#1 How do Teva sandals fit? 

Due to their velcro fastening, Teva work for everyone, whether you’ve got wide or narrow feet. They can come up a bit long, so if you’re in between sizes, round down and opt for the smaller size.  

Men’s

Women’s

 Toddlers

Kids’

For the best measurement to figure out your size: 

1. Draw a straight line, longer than your foot, on a piece of paper. 
2. Place the paper on a flat surface. Stand on the line with your heel and longest toe centered on the line. If measuring a child’s foot, it may be easier to hold the paper up to their foot. 
3. Place a mark on the line at the tip of the longest toe and at the back of the heel. 
4. Repeat steps 1-3 for the other foot. 
5. Measure the distance between the marks. Taking the larger of the two measurements, use the conversion chart to find your correct shoe size. 

#2 Are Teva Sandals comfortable? 

Short answer: yes. Teva sandals are crafted with years of experience and expertise, designed specifically to be comfortable and supportive. 

Way back in the 1980s, Teva created the original sports sandal with the original flip flop thong strap, noticing a gap in the market for shoes suitable for river activities. They quickly gained attention outside of sports circles as people caught onto their stylish fit and ease. Later in 1985, they introduced the universal strap, fastening around the ankle and footbone for increased comfort and style. This was when the Teva sandals we’ve come to love were born, and they haven’t changed since, keeping all the sports comfort but adapting it into a more fashion forward fit.  

#3 What are Teva sandals made of? 

Straps 

Teva sandal straps are made from 100% recycled plastic using traceable polyester yarn, meaning that your sandals save 4 plastic bottles from ending up in landfills. They’re also quick-drying and durable while still being gentle on your feet. 

Soles 

On the Universal Teva Sandals, the sole is made up of an inner sole which serves as a footbed, providing arch support and comfort to last all day. The outer sole is made of durable rubber to ensure your sandals last ages and have good grip to take you from city streets to hiking treks.
