The sandal that invented a category, now in its most refined and most fashion-forward silhouette — the Teva Women’s Original Universal Slim Sport Sandal is Teva’s slimmer-strap, more elegantly proportioned version of the iconic Original Universal, available in six distinctly feminine colorways — Black, Teal Yellow, Smoke Kingfisher, Arrowwood Rose, Arrowwood White, and Empire Mauve Rose — in US women’s sizes 5 to 11. From Teva — the brand born in 1984 when Grand Canyon river guide Mark Thatcher invented the world’s first sport sandal on the banks of the Colorado River — the Original Universal Slim brings the same legendary adjustable-strap comfort and outdoor performance of the Original Universal to a slimmer, more refined webbing strap that delivers the most elegantly proportioned and most fashion-forward Teva silhouette in the collection. The Slim is the Teva sandal for the woman who wants the full Original Universal experience — the iconic strapping system, the Shoc Pad cushioning, the quick-dry webbing, the 40-year outdoor heritage — in a narrower, more delicately scaled strap that sits more lightly on the foot and pairs more effortlessly with every warm-weather outfit.
Key Features:
Slim webbing strap construction — the Original Universal Slim’s most defining feature: narrower, more refined webbing straps that deliver a more elegantly proportioned and more fashion-forward silhouette than the standard Original Universal — the slimmer strap that sits more lightly on the foot, creates a more delicate visual line, and pairs more effortlessly with dresses, skirts, and every warm-weather occasion outfit in the collection
Teva’s iconic Universal strapping system — Teva’s signature four-point adjustable strap system that wraps around the foot and ankle for a secure, personalized fit across every terrain and every activity level — the same legendary strapping system as the Original Universal, now in a slimmer, more refined strap profile
Shoc Pad™ heel cushioning — Teva’s signature heel cushioning technology delivers impact-absorbing comfort with every step, making the Original Universal Slim the most comfortable slim-strap sport sandal for extended wear across every surface from beach boardwalks to city sidewalks
Six fashion-forward colorways — the most feminine and most fashion-forward colorway lineup of any Teva sandal in the collection: Black (the most universally versatile and most wardrobe-complete colorway), Teal Yellow (a boldly vibrant cool-warm contrast), Smoke Kingfisher (a cool, sophisticated blue-grey), Arrowwood Rose (a warm, floral-inspired palette of earthy warmth and soft rose), Arrowwood White (a warm, clean neutral), and Empire Mauve Rose (a dusty, softly feminine mauve-rose — the most romantically feminine colorway of any Teva sandal in the collection)
Quick-dry webbing straps — Teva’s signature quick-dry webbing dries rapidly after water exposure, making the Original Universal Slim the most water-ready and most adventure-versatile slim-strap sport sandal in the collection
US women’s sizes 5–11 — the only Teva sandal in the collection starting at US size 5 — making the Original Universal Slim the most petite-inclusive Teva sport sandal available, covering US 5 through US 11 for the most comprehensive small-to-medium women’s size range of any Teva listing in the catalog
