An inside look at the KEEN Utility factory in Portland, Oregon watching the Logandale take shape.
With the uppers assembled in a separate part of the world, they arrive in bins sorted by size.
A worker sets the uppers on a mold to have its turn on the carousel. After the rubber sole is placed in the mold, the "upper" is preheated before injected with a superheated polyurethane.
Once off the carousel, the excess PU must be trimmed off and be examined by the quality control.
Laces on, boxed in and sealed with the KEEN UTILITY sticker, you know these boots are quality made.
