Teva Men''s Katavi Slide Outdoor Sandal

I wear sandals a lot. The only time I don''t wear them is when I''m going to be somewhere that I need shoes, or sandals would be inappropriate. Suffice to say, I''m wearing sandals most of the time. I prefer to be able to remove my footwear quickly and easily, and I don''t like sweaty feet. The most common sandals are thongs. I hate thongs. I don''t like the way they slap against your heel, or the piece of fabric between your toes. They''re just uncomfortable. These sandals are a great alternative for those of us who dislike thongs.

Very deep tread pattern. You don''t have to worry about slipping on slippery surfaces. I''ve managed to climb river rocks with these.

Breathable upper. Keeps the top of your foot cool.

Very soft footbed. I can wear these for hours and come home with feet that aren''t sore.

Waterproof. Perhaps the only part that can become wet is the upper, and it dries extremely quickly.

Supported footbed. This is other side of preventing your feet from becoming tired. The shape supports your arch which will not only reduce foot pain, but back pain as well.

Shock-absorbent. Not only the shock of normal walking, but of short falls, too. You know the feeling in your leg that you get when you hit hard in flip-flops?Not so in these.

Anti-microbial footbed. Even though I have gotten them wet and sweaty, they don''t smell.

I haven''t experienced the problem of odor or sweatiness that others have mentioned. The upper can become a little smelly, but the microban is on the footbed, not the upper. Just wash it with a little soap. They are a bit expensive at $50, but with all the material they use compared to other slip-ons, it seems well worth it.

I have had one problem with them. I''ve owned them about 15 months, and the upper pulled out of the footbed where it attaches at the front. Teva uses a tab of material on each side that looks to be epoxied into the slots cut into the footbed. I guess the epoxy let go. Keep in mind that I am very rough on these, as they are my primary footwear. I contacted Teva, and even though the warranty is a year, they let me know that a replacement would most likely be covered. I sent them back through USPS, and had a site credit for the full price (plus tax!) within three business days. I ordered the exact same sandal, so I should have them in a few days. Awesome customer service. Note that they mentioned it''s because I''m only slightly past the warranty. I couldn''t see them making an exception for units that are two years old, nor would I expect them to.

I''d definitely recommend these, and Teva as a brand, to others. I''m considering getting the Fuse-ion shoes, since they are a bit more appropriate for some situations.

I bought these so I could walk over the rocky ground where I am currently and haven''t been disappointed.I''ve worn them daily for about 6 months and they are still practically new.My one wish is that Teva made them in half sizes; I wear a 10.5 and bought these in 11, and they''re slightly big on my feet.However, the sole is thick and the construction is very sturdy, but they''re still very light, not much heavier than an all-foam thong sandal.I expect these to last me years.

The sandal itself is a fantastical sandal. The tread under the shoe... I could probably climb mountains with it and still have it under. I''m tired of ragged sandals that don''t have any grip; these sandals have AWESOME grip. You could go anywhere with them! The sole is pretty comfortable, too.

MY ONLY CONCERN/PROBLEM:

The sandal itself is great, but if you have WIDE feet (like me), it may not be fun for the first week or so. I had to use a shoe stretcher to fix that problem. After fitting a shoe fitter and leaving it there for a full day, it stretched and my foot fit comfortably.

I bought these about six months ago and wanted a comfortable slide and something to wear at the lake.I''ve been to the lake only twice this year and mainly just slip these on to walk the dog or maybe to run to the store.I noticed last night that there is about a six inch crack in the sole and it is coming apart.It''s too bad the construction of these stink because they are comfortable and I loved how the rear of the sole didn''t smack against my heel with every step.But with the sole coming apart that offsets all the positives the shoe has ...
