I thought I would give these a try since they were on sale, big mistake! The quality/ comfort doesn't compare to the shoes I have been wearing:Chaco's. They were too flat for my taste and they rubbed my feet in the wrong placesdefinitely not a fan (I have narrow feet)

The surface where your bare foot contacts is rough and hurts my feet. I'll be returning them.

The shoe is cute, but the quality is terrible. I will not buy another pair or Tevas. The bottom of the shoe is like a flip flop material and not a good arch supporting shoe.

Would not recommend for those who have soft feet or sensitive bottoms of feet. The rough texture was brutal and hurt my feet for two days. I finally bought soft insoles and glued them down. I have my original Tevas that had suede soles.

Wanted these for walking. Never had to break in a pair of Tevas before. Have to wear moleskin on both feet. Not like the Tevas that were like walking on a cloud.

They're fine. Disappointing after having Tevas hyped to me for years. The velco straps rub in weird places against your ankles and feet, the bottoms are so slippery, the straps take a long time to dry out. But they are shoes that will keep your feet from directly touching the ground.
Glad I got them on sale and not full price.

While the straps and practice triangles get uncomfortable, the footbed of the sandal is the torturous part. I don't know if it's the texture, the way the foot sits on the shoe, or a combination; both caused giant blisters on both feet

I am usually a 7.5/8 but other reviews said to size up. I should have sized down. When walking my foot would slide back because of how the straps fit. It would cause me to trip on the excess. Overall would be comfortable sole but straps and sizing need adjusting.

I use the shoes for Kayaking mostly. I need shoes that are good for in and out of the water all the time and I have always had Teva's but my last two pairs that I have owned for 10+ years literally fell apart. I ordered these because I thought they were the same and I was wrong. I wear a 9 normally and I am so sad Teva doesn't have half sizes because these are too long. I need an 8.5 but an 8 is too small.

I wore these shoes five times and got extremely bad blisters every time. I got blisters on both of my little toes, one of my big toes, and the bottom of one of my feet. They fit well and are very cute. Hopefully, I can find a solution to my blister problem!

Bought a size 10 but I have a narrow foot so the Velcro strap was so long it dragged on the ground. I tried to loosen them to make it shorter but then I kept tripping. Will probably just cut the strap.

The product feels cheaper than I was expecting. I am a 6 1/2 and was told to get a 7 since Teva doesn't offer half sizes. They were massive. Like wearing big flippers. I wanted a refund but was told since I didn't have the original box they couldn't help me. (I threw the box away so maybe that was my bad). Overall I'm not impressed and will not be buying these again.

I usually wear 81/2-9. Only come in full sizes. Ordered the 9, at whole size too big. Reordering the 8. Otherwise, exactly what I was looking for in a sandal I would wear at the beach and not feel like my heel was coming off the back of the sandal!

I love my black Tevas. I was really excited for the Sand Dune color, but these are less of a rich cognac color and more like a pale cardboard color. Bummed to have to return.

I usually love my Teva's, but this particular pair, the strap digs into my feet and hurts going across. I kind of hate them.

In the past I have shunned away from Teva's because of the style. This year they seem to have stepped up their game with some cute additions to the classics. However, they fact still remains that the top interlocking plastic they use in all of their designs is actually really uncomfortable. If you ever walk on sand with these shoes you will get sand under where the triangle plastic piece hits your foot. And for those of you who know what happens when any debris gets in there... Yup. Blisters. Every time! They are nice for city walking due to the amount of rubber cushion on the sole. But, totally disappointed as I had blisters the entire time I was in Mexico.

I love the original look. I've had my old ones for 15 years. Time to buy a new pair but was disappointed. The sole was not as sturdy and the sandle is not a molded fit like the true original. This is a much cheaper version. I doubt it will last 15 years.

I was SO excited to buy these. I wanted trendy, waterproof sandalsand they ARE CUTE. However, these sandals rub the side of my toes and it hurts so bad to wear them. I don't want to return them because I'm hoping it may just be a "breaking them in" issue, so we'll see.

I did not like these sandals. The footbed felt flat and cheap.I have touchy feet and am overweight, so that might have a lot to do with why I didn't like them. The flowers on the straps were cute. They run true to size. But I will stick with the Vera style, more support.

The waffle pattern on the sole is very uncomfortable. Others mentioned “breaking them in” but I can’t imagine doing that at the expense of the bottom of my feet! Why suffer like that? I’m returning them right away.

Lost my old pair and missed them so much, so finally got around to buying a new pair. First of all, I love how they look! The colors are fun and love the fringe on the straps. Unfortunately, they are so uncomfortable!! The foam material is abrasive, not soft at all. I have wide feet, and my old Teva's were just fine, but even by adjusting the straps on these, they don't feel good on my foot. I got the same size and everything, but the way my foot fits in them there's too much extra in front of my toes and they just don't look as good. I don't believe it's a matter of wearing them in, because I remember the last pair I had was comfortable from the get-go. Obviously something was changed and it just didn't work out for me. Sad, because I used to love Teva's so much!
