I have owned Tevas for years and these are the most comfortable out of the box ever. The straps are ALL lined and adjustable and the footbed has just the right amount of shock absorption and molds well to my foot. Excellent non-slip sole. They dry quickly, too. Can't say how durable they are, since I've owned them for less than 4 days, but I have high hopes from the apparent toughness of the sole and footbed. I also like the price -- discounted substantially over Teva's list. They seem to run 1/2 size small, so size up that 1/2 size. That's true with all of my Tevas.
