I was looking for a comfortable, everyday sandal. I was advised Tevas were a perfect choice so I bought the originals. It feels like they have no sole support and just wouldn't be great for long treks. They are cute though.

The footbed texture is too course feeling for my liking and I want to wear them barefooted.
The strap across my little toes feels out of place.
I'll use them at the pool.

A friend loves Teva brand. I tried on the sandles she's been wearing and they were very comfortable. This particular style is NOT up to standard. The sole is plastic and uncomfortable, the straps are scratchy and rub against my toes. I cannot wear them for an extended period. I think they were on sale for a reason. Not the standard of the brand.

I've had several pairs of Teva sandals over the years, but this is my least favorite pair so far. While they fit well and are comfortable, the soles do not offer much traction and are very flimsy, and I've managed to shred them much quicker than my older pairs. I do not need or want the newer styles with the arch support, but I dearly miss the grip and traction my old sandals offered.

I am not really happy with these shoes. I should have know better than to order without seeing them. I have had several pairs of Teva's, but these are very stiff and run larger than the ones I had previously

I really want to love them, after 15 days in Hawaii they are coming apart on the sole. :(

Returned because the arches were very high. May have compacted to fit my foot with time but initially didn't feel right.

I REALLY wish the heel strap was adjustable!!! That's my biggest critique. One shoe came with longer straps than the other, but I don't really mind that. I also really wish the toe strap was moved up about a centimeter, but that's just me. I was impressed with how much more durable the bottom sole feels than it looks in the pictures. I was glad they offer some smaller sizes with fun patterns as well.

The buckle next to the pinky toe is in a really bad position. It rubs against my toe and irritates it. I wish I were in a different location because otherwise the shoes are comfortable and great for the outdoors

Very comfortable sandal. Unfortunately the sole has come off on the last 2 pairs. I used gorilla glue and it worked for a while. I will try again but probable will buy a new pair.

Colors look great for dressing up or down but sole seems flimsy compared to past tevas. Not sure they'll last past one season

They squeak very loudly, my other two pairs do not. I'm very disappointed.

Possibly needed to size down, the straps hurt my pinky toe and ended up rubbing a blister on the top of my big toe where the straps sit. I am normally a size 7.

I haven't worn them yet, may need to return because of the issue i have with the other pair. They are pretty and I like the colors.

I am extremely disappointed in the quality and construction of these sandals. Although I like the look of the sandal, they are not safe to wear. Feet slide around and rubber sole "catches" on floor surfaces. The inner sole material is uncomfortable the longer you wear them. I have been a Teva wearer for years but now I am doubtful.

I found the lack of velcro tightening not sufficient for my foot. I loved the print of fabric since I grew up on La Jolla Shores beach. I hope you will put this fabric on hurricane xlt sandals as io found they are more supportive with my active lifestyle sometimes getting wet. heel not as forgiving as I need and perhaps seems like a cheap comparison to many other Teva sandals. I also loved a sandal which supported my bunion on my right foot with two thin straps Im so so sorry you discontinued this one hop you bring it back again please!

The bottom of the sandals do not seem to be the same quality material that I've ordered in the past. They are flimsy and rub your feet raw.

I didn't know when I ordered it that the heel strap is NOT adjustable. That makes it so I can not position my toes in the straps properly.

These shoes are cute and very comfortable but the soles began to fall apart after just two months of everyday wear. Disappointing.

These are adorable and I love this color palette. But the straps on the outer edges of the toes REALLY rubs hard and hurts so much that I can't even wear these on a short walk. I put moleskin over the scratchy stitching to see if that helped but... no help. I can't return due to trying to break them in, but these are sadly just another pair of shoes I have to chalk up to being too painful to wear. Also these straps are oddly shorter than all my other wonderful tevas. :(

They are comfortable, but the sole is too flexible. The toe part bends under and I trip on it.

These shoes are cute and great for the beach, and the only reason I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1 is because they don't give blisters which is a huge plus in my book. However, there are so many cons including that the toe box is too long causing me to trip, they're intensely slippery when wet, and most of all, these hurt my feet like no other shoe. My ankles and lower legs hurt so badly after a normal day of wearing these to the point of me becoming grouchy. My lower legs and feet get so sore. Just yesterday, I wore them to the farmers market, a few stores, and walking around my house and I was in so much pain by the end of the day. I wore them on vacation a few times and felt the same way.

Strap design w/ moon & stars were a perfect way to trend back to the original one I hought years agohowever the sole was a complete disaster. Not the original supportive style. It feels
like I'm almost barefoot when I walked on it. So, sorry, back it goes got a refund !! No way does it live up to its new name-Original universal.

The shoes are super cute but it kinda hurts my pinky toes. I'm normally a size 7.5 women's so I got an 8 but they don't seem to be right for me. Also the green tread used to attach the Velcro is too different from the gree fabric, I would prefer they match better.
