Product Information
Full details
The Teva ApreAqua Drift sandals are designed for adults seeking durable, comfortable footwear for water-based activities and general outdoor adventures. Their key benefit lies in their lightweight, floatable construction and secure, quick-drying design, making them ideal for swimming holes and wet environments. A potential caveat is that while they offer good traction, they are primarily designed for water and wet surfaces, not for highly technical or rugged terrain.

FAQs
Can I wear these sandals for hiking?
The Teva ApreAqua Drift sandals are best suited for water activities and casual wear. While they have some traction, they are not designed for rugged or technical hiking trails and may not provide adequate protection or support.
Do these sandals float if they come off in the water?
Yes, they are constructed with a buoyant EVA material designed to float, making them ideal for swimming holes and water sports.
How should I clean these sandals?
Rinse with fresh water after use and wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Air dry completely away from direct heat.
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The adjustable hook and loop straps allow for a customizable fit, which can accommodate a range of foot widths. However, individual fit may vary.
What is the main advantage of the EVA construction?
The injection-molded EVA construction makes the sandals lightweight, durable, comfortable, and crucially, floatable.
Will the straps stay secure in the water?
Yes, the FuseLock™ hook and loop technology is designed for a secure and durable fastening that aims to stay in place, even when wet.
Can I wear these with socks?
While possible, these sandals are designed to be worn barefoot for optimal performance in water and quick drying. Wearing them with socks may affect the fit and drying time.
Troubleshooting
Straps feel loose after adjustment.
Ensure the FuseLock™ hook and loop surfaces are clean and free of debris. Re-apply the strap firmly, pressing down to ensure a secure adhesion.
Sandals feel slippery on certain surfaces.
The rubber pods provide enhanced traction, but performance can vary on exceptionally smooth or polished surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean. For maximum grip, always exercise caution on unfamiliar terrain.
Discomfort after extended wear.
Adjust the straps for a less constrictive fit. Ensure the correct size has been selected. If the discomfort persists, consider if the sandal's profile is suited to your specific foot shape and needs.
Sandals retain water after use.
The open-toe design promotes drainage. Ensure the sandals are fully submerged briefly to clear any blockages, and allow ample time for air drying in a well-ventilated area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Teva ApreAqua Drift sandals require no assembly. Simply adjust the hook and loop straps to achieve a secure and comfortable fit for each foot.
Compatibility: These sandals are designed for adult use and are compatible with various foot sizes. They are ideal for use in water, at the beach, poolside, or for general casual wear in warm weather. They are not intended for technical hiking or environments requiring heavy-duty protection.
