KEEN and New York fashion label Collina Strada bring a little fantasy to outdoor footwear. First previewed during New York Fashion Week in February, their Fall/Winter 2026 collaboration transforms two familiar KEEN silhouettes into expressive design that blur the line between hiking gear and fashion. The limited-edition collection includes the Targhee EXP Collina Strada boot and Jasper Rocks Collina Strada sneaker, both reworked through designer Hillary Taymour’s playfuk, environmentally conscious approach.
Taymour built the collection around transformation, imagining how practical footwear could become something more sculptural and feminine without losing its original purpose. Satin-like uppers, lace accents, embroidered eyelets and unexpected floral elements bring a Victorian-inspired feel to KEEN’s rugged designs, while the playful patterns introduce a punk edge.
Flowers Meet Function
The Targhee EXP Collina Strada boot makes the biggest statement. Priced at $270, it pairs a satin-like vegan upper with a handmade, oversized rosette that gives the hiking silhouette a softer, more dramatic finish. A medial side zip makes it easy to put on, while a heel-capture system provides stability across varied terrain.
The Jasper Rocks Collina Strada sneaker that a more compact approach, retailing for $200. Its translucent rubber outsole wraps around the base with a climbing-inspired look, while a removable handmade flower adds a playful finishing touch. Both designs feature 100% recycled lining and KEEN’s Eco Anti-Odor technology, which uses natural probiotics for odour control.
A More Expressive Kind of Outdoor Footwear
Collina Strada also brings a experimental, environmentally minded perspective to KEEN’s performance-focused footwear.
The KEEN x Collina Strada Fall 2026 collaboration launches globally on 15 October 2026 in women’s sizing through KEEN, Collina Strada and selected retailers worldwide.
