Originating from the rugged terrains of the Grand Canyon, TEVA, the iconic outdoor footwear brand, is enhancing its presence in the Philippines with a fresh range of styles tailored for adventure-seekers.

What started as a clever solution—when a river guide used Velcro watch straps on old flip-flops to create the world’s first sport sandal—has grown into a globally recognized brand, renowned for its unique combination of fashion and functionality.




TEVA is now introducing its latest collections in the Philippines, designed to cater to a variety of explorers. Among the highlights are the Lifestyle Sandal Voya Infinity for women and the Performance Sandals Omnium 2 Leather, available for both men and women, crafted to support adventurers through any journey.



The Voya Infinity is ideal for day-long wear, from urban walks to festival outings. It features TEVA's Mush™ topsole for custom comfort, a feminine infinity upper with stretchy elastic lace, and leather accents. The lightweight EVA-foam outsole and Life Natural anti-odor treatment ensure durability and freshness.



For more intense outings like hikes or water adventures, the Omnium 2 sandals blend style and performance. Made with a premium leather upper and Spider Rubber outsole for superior grip on wet surfaces, they also feature bungee cord laces, adjustable ankle straps, and a cushioned Shoc Pad™ for impact absorption.




TEVA's bestselling Hurricane XLT2 sandals, known for their grip and comfort, and the water-friendly Hydratrek sandals for men are also available, offering innovative traction for wet conditions.



Celebrating 40 years of adventure, TEVA has revived iconic strap designs from its '90s collections, updating them for today’s explorers. The anniversary line includes the Hurricane XLT2 Revive, the Original Universal Revive, and the Original Alp Revive, with options for both men and women.



These latest styles can now be found at TEVA’s new stores in Gateway Mall 2 and Greenhills Mall.
