Size and fit

Teva Sanborn Sandal can be worn in wet and dry conditions

Equipped with a durable rubber outsole, this sandal can be worn in wet and dry conditions. It has a shallow lug profile that works well on hard surfaces, including concrete roads, hard-packed dirt, and rocks.

Enhanced grip and traction

The lugs are triangular in shape, facing different directions for enhanced grip and traction. Since the lug depth is pretty shallow, it may not be ideal for traversing trails with deep mud and loose dirt.

Offers awesome cushioning and shock absorption

Like most Teva sandals, the Sanborn has a midsole made of EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate). It's a special type of foam consisting of thousands of tiny bubbles joined together to hold air. EVA midsoles offer cushioning and shock absorption.
