The colors are beautiful and they function well for outdoor activities that include getting wet. However the current "cheese grater" footbed is not nearly as comfortable as the old smoother formed footbed. It cushions well but doesn't offer the same support and is very rough on the bottom of your feet.

Disappointed that they weren't like my original ones. The sole is slightly larger and seems to be made from cheaper material. Also the strap for the ankle area is too long. No one needs that much space for adjustment. I love the celestial print and of course I'll wear them, but thing's could have been of better quality.

There is nothing wrong with this sandal but the sole is lighter weight than I expected. I don't feed it will last more than one season. The strapping is nice.

I purchased these for hiking, and boating and they were very comfy- although once or twice I did slip on a damphard surface trail.

Tevas are my favorite sandals. Over the years I've had probably a dozen pair in different styles. My favorite pair ever was a leather style, I don't think they are made anymore, but they lasted for a long time and were so comfortable. Right now I have three pair on rotation. Highly recommended.

As much as I love it, it feels too small for my feet and the plastic design hurts the toe. Next time I will size up and hopefully that would be great!

Very comfortable. Classic tevas. I do find that my feet slip around a bit in these. The soles are pretty flat and they are not molded to my feet. They also are a little more clunky than I hoped. I’m hoping they break in a bit with more use. But overall they are nice and I’m happy. Good everyday type sandal

I wore these in Chicago where I walked many miles. At first they rubbed the little toe a bit much, but after a breaking in period, they are feeling great. Love these, they are comfy and look nice with almost anything.

I was hoping to be able to wear these sandals for hiking and/or walking around in/sightseeing during travel, etc. Unfortunately they just rub the outsides of my foot too much. They'll be great though for changing into after a day of hiking/sightseeing. I do like the textured insole!

This shoe is more for light walking rather than true hiking. Its comfortable and very light but it may be a bit too light for uneven terrain. Bring back more color choices!!! I need some yellow options!!

Sole seems thin. Still wearable, but just not as comfortable as many Teva sandals.

I wear them especially when I know my feet willget wet or muddy since they are so easy to just rinse off under the hose. I wish the foot bed were a little squishier, and the hook and loop fastener not so strong because my arthritic hands have a hard time pullng it apart. They also come in great volors!

Love the colors and patterns - always so nice and fresh! Even, in this case, the heavily discounted ones! Take a chance, folks - even better than the pictures! My last pair of favorite TEVAs sandals (aside Mush flip flops), are the really old Mush Universals from SEVERAL years ago. The straps, in spite of daily (except for winter), have held up - although stretched out. Still mourning their discontinuation. The MUSH bed is flattening. However, the new Universals are superior in that they are closer to a true size 8 (previous were smaller - or the back straps are better aligned from the back to the ankle. BUT, as many others complain, the sole is rough on bare feet! Can we just bring back the MUSH Universal?! With the advent of the better sizing, of course

I bought 2 pairs and they are easy summer shoes. They shed water well, but are a little tricky to wear as swimming shoes. They don't glide through the water well, and are more like wearing a paddle. The strap also pulls a lot as you try to walk through water and left sores on my toes. The design is best for summer activities and very comfortable for lengthy walks. I like the colors and patterns. So far, the material is holding up to frequent use, as well.

Comfortable to hike in on not very rugged terrain. Comfy with good cushioning, but would not be good on steep or rocky terrain as soul is soft all the way through and bottoms too slippery in Sandy or silty inclines. Very comfortable otherwise and easy to adjust.

They fit well and I like the style. When I ordered the sandals I thought that the soles were more sturdy. They are bendable and similar to flip flops. If I wear them regularly, I feel they won't last very long. They may last one season.

I love how comfortable these sandals are, I used them a lot, and they are great. The adjustable straps are excellent for wider feet like mine, and they are easy to clean too. The only problem is that they can be slippery on certain surfaces, which is not great considering that they are supposed to be hiking sandals.

There is much to like about the fit and style these sandals, but the texture of footbed feels like sharp little pins to my sensitive soles. Regretfully I must return these.
I'd also recommend:

I love his sandals. They were a bit too big, so I’m ordering the next size down. There are no half sizes.

I bought a generic brand a few years ago and I loved them so much I recently bought myself (and one of my sons!) a pair of Tevas. They're comfortable and I love them for summer since they can be worn in the water. There is something with the right shoe that makes a clicking sound (like there's a rock or something stuck in the bottom of the sole) when I walk and for the life of me I can't figure out why it's making that noise! It doesn't keep me from wearing them but the sound does bother me sometime Love them though!!
