These are probably one of the best sandals I've ever worn. They don't feel too heavy at all. Yet, they feature a substantial and full, heavy-duty Vibram rubber sole that can handle any trial with ease. I bought them, in part, specifically for the full Vibram sole on them, and they don't disappoint. These also have outstanding cushioning that isn't too firm nor too pillow-like so your feet don't sink too much into the footbed with every step. They're supportive, with good arch support. The footbed is soft enough to prevent blisters from chafing when walking long distances or on difficult and uneven terrain. The straps are padded and lined with a type of cloth that dries quickly and doesn't soak up too much water to be noticeable. They are very comfortable and also help prevent blisters from chafing when walking long distances or on uneven terrain. I appreciate the simple and reliable hook and loop fastening on the straps, and I like the overall positioning of them on the sandal. The sandals are not too stiff to walk in, but they absolutely are not overly flexible and flimsy feeling. They feel like they're going to protect my feet on a trail, which gives me confidence to walk on any kind of terrain with them. They're also very good for daily city walking. I've found them to be an outstanding, versatile sandal, probably the best sandal I've ever purchased. I've had other Teva sandals before, and I've been highly satisfied with their product. This is no exception.

I want to wear them to walk in the park.
I have another pair of Tevas that I will wear for formal occasions.
You can do that and get away with it when you are 80 years old. :-)

Absolutely love these sandals. After hiking to a river and struggling to put my hiking shoes back on my clammy feet, I committed to purchase these. I'm now preaching the Teva lifestyle. You can wear them everywhere! They've been great for camping, hiking, rivers, the beach and everyday wear. No need to break in, extremely comfortable and the soles offer great grip. I normally wear a 9.5 in regular shoes so I did size up; they fit perfectly. As others have commented, the straps do feel too long when pulled tight but it doesn't affect performance. Highly recommended.

I use this sandal for a city walk, water shoe and intense trail walking, even on muddy slopes with my daughter on my back without hear. The vibram soles are incredible in traction. Sometimes I forget I'm wearing them.
As someone reviewed, the straps are way too long, that's true. They hang off and you can't really cut them off to shorten them. I would take 2 inches off their length.
Let's see how long they hold up...

Two years in and they're still going strong. I wear them for walking around the neighbourhood, as well as riding my bicycle with sharp-pinned flat pedals. The soles are still in great shape; the straps are in great shape. I'd wear them more now if I hadn't suffered issues with my peroneal tendon which makes wearing anything with arch support a bit difficult.

I have worn these shoes 7 days in a row in hot and humid Puerto Rico. These sandals did great on hikes, on the street, in the rain, and even walking down slippery rocks. Again, I was surprised at how well they handled on various terrain. They were also very comfortable from the box. I did walk around the house a few days to break them in, and they did great. I also received lots of compliments on the look. The group I was with people commented on them constantly and a few random people gave me props on them as well. I would recommend them!

Pros - comfy. Straps well padded so don’t irritate the skin. Love the color. I am female but bought men’s shoes because I did not like the women’s colors.
Cons - none so far.

Great sandals. My old ones fell apart after years of wear so I was happy to see them on LLBean.

I went hiking in El Yunque Rainforest, PR. Shoes felt very secure and bottom soles had grip for the rocky climb. I have more of a wide foot and it was extremely comfortable no blistering.

These are my go-to shoes in the summer. All-day comfort for my wide feet, even when I'm walking 25,000+ steps.

I took these out today for the first time on a 6 hour, pretty technical hike with river crossings a lot of elevation and a steep downhill. They were incredibly comfortable, the Vibram grip kept me secure on the rocky terrain, and the padded staps ensured nothing rubbed uncomfortably throughout. I'm looking forward to many more hikes this summer in these. Highly recommended.

I've got 3 pair, and I keep watching for Teva to release 'em in some new colors so I can get more. For my wide feet with slightly high arches, these are the perfect combination of wide, supportive & soft. I can walk in them all day long and my feet still feel good at the end of the day. Mine have held up well so far, though my oldest pair is finally starting to show some tread wear on the bottom. They feel similar to the Terra Fi 5, though I like these a bit better.

My go-to footwear from April through October. I walk a lot, and these are one of only two shoes I've found that I can wear all day without my feet getting uncomfortable. I find they work well on the street or the trail. Would love to see Teva produce them in more colors!

What's not to love? Great arch support, soft foot bed, and the padded straps make these the most comfortable sandals I've even owned!

Almost no need for break in. Felt great and I put a bunch of miles on these right out of the box. I wish they had half sizes.
I usually wear a 9. But am fine in an 8. Would prefer an 8.5

I'm a 12 in most shoes, went with 11, fits perfectly. I tried others like this, but they all irritated my feet. But these have the neoprene soft cushion to soften the straps in contact with your feet. Just what I was looking for!

Tried Chacos first and they stink to high heaven. These are super comfortable, easy to clean... and don't smell! My wife had an older version that are still going strong after 4 years of all-summer-wearing. She is going to replace them with the women's version eventually.

I purchased this for mixed-use and it has been great for small hikes as well as running errands around town. Most recently wore it post-marathon and it offered so much relief for my sore feet. Definitely would recommend it to anyone looking for a Vibram-soled utility sandal.
I usually wear a size 9, but sized down for this pair.

I wore this sandal every day on my recent 2-week trip to Hawaii. It felt great! Now that I've gotten older, I wanted a sandal with more cushioning than my older Teva's. It has the cushioning that I needed.
