Customer Reviews Teva Olowahu

cute and comfy, but not as comfy as teva sandals I have bought before. No idea what style but has a regular flip flop look, cloth strap, Hibiscus?flower print, much squishier. That squish is what I was hoping for. These are fine for out and about, but my feet don't say "ahh".

I have older pairs that fit perfectly, but the last two pairs seem to have very loose straps. I'm disappointed.

I was ready to like these as soon as I ordered them! I have found Teva sandals and boots comfortable, well-made, and long-lasting, so how could I go wrong? I was looking forward to the criss-cross straps, as traditional flip-flops usually rub too much between my toes. [...] I put the right one on first; it was perfect. I put the left one on, and the experience headed south. Two of the straps did not even touch my foot - they "stod up" too high. The thong between the toes felt as if it was anchored in the wrong place. I know people's feet usually do not match, but I have never had an experience like this. The left sandal felt as if was made on a Monday morning or Friday afternoon. It was not at all what I expected from Teva. I was disappointed, [...]

I have several pairs of these flips-flops that are 2-3 yrs old and they fit my narrow foot perfectly. I bought this version and the straps are a little too long and they don't stay on too well. Did you change the style a little? or am I ordering the wrong thing?

Probably would not order online again. There were a couple that fit great. One pair was too tight and a couple had one strap that was way too long. In the store, I would have passed on those. It appears the quality control is lacking with regard to online purchases.

I really like the shoe, it's just a little to constricting around the toes

These added to my collection of olowahu - I now have 6 pr and normally love them. On the gray pair the top straps are way too loose and doesn't even touch my foot. I have a very narrow foot and these are the only flip flops I have ever been able to wear so I am disappointed and not sure what to do. As for my other 5 pair - I Love Them!

these are definitely on the narrow side. fit me fine, but I have narrow feet. I had to return though because the arch support is negligible, and with plantar fascitis, thats not going to work. still looking for a lightweight supportive sandal - everything supportive seems to be also heavy. that being said, lots of my friends with regular feet have these and they all think they're just fine.

was alittle disappointed with the sandals this time around. The straps are not as wide as they were and were shiny, cute touch but not expected. I walk in the summer alot, and since I wear sandals I wear them. They seemed alittle less substantial for walking.

I have purchased Teva flip-flops in the past and this product does not appear to have the same quality as previous ones. The soles are flimsy and I'm not sure they will last. (I'm still wearing ones I bought almost 3 years ago). [...]

The style is very nice but I found that the seams of the straps rubbed on the top of my foot & irritated the skin to the point that I had to cover it with a bandaid.

I have had two other pairs previously and they were amazing and lasted for 2 years with a ton of walking wear put on them. The two pairs I just bought and no where near as good and they are the same style. I'm very disappointed because I shouldn't have to suffer this badly for sandals. I feel like the straps are so tight (on the same size as my other ones and I'm not swelling) that it bruises.

Priced higher than necessary

I love your sandals and have about 10 prs of this style in different colors. Some fit better than others. I have three prs that are a very loose fit. If I could find a store locally, so that I could try them on before peuchasing them, I would not have bought the three too loose prs.

I think I would have liked this sandal if I could have gotten my foot into it! I normally wear a size 10 medium so that's what I ordered. I couldn't even get it on all the way the straps were so tight! A wide might have worked but rather than shipping back and forth I returned them. Also, the straps were narrower than I'd expected they would be.

This is my second pair. The first I bought last year in a store, and these on-line. Here's the problem: while these are about the most comfortable flip-flops ever because of the "mush" sole, the straps are not consistent. I recommend buying them in a store so you can try them on, because even among the same size pair the looseness or tightness of the straps will be different. You may need to try on two or three of the same size and pick the right and left foot that fit you best. This is a pain. The ones I ordered on-line have this problem (the right is significantly looser in the straps than the left)so I had to take it to shoe guy to have him cut and shorten the problem strap. Adding significantly to the cost of course. So in the future I will buy these only in a retail store so I can try them on and get a good match.

I ordered these sandals last year and I was a bit dissapointed at first because they were a bit narrow for my feet. But after a few days wear they started to fit better. The second strap on the outer sides of my feet were sore from chaffing but only when I walked for hours.Just when I was getting use to them I lost them while on vacation :(... Regardless, I am giving these another shot and I ordered them again this year but I went up a size. They are very cute and stylish I ordered the brown coloured ones

I used my flipflops to walk miles in Hawaii.I have always bought Teva for this reason. They are stylish so that you could wear them from a nice restaurant or to a movie, I ordered the Kena in the past and got nothing but raves from people who saw them. I would like to see TEVA bring back the sexy style of the Kena...

I bought these shoes for my bridesmaids to wear at my wedding reception. I tried them on since they were my size and found them to be not very comfortable. They were tight on the top and rubbed between the toes. I returned all five of them.

Very cushy sole with moderate arch support. The straps are too tight. I need them for a trip with a lot of walking so having tight straps wouldn't work. However, I have a friend who swears by these shoes.

I buy a new pair of Tevas every summer. The summer is not even over (aug.) and I went back to wearing last years Tevas. The Soles are worn thin and uncomfortalbe. I will not be buying this style next year.

I normally wear 8.5 or 9 and I wear an 8 in these. I loved these last year and wish I had bought more. This year they're suddenly wider, and therefore fit more loosely and less comfortably. This is especially bad since they stretch after a while -- which was fine with last year's initially snug fit. Not so much with this year's fit (unless I just got a bum pair?)

Flip flop looked nice but ran narrow. I do have wider feet so these may be better for someone with narrower feet. Returned.
