Customer Reviews Teva Original Universal - Urban

i've worn through 2 prior pairs of this leather sandal and have loved them. Unfortunarely, for me and my aging body, the model has been "streamlined," and no longer has the same cushioning as the original. i have 5 other pairs of "fashion" Teva's that are wonderful, but the Original has been my go-to for every day and for city walking. i did return them but am open to alternative suggestions....

I'm very satisfied.

I was having a difficult time choosing between Chaccos and Tevas but I decided to give Tevas a chance since I had never had them before. They are stylish and I like the way the look so I had high expectations. Sadly, I was disappointed with the sizing and the durability. They are a half size too big and terribly uncomfortable. I wore them to the beach and by the end of the day I had blisters and my feet were aching. I would not recommend, especially if you are looking for hiking sandals.

I have bought many pairs of your sandals but the last 2 were not up to your standards i still have the 1st pair I bought and love to have another but you no longer make them.

Please send me a return shipping label. I need a better sandal than these. My real "originals" have lasted me for over 13 years. The soles are still perfect, just coming unglued.

The shoe was purchased for my husband as we were vacationing at the beach and he needed something that he could get wet while walking our dog and throwing the ball into the water. It was perfect with the exception of the blisters it caused right where the ring is positioned on the top of his feet. We are returning it for the Toachi model which has no ring. Other than that I will continue to buy TEVA-excellent quality!

Very disappointed in product. Have had them only a month and worn them only a handful of days and they have already started to pull apart at the soles.

You would not take back my defective shoes. Insisted it was not a manufacturing issue, when it clearly was. I did not abuse them. Will never buy from a company that will not stand by their products. Would have given you zero stars if possible.

Nothing is great about it. Zero stars if that was an option. I have written many reviews. You would not except a return as you said it was not a manufacturing issue, which it clearly was. I do not buy from companies that do not stand by their products. I had them maybe a month and the rubber was defective. Did nothing to them at all. Normal wear.

I returned them.

I love Tevas but I returned these. The color is NOT what is pictured in ad. More purple than navy/dark blue Very disappointed!

These are my first Teva sandals and they are uncomfortable and cheap looking

How does a company not have half sizes? It's either clown feet shoes, or your toes hang off. I picked clown shoes and now I drag the toe and they are immediately dirty. This is so annyoing. My shoes are already ruined and I'll probably trip over them.

Had these tevas on while I was walking around in shallow water when I slipped and broke my leg. I definitely didn't feel secure with them but they're sold for the purpose of preventing falls while walking on wet surfaces. The EMTs and local doctors all agreed that tevas are NOT "water shoes" and are just a slippery as a regular shoe on wet rocks.

For some strange reason there is 2 different textured parts of the sole placed intermittently. One very grippy and one that feels like cardboard, which has absolutely no traction. To make matters worse the non-grippy texture was placed right underneath the toes, where you need traction the most, as you push off. I took 3 steps and immediately my foot slipped back. Not sure why anyone would consciously design a sandal this way, especially one advertised for outdoor/hiking use. I've never disliked footwear so fast.

Normal TEVA good fit, but the top of the sole that touches the sole of my foot - ouch! Like a teeny tiny bed of nails stabbing into my foot. The other Tevas I got in this order did not do that. Going back.

Your site is impossible to navigate. I'm not a robot and spent more than 15 minutes trying to get the "puzzle" right and finally gave up. I will not be doing that again.

I only wear Teva sandals in the summer. They're my favorite brand and fit. Not any more. I bought a pair and wore them for three months (daily). I started to have severe back pain that wasn't alleviated by medicine or heat pads. (I exercise regularly, am not over weight, and sleep on a firm mattress.) For a week I tried to determine the source of the pain. Finally it dawned on memy shoes! I wore a different brand of shoes and the back pain immediately went away. I'm upset my sandal purchase only lasted 3 months, but relieved I don't have back pain. I will never purchase another pair of Teva sandals, they aren't what they used to be.

Teva, in my opinion should discontinue this product from its line of sandals. It doesn't reflect the high quality of the brand. I did return them and bought the Teva f1 5 universal. It's perfect and what I expect from the Teva line of products.

My foot slides, almost seems like my toes are facing one way and my sandals are facing the other. I got a half size smaller but seems weird.

I love traditional Tevas but these are very different which is probably why they cost very little money. The main difference is that the soles are completely flat with no support at all

It had a rough corner

The soles are very cheaply made.

Shoes feel flimsy, the fit is narrow and the soles have an uncomfortable ribbed pattern - returned.

I have wanted to try these for years and was very excited about my purchase. However, the sandal fits very strangely. My heel when the straps are fastened, my heel slides off of the back of the sandal. I cannot adjust the straps tight enough to prevent this without the straps digging into the front of my ankle.
