Teva Zilch SKU: #7761545

Finally! This is the kind of sandal I've wanted forever. It's comfortable, but not thick and bulky. Unlike most other Tevas, these actually adjust to fit my small feet. I'm a 6.5 in most shoes, but I prefer the closer fit of a 6 in Teva sandals.

These are super cute, comfortable sandals. I never walk barefoot because my feet hurt, I do have foot problems and usually buy only shoes with arch support and yet the Zilch worked very well for me. I bought them to avoid walking barefoot during a boat vacation. These really cute sandals took me from plane to boat. I wore them all day on the boat, swam with them, walked on the rocky bottom. I usually wear a 6½ or 7 but the 6 fits me perfectly.

I like being barefoot; however, walking on tile all day at home, or concrete does a number on your feet. These sandals are perfect for cushioning the bottoms of your feet. You can wear them at the beach as well and get them wet while walking. They dry very quickly. I love these sandals!!

This is a great, minimalist sandal. They strap stay on well (even in and out of the sand) and were comfortable right away. There's a good ground feel underneath, which is important for a good minimalist shoe. It's not beautiful but not bad in the light color. Highly recommend.

Gods blast it! It happened again! Hit the gym, then the showers, quickly - take the west train to the office downtown. Suit and shoes packed and in luggage tow. Khakis and Teva Zilch sandals for speed of running. This is tricky. Torrential downpour. Looks more like a waterfall than rainfall. But the Kopitiam (coffee shop) is just 58 meters away, and I dearly want my kaya toast. Hah! I have Spider-rubber grip on my Zilch Tevas, my hesitation vaporizes and I'm the fastest blur moving through the tropical rain. Splish-splash dodge skip pass the filling garbage truck. Arrived in 30 seconds, not even time for my hair to feel but only a tad moist. Teva zilch are wet but that's what they were built for, correct? Having wolfed down the delicious kaya breakfast, momentarily basking in bliss. I am assaulted by a stench. A stench that crawled up from beneath my table and is sounding alarm bells in my primordial brain areas. Yes, there is a Part of me, the wearer, there. Alas, these drying, smelly Teva Zilch sandals have taken that and enhanced it to the worst possible manifestation. They look great, feel adequate, but now shoe wearers are alerted to a new factor - smell. When wet zilch sandals are drying they draw, distill and vaporised the version of yourself that reeks havoc, clears the room and leaves lasting embarrassment tattooed to your reputation. I am resolved to donate my Teva Sandals, washed and dried, of course, to the next unfortunate hobo and go barefoot the rest of today. When I have time allowing, I will browse the Zappos catalogue for my future non-stinky footwear. To the readers, unmet, I send this message out into the vast ether. These shoes Stink! Literally!

I am a new Teva fan. I love these sandals. They are the perfect minimalist footwear for the beach. I have been shopping for a sandal I can wear in and out of the ocean on Spring Break. I ordered another pair of the bulkier Tevas that are super comfortable and have great arch support - but saw these a couple of days ago and just received them. I am amazed by how well they fit my wide foot with a high instep. The velcro straps provide a great range of positioning for the perfect fit. They are so lightweight you barely notice them on your feet and the little big toe loop is lined to make it even more comfortable. And there is a little arch support - the footbed is not perfectly flat as I thought it would be. Get 'em, they're great!

This shoe had such great potential! Alas, the sole is too thin so you feel every pebble defeating the purpose of a shoe. The toe strap would have been better in leather as the plastic is a bit sharp. Style gets top marks though, really nice looking on the foot.

The least flattering shoe I've ever worn as the strap visually cuts the leg at the top of the foot which widens the ankle and makes the leg look shorter. But they are SO comfortable in sand, water, on concrete, pavement that I wear them most days. With jeans they look just fine. Great summer sandal.

Perfect lightweight sandals for a sailboat. I never actually went in the water with them because the captain didn't want any shoes worn on board that had been in sand. So when we dove in for the beach we changed to old Tevas and then changed back. But they were grippy and comfortable, took no space to pack, and weighed next to nothing. It would be nice if they had better arch support (they have a little, but I have high arches).

Great minimal sandal. Very lightweight and very comfortable. After reading other reviews, I ordered 1/2 size down from my usual size 11 to get a perfect fit. Glad I did. The 1/2 size difference ensures that the toe band fits and works effectively to keep the shoe on your foot.
