I REALLY LIKE THE STYLING OF THESE SANDALS. THE THICK HEEL CUSHIONING IS ANOTHER PLUS. THE SHOES FIT A LITTLE SNUG.  IF TEVA OFFERS A WIDE SIZE ,I WOULD BUY THAT,NEXT TIME. VALUE WISE, I THINK THE SANDALS ARE A BIT OVER PRICED. THE IRISH SETTER AND TIMBERLAND SANDALS I BOUGHT LAST SUMMMER ARE STILL IN GOOD SHAPE AND WILL PROBABLY STILL BE AROUND NEXT SUMMER.  I WEAR SANDALS EVERY DAY DURING THE TEXAS SUMMER(MAY TO SEPTEMBER)AND SWITCH OFF EOD. THOSE BRANDS WERE PRICED ABOUT THE SAME AS THE TEVAS.  THE TEVA SANDALS ARE ALREADY SHOWING STRESS AND THE LEATHER IS GETTING STIFF,SO THEY PROBALY WON'T GIVE ME THE SAME SERVICE AS THE OTHER PAIRS.
