Teva womens Original Universal Sandal

Bequem

I LOVE these tevas - I want another pair :) They are so light and durable. I won't get chacos every again. Tevas are the way to go.

very lightweight and sturdy, wore them all day the first day they arrived and they were comfortable all day!

I originally was planning to purchase a pair of Chacos (my first pair!) since I was looking for a good "rugged" sandal that could handle just about anything, including water. I also wanted a sandal that I could throw on whenever I needed and take off with ease. I live in Florida, so a good outdoor-style sandal is a necessity (and not flip-flops!) The price tag, though, for the Chacos, had me hesitating over the "Add to Cart" button. A reviewer on the listing for Chacos mentioned "Teva" as their preferred brand, so I did an Amazon search and found these. These seemed similar in concept, but the price tag was considerably cheaper. I decided to buy a pair to try before I splurged on the other. Let me tell you, these are great! They are super comfortable, they fit well, the colors are cute, and they serve their purpose. When it's raining, I put these on to keep from ruining my other shoes and to get good traction on the wet ground. If I wore flip-flops in the rain, I'd be slipping and falling on every slick surface (and trust me, I have!) These are perfect for trips to the beach or a park, outdoor concerts, festivals, or even a quick stop at the grocery store! The support is not really there, however, compared to what I've seen with Chacos, so if you need a more supportive shoe, I suggest finding a Teva sandal with better arch support or finding a different brand altogether. I'm not worried about arch support personally, but I will say that I've worn these all day many times with no issues at all and they have never been uncomfortable. None of the straps have ever rubbed my feet, either, not even when wet, and they are adjustable so you can tighten or loosen if needed. I definitely recommend trying these first before buying a pair of Chacos if you're debating on which to get like I was.

Wore them all over my latest vacation to Costa Rica!
