Teva went all out in making the soles for the Tirra. Most other manufacturers would make designs that do have comfortable soles, but what happens is that your feet sweat and are absorbed by the cushioning material on the insole, which stays and often causes a stink that is hard to get out. This is not the case with the Tirra, however, which has a zinc-based anti-microbial technology in the sole that prevents the accumulation of odor-causing bacteria. They also infused the heels of the insole with nylon which protects from shock. The rest of the insole is made from compression-molded EVA for max comfort.

These sandals also have multiple straps to anchor your feet to make sure your feet aren't slipping out of them on your walks. No part is made of leather, so they are 100% vegan. The textile that makes the straps are not coarse, and they also latch onto each other easily for easy slipping on and off.

The cost of the Tirra mostly depends on the color and type that you choose, but they are a bit more pricey than similar styles. The money you pay for these is worth it for how functional they are, with the zinc-based stink preventers and the way the soles are built.
