Teva Men's M Omnium 2 Leather Fisherman 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.

My husband looked far and wide for these when his previous pair needed replacing because they have a clip, as opposed to a drawstring closure. They are made from leather, so they have a quality feel and look, but the soles are durable and slip-resistant. They don’t feel overly bulky.

These are simply the most comfortable casual shoes I've ever owned. I've had them for about 6 weeks and wear them almost every day. First, they are open enough to feel like sandals, but have enough structure to make me feel comfortable wearing them in either rugged outdoor areas or crowded metro areas where you need a bit more protection from clumsy people or the carts they push. Second, I've had plantar fasciitis in the past and need more substantial arch support than average shoes. On nikes or dress shoes I typically remove the low grade insole and replace it with a special insert that gives robust support. For this reason I have almost never found a pair of sandal type shoes that I could wear without a lot of foot fatigue or pain. These Tevas have excellent, higher than average arches which makes it possible for me to wear these all day with no problem, no pain, and NO FATIGUE! I am beyond pleased—I'm delighted! And, while I wouldn't want to run any real distance in them, they are supportive enough that I would not give any thought to running to the end of the block and back to retrieve a fleeing dog. Third, there are a couple of ways to adjust the fit on the heal and over the top of the foot. I was nervous when I put them on right out of the box... It was tight and uncomfortable across the top, and the heal was a little tight. Both have velcro adjustment strips, which I adjusted and ended up with an excellent fit. Lastly, the snap-in clip for the top strap makes them a breeze to get on and off in a hurry. I haven't had them long enough to know if they will hold up over the long haul, but after 45-ish days of use, they show no wear (though I've been in the mud once or twice and wiped them off), nor do they appear to be weak or poorly constructed. I love these shoes and will buy them again! 2019 Update: Heading into my 2nd season with these. Still love them and have looked forward to being back in them throughout winter. They are showing a little more age on the top, but they are not ragged by any means. The leather upper appears to be more "wavy" or slightly curled as you might expect after it had been wet a few times. This doesn't impact the construction or comfort... they just don't look brand new. They have loosened up slightly, so i'm adjusting the velcro straps to compensate. I'm glad spring is here... I've already been back in them several times. Still feel perfect with the slight velcro adjustment. Based on wear over the first season, and now into the second, I'm guessing i can get at least 2 or 3 more years out of them -- probably more, depending on how rough I am on them. 2025 Update: These are still my favorite pair of summer shoes. They now look like they are 8 years old, but they still fit well and I retract nothing of my original review! One of the best shoe purchases I've ever made. I'm going for 10 years!

Love Teva's! But, out of the box they were awkward to put on - to much elastic at the top of the tongue. So, I cut away the plastic and now they're easy to put on and take off. All the strapping, lacing and elastic was design overkill! Also developed a blister on the inside of the right shoe below the ankle associated with the heel strap. Fixed that with a band aid and a week's wear. The issue went away as the inside of the strap smoothed out. They are true to size, extremely comfortable (with adjustments), supportive and even good-looking! Buy 'em, tweak them and you'll love them!

All I purchase is Tevas. Don’t like the Keens. Keens are way too tight and the insole is off. Feels like you have a lump of coal in your shoe. The Tevas are perfect. I take a 10.5 and always go a half size up to 11. Fit perfect and very comfortable. The stretchy part at the top that folks didn’t like didn’t exist. Very easy to slip into with no chaffing anywhere. I really like the 3 options for a custom fit. An adjustable buckle at the top, an adjustable heel strap to keep you snug in the shoe and a elastic lace with lock at the instep (top) to snug up the sides if needed. I have a pair of 3 Year open toe sandals that I love and wear non stop during the summer. Still in great shape and I’m hard on my shoes. I needed a good hiking shoe that was comfortable to wear open and breathable and had closed toe as I’m using these in Costa Rica and most adventures required a closed toe shoe. Rich brown color. highly recommend.

Great build quality, color (black olive) and design look great. It's easy to get in the shoe and tighten it due to the buckle closure. The wide fit is perfect for my feet.

Fantastic . Just what I wanted . Reba has been an old favourite and will continue to be one

Original Omnium lasted nearly 10 years and travelled all around the world with me. Great brand and great quality

Die Schuhe sind aus hochwertigen Materia gefertigt, haben eine sehr gute Fußbetteinlage und sind auch sehr gut zu tragen für Menschen mit breiten Füßen. Habe mittlerweile mehrere dieser Schuhe. Für mich empfehlenswert.

Estas sandalias me duran en promedio 2 años de uso constante y rudo. Con ciclos de mojarlas y secarlas varias veces a la semana. Las suelas no se despegan como en otras marcas, y los broches no se me han roto nunca. Voy por mi cuarto par, y sigo feliz con estas sandalias. Una solo vez probé este modelo, pero en material sintético en vez de piel, si duró un poco mas de un año, pero comenzó a agrietarse en varios sitios.
