I love these flip flops. This is the 4th pair I have purchased. During the warm months, I wear these every day. I have one pair for Dress, and another pair for casual (working at the lake). They are very comfortable and I can do anything in them. They have a thick sole so that they do NOT hurt my feet during extending wearing.
I would highly recommend the Teva Katavi Thong to anyone!

I bought this thong decades ago and wore it forever. Two years ago Teva opened a retail outlet in Santa Barbara and my brother-in-law and I went to visit. We were excited to see the thong we had so loved all those years ago and each purchased a pair. I wear them out to dinner, to the beach, to the movies. They're like my dress shoes as well. If I have one complaint both our pairs blew out in two years. But, we put a lot of miles on them.

I enjoy the comfort I get from the shoe. I only hope it dose not fall apart like my last pair. I don't wear them out as I only wear them occasionally. I try to stay out of water and sand while wearing them.

Great to carry on a backpacking trip to use for day hikes around base camp. Light weight with great support and cushioning. Extremely comfortable. Good traction for modest trails. Although only a thong, holds onto the foot well.

These are THE most comfortable flip flops I have EVER worn, and I've had a LOT of flip flops. Fit is good, and I did not have to go up or down in size. I also have Chacos, but I wear those strictly for work because I load and unload boats at each end of the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon, and the Tevas don't quite make the grade for that kind of work. (For me.)
I'd also recommend:

Feels like a well structured sandle. Durable, comfortable, and stable.
But order a half size smaller than you normally do to decrease the extra length in the heel (it drags on the ground).

This is my third pair and I could not be more satisfied. I have tried many other makes and this line fits and wears well - so comfortable.

Fantastic sandal. Size runs very large- I have a size 11.5/12 foot in my normal street shoes/running shoes. I had to get size 10 [ten!] in these Tevas to fit properly. I have a low volume narrow width foot, but the sizing is in length as well. Ten fits perfectly. Otherwise, very comfortable, robust sole- not a lightweight sandal.

I have been wearing these since they came out. Love them - Beach, Casual, I have hiked easy trails in them but was spur of the moment and I don't recommend these to everyone. My others lasted about 6 years.. these are spring/summer wear - but daily and almost all day. We walk all over Uptown and Downtown and I am wearing these.

First pair of TEVAs and I'm enjoying the comfort, fit and look. Bought these since Columbia discontinued a brand I bought in 2012 and wearing still in 2016 and I wear my flip flops all spring, summer through October depending on first snow in Minnesota. Hard to say if they'll love up to 4+ years of use but for now I love how they feel. Size is accurate, tread dept is deep and they look well made. Other reviews I read complained of blisters or sensitivity between the toes; all I have to say is if you wear flip flops daily then your toes will not get blisters or get raw. Hopefully this will make sense and you won't pass up these UBER comfy thongs.

This is my 2nd pair and I still have the first. They have held up VERY well with my original pair just showing some signs of the straps a little stained over the past 5-years or so. Seasonal worn to be sure as I live in Colorado. I bought the 2nd pair to use when going out with my wife and a different color. I did not hesitate and went straight to the same model because of how comfortable it is and it was priced competitively as well. This model seems to have better arch support then most other brands I have tried. Size wise I am usually an 11 but the 10's worked well and do not have a bunch of extra and the toe or the heel.

If you're a big dude with bad feet, flip-flops are usually self-inflicted punishment. These Teva Katavi Thongs are anything but that. I usually wear a 13 or 14 wide for my shoes with custom orthotics from the doctor for flat pronated feet, and a 13 M of these works great for me. My first pair I bought 4+ years ago, just got my second pair because the others were looking well-loved (but still super comfortable). Here's what works well for me. The footbed has enough firmness, but also cushion and shock absorption. As you break them in, the footbed will compress a bit to your foot shape. Even before that, the sides and heal area tend to cup my foot more than any old flip-flop (or even the more expensive Hawaiian ones). The strap fits comfortably, but doesn't feel like it is going to slide and slip when I walk. I wear these around the house, running errands, at the beach, and at the pool. The wet traction isn't bad, but just be careful around slick pool areas. The clean up easily from the beach. I can wear these for hours and hours and my feet feel almost like I've been using my Rx orthotics... that's amazing! If you suffer from your feet, give these a shot, you might be very pleasantly surprised.

My husband has been wearing these slippers for over 5 years now. The contour and support are unlike any other brand. Because we live in Hawaii he wears them everyday and it still lasts 2, maybe 3 years.

I just ordered my third pair of these. I get a new pair about every two years and then save the old pair for another year or so just to wear around the yard at home. I really don't even like flip flops, but these are very comfy. I have sort of wide feet - more like flippers than feet and these fit my feet perfectly. My feet don't spill over the sides like they tend to with others. They hold up extremely well. I think I had one break on me but I'd had it for about 3 or 4 years and had gotten more than my fair share of mileage out of it. Gonna keep buying these and hope they never stop making them. They also have a very nice style and look very nice too.

I have had several of these sandals and usually wear them out. Something will break or the foot bed just gets too smooth. I love these though because of their comfort and grippy sole. You can go just about anywhere with them.
