Customer Reviews Teva Original Universal

They hurt my feet from the constant rubbing

Compare to my old Teva of the same style and size, this new pair in purple and green straps feels very stiff and narrow. Disappointing!

I put these sandals on and immediately was very uncomfortable. They were rubbing my foot in a spot that made me want to take them off immediately. Tried to wear them through the house but took them off very quickly.

At first I was happy with the shoe but after a little while of wearing them, they caused huge blisters to form on my big toes. This made these shoes impossible to wear going forward, as they cause a lot of pain from the straps rubbing. I did try adjusting both the ankle and other straps but couldn't find a solution.

Sandals were wide, and too big; almost for a man's foot. I didn't order a wide width, so am not sure what happened there. Took sandals with me to Israel. The top strap rubbed just below my toe.

Cheaper quality, no adjustable backstrap, and the front loop sits on the knuckle of your foot making them very uncomfortable to wear.

When I walk in these my feet seem to slide sideways and the straps is on my little toe and digs into it. Not comfortable.

I love this type of athletic sandal so much and have always bought random brands off of Amazon. Decided to try "the original" bran this time. Was so disappointed with so many aspects of the show. They are extremely noisy, slippery and the strap near the toes hits at such an unflattering part of my foot. I want to return them but the site says they are not eligible for return.

So disappointed when my daughter told me this yesterday. Arizona teacher, so sandals worn year round. They have rubbed painful sores, she she can't wear. Since worn, will not return. I am taking her shopping to buy new ones this weekend. Bought these online.

I am so disappointed.Teva use to be one of my favorites but not anymore. I bought these sandals a month ago and they have already come unglued.Unfortunately you are not using good materials anymore.What a shame.Everything is so cheaply made.

These were meant to replace my Teva that I purchased in1987

Size is okay, but it feels scratchy and plastic-y. I really wanted to use this, but I don't think I'll ever wear this again.

First, I bought the Hurricaine Drift. Either I did not look closely enough at the website or it is not clear, but I found that the forward strap does not adjust, making that style dificult to wear. I then went with the "Original" thinking it might be the replacement fir what I was currently wearing. Turns of the "Original" seemed pretty "basic" ~ or perhaps skimpy. But, it is what it is and I'll make do. There are dizzying array of styles to choose from. Finding the right one is a mystery.

Unfortunately these sandals do not work for me, as I live in a mountain in NC. Walking down the mountain or you the sandals slip too much. They are not made for this type of terrain My favorite of Teva is similar to Vera on your website I have 2 pair that have been worn a lot over several years.

Too pinchy no matter what size.. didn't like them at all

Not the same quality product. Religiously bought Teva sandals before, but not now. Uncomfortable.

Took too long to get my order and when it came it didn't fit such a disappointment

This sandals are very uncomfortable, they hurt my little finger.

I've been a huge supporter of the Original Tevas, which is why I was really surprised when the pair I bought my boyfriend broke after less than a month of normal use. Teva's warranty/exchange policy is great so I was able to send it back and get him a new pair no questions asked. Hoping that it was just a one-time weird manufacturing defect and that the replacement pair holds up as long as our other pairs that we've had for years

I found the rough edges of the straps that ran over the tops of my feet irritated them

I was so excited to have these shoes as a pair of "all-in-one" aquatic/outdoor sandals. I was utterly disappointed when the shoe fit so poorly. Since the back strap is not adjustable, my heel constantly slides to the back of the shoe, making the front of the shoe look so big and wide. It literally looks like I am wearing waffles. Since the shoe doesn't fit right, it genuinely feels uncomfortable. Removing the shoe after a long day feels better than actually wearing it (Yes, I got the right size). I gave them the benefit of the doubt and kept them for a few weeks with no improvement.

Tevas are overrated! Not comfortable at all!! Would not recommend this brand when there other brands of this style shoe that is WAY MORE COMFORTABLE and half the price.

Can't believe they are stuck with a material that makes feet stink.

I bought these sandals as an avid walker looking for a more study sandal than Birkenstocks or flip flops. Within 3 weeks and less than 100 miles the soles on the bottom of the shoes are separating. Absolutely not walking shoes- didnt even last during city walking for 5 miles a day or so. If you are looking for walking sandals that will hold up traveling or in the city do not buy these, they don't even stay together for a month. I am 5'7' 150 pounds, so there is not any undue stress or anything on the shoes, just not sturdy at all.

The straps were too short to fit my foot. I don't normally have issues with shoes being tight and I have a narrow foot so I am confused why I had these issues.
