Product Information

Full details

The Teva Original Universal Walking Sandals are designed for women seeking versatile, comfortable footwear for everyday summer wear. Their key benefit lies in their durable, low-maintenance construction combined with a secure, adjustable fit. A potential caveat is their suitability primarily for casual activities rather than strenuous hiking. These sandals feature a polyester upper, textile lining, and a rubber/EVA sole, offering lasting wear and reliable grip. The touch-fastened ankle strap ensures an adjustable and secure fit, while the open-toe design promotes breathability. Key features include their ankle strap design, polyester and textile materials, touch closure, and a flat, stable heel.

FAQs

Are these sandals suitable for hiking?

The Teva Original Universal sandals are designed for casual everyday wear and light activities. They are not intended for rigorous hiking or challenging terrain, as they lack the specialized support and protection required for such uses.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the size guide provided by the manufacturer. For this model, the UK size is indicated (e.g., UK 5). Measure your foot length if unsure and compare it to the brand's sizing chart.

Can I wear these sandals in water?

Yes, the polyester upper and durable sole are suitable for getting wet. However, ensure they are properly air-dried afterward to maintain material integrity and prevent odor.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is made from 100% Polyester, chosen for its durability and low-maintenance properties.

How should I clean the sandals?

Clean the upper and lining with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Rinse the sole and air dry the sandals away from direct heat. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.

What is the heel type?

These sandals feature a flat heel, providing a stable and grounded feel.

Troubleshooting

Sandals feel too loose or too tight

Adjust the touch-fastened ankle strap. Ensure the strap is securely fastened for a snug fit without being restrictive.

Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces

The Rubber/EVA sole provides grip, but caution is advised on very slick, wet surfaces. Ensure the soles are clean and free from debris for best traction.

Discomfort after extended wear

Re-adjust the ankle strap for a better fit. Ensure your feet are clean and dry before wearing. If discomfort persists, consider if the sandal's profile suits your foot shape.

Strap adhesion is weakening

Clean both sides of the touch-fastener by brushing away any lint, dirt, or debris. Ensure the straps are completely dry before fastening.
