Customer Reviews Teva Omnium

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.

had a small problem with the heel strap getting blisters. tweaked the strap several times until I got a good fit and no problems since.

I like the way Keens look, but they run a little small so the biggest size is too short for me. These Tevas are roomy in the toe. I like them for light hiking most of the year. There have been problems with the bottoms coming unglued, so make sure they are on tight before you accept them. My last pair have been fine.

These are the second pair I have had. Find them geat for travelling within Australia and Overseas. Take you anywhere!

Just came back from Costa Rica where I used these shoes to walk about town on a rainy day, hike the rainforest, rapel waterfalls and raft. These shoes were comfortable, had good traction on wet rocks and dried out well. The only con was that small rocks would constantly get stuck in shoe due to the design. Expected but annoying when you're trying to quickly hike through streams and puddles and you have to consantly stop and shake out rocks. One other thing: The shoe is ugly. If they only narrowed the round top area of the shoe, it would look a lot better. I really don't think I needed that extra space around the top of the shoe..the shape looked like a duck's bill. Ugly!

Two things...It has taken three weeks for my Achilles's heel to accept this show. Give yourself plenty of breaking in time before heading out on your first adventure. Also, there is no drainage for rocks or other debris that enters the shoe. You can not shake out pebbles, but instead have to stop and unstrap the shoe to clean it out.
