Comfortable footbed of the Teva Langdon
The wearers are delighted with the sandal's soft and cushiony underfoot comfort. They are also pleased that it comes with a little bit of arch support - just sufficient to keep you going longer.
The wearers who have taken this sandal on their trips to South America, Caribbean islands, and Asia were impressed with how the upper remained comfortable in the heat, humidity, and rain.
The Teva Langdon Sandal employs a molded ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) footbed. This material offers lightweight cushioning and arch support. A nylon shank that provides stability and promotes support on bumpy terrain is also added.
Well-fitting upper
Based on the wearers' feedback, the sandal has a well-judged strap system. This makes it feel nice and form-fitting straight from the box. No breaking-in is necessary. "Padded heel strap makes a big difference," says one of the reviewers.
The only downfall of the upper is the top instep strap. It appeared to be too short for people with high arches, neuropathy, and other conditions which require a more forgiving fit.
A soft mesh lining is added underneath the straps, amplifying its comfortable feel. Additionally, it has three adjustable hook-and-loop straps which allow you to really fine-tune the fit.

This Teva hiking sandal uses durable leather for its upper and a heavy-duty rubber for its outsole.
