Mark Thatcher was the inventor of Teva sandals. While working as a rafting guide in 1982 he noticed the lack of proper shoes for river activities. Sneakers would become heavy when wet and would take days to dry and thongs would slide off feet very easily.,

braided bracelets, found a manufacturer and began selling the "amphibious utility sandals" by himself,
small stud earrings, selling only 200 pairs the first year. Although it was an effective piece of watersports footwear,
