"De-lamination," it's called. That's when the upper part of a boot starts to split from the outsole. And, odds are, that's why you throw away about 90% of the shoes and boots you buy. Thankfully, the Keen® Targhee IV features KEEN.FUSION construction, which fuses the upper to the outsole without the use of glue or adhesive, so they stick together as a unit better and longer than ever before. In fact, they're actually guaranteed to NEVER de-laminate for the life of the Boot. KEENs are already famously durable, and these take that reputation to a whole new level. Factor in the KEEN.Dry 100% waterproof, breathable membrane, KEEN.RUGGED outsole that's twice as abrasion-resistant as regular rubber, and an air-injected midsole that stays springy…and you have one of the best, most well-rounded Hikers on the planet.
