text: I like Teva sandals, and these did not let me down.  They are a little less sporty so I can wear them when I want a nicer look.  But still supportive and comfortable.  I have Achilles tendonitis, and these (and other Tevas with the back-strap) are the only shoes I can wear comfortably in the summer.  The narrow straps in the front pinch a little, but my feet are a bit on the wide side.  Once they stretched, they felt much better.
