Review: Totally different type of sandal than Chacos - I am very happy with these. I had initially bought Chacos, buying into the hype of the strapping system and the durability. Unfortunately, the molded heel bed for Chacos do not fit my feet at all and hurt a lot. I returned those and went with the main competitors, Teva. I'm very glad I did. These fit my feet much better. They have a somewhat molded foot bed, but the material is softer and compresses under my weight more. The velcro on the straps is a bit annoying, but I find these easier to get on and off than Chacos. The heel strap sits more across my heel than my Achilles tendon and it feels very secure. I have run around in these without them slipping off. The strap that goes around the front of my ankle sits a bit high, making them feel secure around the ankle. The only problem I had, as other reviewers noted, was the plastic triangle where the three straps near the toes meet. Only on my right foot it caused pressure on the protruding joint near my small toe. But, since the triangles are not equilateral, I was able to rotate the one causing pain and have not had an issue since. Comparing these against standard Chacos, they are obviously not as durable. If you need something as durable as Chacos, I'm sure Teva makes a closer competitor that will be equally as durable (and expensive). The footbed is a relatively soft EVA material, which is comfortable to walk on out of the box. The outsole is a little bit stiffer rubber, but nothing like the Vibram/Chacogrip outsoles on Chaco that can be resoled and are highly durable. My typical uses for these outside of day to day wear is hiking and biking. I will wear these for only the mildest of trails, whereas I would trust the Chacos more for rugged terrain, but they will give my feet some rest if I've been wearing my hiking shoes a lot. That said, these weigh significantly less than Chacos, so using these as camp shoes isn't as arduous as hauling around a pair of 1lb sandals. I've been biking to and from work in these, and they work great. They certainly aren't high performance, stiff soled shoes, but they work better than running shoes and my feet don't slide around on the pedals with these on. Review: The old standby - Reliable and sturdy and super comfortable at a great price. With “hard use” they last a year—then they serve another year as house sandals. They got the molding just right. Great product. ## Features - Versatile sandal featuring strappy upper with multiple hook-and-loop adjustment points - Microban zinc-based odor-resistant treatment - EVA cushioned footbed - Durabrasion rubber outsole for durable traction ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0CSDHFR8N | | Best Sellers Rank | #29,009 in Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry ( See Top 100 in Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry ) #31 in Men's Athletic & Outdoor Sandals & Slides | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (6,709) | | Date First Available | February 19, 2020 | | Department | mens | | Item model number | 1127475 | | Manufacturer | Teva | | Product Dimensions | 12 x 8 x 4.5 inches; 2 Pounds | ## Images ![Men's Original Universal Sandal - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61lyLkQ1c+L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: What is the difference with this urban version?** A: The soles of the Urban are more hefty and durable then the original. **Q: I usually wear size 11.5.

With “hard use” they last a year—then they serve another year as house sandals. They got the molding just right. Great product. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great pair of sandals for being out and about *by J***J on May 31, 2025* These are very comfortable and easy to walk in without any noise. The advantage of these is they will stay on your feet perfectly like a sneaker with every step so you don't have to worry about losing your shoes. They're perfect for out in the yard, washing the truck, and wearing on the weekends kayaking. I had a pair of these back in the late 90s and they are the same quality and feel like they will last a long time which is pretty sweet considering they are only a little over $40. I forgot how much I enjoyed wearing them. ## Frequently Bought Together - Teva Men's Original Universal Urban Sandal - Teva Men's Original Universal Tie-dye Sandal - Teva Men's Hurricane 4 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/1254191-mens-original-universal-sandal](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/1254191-mens-original-universal-sandal) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
