Shoe Review: Teva Churn for Travel
Say hello to the Teva Churn.
While Churn may look like just your average, every day sneaker, this couldn't be further from the truth. The comfy Churn shoe for women and men is ready for action on all your travel adventures this summer weather you're rafting the Colorado River, gallavanting about Costa Rica or spending the weekend car camping.
The first thing you might notice about the Churn is all that mesh. What is all that mesh doing there? The clever designers over at Teva use this for breathability on land, draining squelchy water from your shoes and getting your toes dry as fast as the can. Bonus! This mesh actually keeps sand from entering your shoe. Mud puddles on the other hand, you might need to watch out for.
For the airport savy, you'll want to take note of the unique transtioning feature of the Churn. In one quick swoop of the heel you go from full-coverage sneaker to easy on/off slide. Delight as you glide past security and those stuggling to put on their shoes while deperately clinging to their jacket, bag, laptop, bag of liquids and whatever else overpackers feel the need to have with them. Revel in its compact, lightweight easy-to-pack form, should you opt for a dressier look while traveling.
Not to be forgotten, the sole of this shoe stands out on a variety of surfaces. While not recommended for heavy hiking, this is a great light trekking shoe for walking cobblestones or jungle trails. Should you run into a stream crossing, beckoning lake, or the occasional deep puddle, don't fret about traction; The Churn sticks like glue to wet rocks.
If you're looking for comfortable shoes to get you around the world or your own backyard this summer, look no further than the Teva Churn.
