From prior reviews some questioned the authenticity of these. For less than $20 I took the chance. While the fit is pretty close to my other two pairs, there was an obvious difference right out of the package. The material of the shoe is different (not smooth like my others). It has a bit of texture. And the sole logo/tag is different. So I compared them to the picture on Teva's website and it looks identical, new logo, etc. They are about 1/2" shorter too. My guess is Teva has changed them. I'm just hoping they'll wear and live long like my others have!
