Full details

The Teva Flatform Universal sandals are designed for adults seeking a blend of iconic, versatile style and a boost in height. These sandals feature durable, earth-friendly Unifi recycled polyester straps that offer a secure fit while contributing to sustainable manufacturing practices by reducing landfill plastic. While they provide excellent style and support for casual daily wear, users should note that the platform base requires a slight adjustment period if you are accustomed to completely flat footwear.

FAQs

Are these sandals waterproof?

While the polyester straps are water-resistant and durable, they are not intended for submerged use. Allow them to air dry thoroughly if they get wet.

How do I determine if the size is correct?

Your heel and toes should sit comfortably within the boundaries of the footbed. Use the adjustment straps to ensure your foot is centered.

Can I wear these for long walks?

Yes, they are designed for all-day comfort, though the platform sole has less flexibility than thin-soled sandals.

Are the materials sustainable?

Yes, the straps are made from Unifi recycled polyester, which repurposes plastic waste.

How do I clean the footbed?

Use a damp cloth and a mild soap to spot clean the footbed. Allow it to air dry fully.

Troubleshooting

Straps feel abrasive against skin

Ensure the straps are clean and free from grit or sand; if new, wear them for shorter periods initially to allow the material to soften.

Foot slipping within the sandal

Adjust the hook-and-loop closures at both the ankle and the forefoot to achieve a more snug, customized fit.

Difficulty walking on uneven terrain

The Flatform design is optimized for paved and flat surfaces; avoid hiking or trail use where a flatter, more flexible sole is preferable.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sustainable construction using recycled materials
  • Adjustable straps ensure a personalized fit
  • Adds height while maintaining stable footing
  • Versatile design suitable for various casual outfits
  • Durable materials designed for regular use

Cons

  • Platform sole may feel rigid to some users
  • Requires a break-in period for the footbed and straps
  • Heavier than standard flat-soled sandals

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best fit, open both the forefoot and ankle straps entirely before sliding your foot in. Adjust the ankle strap first to secure the heel, then tighten the forefoot strap for a secure but comfortable fit. These sandals are generally true to size for UK 8. For care, keep the polyester straps clean by wiping them down with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can compromise the adhesive and material integrity. Allow the sandals to air dry completely away from direct heat sources or prolonged sunlight to maintain the color and material quality.
