Teva Kids' Footwear

Frequently Asked Questions

• How should I size Teva kids' sandals for the best fit?

  Teva kids' styles generally run slightly large, so order your child's true size rather than sizing up; use the Teva kids' size chart and leave a little toe room for growth. The Universal Strapping System™ with multiple hook-and-loop straps lets you fine-tune fit and prevent heel or toe flop for active play.
• How does the Teva Original Universal sandal compare to the ReEMBER slip-on?

  The Original Universal features adjustable webbing straps and the Universal Strapping System™ for a secure, customizable fit ideal for watersports and multisport play, while the ReEMBER is a quilted slip-on with a soft microfiber lining built for easy on/off and everyday comfort. Both use EVA midsoles and rubber outsoles for cushioning and traction, but choose Original Universal for active water use and strap security and ReEMBER for quick, cozy wear.
• Are Teva kids' sandals suitable for water activities and how do they care for wet use?

  Yes, many Teva kids' sandals use quick-dry REPREVE® recycled polyester webbing and EVA foam midsoles with durable rubber outsoles, so they drain and dry quickly after water play. They’re machine-washable if you close all hook-and-loop straps first and avoid hot-water cycles; air-dry to preserve shape and materials.
• What sustainable materials and technologies are in Teva kids' footwear?

  Teva straps often incorporate REPREVE® recycled polyester (traceable via Unifi®) and many kids' styles are vegan with significant recycled content, highlighting the brand's eco focus. Construction also pairs lightweight EVA foam midsoles with durable rubber outsoles, and select styles include TevaRAPID RESIST for enhanced wear resistance.
• Which Teva kids' models are best for playgrounds, hiking, and mixed outdoor play?

  For mixed outdoor use and playgrounds, sport-style sandals like the Original Universal provide adjustable straps, secure fit, and rubber traction for varied terrain; pick sizes with a little growth room. For lighter camp or classroom wear, ReEMBER slip-ons offer easy on/off and cushioned comfort, while models with TevaRAPID RESIST are good when durability is a priority.
