Customer Reviews Teva Original Universal Leather

The "Aloe" color displayed online looks Khaki, but is actually a very rich olive green. I'm disappointed that professional photography somehow captured the wrong color. I purchased these as potential adventure sandals - beach, cenotes, city walking, but the arches are pretty low/neutral so they didn't give me sufficient support.

These are a little dressier than my other Teva's but the foot bed around the toe area was too wide and clunky looking for my taste. Other than that they were comfortable. I wish Teva would make some adjustable sandals like this but make the foot bed a more narrow bed so they wouldn't look clunky.

I just received this leather teva and it's aloe color. However, the color is actually green looking not tan. The style and fit is perfect though. So beware if you were thinking of a neutral color sandal that will match everything!

I was so excited to buy my first pair of Tevas. Especially when I found these leather ones that I could wear with nicer outfits. In the picture the color of the shoe looks tan; however, the shoe is GREEN. Still a pretty color, but was expecting tan instead of an olive green so disappointed that they do not match the picture well.

I purchased these for a vacation and wore them almost every day for 2 weeks. Since I've returned home they've been worn a few times a week but the leather is still stiff and uncomfortable. If I adjust it so that the sandals feel secure, the strap digs slightly into the front of my ankle and after a few hours it's not fun. Undecided if I should keep trying to break them in or put away in the closet. I wish the leather was softer.

I wanted to love these. My husband ordered them for me as a gift. They were so comfortable BUT the color Caribou is much lighter than what is pictured. I was expecting a caramelish color; however, these are closer to a taupe.

The cross strap is very uncomfortable. If tried on in a store I would not have purchased.

This is not the Original Universal leather sandals I purchased a few years ago. They were light and comfortable. This sandal has much wider straps and a thicker sole. It's clunky! Not as dressy as the original. I should have returned them.

Leather straps are stiff and irritate skin.

These are my fourth pair of Teva sandals and I wear the brand daily. That being said, these are my least favorite. I loved the idea of leather but the straps are stiff and the point where they meet (by my little toe) isn't comfortable. If I make the strap tight enough that my foot is secure, the metal loop hurts the top of my foot. Luckily, I'm not hiking in the shoe and have made it work. I wish I had bought the universal again instead. Still love Teva!

I was so excited for these. I wear Tevas almost exclusively because they always fit but this particular pair was different. The straps have no give, unlike the canvas, so they were way too short across the top of the foot/ankle. Going to have to return. I think this material requires a long strap.

I bought one pair about a month ago and wanted to buy on sale a leather universal sandal and actually purchased two pairs to get the special. When the package arrived it only had one pair not the original universal pair but the additional pair so I never received what I really wanted I returned the second pair and never received what I wanted

I have owned Teva sandals for years and have always been satisfied with the fit and materials used until my last two pairs. In the past, the leather sandals looked and felt like real leather. Now, if it is leather??, feels more like a synthetic material and the fit is not the same and the lighter colored sandal is a weird, not typical leather color.

For the money these are very cheaply made . Broke on my 3 day of wearing. I still own a pair from 3 years ago that are intact. I was looking for a sandal to go with almost everything. Would not by this style again.

First pair I ordered, the straps on one shoe were ridiculously longer than the other and not proportioned for the shoe. I returned for another pair, which then lasted less than a month before one of the back straps ripped straight out of the sole. Was really looking forward to having a pair, but it's been disappointment after disappointment

I am very disappointed in the change of the Original Leather Sandal design. The fit is not great, and it doesn't look as classy as the original styles from years past.

Unfortunately, I did not like the looks or feel of this sandal. I purchased them as a dressier sandal option, but was disappointed by the look and feel! I returned this pair with the off colored 'tan' pair I purchased together!
