I bought my husband a pair of the Chaco's and a pair of Teva's and let him decide which he wanted to keep. He had been having some foot pain and needed a summer sandal with some arch support. Before he even took them out of the box, he chose the Teva's. Fine with me, because Teva's are nearly half the price. For him, the Chaco's were way too heavy and too wide. The Teva's have been great for him all summer.
