Teva Strata Universal 1099445 Men's Turkish Coffee Comfort Hiking Sandals DSG109 (10)

I love these sandals. I have been wearing them for 25 years. IAM VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT YOU ARE NOT OFFERING SOLID BLACK AS A COLOR OPTION. i FEEL LIKE YOUR SELECTIONS ARE CLOWN COLORS AND I DONT LIKE THEM AT ALL. OLDER PEOPLE WEAR THESE AND DONT NECESSARILY LIKE THE COLOR CHOICES. PLEASE BRING BACK SOLID BLACK

As a woman who has bought men's size 8 for years in order to get a more supportive sole, the size 8 with this order was too short. I exchanged it for a size 9 (no half sizes) and the length was fine. The ankle straps, however, are so broad and stiff that I could not comfortably wear them. Back to the drawing board.

So these work really well on trails and going in water they dry up really fast and they don't dangle around when you're walking or being in water. They do run small so get the next size up. The only thing I didn't like was the front straps closer to your toes are too long, but what I did was cut them and took it to my local tailor shop and had them sew them up. Really comfortable sandals you don't feel rocks when you're walking. This is a must have activity sandals.

The first thing I noticed was that the sandals seemed short. Having ordered multiple payof TEVA Sandals in a size 12, I compared them and the size 12 of this new model is definitely at least 1/2 inch shorter which unfortunately outmuscled toes at the very edge. Why would TEVA not keep a size 12 the same length? So, I was leaving on a trip, and decided to just try to deal with it; but the length is absolutely shorter than it should be. It would be nice if TEVA would send me a 12.5.

I bought them to use on the Camino de Santiago next summer. I am wearing them this week on a trip to Israel and they are excellent. The terrain here is rocky, hilly, sometimes slippery and the sandals are comfortable and have good grip. I am very happy with them. I have wide feet and bunions and they are working out very well.
