Hey guys, I'm Alastair from Trail and Kale, and this is my Teva AvenTrail review. Today I have an interesting blend of a sandal and a trail running shoe. The Teva AvenTrail is the first trail running product from Teva, combining the airiness of a sandal with the performance of a trail running shoe. I had the pleasure of being one of the first testers for this unique shoe, and I’m excited to share my thoughts and performance review. Let’s see if they’re worth the $145 price tag!

Let me know if you have run in sandals before - what did you think?? :) -Alastair

[@sprintercampervans]

I haven’t but they do look quite fun to try!

[@W1ldt1m]

I love running in sandals. I prefer minimalist ones though.

[@trailandkale]

@W1ldt1m which ones do you run in?

[@trailandkale]

Do it!

[@W1ldt1m]

@@trailandkale I’ve run in Xero Z-trail, and Luna Monos

[@Pipppetto]

The heaven of getting dirt and gravel between your feet and insoles... Unless you cross rivers very often they're IMHO a total (expensive) nonsense.

[@trailandkale]

It depends what type of trails you run them on.

[@helend2820]

They look like they’d be great for travel as well as running and hiking. Do they dry quickly if they do get wet?

[@trailandkale]

They do! The knit upper drys quickly

[@noah1798]

Id break a toe first time no doubt! I trip up at least once on an any given trail run.

[@trailandkale]

😄 maybe give sandals a miss then

[@davidzlotnick1899]

Thank you for the review
How do you feel they would handle the road?
I run in very hot and humid climate and these look super interesting
Thanks

[@trailandkale]

Quite a few of us agreed they perform really well on the roads. We had quite a long road section to get back to our finish point and the cushioning makes it a pleasure!

[@kgenest100]

I'd be concerned about having my feet super dirty or sunburned...Not a bad idea... but I will pass. I am not much of a sandal person. I am sure people will buy it just for the comfort and cool looks...

[@trailandkale]

Yeah that’s a good point about the sunburnt feet. I wonder if feet are less likely to get sunburnt than the rest of the body. Does anyone know? Is that a thing? lol
