Teva Women's W Tirra Sandal

I have an existing pair of blue Tierra and am very happy with them. The new pair I bought (multicolored beige stripe) fits well but the plastic loop that holds the ankle strap in place slips such that it is vertical to the sole. I am also concerned about the durability of the ankle strap from this "slippage." Time will tell. I am going to bring the sandals to a shoe repair shop to see if they can somehow anchor the plastic ring in place so it doesn't slip. My blue Tierra's do not have this issue.

I have very narrow, arthritic, flat feet with bunions and hammer toes. These sandals accomodate these shortcomings with a molded footbed, open toes, and adjustable velcro straps. Considering my foot conditions, these are great sandals for walking along beaches, kayaking, or throwing on a casual dress...

I am absolutely in love with these sandals. I purchased them in white and they are absolutely stunning. The reason I purchased these was for my family vacation to Tulum, Mexico. I wanted sturdy sandals for the beach and for days were we would be walking a lot, we had a trip planned to visit Chichén Itzá. They held up and were so comfortable. Easily did 10,000 steps every day in these and my feet did not hurt at all. My boyfriend really liked them so he bought men's sandals as well and was really pleased with them. We will definitely be buying shoes from Teva going forward.

I love these sandals which have enabled me to be active when I couldn't wear closed toe shoes like I normally would when out and about. They are comfortable and cute. The one minor issue is that despite wearing a large size (women's 11), my feet are not fat/big, so the Velcro straps aren't the right length/positioned right, particularly those at the toes. If I try to tighten them, there is almost not enough Velcro/the strap has a lot of overhang. It's hard to describe but you can see it in the photo.

After wearing a Tirra for 10 years through music festivals, hiking, international travel, the soles wore out and I needed a replacement. I thought I'd try a different Teva style, but returned both the Universal and Hurricanes. They just didn't compare to the comfort and support of the Tirra. My only confusion was about sizing. The website here says 'true to size', but my pair from a decade ago is actually one full size bigger than the sizes now. I thought maybe my old pair had 'flattened out' over the years or something, but I asked Teva and they didn't provide a clear answer. Attached picture is new Tirra on left, old on right, both size 8. I ended up returning them for an 8.5 and it fits perfectly now. Teva handled my return quickly and painlessly. Very happy with my new pair.
