【Teva】Inspired by "the tree frog"!? Water sandals that can run by the water.

Teva's new water sandal "Hydratrek" series is an innovative footwear inspired by the foot structure of the tree frog. It uses a unique outsole that offers incredible grip on wet surfaces, allowing for seamless movement from underwater to land. Move around the waterside freely like a tree frog.

A brand that started from the waterside releases technology that returns to its origins

In 1984, "Teva" developed the world's first sports sandal. Its history has always been intertwined with waterside fields. The "Hydratrek" series, which we focus on this time, is truly an ambitious work that reinterprets the brand's identity with modern technology. The passion to make activities by the water more free and safe is condensed into this one pair.

For those who spend active weekends camping, playing by the river, or strolling by the seaside, stability at their feet is an important factor that affects the quality of their journeys. This new lineup suggested by Teva embodies urban design while also boasting professional specifications that demonstrate true value in tough fields.

The biggest topic regarding these sandals is the design of the outsole, which incorporates a technique called biomimicry. The inspiration came from the feet of tree frogs that can move freely over vertical glass surfaces and wet leaves, even in the rain. By applying the fine structures found on the soles of frogs to the tread pattern, we achieved a traction that feels like it grips even in unstable environments such as wet rocks and underwater.

A lineup that balances the安心感 of protecting the toes and the開放感 of freedom

This series is composed of a variety of models that can be chosen according to needs and preferences. Notably, the closed-toe (CT) model "Hydratrek Sandal CT" protects the toes from unseen rocks and obstacles in the water, allowing for more aggressive activities. On the other hand, the classic strap-shaped "Hydratrek Sandal" offers overwhelming openness and a light wearing feel.

The upper webbing is made from a quick-drying recycled plastic material, reflecting our consideration for the environment. It dries quickly even when wet, maintaining comfort, which is a significant advantage for a travel style that involves moving repeatedly between activities. The urban, sophisticated silhouette is also attractive due to its high versatility, seamlessly connecting from the water's edge to city walks.
