Teva Footwear

Teva

Founded in 1984, Teva® began with an unassuming Grand Canyon River Guide and an idea that would become the world's very first sports sandal.

The first pairs of Teva® footwear were sold out of a van to friends and fellow boaters at the various put-ins along the river. Coupling the freedom of a flip-flop with the security of an ankle strap, the "Original" was an instant hit and quickly became the shoe of choice within the guide community. As a commitment to their heritage on the Grand Canyon, you can still find styles like the Original, the Ultimate Thong and the Universal Buckle within the Teva® collection today.

From this beginning a culture of passion for the outdoors has defined the Teva® lifestyle. The name Teva®, pronounced "teh'-vah", comes from a Hebrew word meaning nature. The hand in their logo is derived from the symbolic language of the Hopi people. When translated, the hand is a symbol for friendship and the spiral a symbol for water giving them their creed: "friendship with water."

Moving into the next 25 years, Teva® remains committed to both the innovation in footwear suited for the outdoor lifestyle and the protection of the earth's waterways.
