Unfortunately this shoe was too narrow for my foot, and lacked the arch support to prevent my foot splaying out and pushing against the straps in a way that just made my foot look fat haha. I'm aware I have somewhat wide feet, although it doesn't usually come up with the styles I choose. Also, I have a pair of Teva midforms, which I love, so figured it was worth trying these out, and I'm sad it wasn't a good fit. Sizing up wasn't an option because there plenty of space between my toe and the end of the sandal. Wish Teva made these with a wide option.

I love the style of this product & how quickly it arrived to my house, but I cannot skip past how narrow the footbed was! The straps have minimal stretch also, so there is no "maybe I'll squeeze into this." If you have wide feet like me, their men's sizes worked perfectly!

I have been buying and loving Tirras for years and decided to try the Dorados. They just didn't work for me. Their sole isn't as thick and supportive as the Tirras. The sandal just looked and felt a bit crooked to me.

Cute sandal. I've been wearing the same size Tevas for every pair I've bought. When I tried these on I could barely get them over my foot because the straps were too tight. I guess if you have narrower feet this wouldn't be much of a problem. I wish the ankle strap was adjustable like the universals, because the ankle was a bit loose.

I've bought Tevas before but the sizing on these shoes was a bit odd. The front is long, would recommend sizing down.

I wanted to love these sandals but the non-adjustable straps were just too wide for my narrow, thin foot. I’m a 6.5 and the 6 fit well length-wise.

I so wanted to love these! Super cute version of the classic Teva sandal. Easy on and off and felt like they would be super comfy if the strap over my toes wasn't so tight. I had them on for just a few minutes and could tell they were going to crush my pinky toe, even after breaking in. If the toe strap was adjustable, I'd be keeping these.

I like these but I’m not crazy about them. The comfort is there but I wish the straps were a little bigger because I have a wide foot and high arches, so my foot looks squeezed and I also got the off white, which makes my foot look bigger. I thought I’d really like the style but in person they’re just okay, I wish I would have gotten the regular Tevas, but it’s too late since I’ve worn them. My mom told me they look like old lady shoes.

These are super cute sandals, but stay away unless you have super narrow feet. I could barely jam my regular width feet in them, and absolutely could not wear them for any period of time. They aren't adjustable like other tevas so beware!

I don't know why but Teva shoes are all too wide anymore. I would recommend these to friends if they require wide shoes

It generally fits okay, but the three straps aren't stretchy enough and my skin bulges out around it.

I really could have used an 8.5 but they don't come in 1/2 sizes. I was hoping I would be able to use them for east day hikes and also to go to a casual dinner. The sole isn't thick enough for the hiking. I could feel the earth beneath my feet easily. Because they are a 1/2 size too big; the uphills slid my foot very far back in the shoe. Glad I had them to wear after the hiking boots gave me blisters after a hiking sock failure.

I have the original Teva's, and the Hurricane ones and love them both. These however fit extremely poorly. The heel-strap is either too far back or too loose, that combined with the elasticated over the foot straps pushes my feet back so far that sometimes my heels hit the ground instead of the shoe. Not at all impressed by this style.

These looked comfy and seemed to be made well but we're significantly narrower than the other models.

I was hoping I would break into these sandals and get more comfortable. I wore it on a week and a half long trip camping. with socks they're relatively comfortable but since they're sandals I don't want to wear socks with it. I got a lot of chaffing and blisters starting to form on the sides of my feet. I stepped in a creek and they didn't dry forever and chafed even more. Im actually afraid to wear my sandals now which makes me so sad since I was so excited to get them :( but my feet hurt so much wearing them. The sole cushion isn't all that comfortable either. Maybe a good choice for people with very narrow feet but guess that's not me unfortunately I really wanted to love these!

The straps are at an angle different than the base of the shoe, so my toes were pointing one way and the base was pointing another as if my foot was at an angle to the sole... super weird design. The footbed is very rough. I imagine if I wore them on a long hike I would get painful feet. Returned. I really wanted to like them.

I bought these super cute sandals for our occasional camping trips and decided I would "break them in" before heading out. I am a mother of two boys so I'm always on the go. The second day I wore these, I stooped down to tie my son's shoe and the strap cut through my skin. These are not very durable on muddy terrain either, as I just about bust my butt walking back indoors to take them off.

these shoes are so cute and tevas are always wonderful, but these shoes are not made for my wide feet. they're not very adjustable either except around the ankle. i read that they were very particular so i knew there was a possibility for an exchange. these i feel like are hit or miss so if you don't mind exchanging theyre worth a shot!

There is way too much toe room, yet the straps fit correctly. No support or lining to block rocks, etc that could poke right through.

The fact that you don't have 1/2 sizes makes the shoe too big. The front flap keeps bending over when I walk with them. The did order the other ones to see if they're better. Not happy with this pair. But I wore them so didn't want to return.

I was surprised that the base was not like those of the other Tevas I have,, not modeled, light and unsupported like a flip flop. The scratchy stiff strap may be because of the silver color I chose, and may break in once I get the gumption to wear them. But for now, I'll do so only close to home in smaller increments. Not as amazing as the other styles I have so enjoyed. They look nice though and I love the look of the silver.

these seem to only fit absolutely perfectly aligned feet, which I happen to not have. Even with perfect feet the toe portion or the sole swings way out like it's there for an extra big toe.

I tried these in and returned right away. They look amazing, but the straps needed to be further away from my toes. My pinky toe didn't show at all and the strap was very tight.

These sandals look super cute, but the straps were way to tight on my foot even with the elastic stretch. I wish there was a wide option. Also, the sole is shaped in an unusual way, they seem like they are really made for long narrow feet. In addition, the soles seem pretty flimsy for the price.
