Men's Forebay

This is the second pair of these sandals I have owned. The first lasted about 4 summers but I left them in a motel so lost them. Tried a differend brand/style but had to return. They were not as good as these. What do I like?? The Velcro attaches over top of the instep for easy on and off. The biggest thing I like is that these sandals actually have good arch support. Most sandals I've tried are very poor in this feature.The material and soles of my old pair held up very well. Best sandal I ever had. I'd still be wearing them if I hadn't lost them. I'm a size 8 1/2 usually but had to buy a 9. They fit me fine. Well woth trying if you want a good sandal.

I tried out my first pair these tevas around 11 months ago and have wore them almost every day since. Firstly they fit true to size, and have great foot arch support. But at first they did cause minor irritation on my achilles heel which caused a couple blisters but after they broke in, it wasn’t an issue. I use them in the Garden a ton and do some moderate hiking in them too. They have great traction and are breathable as well. These sandals are good for using for just about anything but I loved having them when going to hot springs or swimming the most. After almost a year the exterior is starting to delaminate on the right sandal and the bottom of the back ankle strap had snapped apart from constant wear n tear, on the left sandal. This doesn’t really affect it from functioning though so I’d say they have a durable design.

Comfortable, easy on/off Velcro strap and they last forever. These replaced a pair of the same sandals that I used for at least 15 years. I only wish this model had a black and a dark grey option.

I used to have a pair of Dozer sandles which I would love to have another pair like that because they came in half sizes. I ware 9.5 and the forbay only comes in whole sizes. I now own a pair of both 9 and 10 Forbays and neither one of them fit right. They have a very good arch support but unfortunately with the half size bigger and the half size smaller the arch is in the wrong place for my feet. I finally bought a pair of onimium sandals in 9.5 and they fit much better. They don’t have the art support that Forbay has but they fit and feel much better. I only wish the Forbay came in half sizes

These are about the only shoes I can wear anymore. I have problems walking - lifting my feet off the floor is tough for me. I wanted a closed toed sandal so the front of the shoe would be less likely to catch on rungs, etc.These shoes are very durable, but eventually I wear the heels down and I have to get a new pair.The strap across the instep starts to twist around the D ring after a while, so I can't just pull it across and expect it to grip correctly. Not the end of the world.the rest of the construction has never given me any problems. this is my 3rd pair (or 4th?).I need a lot of arch support, though. I am unable to fit my orthotics in to these. they fit slightly snug, but run true to size otherwise. The leather stretches so snugness isn't an issue for long.Plenty of toes room, but not excessive in my case.

The Forebay sandals are very similar to the 2 pairs of Teva's Dozer III sandal I purchased in 2012. In the attached photo, the Dozer III in the "Black Olive" color is on the left. The Dozer III Leather in the "Dark Earth" color is in the center. On the right is the new Forebay in "Turkish Coffee" which was delivered by Amazon yesterday, 1 day early.My favorite exterior is the Dozer III Leather due to the handsome appearance of the leather uppers. I prefer the Dozer III's darker "Black Olive" color to the Forebay's "Turkish Coffee." However I am satisfied with the medium-gray color of "Turkish Coffee." Based on comments by other reviewers I had feared that "Turkish Coffee" would be a light gray which would easily show scuff marks. One reviewer accurately commented that a close depiction of "Turkish Coffee" is shown on the Teva website for the Forebay sandal.After 12 years my two 2012 Dozer III sandals while still serviceable are showing their age with minor cracks, scuffing and wear on the soles. I bought the Forebay sandals because I thought it was time for a new pair of closed-toe sandals and the Amazon price was a good one.At first glance the Forebay and Dozer III appear identical; but they are not, due to slight variations in stitching and how the various pieces are cut and assembled. The differences would not be apparent to most people. I didn't notice them until I held the Dozer III and Forebay side by side.A minor complaint I have is that the design of the top Velcro strap on the Forebay makes the strap appear wide and chunky compared to the strap on the Dozer III. You can see the difference in width in the photo. However it is something I can live with.Because I have purchased about 6 different types of Teva's over the years, I had no hesitation in ordering my usual size 10. My new Forebay's fit fine. The workmanship by Teva workers in Vietnam is wholly acceptable. I am satisfied with the $49.95 purchase price. Most online vendors including Teva charge $70 for the Forebay.Please note my 5 star review does not evaluate the durability of the Forebay sandals because I have had them for only 1 day. Nonetheless I highly recommend them. Based on my experience with the 2 pairs of Dozer III's I predict the Forebay's will last for years.

Although the shoe itself seems comfortable and sturdy, I can't give it more than 3 stars because of the poor representation by the photos. This is not Amazon's fault, but rather Tevas across all selling platforms, including their own website. It must be Pic of an older model, showing a nice, earthy brown. In reality, the shoe is a rather dull, grey clay color. Even the mesh strip down the tongue, or center of the shoe is a different color. And yet, the model# and name Turkish Coffee match on the shoebox. Teva clearly changed the color, lord only knows for what reason. Amazon had even processed a replacement in hopes there was a mixup but alas, 2nd pair was a same color. So, 5 stars to Amazon for getting a replacement out to me the next day, but 3 stars to Teva for misleading product details. Seriously, research this shoe from other sources, the pic and reality are different anywhere you can purchase it. The color is so DULL, I am deciding if I want to return the replacements as well for a refund. BOO!

Excellent sandal! I have a narrow foot, and have trouble finding shoes that fit properly especially sandals. This Teva sandal is PERFECT for anyone with a narrow foot. The fact that you can tighten the sandal on the front of it with it's laced para-cord look is ingenious. It give off that cool molle look as well. Of course you have the ankle strap which surprisingly I don't have to tighten much at all. I have slim ankles as well, and usually have to tighten any shoe around my ankle well. When I first slid my foot in I knew it was a winner. It's not bulky looking either like so many other sandal's I have. For example I have the Dr. Scholl's sandal with the memory form in this style and it is so bulky compared to this Teva.It's also loose on my foot, but I needed something so I have bought the Dr. Scholl's. Wish I had found this Teva before I bought the Scholl's but it's ok. The Scholl's is very comfortable with a pair of socks though for me. This Teva seems very well made too. Nothing cheap about it. Love it!!!

Bought these to replace 2 older pairs of the same sandals. These are much improved, fit perfectly and are built to last. Really comfortable with very little break in period. Best sandals I have owned. Will buy again for sure.

Very comfortable with hardly any wearing-in. Great for most Singapore walks because the feet can breathe. Better than walking shoes. Probably not up to hiking in the hills but they aren't designed for that. I will definitely buy another pair when these wear out.

It keeps giving my husband plasters at his heel I am wondering it’s a real Teva or fake

Die gleichen Sandalen hatte ich schon. Diese waren leider zu klein ausgefallen. Schade.
