Customer Reviews Teva Sirra

The straps on both pair were too tight to buckle and still be comfortable

I have a high arch, and though I'm a true 7.5 the 8 was actually well fitting in length, but the straps were SO SHORT. What the heck? I had like an inch extra on the old Tirras?

I bought these primarily because I liked the way they looked which is why I put style as a 5. The buckle-like piece by the pinky toe was definitely bothersome during the first day of wearing them, but after that it was fine. A complaint I have though is that the shoe makes my foot want to shift to the outside parts of the shoe so my foot doesn't always feel centered in the sandal but perhaps that will change a little after I wear them longer. They also make my feet smelly due to sweat between bottom of foot and the shoe which I have not experienced with other shoes, granted this is my first time having sandals.

I ordered these because I thought they looked a little more stylish than an older pair of Teva's that I love. However upon trying them on, the multiple narrow straps didn't feel as comfortable as they looked. Which is too bad, because they did look a little cuter than my old ones.

I kept these because they seemed to fit well and were cool and pretty. My arches were bugging me in flip flops so I looked for the straps for support. I rated them down because when I wore them for a day they rubbed on my feet and were a bit uncomfortable. I certainly couldn’t wear them for a long day of walking.

This shoe really did fit well. I needed a 6, but I probably could have done a 6.5 which is perfectly on size for me. Nothing about the straps felt too tight or constricting and I really like the way the shoes look...and especially that it doesn't have velcro that can wear out. The shoes are nice and lightweight and the footbed is nice and soft, perfect for days spent walking...except for two things. First is that at the pinky toe, the manufacturers stitched together the two straps with a stiff, plastic feeling thread and it's kinda sharp. So, although I didn't notice it at first, when I took the shoes off after walking around in them for five minutes, there was a burning feeling below my right pinkie toe, which told me there was rubbing. I feel like that would definitely be a blister after 30 minutes or so. I think it would depend on the shoe whether you felt that because my left foot felt fine, no rubbing. Also, the grooves in the footbed do grab hold of your skin when you walk...again, this is only something I felt on the right foot and it didn't hurt, but it was uncomfortable. In order to avoid it I had to push my foot all the way forward in the shoe and that only irritated my pinkie toe further. So these had to go back, but I wonder if that stitching could be removed without losing functionality. Not sure it's worth a $50-$70 investment if it can't.

I'm trying to replace my favorite Merrells (no longer made) and had high hopes for this cute Teva. Alas! it's not to be. The little strap loop at the outside of the foot falls right on top of my little toe bone and was horrible from the moment I put them on. Also would have preferred a buckle that completely detaches rather than a slide tightener. Back they go.
