-weather wear, it features KEEN.DRY, the brand’s proprietary waterproof, breathable membrane, while quick-lace bungee cords and a snug, low-profile construction position it squarely as modern “urban outdoor” footwear. Produced in limited numbers and with selective distribution, the HIGHTRAIL SP WP bridges rugged trail functionality and city-ready style.
