KEEN Takes the Jasper From the Trail to the City With the New Flux Pack

KEEN is taking one of its Most recognizable silhouettes away from the trail and into the city with the new Jasper Flux pack. Built around two brands climbing-inspired Jasper franchise. The limited edition collection brings together five styles that trade traditional outdoor materials for refined leather, technical fabrics and cleaner construction.

The idea behind the six-pack is straightforward: create a sneaker that can move through an entire day without looking out of place. KEEN describes its target, wearer as a “city nomads”, between different parts of the city and different parts of everyday life. Show the resort keeps the Jasper outdoor DNA intact while giving the silhouette a more polished wardrobe.

Five Jaspers, Five Takes on City Living

The collection opens with the Jasper HW, which uses full-grain scuff-off leather decide to default a distressed patina overtime. Available in Flux Safari, the £140 sneaker deliberately allows wear to become part of its appearance, giving the letter a character that changes with use

The Jasper SE1 fix a softer approach, using ethnically sourced full-grain Nappa leather for a smoother, more luxurious finish. Soft glove leather lines both the upper and footbed, adding another layer of comfort to the city-ready construction. It comes in Flux Black and Flux Plaza Taupe for £150.

For something more technical, the Jasper SE2 TXT swaps leather for a densely woven technical fabric. The app is designed to provide high abrasion resistance, while a twill tongue and reflective laces add functionality to the silhouette. The sneaker comes in Flux Black and Flux Chocolate, priced at £130.

The Jasper Gets a Hiker’s Upgrade

The collection then pushes further with the Jasper Zionic HW, combining the character of the Jasper with the fast-and-light performance DNA of KEEN’s Zionic hiking shoe. The result sits somewhere between sneaker and hiker, with full-grain scuff-off leather ditching the silhouettes a more rugged finish that will develop its own patina.

Released in Flux Black and Flux Chooclate, the Jasped Zionic HW comes in at £160 in both men’s and women’s sizing.

The final style, the Jasper Zionic SE1, takesthe same hybrid concept into more refined territory. It’s ethnically sourced, full-grain Nappa leather construction is paired with soft glove leather lining across the upper and footbed, creating the most premium version of the pack. The Flux Black colourway is priced at £165.

Built for the Seven-Day City

Across all five styles, the Fluc Pack shifts the Jasper I’ll wait from the idea that out of footwear has to stay outdoors. KEEN keep the functional foundations that have made the silhouette recognisable, then changes the materials and finishes to make it work of everyday clothing.

“The Flux Pack continues our movement toward a new kind of versatility and wearability-shoes that are accessible yet refined for city nomads who are constantly on the move taking in the world around them,” says Blaine Conrad, vice president of product at KEEN. “We’ve brought together trusted capability, premium materials and clean design to create structured silhouettes designed to go seven days a week.”
