They used to be good, but not any more.
I've been through many pairs of Teva's over the past 20 odd years and they used to be indestructible, the footwear you turned to for long distance adventures, but sadly no more... 2 years ago with about 30 days of use hiking, an internal metal plate began poking through the footbed of the sandal, multiple layers of gaffa tape held it till I got to town. Bought a new pair of terra fi 5, hiked in then for about 40 days and the side strap near my heal had almost worn right through where it enters the sole.. Wrote to Teva supplying photos, explaining what had happened with both pairs, no response........ A couple of months ago I was going hiking again and wanted to give tevas another go as I'd always loved them years back. Bought a pair of terra fi 5 again, wore them for about 10 days of hiking then while walking in then yesterday with no pack, on flat ground, one of the heal straps pulled out of the sole... Man that sucks, I've loved Teva's for half my life but they really have turned to crap and they don't seem to care. Time to find another brand.
