Teva Women's Ventura Cork 2 Wedge Leather Sandal

This is my second pair like this. Still wearing my first that I bought elsewhere, but they are so comfortable, and classy looking for a casual sandal, I was concerned it may be a style they may not have next year. Nice neutral color, goes with everything. I have been wearing Teva for years, and they are very comfortable!! I have back issues, and these never make my body hurt or tired. My first pair are an 8 1/2 W. I have a bit of a wide foot, so they are pretty comfortable. My new ones are 8 1/2 M, a little more snug, but leather stretches. Quality seems to be there. I have been wearing almost every day for 9 months now, still like new. I have a lot of cheaper shoes, but I gravitate to these, for comfort, style, and flexibility, and I get a lot of compliments on them, especially from my husband.

The first pair of these I owned were brown, then I bought a black pair, and then this red pair. These are the most comfortable shoes I own, mostly because the design means that it doesn't matter how wide my feet are (very) or how high my arches are (extremely). In the picture of this shoe, there's no black velcro showing with the top strap folded over. When I wear these, I have 2 inches of black velcro showing because my arches are so high. With most shoes, I don't have that option. I own quite a few pairs of Teva shoes, including a beige pair of Pretty Rugged Leather II that I wore on a four-day kayaking trip. They spent four days wet and then looked like new once they dried out. The Ventura Cork sandals aren't advertised as being waterproof, but because other Teva sandals do so well in water, I don't have to worry about walking through puddles in them. Other people have said that the metal triangle hurts their feet. Luckily, the bunions that make my feet so wide are just behind the triangle so it's not a problem for me. 7-28-2010. Correction, it's the brown pair of these that have black velcro. The red ones have red velcro so it's not obvious that the arch adjustment has been loosened.

I really love these sandals! I walk a lot at work and I can comfortably wear these all day long. They are very light and provide great support while looking stylish! The only reason that I gave them 4 stars instead of 5 is because the leather on the foot bed is black and so the bottom of my feet are black at the end of the day. This isn't a deal breaker for me but it may be for some people. I think that the pros definitely outweigh this one negative. I would purchase them again!

I own a pair of these Teva sandals (Ventura Cork 2" Wedge Leather Sandal) in black and wore them all last summer. VERY NICE and VERY comfortable.......the sandals seem to cross between casual and career with no problem. So I ordered a pair in brown for this summer. I didn't get a chance to wear them right away, and I wasn't worried about it as I already owned a pair and loved the sandal. Well, I should have worn them sooner. By the time the weather warmed up enough to wear them to work, I discoverd that the right sandal does not fit the same as the left one. The metal ring on the front of the right sandal digs into my foot, producing a blister. Too painful to wear. When I went to return them I discovered I only had 30 days to do so and my time was up. I should have gone to Zappos. bummer, wish the righ sandal wasn't defective.........

I ordered these sandals as a birthday gift for myself so that I would have something nice, comfortable and versatile to wear on my honeymoon. I LOVE them. So comfy & stylish. I can wear jeans, dresses, shorts w/e with them and have plenty of comfort and stability. After breaking them in, I can tell these are going to be my favorite footwear. A little bit of toe chafing at first (which I personally experience with EVERY pair of sandals I break in) and then nothing but smooth walking. Its going to be hard not to wear them all the time before my honeymoon!

So disappointed! Bought these for a trip thinking that they were the perfect mix between comfort and cuteness. But, The stitching around the edge of the whole shoe made these shoes start hurting my feet after only a short walk. My feet were miserable by the time we got back to the hotel. I'm so glad I brought some other shoes on my trip or I would have had to buy shoes while away!

Have bought several similar shoes in the Teva range - including flats (great as a walking sandal) as well as the wedge style. All these shoes fit perfectly and are extremely comfortable. Just wish I could get a red pair in my size!! Would definitely buy more of these. Having a small foot makes finding nice shoes difficult here in NZ, so I am very grateful for this service and being able to find shoes in my size. Thank you Teva and Thank You Amazon.

I am torn writing this review. I have had these sandals since last summer and have certainly put a lot of miles on them. I loved them at first. Comfortable right from the beginning. I'd wear them all day while running around with my toddler and never had a comfort issue. I can wear them with skirts, dresses, shorts, jeans and etc... Now, a year later I am having a problem with the foot-beds. They are made of cork and leather (not sure if real or synthetic). They trap dirt and get stuck on there. I've scrubbed at them and can get some of it off but not all. They feel disgusting on my feet, like I am walking on cement with moist dirt on it. I haven't researched any foot-bed cleaners. I know that there is a special one for Birkenstocks (which I also have the same problem with). Honestly, I want a pair of sandals to last more than a year without having to scrub the foot-bed. I know that it is the material that it is made out, I have other sandals with rubber foot-beds and do not have this issue. Maybe this isn't a problem for some people but it will certainly keep me from buying this style of shoe again. In the future, I will always check what material the foot-bed is made from before I buy a pair of sandals.

I am so disappointed by the Teva Wome's Venture Cork sandals that I purchased on Amazon. The sandals fell apart on the third time I wore them. It was very uncomfortable to start with but soon after side strips came off and the glue exposed, then one of the heels tore apart. I was out for a dinner and hugely embarrassed by this inconvenience. I would like to receive full refund including 20.35 GBP postal charge I paid for a return. Gul

They fit perfect
