Customer Reviews Teva Omnium

I purchased these shoes as a lighter weight walking shoe for local trails and parks; however, I did not pay attention that the shoe insert was not removable. I tried using an over the counter arch support, but still developed achilles tendonitis after wearing them for about 4 weeks. The shoe is cute, but not for a lot of walking on trails or concrete, even in the suburbs. So I wear them for running errands, but not any serious walking over 1 mile.

The shoes was too short and too wide for my average size foot. I bought a six and would need a 6.5 for length. But I'm not sure any size would fit in the width because the shoe was just too wide. I don't think my foot is going to be a good fit for this brand.

Ordered the 8.5, usually wear 8.5/9 narrowish. This shoe was almost too short for me, returning the shoe and not ordering the next size due to the stretch collar comes too high on my ankle and was uncomfortable. Thank you zappos fast service and easy returns.

I bought this model of Teva sandals 4 years ago in size 9 M and have been wearing them comfortably and often since then. To replace them I ordered 9 M. The 9 M is now too small. I am returning them.

These are the weirdest shoes ever! They fit fine and are adjustable through the arch and heel, but are huge through the toe area. While wearing them my feet look like duck feet, and there is room for 2 or 3 more toes in there. I was looking for something to hike in and wear to the beach for a trip to Hawaii, and need something with more arch support than Keen or Merrill shoes typically offer. Sadly, I'll have to keep looking, because these Tevas definitely are not going to work.

Tried on a pair of Teva sandles at a retail store that fit great but wanted a rubber toe which I found on Zappos. These were uncomfortable around the top but the toe was roomy. I do have bunions and suprisingly, I did not find pressure sqeezing on them, but then again I felt overall they were uncomforable and did not wear them more than an hour to determine if that would be a problem. The left shoe's arch did not fit as well as the right arch did.

My daughter and I both had the same problem with this shoe. The back of it is quite stiff and it hits the achilles. Within moments of trying it on, it began to be uncomfortable so we knew that pain would not be far behind if we kept it on. Then we tried on the Ahnu Tilden V and it was night and day. The Ahnu was SO comfortable right away, all over. It's softer and lower in the back so no painful achilles. The Ahnu is also more attractive on the foot because while it's not a narrow shoe, it has a more streamlined look than the Teva. We do wish the Ahnu had a lighter color available like this Teva, but comfort and fit trump color. I have no idea if breaking in the Teva would fix the problem, but I've been burned too many times holding on to painful shoes on the hope that they'll get better (they usually don't). And why put myself through the exercise when the Ahnu feels great right now? The Teva is going back and the Ahnu is the keeper.

I really wanted to like this shoe so I could take it to Hawaii. I usually wear a 9AA. It's a really cute shoe, and it is adjustable, but the toe box was just way too big. Also, the 9 was a little short. I wore them around the house for about an hour but they just didn't feel comfortable, as well as my feet felt very warm inside of them. Unfortunately, they're going back.

Looking for a versatile walking shoe for trekking around Greek ruins. Once on, this shoe is snug, almost like a water bootie, but it is simply too difficult to put on. I needed a shoe horn, very tight opening. The heel felt pretty stiff on my achilles, and the straps were tricky to adjust.

The jury is still out on these shoes. I bought them because I do some hiking during the winter months in a hot climate and didn't want to buy serious hiking boots. As far as the hiking goes they will do fine. It's the comfort part that I'm having trouble with. I've been slowly trying to break them in. I worked up some real blisters on my heals the first time I wore them. The left foot is fine now, but I'm still having trouble with the right one. One would think with all their bells and whistles I could make them comfortable by adjusting straps. That hasn't happened, yet. I wish I hadn't worn them outside so that I could have returned them.

Fit is accurate. Foot doesn't slip around. Footbed is fairly comfortable. Very little arch support. And the main reason I am returning these shoes is the heel piece--it digs painfully into the back of my heel. After only a couple of minutes I got a deep mark on my heel not relieved with loosening the strap. Too bad.

I only wore these shoes a couple of times. These are, by far, the most uncomfortable shoes I have ever owned. They rubbed my feet and I ended up with painful blisters. The strap across the instep is tight and does not loosen too much. The same holds true for the heel strap. I will donate the shoes to a charitable organization in hopes that someone else can wear them.

I am so disappointed with these shoes. They are so awkward to put on; the mouth of the shoe is too small and I end up stuffing my feet into them. They are not leather; so, while I expect them to loosen up a little bit, they will not stretch to fit. I actually made a vertical cut through the mesh/elastic heel to relieve my ankles. The toe box is roomy enough and my wide, flat feet like the width, but now I am starting to get blisters on the side of my feet from where the side openings in the shoe. Unbelievable. I was wooed by the number of positive reviews and my experience with the Teva (Hurricanes?) I fell in love with many moons ago. I wish that I would have gone with different shoes. These are so stiff and painful. It has been a long summer of painful footwear.

The design of the shoe was great, but the craftsmanship was lacking. On the inside of the shoe where the footbed is glued to the side, a visible cut of the vinyl remained rough and unpolished. It cut into the foot making walking highly uncomfortable. My husband had a newly purchased pair of Teva's last year where the sole just came unglued while walking. As much as they look nice, twice in a row will nix future purchasing - sending these back.

I purchased this shoe along with others to wear this summer kayaking and hiking, both for short outings and longer weekend trips. I ordered a size 8, which is what I wear in most flat shoes. The toe box was quite large for my foot but the length was just fine. I was excited about the multiple ways to tighten the shoe around my foot. There is cord lacing, a Velcro strap on the top with a quick release buckle and a Velcro strap around the back. However, I did not feel the strap around the heel was tight enough to keep my foot in place. I do not think ordering a half size down would help that either. I also felt rubbing underneath my anklebone which was not comfortable to me. I will be returning these shoes. I am still deciding between 3 Keen sandals for my purpose: Newport H2, Owyhee & Whisper Water Shoe!

Is this the same shoe that had so many raves? Looks fine, as I wanted sturdy. Very hard to get on, has no arch support and I really need good arch support. Got these to wear with support stockings but am returning and will look for something else. The best thing about this is that they came from Zappos, the very best online shoe site.
