Teva Sunkosi 2 water shoe
Jun 15, 2009
As a concept, water shoes are a fine idea. But we've suffered painful scrapes and blisters from poorly designed amphibious footwear, and frowned over many models that didn't dry as quickly as advertised. But Teva's Sunkosi 2 performed well, and proved to be exceptionally comfortable during numerous paddling trips, including an 18-day rafting journey down the Grand Canyon. Our testers said these shoes were not only easy on the feet, but they were also some of the most durable water shoes they've worn.

Mar 30, 2009
Our testers covered a wide variety of terrain in the Caravan, from all-day walks on city sidewalks, long waits in airports and day hikes on dirt trails and wet, grassy fields. They were even put to the test on the muddy shoulder of a road as one unfortunate tester changed a flat tire. (Hey, you never know what curve-balls will be thrown at you when traveling.) In each case, the shoes excelled by offering great support—especially considering the fact that they’re lightweight.
