TEVA
Strap in to freedom
TYF Partnership
Purpose
Strap in to freedom
About
Teva was invented in 1984 by a rafting guide when he noticed the lack of proper shoes for river activities. Trainers were to heavy and flip flops would slide off his feet. The first prototype was a nylon ankle strap attached to an old pair of flip flops. 30 years later their shoes have come along way. They are durable, comfortable and very versatile footwear perfect for your next adventure.
