Customer Reviews Teva Original Universal

These are great for boating and rafting and kayaking on the river, I even did short hikes with them. I got the black and white ones and loved the color and the sizing seemed true to size.. for 8.5 I rounded up to a nine.

These Tevas were a great addition to my collection as I got them before June; it was a fantastic way to begin the month and they're extremely comfortable and fashionable!

Was looking for comfortable sandals for long walks and fell in love with the look of these. Was no disappointed with the feel and look! The only complaint I have is the sizing. Really wish these came in half sizes - I'm usually a 7.5. I ordered a size 8. The fit is just slightly too big, but I imagine if I had ordered a 7 they would be too small. I had to make adjustments to the strap since when adjusted they were flopping all around. After my own adjustments they are good, but could be so much better if they had come in a half size. Overall, these are comfortable and stylish

My only complaint is that the straps are too long, but it doesn't affect the wear of the shoes.

Love them and you can throw them on with whatever. I feel like i could've went a size down they feel a little big but great shoe!

I got a pair of Tevas with a flip-floppy toe and ankle strap at a thrift shop and was excited to try out the original universal for increased comfort and delightful colors! Unfortunately the placement of the toe strap is too narrow for my wide and short foot. If I size up the already long footbed would be too long, so I returned. Beautiful construction thought, would recommend to others without hobbit feet :)

These sandals look great, feel good on my soles, and fit nice and secure. They're awesome. The only issue (which is kind of a big one), is that these Originals are really susceptible to "sandal grime". I'm guessing it's because of the spongy-like texture on the soles? It's kind of a problem because it makes the sandals a bit uncomfortable and your feet feel pretty nasty if you wear them long enough during a day. Could just be my personal hygiene level, but then again, I have a leather pair that don't do this at all. Otherwise a really cool shoe, for real.

I've worn Teva sandals for years and love them. However this new pair I just received has a different upper sole under my feet and they gave me a blister. The first time that's ever happened. I still love the sandals and will keep them, I just have to toughen up my feet so I can wear them.

The sandals were true to size and absolutely great! The only problem is it took over a month to get and customer service was MIA whenever I reached out. Would buy again but only in store. Never again online.

I have been wearing Teva sandals since I was a child. They always lasted me until I grew out of them (and then some), and the last pair I had lasted me 10+ years. This pair feels much lighter and cheaper than past ones. It feels more like foam than sturdy shoes. Maybe because Instagram got the best of me and suggested a pair that was a limited release? Regardless, so far so good. Hope they last as long. Love the colors, and even if they bust, I'll do better research and get a pair with sturdier soles.

There aren't half sizes, and I'm a 8 and a half. I went for a 9. It fits well, but there is some extra space at the toes. Still comfortable and cute.

been a teva wearer for 20 + years. Still love them. Although I wish you had velcro on the back still.

I like the pattern but they aren't as comfy as I'd hoped for.

I was expecting yellow/sand colored stripes like the picture but the actual color is more reddish brown.

These shoes are so adorable; I get complements on them all the time! Super soft and comfy. I have a narrowish foot, and they fit perfect. I would be cautious if your foot is on the wider side

They are reasonably comfortable but could use a bit more cushion and softer straps.

The quality is of these sandals is amazing, but I unfortunately didn't get to enjoy them at all because my dog found them and chewed them up before I could even wear them. It was VERY upsetting to me. Other than that, the colors on the cactus sandals are gorgeous and they are made really well.

Love the color, easy to wear. They are very flexible. Not good for dirt paths though because the food bed is not smooth but has ridges.

These classic Tevas fit well and look good but drive me crazy with their squeaking!

The sandal is comfortable along with all the straps.

Great casual shoe, very comfortable. These are great for walking.

Extremely comfy and easy to put on. We love the style and fit, order half size smaller then what you normally wear. The only problem I had was with shipping. ORDER EARLY!!! All shipping was a 110% inaccurate estimation. We were told they would arrive on June 6th as we planned a massive camping outing that would depart on June 7th and could really use these shoes on our trip. We got a notification at 5pm on June 8th that they had arrived. So much for wearing these on our trip... We love them now that we got home but not useful for our trip.

I love the decorative woven look straps. I wish the foot bed was the softer gray smooth kind you have had in the past. I'm not realnfond on the nubby kind. I wish you had a size 8 1/2 because the 9 is too long and the 8 would be too short! I like the adjustable straps.

I finally found the style and color and size I wanted at Teva.com. Ordered and arrived on time. My other pair from the mid 90's finally pretty much wore out, the sole has been glued by the shoemaker where it flexed and cracked open. He told me to invest in a new pair! Loved my old ones, sooo comfortable. The new ones have a footbed more like a flip flop, not nearly as cushioned as the older style. Also doesn't have the padding that backs the strap that wraps around the back of the heel. Also no padding in the inside of the strap across the instep or toes - in other words, a stripped down model. Footbed of old ones were grooved and cushioned, new ones are "prickeley" and dimpled. Bottom is not as grooved, like a tire tread on the old ones. BUT, so far they are comfy. My old ones had size 7 on the inside (yes, still readable), so that's what I ordered after measuring my foot with a ruler and using the size chart. Fit was perfect in length. That part hasn't changed in 25+ years, thankfully. Wear these mostly in the yard when gardening and watering, hosing off patio, etc. A must on vacation for around the pool and on the beach. I would be willing to pay a little more for some of the old features to be reincorporated. These are better for me than flip flops, can't wear anything between my toes. All in all, I'm happy with them. I come from a generation that doesn't believe in disposable item, pay a better price for a better product that will last and I'm a customer for life!

I had Tevas for years in my childhood - I wore them in the water, on rocks, through sand, everywhere. I longed for some walking sandals so I purchased my first pair in 15 years, and I'm so happy I did! They are super flexible, lightweight, and comfortable. They rub a little bit against my big toe, but I'm hoping I break them in after a few long walks. These are a great shoe for easy hikes and walking my dog! In regards to fit - I usually wear a 8.5 so I ordered a 9 - they are a bit long but I guess this means they will protect my toes a little more. Also, I have super narrow feet and I am able to adjust the straps to fit well.
