I've always been a fan of this style Teva. I thought the black color was unique, price was great. If you're looking for less expensive Teva, the price is great but these aren't quite as comfortable as the brown leather ones I paid normal price for. Straps are narrower & bottom not quite as soft. Still good value for the price & more comfortable than other brands but I think I'd have preferred to pay more to have the better quality.
