Teva Elden Trail

As Design Manager for Teva, my first challenge was to convince the loyal sandal consumer that we were a viable source for trail running and hiking product.

My design for the Elden trail runner was the first closed toe trail running shoe to be successful for TEVA and launched them into closed footwear.

I used a webbing system to lock your foot into place and pay homage to the heritage of the original Teva sandal.
