And now for something complete different. If you are cycling in a hot climate for a long time, having the wind between your toes can make all the difference in terms of comfort.
The Keen Commuter III Women’s Cycling Sandals give you the advantages of an SPD shoe, with the breezy benefits of a sandal. The footbed is treated with an antimicrobial agent to keep things whiff-free.
