text: Generally a good shoe for the river/lake/beach or walking around in. Good quality polyester uppers. Rubber bottoms are ok (I've had mine about 2 mos and they have a gauge in them from getting caught on something I don't remember). Textured footbed is great, helps keep you from slipping when walking in water. Was a little scratchy for a day or two but comfy after that. Shoe feels too big in the strap across the foot closest to the toes- there is so much room the shoe drags/scrapes the sidewalk often enough to be annoying when lifting your foot to walk. Conversely the ankle strap is either way too short or the straps connecting the ankle strap to the sole are too short...if the strap was actually around the ankle the size would be fine, but because it is below the ankle bone, that's a pretty wide place, and I have average-size ankles. Because the straps are too short (there is about a 1/2 inch - 1 inch of exposed velcro), when you sit with your ankles crossed and then uncross them, the exposed sticky velcro has attached itself to the decorative polyester upper ankle strap on the front of the other shoe, pilling and fuzzing a material that should otherwise be durable. I bought the mosaic vintage indigo and like the color. Maybe teva should consider some beta testing and have some people wear the shoe before manufacturing a zillion of them with such an inherent flaw? I have mixed feelings on this shoe- comfortable but the cost implies better execution.
