Shoes felt too narrow in a smaller size and too long in a bigger size. Would have loved to be able to get a half size. I was really excited to get them bc I heard they were comfy and versatile but I can't really wear them without being uncomfy bc of the sizing problem

Wore them one hike and they're already tattered and worn on the edges. Could pay $25 more and get chacos that last me for years and not be worn down in one trip.

I'm very disappointed that only after 2 months, my brand new Tevas are falling apart! I haven't been on that many hikes and feel like that shouldn't be happening too soon

True to size... but the texture and feeling wearing them- absolutely horrible. Bought thinking I would wear these for light hiking and everyday wear but could barely keep them on just trying them on. Painful. Very confused how these are described as being super comfortable by other reviews. Also they did not seem like they would hold up long for walking around for more than a summer, especially for the price.

Had to return these. The foot bed is scratchy and painful. The straps were digging in to the sides of my feet, and their odd placement made the shoes too narrow for me. However, these shoes were also too long for my feet.

Sad to say my Tevas have let me down. They're already falling apart.

I love these sandals but I think within 2 weeks the sides of sandals came undone and that was it.. I tried to get help to return them but all I was told was to ship them back.. I don't own a printer, I no longer had the box. You know it was just too much hassle. Sad because I've been wearing Tevas for years and this was a first

The point at which three straps meet in a small, plastic, triangle piece (essentially just below the joint of the small toe) was rough and rubbed my skin raw within a very short time of wearing them. Only the left sandal, so I don't know if perhaps it had some kind of defect but I can't wear this sandal.

Was so hopeful that these would be the all around shoes I'd wear all summer. One full day of wear left blisters on both sides of my feet. I regret buying these.

Original Universal: the name is a joke. I am wearing an old pair of universal Tevas that are a gazillion times better than these. No support--just a nearly flat footbed. Pretty colors, but don't let that sway your decision.

I am wondering if maybe I just got a bad pair of Tevas. It was my second time ever wearing them. I was walking around the store when I thought the Velcro strap loosened somehow. Unfortunately the ankle strap sewn into the base of the sandal ripped :(( my friend tried fixing it but said I'm better off buying a new pair

The sandal I purchased is lifeless, has literally NO arch support and actually started (I doubt coincided with) the onset of foot pain while walking. I've worn a pair of inexpensive Columbia sandals for 7years, which I've loved; but heard they were now in the Teva brand. I'm not happy with the Teva version.

I'm disappointed in the new Tevas I bought to replace ones bought a long time ago. The sole seems like an over thick flip-flop with a slight wedge. It's not supportive. I should have bought a different style with a heartier sole, but didn't expect these to be so cheap.

I bought a pair and the shoe is way too large. Theres an issue with one of the straps as well. I wish I could get a new pair but going through refund process is too difficult

Not like the Tevas I purchased years ago. These were straps on thick foam.

I bought a pair of teva sandals in a store two summers ago and they were the best I ever had. So I thought the ones I ordered now would be the same. I ordered different models and different sizes because I was not sure which would fit best as they were not identical to the ones I had. What an unpleasant surprise!! They had nothing in common with my previous ones. I don't know whom they used for the shape of the foot, but it is totally off and a weird shape. They are heavy, and two of the ones I bought give no support. Very disappointing! I sent everything back!

Way too big. You cannot tell that until you wear them, so now I am stuck with a pair of TEVAs that are too big.

So I put these sandals to the test on my trip to Vegas. I walked the full length of the strip in these. It was about 45 minutes each direction and 106 degrees. The sole was comfortable however I had pressure sores on my heals. The straps also rubbed the upper part of my feet raw. I did wear them for 4 days straight to help break them in but they were still pretty painful. I purchased another pair with a thicker sole, we'll see how that one is goes.

I am so disappointed. I placed an order for a multi color womens sandal and I received nothing close to what I ordered.

I bought the classic pair and they are made like rubbish. At least the company recycles the teva, so it doesn't go into a landfill...I've worn them 2 weeks snd they're made soo poorly.

The picture in ad is misleading as the product falls way short of the photo. Not only that, but previous purchases of Teva sandals were wonderful....nice looking and very very comfortable immediately. These were ugly and most uncomfortable. Good bye Teva.

I bought this original style, not realizing that the sole of the sandal is different than what it used to be. It is now a waffle-style ridged sole (the part of the sandal that touches the bottom entire sole of your foot). This ridged surface created cuts in the sides of the soles of my feet that became painful very quickly. I tried putting bandaids on my feet to cover the cuts, and I still got the cuts in the same places.

I still wear many Tevas from prior purchases. The "old" Tevas have a more sculpted fit. This only has a flat piece of rubber. Not a good fit,bad for my feet. Very,very disappointed. Would not order agin.
