Fashionable and still comfortable alternative to flip flops
I am a true 8.5 WIDE in flats/sneakers and a 9 WIDE in all boots. I have really wide feet with pronounced bunions so I didn't know whether I should size down to 8 or go up to a 9. But I tend to find adjustable-width shoes with straps or buckles to be forgiving, so I went with the 8 and they fit perfectly. The 9 would have been too long and flop around on my feet. I even have room for some socks if I'm feeling extra daring. For someone who loves black and wears a lot of black, this is the perfect color combo for me. I didn't like any of the other colors currently listed so I chose this style and happy I did. The midform and flatform look nice but when I tried them on they were a little heavy, so the original soles feel like the perfect height to stay active on your feet. There's also a lot of give/slack on the straps. Very pretty and comfortable, and looks less sloppy than clunking around flip flops.

Love love love
Since purchasing these I have gotten so many compliments on how cute they are. People love the color and the fact that Teva‘s are coming back into style are awesome. Are used to wear them as a kid they are the best for hiking for going and running errands for walking in the water and swimming. I take my Teva‘s all over the world so that I’m able to either take off running in them or jump in a pond or the ocean with them. These fit perfect they’re extremely comfortable and durable. The Velcro has been amazing. That was one of my concerns with purchasing Teva‘s is that the Velcro quality would be really crappy. These are built just like they were many years ago when I was a little girl.

Best sandals for summer
These are my favorite shoes. Blister resistant, fit well, super stylish (the cherry Jubilee is gorgeous). I wore them wet, barefoot in the lake all day yesterday. The straps stayed put and dried quickly. The arch support is pretty solid and they’re easy to slide on and off. Overall, Teva Universal is the best everything sandal.

Comfortable, Durable & so cute
I have been wanting a pair for a long time as I have only heard good things about them. The first time I used them I went on a 6 mile hike and have zero complaints. I have even taken them to the beach as we all know the sand in Florida gets unbearably hot at times. Easy to clean, stylish, and comfortable.The only thing I will say is I wish the strap was higher above my ankle for my own preference of style (I have bigger legs). The other thing would be if you drag your feet, you may wear out the front of the sandal out faster. So pick up your feet and enjoy the sandals!

Idk if it lives up to the hype, but it did a solid job
I got these for a week in Hawaii, anticipating lots of strolling and maybe walking by the beach. Wow, I’m glad I brought separate water shoes (racquas) because these Tevas are terrible and uncomfortable with sand!! And a new problem to face from normal flip flops/slides is the Velcro, which will also be covered in sand lol. I would not call these very water/slip resistant either.I did get them at a deal for $30-35 and for that, I do have a soft spot for them. Definitely go for the smaller end of your foot size because the straps are adjustable. I’m usually a 6.5 and went for a 6 to avoid the weird giant foot beds I see in some photos lol.While adjustable, the material is still kinda harsh and the straps and plastic hardware did irritate the wider parts of my feet/toes sometimes. I’d still consider is adjustable enough for wide/bunion feet. I think the ankle strap made the back of my ankles/heels a little tender and I ended up needing some band aids towards the end, but I still survived and wouldn’t call it difficult to break in.My feet are flat and suck, and I thought they did pretty fine in these actually. I was worried because the taller platform models wouldn’t come in time and I had to choose this shorter original one. I chose the sun and moon aloe design too because I thought it was the closest to a nude/beige/neutral color that was available at the time lol, I’d say it was fine.I don’t really understand the hype, but I guess I can expect it to last for a while so in that regard, it’s good! Good value on sale.

Very comfortable!
I was quite surprised that these sandals are as comfortable as they say they are. Very easy to walk in for long periods of time and not too pricey at all. Well worth the investment in your feet 👣. Plus the style is simple and can be worn with most anything.

Fit my adult feet :)
Needed to replace my Tevas that I use for kayaking & summer hiking. My original pair lasted me over 20 years! These will not. Maybe since their made for youth the sole is just not as rugged? BUT they are super comfortable. Much more then my older pair. The sole does not seem to have a great arch. Though the foamy squishy sole molds to my foot when hiking pretty well. No foot pain & no slipping when climbing rocks on water covered streams. I liked these so much I bought another pair in a different pattern as well! I usually wear 7 1/2 or 8 in woman's & this youth 6 fit just the same. My only complaint is I ALWAYS get a blister on my little toe from the straps if I wear during bigger hikes. All Tevas do this to me with this style strap. So I won't use for day long hikes, but perfect for kayaking & light hiking, or even running errands.
