Great shoe. Much cuter than some of the other ones out there. The straps are a little tight at first, but they do stretch out. Dislike the white bottom of the shoe. They are pictured as a teal color, however they are a darker teal/green in reality.

Love the shoe, retro, yet classic. I wear a very small size and usually Teva 5 fits well, but these are a bit big. Just wish I could go down a size, otherwise, the perfect shoe. Looks good with shorts, jeans, skirt, or summer dress! Please consider making a 4 or 4.5 or children's! Thanks!

Chaco, because you can get the same sandal in children sizes!!

Many reviews said this shoe ran large. That is NOT the case! And if you have a slightly wide foot... this is not the shoe for you.

My foot was riding very far back on this sandal due to the tor strap location.

I purchased a pair of these nearly 8 years ago and have worn them nearly through. Part of the old design had Velcro that allowed you to wrap the ankle brace around the front, making the shoes slip-on's. I am disappointed that this new design doesn't have that feature, and that they can only be worn when fastening the brace around your ankle.

Worn sandals 3 or 4 times and already Velcro is not sticking.

I was ready to love these because I have & love the same shoes I bought last year with a thicker sole. I think that style was available for only a little while. Anyway, this pair doesn't fit. The strap for the front of the foot is very tight -- too tight to wear even for merely fashion and not function! The length of the footbed is true to size. The ankle strap is shortish but long enough around for me because my ankles are very skinny. Disappointed.

I love the looks of these shoes! But the ankle strap was too tight. Cutting off my circulation.

These have been my "go-to" sandals for years, however Teva has recently changed them to where the toe straps seem much to loose.
I'm so sad, because I absolutely adore the look and feel of these sandals. I had to return them and I will be searching for a new favorite sandal.

Love these shoes, but I can not wear them for outdoorsy activities! I broke my foot in these shoes last summer. Not the best support! They are comfortable and stylish!

I really like these sandals, I bought it purposely to be used in water and boating but I was so disappointed when I slipped on wet surface of the boat.

I think this is a really cute sandal but It really needs more support! Also the ankle strap was tight and my ankles aren't particularly big. Returning.

I bought these sandals because a friend has them and loves them. They fit too narrow for me and my feet felt constricted in them. Love the style and wished they worked out.

I was expecting sandals as instantly comfortable as the Teva Olowahu, and was disappointed. These were stiff, rough, and the toe strap was tight. Maybe suitable for some feet, but not mine. Thank you Zappo for making returns super easy.

Alas! The straps, notably around the ankle are way too short. I own other Tevas and this has never happened! I will be returning them.

Very affordable sandals that are a step above flip flops due to the straps around the ankle. Not built for hiking or serious walking as the sandal is flat with no arch support unlike my older more expensive Teva sandals but cuter (I bought the turquoise in size 9.5). Very nice with more feminine clothing when travelling such as summer dresses as less bulky looking than my old Tevas. A nice addition to my sandal collection.

I like the fact that the won't fall off in the water however, the sole straps were set back too far on the sole causing my heal to be placed on the back edge of the sole. The front of the sole is exposed quite a bit, which gives the appearance of a sandal that is too big for my foot.

This is not how I remember the original. I had a pair that last many years. The soles were much thicker and the tread much deeper. I need sandals for walking in rocky streams and ocean edges. These will not do it.

The sandals seem very well made. I usually wear a woman's 8-1/2 to 9, so I ordered size 9. Unfortunately they were a full inch longer than my foot. And the ankle strap barely fit. I had to return them.

I wanted this sandal for the beach. Thought that the ankle strap would keep the sandal secure on my foot. Wearing them around the house now as they are a bit uncomfortable between my toes.

I really liked these shoes a lot and have both pros and cons about them. First, from the picture online they looked more of a shade of green,but when I saw them in person they are actually a baby blue sole. This wasn't what I expected them to look life at all. Also they are too wide for my small feet and might actually need to go down a size. Great shoes for going camping of any sorts, but when I went in the water they stretched out a decent amount and the sides where the material connects to the bottom began to wear after only one day of wearing them. Don't get me wrong I really like these shoes, but I would like to try them on in person rather than ordering them online. Debating if I want to get a solid color pair, but not sure yet. Definitely recommend, but would suggest to try them on first before buying for sizing.
