Good Sandals
These are probably one of the best sandals I've ever worn. They don't feel too heavy at all. Yet, they feature a substantial and full, heavy-duty Vibram rubber sole that can handle any trial with ease. I bought them, in part, specifically for the full Vibram sole on them, and they don't disappoint. ...

Poorly executed; Not superior to Hurricane XLT2
I was quite happy with my Teva Hurricane XLT2 but wanted to "upgrade." It seemed like the logical answer was the Universal Trail. I found the fit of these to be off. It feels frustratingly roomy in certain areas near the rear of my foot, and I have wide feet. Part of the reason is possibly becau...

Very comfortable, difficult to wash

I love the feeling, it's really comfortable, but it got sand inside, and it's quite hard to remove it.
I will definitely buy this product again

I have worn these shoes 7 days in a row in hot and humid Puerto Rico. These sandals did great on hikes, on the street, in the rain, and even walking down slippery rocks. Again, I was surprised at how well they handled on various terrain. They were also very comfortable from the box. I did walk around the house a few days to break them in, and they did great. I also received lots of compliments on the look. The group I was with people commented on them constantly and a few random people gave me props on them as well. I would recommend them!

Great sandals. My old ones fell apart after years of wear so I was happy to see them on LLBean.
Didn't fail me!

I went hiking in El Yunque Rainforest, PR. Shoes felt very secure and bottom soles had grip for the rocky climb. I have more of a wide foot and it was extremely comfortable no blistering.
Perfect trail sandles

I took these out today for the first time on a 6 hour, pretty technical hike with river crossings a lot of elevation and a steep downhill. They were incredibly comfortable, the Vibram grip kept me secure on the rocky terrain, and the padded staps ensured nothing rubbed uncomfortably throughout. I'm looking forward to many more hikes this summer in these. Highly recommended.
Very good product

My go-to warm weather footwear

I've got 3 pair, and I keep watching for Teva to release 'em in some new colors so I can get more. For my wide feet with slightly high arches, these are the perfect combination of wide, supportive & soft. I can walk in them all day long and my feet still feel good at the end of the day. Mine have held up well so far, though my oldest pair is finally starting to show some tread wear on the bottom. They feel similar to the Terra Fi 5, though I like these a bit better.
Coming unglued at the toes

These were great sandals while they lasted. I have had them for about 3 years but use them very infrequently. Worked great for some mid length hikes and as water shoes while tubing, very comfortable and supportive. That said, the top cushioning layer on both sandals is separating from the mid layer. The warranty is only for 1 year so I'm hosed on getting them repaired or replaced by Teva. Considering the price tag and minimal level of abuse I put these through, I am very displeased. Would definitely recommend steering clear of this model

Soft, yet supportive

My go-to footwear from April through October. I walk a lot, and these are one of only two shoes I've found that I can wear all day without my feet getting uncomfortable. I find they work well on the street or the trail. Would love to see Teva produce them in more colors!
