I love my new Teva "sandals."!  Question:  Why is a shoe that covers toes, midfeet, and heels a sandal?  Perhaps because it has holes in it--who knows?  I've had two other pairs of sandal-like tevas, and although I love them, too, this shoe is perfect for cooler weather (with socks), long and short walks, hiking, and wear around the house.  They are supportive and yet comfortable and completely adjustable.  I tried another very popular brand recently, but soon returned to Tevas because the fit, design, and durability are unbeatable.
