Customer Reviews Teva Omnium

Awesome company with awesome products which cannot be compared with other company footwears. Teva is no.1 in the world. I Bought my sandals all the way from USA to INDIA. I love teva. I feel that for a human body - how important the dress is. Similarly, for a human feet, teva footwear are also important

Look adjustable but they are not. Love Tevas, maybe needed a larger size. Cannot wear socks with them, would be too loose without socks in a larger size.

I find the buckle placement over the instep awkward. I tend to cross my legs to secure the buckle and this makes it difficult to reach. If the buckle were on the opposite side it would be much easier. Also, this product gave me heel blisters the first time I wore them, but I'm hoping this will improve as they break in. Otherwise very comfortable and with excellent traction and stability. This is my 4th set of Tevas in the last two years, over which time I've lost 135 lbs and turned my health around. Tevas are my primary walking gear and I've covered literally thousands of miles wearing them.

I bought these shoes for my Galapagos trip (leaving next week). So far my time in them has been around the house as I waited to decide to keep them. The plus for me is that they are a solid shoe with good foot coverage. I have been wanting a good camp shoe for hiking and a good shoe for canoeing; one that you can beach the canoe and hike into the woods a bit as well. I tried some sandals but worried the straps would stretch when wet and wouldn't feel as solid in the water on my foot. I also appreciate the ease of setting the fit on this shoe and then just 'clipping' in and out rather than resizing each time you put them on. I also LOVE the amount of places to setthe fit: heel, ankle, foot width. It allows it to accomodate wearing socks (horror to my daughters!) or barefoot and the swelling of feet throughout the day and after a long hike. My only isse is, being a waterproof shoe, the sole is not as comfortable to my bare foot. The tread inside the shoe causes some friction but not enough to cause discomfort or a blister; just not as comfortable as a 'squishy' flip flop!

Feels and looks a bit too wide on the toe side. Have to stop to remove small rocks and sand which gets trapped inside, so not extremely too comfortable on a beach walk. Perfect for other types of hiking - bush walk, forest etc. Great on a plane!

have always loved your products. expect to love these too. as an older person with knee and foot issues, appreciate the extra stability they provide.

I'm not new the Teva product line but I bought these to for outdoor use and the fact that I suffer from pilanter fasciitis and I have a wide foot. So for no issues and they feel really good.

Husband loves them except can't wear them w/socks (they're THAT true to size). They are basically adjustable slip on and heel was a bit tight & width adjustment was a bit stiff at first. Would like these w/quick release heel that opens fully. Otherwise? Very comfortable once on and good support. Worked great traveling airports from Pacific Northwest to Romania!

Superior product that I've worn on beaches, in the water, walking a golf course, and climbing/hiking (with rocky terrain). The only thing keeping it from receiving the fifth star is that the position of the buckle, on the outside, makes buckling and unbuckling the shoe a bit difficult and annoying. Otherwise I (we) love the shoe. (My wife has a pair and feels similarly about it, and she does all of the above having had two major foot reconstruction surgeries a few years ago.)

I wore these new in the Highlands of Guatamala. They were comfortable from the start with no break-in time needed. We did build stoves there and they probably weren't the best choice for mixing cement and mortar since they let in particles and dirt. That being said, they cleaned up just like new. Very easy to clean and dry! I love them.

The Omnium is a hybrid watershoe-hiker with a lot of excellent features and nice aesthetics. Its most notable feature is its 3 point fastening system (straps at the front and back of the heel and a BOA cord across the top of the foot). The low-profile upper also holds the foot securely in the well-cushioned sole from toe-off to impact. I notice that my foot stays put in the cradle regardless of torsion or angle of impact, whether walking or running, and this is the Omnium's biggest advantage over conventional sandals I've worn while hiking. Of the hybrid hikers I've tried from other manufacturers, I think the Omnium is the best. I have two concerns, however: 1) The midsole doesn't have a shank and it should for hiking through rocky streams (one of the activities it's made for) and for stability generally- especially on a sandal. While the shoe is substantial, I feel rocks through the sole that have hurt my forefoot and that really doesn't cut it. Other Teva sandals have shanks, so why this one doesn't is a mystery to me: the Omnium is their top of the line all-purpose shoe. 2) The outsole rubber is their original Spyder formulation and therefore probably not as sticky as their more recent products. I assume there's some trade-off for durability, then, and mine seem to be holding up well, but I've slipped on some rocks I probably shouldn't have. So, in all I'd say it's a very good product that could use one or two upgrades to make it a truly outstanding flagship shoe for them and a piece of equipment that fills a specific niche for us: an all-purpose watershoe-hiker hybrid that works on all surfaces in and out of water.
