Teva’s sandals were created by a river guide in the Grand Canyon, who cleverly strapped Velcro watchbands to a pair of flip-flops to prevent them from floating away. They’ve been a staple for camping and kayaking since, thanks to the cushioned, quick-drying material that’s more secure but just as breathable as flip-flops. The straps are adjustable for a comfortable fit, while the outsoles feature a grippy diamond tread for secure traction. Plus, the straps are made from 100% recycled plastic.
Shoppers appreciated their comfort and utility, with one calling them, “comfortable, stylish, rugged, and adventure-ready!” adding, “Their first adventure was exploring mines, and they did great on the loose, rugged, rocky terrain.” Another called them a “great camp shoe,” writing, “Been looking for a lightweight, durable camp shoe after a long day of backpacking. This fits the bill perfectly and can be worn with socks for cold evenings.”
Another shopper wrote, “These are fantastic and have become my go-to shoe for pretty much everything. They’re soft and supple — you could bend them in half if you want so they’re more for walking around flat ground than hiking. I took them rappelling this weekend and they did great sticking to the rough rock."
Whether you need a warm weather sandal for beach days, or you’re looking for a durable shoe for kayaking and campsite hangs, Teva’s Original Sandal is an iconic design. For less than $40, it’s a great everyday shoe that you’re unlikely to take off for the next few months, so act fast.
