Pardon me while I nerd out here for a second. Some of you know I play disc golf. I compete (poorly) against the pros. Yes, that’s a thing. Yes, I have friends that make a living playing frisbee disc golf.

I’ve been in the footwear business for some time (as a result of a connection I made through playing disc golf mind you) and recently, a group of my closest friends and I helped to design, wear test and name this shoe. This is the Keen Milo, designed/tested/named specifically for the sport of disc golf. It was released yesterday. My dear friend at Keen tells me the bulk of the stock will be in the warehouse and ready to ship by 11/20/09 though there are a few limited sizes available right now. It’s waterproof. It’s $110. It’s only available at KeenFootwear.com

That’s awesome. I will attempt to get a pair. How could I not?  I love my one pair of Keen shoes, I play disc golf (I compete [poorly] in the lower Amateur class), and my father’s name is Milo.

Congrats.

This allows me to throw money at my disc golf game rather than time. I dig that the color scheme is called Drizzle/Gargoyle.

Cool backstory.
