Amazon.com Product Description
Teva offers something a little different to kick around in this summer. Ideal for the beach, poolside or backyard play, this sandal is made with a soft yet sturdy nylon webbing in a cute criss-cross strap design that will hold the foot in place much more effectively than your average flip flop. The cushy EVA footbed offers plenty of comfort and arch support, while the treaded rubber outsole provides great grip on wet and dry surfaces.

Customer Reviews

yes it is worth the price
I bought a pair last year at an outdoor clothing & supply store and was hesitant to pay the price. (I am usually hard pressed to pay more than $5 for a pair of flip flops!) Because of the unique criss-cross design and the reputation of Teva sandals, I gave in and bought them. These are the MOST COMFORTABLE SHOES I OWN, even including my tennis shoes!

*** You may want to choose a larger size because they come in whole sizes only. I wear a women's 7 or 7 1/2 and I had to buy a size 8 in this shoe. Check the size chart for help.***

The design of the straps makes them stay on your feet well (and gives you a cool, funky tan!) and the thick sole molds around your feet to make them feel like they were made for you. After a year of pretty much continuous wear, my first pair are still holding strong! They have gotten pretty dirty because I sometimes wear them when I garden so I bought a second pair for less dirty activities. They come in so many different colors, you really could try to match an outfit, but I have a pair with black sole and blue design on the straps and I wear them with everything. I HIGHLY recommend these shoes!

**UPDATE as of 7/26/10**- I have worn the tread off another pair of Teva Olowahu flip flops after about a year of almost constant wear and am ordering two more pairs on Amazon! This is my favorite shoe I own, that is why I keep buying more when mine wear out! I will warn you that once the tread starts to wear down they are very slippery on a wet or slick surface. They are SOOO worth the money, and Amazon even has a few styles that are about half as much as the regular retail price! Would buy again, have bought again, and I am buying again!

CUSHY UNDER YOUR FEET!!!
Tried a friends and I was hooked had to have a pair. I currently have plantar fiscitis which causes pain on the bottom of my feet and these are so wonderful for the softness and cushioning they provide. The only reason I did not mark five stars is because I wish they would come in a wide size. I have wide feet so it took a little time to stretch them a little so my pinky toes were not cramped. I usually can take a 7/7 1/2 in a sandal but I read a review before I purchased that also recommended going a little bigger due to them being narrow. Thanks goes out to that review, I will be getting more in the future!

Comfort at a great price
These sandals are terrific. Very comfertable arch support and the cushions in the soles are like slippers. The straps across the feet are flexible and keep the sandals on tight. These are PERFECT for walking!!! Must get in many colors!!!
