Buy Teva Men's Churn Performance Water Shoe

Customer Ratings:

I live on Okinawa and I bought these to wear when I go snorkeling. It is often a long hike over sharp and or slippery coral and lava rock. These perform excellent in both conditions. The thick soles protect from sharp (and I mean really sharp) rocks, yet have great traction on slippery algae as well. They are also super light and swimming with them on is as close as you can get to bare feet. They also work great for keeping sand and pebbles out. I have walked thrugh soft sand and gravel and never had to remove them to rinse irritating rocks out. I ordered mine large enough to wear with socks and they are stylish enough for everyday wear. Bottom line these are the best, most versitile water shoes I have ever owned, or heard of. Worth every penny

Excellent shoes, but first the only con: for river shoes, they don't dry out as quickly as I expected. For the pros, I bought these shoes as an alternative to tennis shoes for long distance hiking, since hiking boots always bruise my ankles and give me blisters. To test them before taking them on the trail, I jogged a few days in them, up to 8 miles at a stretch, and was comfortable and didn't notice them--which is what I hope for in my shoes. Then, this Summer, I took them on two long hikes in the High Sierra, a total of 140 miles. They even scrambled an 11,000 foot peak. Because they're low-top and I had a 50 pound backpack, I wore ace-bandage style ankle supports between my socks and the shoes, and also always hike with trekking poles. They performed outstandingly well--no bruised ankles, only one minor blister on a 14-mile day with lots of downhill. It was nice to walk right through river fords and off down the trail. The soles gripped well on rock, and even did fine on snow crossings. And the shoes are easily put on and taken off. The seams held up well, though the outer webbing got a minor tear from a sharp stick (but this didn't affect performance at all). Next Summer I plan to hike the John Muir Trail in them. I would definitely recommend them to friends.

Best Deals on Teva Men's Churn Performance Water Shoe

I am a medicare aged male who has lived in Florida all my life, in and around fresh and salt water, fishing, swimming, boating and kayaking. For a number of years I used Teva sandals or some form of water boot, neither of which is ideal for all activities. I wear sandals in the surf for arch support. Saw a pair of the Teva Churn watershoes at a retailer and thought they would better support and protect my feet while performing these activities versus the open toed sandals. Wore them surf fishing for the first time last week and what a disaster. They immediately filled with sand and shell bits...so much so that every space in the shoes that didn't have flesh had this material. A large annoying blob of sand was under the arch making walking uncomfortable. Tiny shell bits came into the shoe, filled up pockets of the mesh on both sides of both shoes and small bits of shell stuck in the ridges of the soles. I finally took them off and traded them for my traditional sandals. The shoes do not dry well. I spent a half hour or more trying to get all the shell bits from every possible place in and on the shoes. I was not successful. They may be great in fresh or clear salt water or while on the power boat. However, they are not for the surf, period.

Honest reviews on Teva Men's Churn Performance Water Shoe

These are just super shoes for around the water, when you know that you are going to get your feet wet. I use them for kayaking. Previously I had used sandals, but had issues with gravel and little stones constantly getting stuck under the soles of my feet. No such problem with these. The shoes are comfortable, light, quick to dry, and quick to put on and take off.

I typically wear a size 12 (just about a perfect fit in nike shoes) and based on other reviews I ordered both a 12 and a 13 unfortunately the 12 was too small and the 13 was too big (no half sizes options for me). I ended up returning both pairs and going with the Soloman Geko in size 12 and have been really pleased with it. My wife ordered the women's version of the Teva Churn and it fit her well. Comparing the Teva Churn to the Soloman Geko in-use, the Teva is a slightly lighter shoe with a little more breathability than the Soloman, however the Teva also seems to hold water longer than the Soloman. The Teva generally stayed damp while wearing and had to sit out overnight to dry out; whereas the Soloman dried more while wearing and if wet in the morning was dry in the afternoon. The drying differences could be due to differences between my wife and I, but I figured I would give my experience since I find comparisons in reviews really helpful. Overall, this is a good shoe for the price.
