Hikers 'should wear Teva sandals to prepare for hikes'

Hikers should wear special sandals to toughen up their feet in preparation of a long trip, it has been claimed.

According to Tom Stienstra, the outdoors correspondent with the San Francisco Chronicle, Teva sandals' texture sole actually helps to form calluses on the balls and heels of your feet - leaving them in a perfect state for the rigours of hiking.

Mr Stienstra also endorsed keeping your heart rate at about halfway between the high and low rates of your aerobic limit and scanning maps and guidebooks to prepare your mind for the trip.

Fitness Footwear sells an extensive range of Teva sandals including the Teva Dozen - Bracken, Teva Karnali Wraptor and Teva Hurricane models.

Since forming the company formed 20 years ago, Teva has introduced a number of innovations to its sandals including shock absorbing technology and quick-release instep straps.
