We recently called this Keen water-sandal-hiking-shoe hybrid the new shoe of the summer in the Secret Strategist (the Mary-Kate Olsen Tevas previously held this distinction). Our senior writer Lauren Ro first spotted the bungee-cord monochrome shoe on the Instagram of Paris boutique Rendez-Vous, where it was paired with a billowy skirt and looked rather stylish for something so gorpy. She immediately picked up a pair — and so did a bunch of fellow staffers, their friends, and readers too. They’re extremely comfortable and can take you through a hike in the woods or a walk around the city. To celebrate our move to Substack, we’ve partnered with the brand this summer to give away one pair of Newport H2s.
