Customer Reviews Teva Obern

I bought these Tevas for my husband's birthday, he loves them and wears them all the time. They look great, and he said they are very comfortable.

The arch is extremely good. The sandals are very comfortable and give great support. The sizing runs like athletic shoes (half size larger than than casual/dress shoes).

Wow, I ordered 1/2 size larger than usual and they fit my EEE feet well enough to use! They also have great arch support that is located in the right place so I can use them for long periods without orthotics. This is the 1st pair of sandals I could use this way.

The shoes have thick soles and provide great cushioning - the upper straps have a bit of an edge that I am having to break in - the upper straps could be better designed. However, I think this sandal is still one of the nicest ones I found.

Nice sandal overall. The footbed fits my husband's foot, but the straps over the instep and ball of foot are woefully short. Conclusion -- nice sandal but not for guys with a wide foot with a high instep. Will be going back to Zappos.

I'm on my third pair of Oberns. This should tell you something. The fit and comfort are great, the durability is not. Don't get your feet wet. There's a black dye in the insole that migrates when wet, does a great job on the soles of your feet. The arch support is excellent but the insole doesn't wear well. I buy them because I haven't found another style with this level of comfort.

I have another pair of Teva sandals that I love, except the foot bed holds on to odor. This pair is not anywhere near as comfortable. The ankle strap cuts into my ankle and the bottom part of the strap across the front only goes 2/3 of the way across and cuts into the top of my foot. I was hoping for a similar fit to my other Tevas with an odor reduction from the leather foot bed, but was very disappointed.

Needed some new sandals for a trip to Hawaii. My old leather Tevas were shot. Man, I hated to see them go! Right from the start they were comfortable. These, however are another story. I've worn them for about two weeks and can't get comfortable. I have high arches, but the arch in these seems to be too high and if my heel is in place, the arch is pressing on the ball of my foot. Also, the heel cup rolls up too high and it feels like there is a ridge running around my heel as if I were standing on heavy stitching. Very annoying. Quality and style are fine, but overall, I wish I'd bought something different! Probably should have gone for the plain Teva leather sandal, but I liked the look of these better because the longitudinal support on the other looks like plastic.

I've had these for 6 months and have worn them almost every day. They have been a comfortable fit until this last month. The foot-bed has become very wrinkled and discolored and has degraded around the inner edge allowing a hard ridge to poke through. Other than that they've been a serviceable sandal, but I'd need a years worth of wear in order to recommend them. Fix the foot-bed and it would be a good shoe.

These sandals look good, and they have good heel protection. The straps were a bit rough and lacked the softness of previous Clark sandals I bought 15 to 20 years ago. The last were comfortable enough. It was basically the straps which lacked the softness and were uncomfortable for me.

Love as in Love Teva's but these run small. The last pair were size 9 and these are 9.5 and run small so ordering a pair size 10 to see if the arch support still falls in the same spot. Hoping it does.
