I bought a pair of Teva's 4 years ago and the quality is top notch. The microfiber foot bed is very soft and comfortable and they give good support. I wear mine from spring through fall approximately 6 hours per day at least. They were still in reasonable condition but there was a crack developing underneath my big toe on one sandal. They were also slightly large. I should have bought one size smaller.
The Langdon is the closest style to what I had before, I don't remember the name of them. I usually wear a size 9.5 in most shoes of any style. It is odd because my foot length measures 10.5 inches. This time I ordered size 9 instead of 10 (like the 4 year old ones).
One thing you have to realize is that the top part of the sandal will stretch after you have worn them for a while. Some reviews state that you cannot push your foot forward into the sandal all the way because the top is too small. To make sure they are the right size when you get them just force your foot forward as far as you can and if your toes are at the front and your heel isn't hanging off the back you have the right size. Once they stretch they will fit well.
Here is my method of cleaning these sandals so they will look brand new again after the oils from your feet make them look shiny or dirty. Fill a sink with hot water and add Dawn dish soap. Let them soak upside down so the foot bed is in contact with the water (they float). Soak them for at least 20 to 30 minutes. Sacrifice a toothbrush and scrub the entire sandal. I stand them up on end preferably outside in the sun if you can and let them dry naturally.
Once you have tried these Teva's you probably won't buy anything else.
Update June 2024:
I have ordered yet another pair because now my current sandals have developed an area by my small toe that the microfiber surface is tearing apart.
My biggest beef with these type of sandals is that they stink. I mean so bad that if I am sitting at my computer with my feet under the desk I can smell them. The smell doesn't go away and you don't get used to it. I assume it is because the sandals act as a constant exfoliator while you are walking around and all that dead skin causes the odor. It is a real chore to wash these sandals and they take a couple hours to dry with a fan blowing on them.

BUILDING A LEGACY, SINCE 1984.
The original sport sandal emerged from the shores of the Grand Canyon back in 1984. Born out of necessity to prevent sandals from floating downstream, a resourceful river guide strapped two Velcro watchbands to a pair of old flip-flops.
In the years following, Teva has retained the same pioneering spirit and continues to celebrate the freedom to explore.
Good! But not as good as they used to be…
-2 stars — the sole is beginning to peel off after only 9 months.These are good sandals. I’ve had them for about 9 months and wear them a little bit every day around the house and walking the dog.I previously had a pair of teva sandals that I bought in San Diego for about half this price that lasted around 8 years before they started to experience obvious daily wear/damage. Then I repaired them with a bit of glue and wore them for 2 more years.The wear on these sandals is ok with me, and you should expect that with a leather product. But the wear damage to the sole of the sandal under my toe is way sooner than I expected for the cost of these sandals. It started at around 6 months with a tiny rip in the material, and has grown considerably.I am still happy with them, just bummed that they are already showing signs of an early sandal death.
