The Women’s CSA Vista Energy XT (Carbon Toe) is a lightweight, abrasion-resistant work sneaker engineered specifically around a woman’s foot for all-day comfort and protection. Built with KEEN.ReGEN™ responsive cushioning, it delivers up to 50% energy return with every step, helping reduce fatigue during long shifts.

This 100% non-metallic safety shoe is ideal for secured environments, passing easily through metal detectors while still providing CSA Grade 1 toe and puncture-resistant underfoot protection. An abrasion-resistant synthetic upper, non-mutilating design, and oil- and slip-resistant rubber outsole keep you steady and professional on the job. With ESR (Electric Shock Resistant) properties and a PFAS-free water-repellent finish, the Vista Energy XT blends modern safety performance with environmental responsibility—making it a go-to choice for women who need athletic comfort in a compliant work shoe.
