For the record, this is my favorite Sandal.  I've been wearing them for many years.  I find them to be very durable, comfortable and overall I like the style.

One thing you may not know is the word Teva comes from the Hebrew word for 'nature'.  Fitting as that's what these shoes are made for.. not to be worn just indoors or to social events, but they are designed for those of us that are active and like being out in nature!  This type of sandal is referred to as a Sports Sandal.

Mark Thatcher was the inventor of Teva sandals and is now overseen by Deckers Outdoor Corporation. 

Back in the early 1980s Mark was a rafting guide and noticed there weren't very good sandals available for river type activities.  Nylon ankle straps and a thong-style sandal is what he invented and eventually patented. 

Over the years they improved on the original design until they got what we have today.

Features

Again, these Sandals were made for those who are active and outdoorsy.

• They are very durable withstanding the riggers of many outdoor activities including those that involve water (rivers and lakes).
• They are very comfortable... and one of my favorite features is the ability to adjust all the straps (toe, heel and side straps) to perfectly fit your feet!
• They have a nice variety of styles and colors for Men and Women.
• There is an inner sole which is soft and where your feet rest nicely.  You'll find it has a well designed arche and include microbian zinc (a technology that prevents odor and helps kill bacteria).
• The outer sole is hard and rigid which enables a good grip on wet surfaces.

You can see a lot goes into the design of this shoe; that's why I believe it's the king of the Sports Sandals.
