Teva Not-Quite-Sandals

Equipmment For Around The World Trip Is Being Assembled
The last week has been a blur of details and choices, exchanges and re-thinking on what to bring on a long-distance bicycle trip. Luckily for me there are online journals with dozens of equipment lists so I can see what others have done.



I have tried on numerous types and brands of tennis shoe in the past week, bought three, returned three. Three strikes and
you are out, right?
These Teva shoes are very light, have ventilation holes, and I have been wearing them all week and forget they are on me. Originally I bought them just to relax around camp. I tried regular sandals but my daughter Lexi convinced me that other campers should not be subjected to the horrible sight of my bare feet right at dinner time. Sadly, she is correct.
(As for the holes in the Tevas Rob Sweetgall has walked around the USA twice and always slits his Rockport tennis along the side to air them out in the heat, even in the winter.)
I am considering wearing these shoes while biking. (Bike tech-geeks gasping everywhere, I hear you!) I may wear them with an arch insert and good light wool socks to wick moisture away. What do you think, orthopedic gurus and Lance Armstong wannabes?

REI Hiking Boots



A pretty penny they were, though only mid-range, but they feel great on my feet. I figure to do some hiking and even though they are heavy I hope I can tote them along. We shall see. I'm hoping to walk a bit in the United Kingdom, the Swiss Alps, and to trek in Nepal, so good boots are a requirement.
The folks at REI are excellent and full of knowledge, though when Bob the Boot Expert looks you in the eye and asks what kind of sock you are wearing, as "the sock is as important as the boot", it can be intimidating. Especially when you have on Wal-Mart cotton cheapies.

Headlamp



Wow! Four little LED lights can be really bright. Bright enough to dig through panniers for that pesky stove to package up to send home! Bright enough to temporarily blind and constantly annoy Lexi from across the room!

Ah my daughter Lexi, she left tonight for Miami and Disney World! Have fun my girl. We are planning to meet in New York City soon enough to see 'The Little Mermaid' on Broadway and some of the museums and sights in the Big Apple.

The evolution of Teva

The evolution of Teva began with an unassuming Grand Canyon River Guide named Mark Thatcher and an idea that would spark the birth of an industry. Mark grew up hiking the Grand Canyon with his father and has always felt an undeniable attraction to the Colorado River. During his college days in the '70s, Mark worked as a boatman on the Colorado. From Crystal to Lava Falls, Mark learned each set of rapids like the back of his hand. He felt he was born to run the river and found great peace in its timeless rhythms. On countless river trips it happened, clients wearing water-logged sneakers would be envious of the flip-flops worn by the boaters at that time. However, while the flip-flops were quick drying, they were too flimsy for the rugged terrain of the Canyon. A solution was needed. Mark realized the boaters enjoyed the freedom and comfort of their choice in footwear but it's lack of support and stability was not ideal. With this knowledge and his own experience on the river, he developed the first prototype in 1984. The sport sandal was born - better yet, it worked! The first pairs were sold out of the back of Mark's van to friends and fellow boaters at the various put-ins along the river. He started to call his new business Teva (pronounced "teh'-vah") which in Hebrew means Nature. However, with demand growing everyday, Mark was no longer able to keep up with production. In 1985, Mark introduced the sport sandal to Deckers Outdoor Corporation, starting a successful long term relationship that would carry Teva from the canyon, to the trails and the adventures beyond. Since the inception over 20 years ago, Teva remains committed to both innovation in footwear and the protection of waterways around the world.

Victoria Beckham boots in 2009

Celebrity Victoria Beckham is known for her style and her choice of shoes. This year, her choice in footwear is boots. Victoria Beckham boots in 2009 are some of the hottest topics in fashion today. Just recently the celebrity was spotted in Milan wearing beautiful black boots by Christian Louboutin . These very high, very stylish boots may not be that suitable for long walks, but they certainly made Victoria look hot.

If you are interested in getting your hands on your own Victoria Beckham boots in 2009, you can. If you can afford it, you can purchase the same boots she was wearing in Milan. However, if you do not have that kind of budget, there are many new boots being released now that mimic the style. Many of these new boots are much more affordable as well.

Stylish Thongs and Flats- Get More Style Out of Your Most Casual Shoes


Women's Shoes

Shoes. We probably all have that friend that is a true fashionista but, lets be honest, most of us are not. Many women, and especially new moms, seem to fit into 1 of 2 fashion camps- the 'I like fashion but who has the time, money or energy to update my style' or 'you think your worn out tennis shoes and sporty sandals from 1995 are still working well'.

Well, we want to do the work for you and bring you stylish finds that you can afford and look good in.
We know life is busy and most of us don't have much time to go shopping for shoes. We do not believe in being slaves to the latest fashion trends, but we do look for clothing, shoes and accessories that are stylish and encompass our womanhood.

Some items are a bit trendy, which is great, but if they aren't then they are modern pieces that can work for several seasons. We pick shoes because they are either sexy, stylish or classic.

We also choose pieces that won't break the bank because nowadays who has the money to spurge on expensive shoes? Not most of us.

We hope you enjoy our selections of shoes for Real Women and Moms.

Shoes for Water Sports

If you like to canoe, kayak, or engage in other fun water-based sports, investing in a good pair of sport sandals or water shoes is a great way to keep your feet comfortable, avoid the pain of stepping on rocks with bare feet, and most importantly, keep your shoes from floating away. A pair of flip flops can be dangerous - they can get stuck in the rocks, make you trip, and leave you shoeless when they flip off and float down the river. Sport and water shoes are also great for the beach (you can easily rinse out the sand), water parks, and at home doing things like washing the car. Teva brand sport shoes are a favorite of campers - they are made to get wet and they are very comfortable.

water-sports-shoes

Most outdoor enthusiasts own Teva shoes . Teva makes quality shoes for men in trail running, sport sandals, adventure, casual, water, and flip flop styles. Teva began as a company seeking durable, water-proof shoes for rafting. Tevas are great when you need a comfortable, waterproof shoe that will work on slippery rocks and stay on your feet.
