Well-made, stylish but not flashy. I own other Teva footwear and I know the Teva products to be high quality and long lasting. I hike some five miles of the dirt trails of the Colorado foothills every day the trails are clear enough and my Teva Verduns have performed flawlessly: They're comfortable and required no break-in period. The one drawback I have noticed is that my two pair (one "tarmac", the other "bungee cord") were either completely mis-sized or mis-labeled. I have perfect size 10 medium feet (as measured with socks and a classic Brannock Device -- see [...] -- at Famous Footwear); I had to buy size 11.5 Teva Verduns to have a proper fit. Great with shorts on the trail, with khakis during the work week, and with jeans on the weekend. I'd buy them again.
