Teva Mens M Omnium 2 Sport Sandal

Have you ever watched "The Dog House" on MAX? Did you come away without thinking, "Ohhh... that could be our dog!" Correct: impossible. Cannot be done. So by the time we had binged into season #2, we were well on our way to a canine relationship. And when we finished season #4, last episode (#8?), we were on the local humane society websites. And thus, Olive, a Spitz mix. 40 pounds of pure dream for a couple well into their 70s. So now, I am walking a dog.What are the potential problems for an old sod walking a dog on uneven ground in the American south land? Well, you worry about falls, so an old guy needs a shoe that provides a wider base because when he looks down, he needs to have a sense of confidence in his base: that's important because it engages the cortical component of walking. A non-slip sole because the backyard is uneven? Sure. A shoe that is adjustable in the heel, width, and point of attachment to your foot and ankle? You betcha. A quick-release buckle to remove them so that you don't have to mess around with velcro straps, say, while reaching across a comfortable, and comforting, belly? Um hmm. A long-lived shoe because you are on a fixed income and you were taught by your mother that shoes should never wear out, just be outgrown? Yes, yes indeed. A sandal-ish style because, after all, college was only 60 years ago, and you are sure that you can go back to "The Quad" with your nose flute and slide rule, and maybe meet girls who smoke French cigarettes and wear gladiator sandals - girls who would be fascinated by your hiking sandals and your Beat poetry? "Hey, man, I dig your howl." "I shall sing you a folk song and we shall fall in love promptly." Obviously.And that is what the Tevka Omnium 2 Sport Sandal provides: comfort, security, quality, and... and memories. Seventy bucks for memories like those? Well, these are my criteria and those are my memories, kids. Get a pair of these babies and forge the memories that predict the story of your own consciousness. All that from a great pair of shoes.Buy a pair. Have a life. Write your own review.

Bought them for a Kauai kayak and hike. My feet are slightly on the narrow side and fit great. Kayak for several hours and hiked through the rain forest and streams. Really like them, comfortable and durable sole and toe protection. Hit my toe on rocks and did not feel it at all, great toe cover. Highly recommended.

These sandals have many points to adjust them for fit and comfort. They also are wide enough at the toes as to not pinch, and can easily be tightened with the elastic shoe laces that are supplied. There are two velcro straps which have a sturdy plastic buckle on the top one so you can adjust the velcro, and then use the buckle to put the shoe on without having to readjust the straps each time. The arches and the heel pads are not extreme, but they are comfortable while walking. The overall sandal is well made with light weight materials, and the stitching is sturdy. I would buy these sandals again for my daily treks to the market, and light hiking on the jogging paths nearby. They appear to be washable and will air dry quickly, They do not appear to be made with any animal products, so they should be suitable for vegans. Very nice walking shoes, but I would have liked to have had more color choices. I recommend these for every day general walking in all weather conditions except snow.

I’ve had 3 pairs of Keen sandals in a row over the past decade as my primary summer footwear. They are great, but I grew tired of the chunky style so I went looking for something different.The Teva Omnium 2 were impossible for me find both locally and also on a 4 state road trip. I finally broke down an ordered my normal size without ever seeing these in person or trying them on.The fit is perfect, and the 2 Velcro straps plus quick lace cords give you a ton of options to snug it up for a rough hike or loosen it for normal walks. The cushioning is soft but not so much that you lose the feel of the trail under your feet. Traction is good but I haven’t done much hiking and have not tried them on rocks yet.The heel did take a bit of beak in for me. The Keen heels make pulling them on annoying, but the design is completely non abrasive. The Omniums will rub your heel more than the Keens. But my heel broke in pretty fast and the advantage is that with the strap, you have more customization of fit. Also, the front Velcro strap has a quick release buckle which means you can slip them on fast for a quick trip to the yard with your dog, no hands required.The only downside with no counter-advantage is the lack of airflow near the closed toes. Keens do a better job in this regard. I’m still happy I made the change, but if airflow on the Keens is on the edge of acceptable to you, you won’t like these.I almost forgot. Keens give you a little slap-back with every step, these Tevas do not.The picture shows the Color “bungee cord” from Trav against my old Keens (grey/orange) bot in sunlight.

I've bought a couple pairs over ten years and these really hold up. The vibram soles are excellent.The one thing I especially like is that I can wear with a foot bed to help dampen impact when using for longer periods. Obviously if you use around water your foot bed will get wet but that is a user function that can be personalized according to preference.The difference is that most water sandals are open in the back whereas these have a vertical support that keeps the footbed within the sandal.I've learned that a shoe can be good or bad but using footbeds can mitigate a lot of usage variables.I like Sole footbeds and just usually pull out the pads that come with most shoes and use whatever style of sole is appropriate for that shoe. Even shoes with little support can be turned into a decent shoe vs. suffering the pain. Classic example are docksiders, which often are minimalist so the foot conforms to the deck surface on boats or other slippery surfaces.

Buena calidad, cómodos y versátiles

My husband loves it. Comfortable to go hiking, the traction on loose rocks prove to be helpful against slipping. Will also be great walking on the beach and shallow and rocky rivers with these close toed sandals. And great walking throughout town and entering casually dressed required eateries. Very versatile. Worth the money.

Justo lo que andaba buscando,cómodas a tope

La calidad es buenísima, como siempre de Teva y no pesan nada.

Ich habe e tra nach diesem Modell gesucht, weil ich das gleiche schon seit längerer Zeit benutze und damit sehr zufrieden bin
