I love these sandals! Very comfortable and true to size. Nice details that add a touch of class, they're definitely a cut above your run-of-the-mill sandals. I don't like super flat sandals, so the one-inch heel looks more attractive. Very well constructed - these should last for years.

I got these sandals in black and love the way they look. My usual size feels a little more loose than normal, but I've decided to keep them anyway. They look like they're adjustable, but are not.

These are very cute and comfortable. The leather does stretch out after a little while so they get a big loose. There is the option to adjust the little strap but when you do, the leather underneath it bunches up.

Love these shoes, so comfortable. I bought them in black first and then bought them in brown because they were so comfy. True to size.

Love these Tevas! The first pair I ordered were too small, so I sent them back and ordered another pair a half size larger than I usually wear. They are perfect for casual wear as well as a well as a something a little dressier.

Additional Brand Information

Click here to view episodes of The Naturist.

Teva and Zappos have partnered together to launch The Naturist, a new online web series, starring Gavin McInnes. The Naturist is often called an outdoor expert. We completely agree... he is an expert at what not to do while outdoors. Fortunately, he has one thing going for him, the new Teva© Riva. Thanks to features like an aggressive lug design and a waterproof and breathable membrane, The Naturist can be sure that even when everything else goes wrong, his feet will still be comfortable and protected.

Founded in 1984, Teva began with an unassuming Grand Canyon River Guide and an idea that would become the world's very first Sports Sandal.

The first pairs of Teva footwear were sold out of a van to friends and fellow boaters at the various put-ins along the river. Coupling the freedom of a flip-flop with the security of an ankle strap, the "Original" was an instant hit and quickly became the shoe of choice within the guide community.

From this beginning a culture of passion for outdoor adventure has defined the Teva lifestyle. The name Teva, pronounced "Teh'-vah", comes from a Hebrew word meaning nature and the hand in the logo is derived from the symbolic language of the Hopi people. When translated, the hand is a symbol for friendship and the spiral a symbol for water, giving Teva their creed: "friendship with water."

Moving into the next 25 years, Teva remains committed to both the innovation in footwear suited for the adventurous lifestyle and the protection of the earth's waterways.

Excellent product, these sandals are perfect. Saw them elsewhere locally, but never in my size. Zappos had them for less, and mailed right to my door! Great service-

Shoe Size: Felt a half size smaller than marked Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Shoe Width: Felt true to width
I like the look of the shoe but the straps chafe my foot. I bought these because love the look. I find the cork sole to be super comfortable but after 15 to 20 minutes of walking, I find the straps irritate the tops of my feet. I will have to work them in gradually.

My first pair of Teva and I\'m very impressed. I have trouble finding sandals wide enough at front of foot so toes don\'t overhang - these fit great. Only problem is one buckle started to rub after wearing all day. Not sure I\'d wear to do a lot of walking but for normal day they\'re great. And what can I say about Zappos - unbelievable service as usual. I am *such* a fan.

Very light weight. Felt like they were broken in the moment I put them on. Very comfortable. I will buy another pair in a different color.

I wore these shoes right out of the box for an entire day. I hosted a large party and was on my feet for 12 hours and my feet felt great. I'm 64 and have arthritis. I couldn't be more pleased.

Reviewer: from Hartford
Overall: (3 Stars) Comfort: (4 Stars) Style: (5 Stars)
Wanted these to work, but couldn’t get a good fit. I am a 9.5 in most street shoes, but usually take a 9 in most sandals. In this case, the 9 was too narrow and the 9.5 was too long and loose. The strap seems to press against my skin when I walk, as well. Something about the length of the strap wasn’t right for me. Also, the buckle is purely decorative. It doesn’t change the way the shoe fits at all. Usually I have good luck with Tevas, but not this time! Back they go. Too bad b/c they are really cute.

I love these shoes! I bought them in black and then went back and bought them in brown too. I live in a warm climate and could be in flip flops 350 days of the year, but that is not so great for my feet and lower back. However, these Tevas have me back in my flip flops a lot more. They are supportive, comfy right out of the box, and super cute. I love them!

I LOVE my Tevas...And I'm a first time Teva fan! I bought the Ventura - wear around 7.5 to an 8, love the 7.5...fits my foot great! These are my GO-TO sandals! I have an average width foot, but a very high arch. I feel the support and comfort is outstanding. Loved these Tevas so much I just bought another pair!

Cork bed is comfortable but there is no support for my foot. My foot slipped all over.

Ventura not an ace! The shoe is very nice to look at and the straps are comfortable, however the foot bed is strange for walking on. The stitching is raised as are the edges of the leather. I have very sensitive feet so I notice things like this a lot more than others. I will continue to wear them, but probably not for long periods of time.

Comfy and cute - Comfy, cute, everyday thong sandal for summer. The straps don't rub and it's surprisingly cushiony to walk in.

Shoe Size: Felt a half size larger than marked Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Shoe Width: Felt wider than marked
A bit disappointed... Loved the look, but even with the adjustability of the width with the velcro closure, my foot moved around too much, slid forward and ended up with a blister between toes. I had high hopes.

Getting used to it - With the slight heel I'm sliding forward a bit and the band between the toes takes a little getting used to. However, I love them and once I'm used to them all will be well.

Fantastic sandal - There was no breaking in time. It never hurt between my toes like a lot of sandals do, and the foot bed was really comfortable. I wear a size 7 and I ordered a size 7. It fit perfectly. Thank you, Zappos. The shoes arrived less than 48 hours after I ordered them. Great service!
