Teva reviews and discussion

I bought my first pair of TEVAs - a pair of plain black platforms - about 4 years ago now and they are perhaps the most comfortable shoes I own. I have bone spurs in my big toe making most shoes very uncomfortable and I usually have to wear a carbon fibre splint (obviously not possible with sandals) but my toe doesn't bother me when wearing these. I've worn them in all kinds of conditions - jungle treks through Cambodia, all day walking around Manhatten, river floating in BC and they're always great. Usually I am really hard on shoes and they look so worn out really quickly but I've had these a few years and they still look great - just a bit of fluff in the velcro which I could pick out. So many people have given me compliments and asked me where I got them for and several friends and since bought them for themselves.

I have owned TEVAS since the 1990’s. I grew up at the beach and they were amazing everyday wear in that environment. Very comfortable, quick to dry, safe to wear in the water and took quite a beating. They aren’t always the best looking choice. And if you do wear them daily and don’t either enter the ocean or wash them off now and then, they can begin to obtain a smell of dirty foot that you can’t get away from. So just.. rinse them now and then. Also if you are a beach bum like me, you will end up with some fun tan lines. These are not actually complaints from me. I don’t have an issue with this. But I know people that might mistake a utilitarian sandal that you can wear hiking or walking on the beach and cry when it doesn’t fit their idea of a sparkly fashion shoe. I love them and will have no issues purchasing them again.

Thought the quality of the Teva Hurricane’s have slight decreased over the years, the product is still my go to going sandal. Incredibly durable when needed and if you do wear casually, come in a variety of fun styles and colors.

Purchased Teva sandals for my kids before our last vacation and I was very impressed with the quality of these shoes. My son is very active and his shoes take a beating but these kept up with him all the way until he grew out of them.
