I am still wearing the original I bought 20+ years ago, and I was so excited to be able to buy this pair because it was advertised as the original being back. Nope. It is a sorry knock-off.

This look rich on feet. The buckle is very awkward to snap. I have psoriatic arthritis and some days it is difficult to work the buckle. No more bags.

I love these shoes because after getting a pedicure, I can put them on without marring the polish.
I have a pair that is ages old and had the nubby sole. I do not like the smooth sole.

I had to send mine back as they just were not as comfortable as my other Teva's

Ordered new Tevas online after nearly 7 years of using my previous Originals and I was extremely disappointed with how thin and cheap the straps felt and how long and over-sized they are (comparably an extra inch of strap when securely supporting my ankle) - like a toddler in their parents shoes. I did not order the wrong size and can understand differences of wear, but I don't even trust as a brand new shoe that I could take these out to the pool that I would feel safe or comfortable. So. Sad. I might just wear my old ones until I find something more trustworthy for a true fit.

I've been having Teva sandals and enjoyed them very much. However, this one was a surprise for me because the stripes were a little bit too hard for my feet. It hurts as new pair. Unfortunately I had to return them. Waiting for the color of Hurrrcane XLT2 becomes available to get. Over all, love Teva.

Only wore a handful of times before the bottom sole started coming apart. My wife's didn't do this so most likely a manufacturer defect.

I really like these, but it seems like the bottom separates from the top , around the toe area :/

I love the way they look, the way they fit, and the cushy material used for the sole. The problems I have with these Teva's specifically, is that these get wet and smell really really awful. I've never had smelly feet or shoes, but these, I can smell them while standing in them. Also, the texture on the sole is nice at first, grippy, but after a couple hours of my feet are dry, they begin to rub and almost hurt.
For context, I have owned a different pair of Tevas for about 4 years and I love them. And I work at a kayak rental shop and wear sandals on the job

So I love my Teva's so much. That being said. I'm super disappointed because the sole is detaching from the shoe in multiple places. I've had to super glue it back so I can continue to wear them.

They are cute and will be good around wet environments but are stiff and not very comfortable.

The sandal requires some breaking in. It is obviously the bottom of Teva's line. That being the case, it is way overpriced.

Although these shoes are universal, they were huge on me. I looked at the box and see that I received a Mens sz 9. They are longer and wider than a Womens sz 9.
The footbed is comfortable, but the shoe was much too big for my average womens size 9 foot.

I have had the same tevas for years now and I finally had to upgrade as my old ones were falling apart. I wanted to love these. I was so excited, they are so cute. However, my heel falls off the back of these sandals no matter how I adjust the other straps. I thought it might be a size issue so I sized up and it's still a problem. There is too much space at the end of my toes while my heel hangs off. I hope teva adds more length to the back of the sandal or allows for an adjustable strap in this style.

I do like these sandals in general, but ultimately they are a different color than pictured online! The online picture they are almost black, in person they're a bright blue. I still like them and they fit well, but I am really disappointed that I won't be able to wear them with all the outfits I planned! I wouldn't have picked blue shoes for myself.

I remember these being so much more comfortable than what they are. My feet are a hot mess after wearing these for six hours. Hoping I can get them to break in a bit. Ouch!

They don't quite fit my feet how I thought they would. The strap at my heel is too loose and my heel falls off the back. They're super cute tho.
