Customer Reviews Teva Original Universal - Urban

I have bought Teva's for years in the last two pairs that I bought for myself hurts so bad I cannot wear them

They are comfortable, but the sole is too flexible. The toe part bends under and I trip on it.

These shoes are cute and great for the beach, and the only reason I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1 is because they don't give blisters which is a huge plus in my book. However, there are so many cons including that the toe box is too long causing me to trip, they're intensely slippery when wet, and most of all, these hurt my feet like no other shoe. My ankles and lower legs hurt so badly after a normal day of wearing these to the point of me becoming grouchy. My lower legs and feet get so sore. Just yesterday, I wore them to the farmers market, a few stores, and walking around my house and I was in so much pain by the end of the day. I wore them on vacation a few times and felt the same way.

Strap design w/ moon & stars were a perfect way to trend back to the original one I hought years agohowever the sole was a complete disaster. Not the original supportive style. It feels like I'm almost barefoot when I walked on it. So, sorry, back it goes got a refund !! No way does it live up to its new name-Original universal.

The shoes are super cute but it kinda hurts my pinky toes. I'm normally a size 7.5 women's so I got an 8 but they don't seem to be right for me. Also the green tread used to attach the Velcro is too different from the gree fabric, I would prefer they match better.

They are confortable and beautiful but the grip is really bad!!!! Today I fell for the fourth time in 15 days. Before I had the hurricane model and there is SUCH A BIG DIFFERENCE, with that ones I could go even trekking. I am disappointed, before I was so happy about my teva for 5 years.

I've had Tevas for years and I just bought a new pair this spring. After wearing them only a couple times the layers of the sole started to separate. I returned them for another pair and unfortunately the same thing happened again. I'm very disappointed with the downgrade in quality, as they used to be very comfortable sandals for everything from hiking to a night out

I bought these for a trip to Costa Rica. Even thought I had them as tight as possible I kept tripping over the front of the sole. The sold is not the hiking one you may want. We went on some hikes and they were not suitable for it. I had to purchase something else. They are cute, though, just not for hiking.

I bought these four months ago. They are very comfortable and I wear them often but the soles are already falling off the shoe. I like these, but I'm disappointed that in less than 6 months the soles are literally falling off and making me trip. Would think twice about buying any other pairs.

They're not as comfortable as I remember. Such a bummer

The "earth-friendly recycled polyester webbing" gives this sandal's footbed a texture that feels more like an abrasive exfoliator than an insole. While otherwise a cute sandal that fit well, the uncomfortable footbed meant that I could not comfortably wear it without socks, so I am initiating a return.

I used to recommend Tevas to everyone, but I cannot recommend them anymore. 13 months in, I noticed the sole splitting apart, disrupting my walks. The straps began to fray long before that. This is all from walking in the city and going on two short (< 3 mile) hikes. They've never been submerged in water either. This is my second pair of Tevas this has happened to. Call me crazy, but shoes should last longer than that. I gave 2 stars because I adored them before they broke.

I've had 3 pairs of Teva Hurricane sandals and liked them very much. The soles of these sandals aren't comfortable to my feet. Far too pebbly on the inside(top). I'll continue to wear and replace the Hurricanes but won't repeat this model.

While the footbed is soft and Chisholm, the straps are hard plastic and have given me blisters, even wearing for short periods of time. Now I have layers of moleskin, which is helping a tiny bit. Ouch! Know this before you purchase!

Cheaply made, gave me blisters when wet, soles of sandals aren't very thick! Paid a lot of money for the namebrand that's for sure.

I had a pair of Tevas that lasted a long time and I was happy to pay more for them due to the quality. My Labrador Retriever chewed the buckle off my Tevas and I needed a new pair. I couldn't find a pair for the water, (rivers, creeks, you know, muddy) with buckles. I didn't want white or light colored. It didn't look like that had any with buckles anymore or at least not the same kind. The sole on the kind I got was so thin. They have thicker but they look like platform not for being sporty. The fabric also wasn't as thick and had a lot of thread coming out of the fabric.

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.
