In 1984, a young Grand Canyon river guide revolutionized the footwear industry when he created the world's first sports sandal. This idea soon spawned a brand, and the new adventure of Teva® was born.

It's been 25 years since TEVA took their first step into the Grand Canyon, and not a moment has gone by that Teva® (that's "teh'-vah," not "tee-vah") hasn't been hard at work developing products that enable and encourage your adventure. Of course, given TEVA's heritage, they have an obsession with water, and TEVA's passion lies in identifying and enhancing the areas in which water effects an adventure. To TEVA, water presents a paradox. It is the source of a year-round playground, but it simultaneously poses a year-round problem. Anyone who has ever slipped on a patch of ice or been forced to deal with soaking wet socks can attest to this duality.

Essentially, Teva® has two fundamental responsibilities: to play and to protect. TEVA play in the water, but also see the need to be protected from it. TEVA's responsibility is to manage this delicate balance, so you can go forth without reservation. Armed with a quarter-century worth of knowledge and technology, TEVA are dedicated to developing products that strike this balance to deliver the most out of your adventures.
