Comfortable walking shoe for short distances. Fits good. Not a lot of support (which is understandable). A very ugly shoe in the picture and even worse in person. Can't speak for its durability yet, but seems fairly solid.

I bought these for use as water shoes. We recently bought a lake house and our neighbors recommended that we always wear water shoes because the lake has a zebra mussel population. I've worn these in the lake several times and am very happy with them. If they drained a bit better I would have given 5 stars, but I know that the shoes are more for hiking than for use in water. As to the review questioning the sizing, they may run a bit small. I bought the size I normally wear, knowing that I would rarely (if ever) be wearing socks with them and the size is fine.

I love hiking and average about one hike a week. I recently wore my brand new Teva Atrato shoes to a 8-mile hike on a trail in South Lake Tahoe (moderate elevation gain). No sooner had I started on the trail than I realized that these shoes weren't very well-suited for hiking. Here's why:

The Bad
-------
Unless you're using these shoes for a urban/semi-urban hike where you're walking mostly on pavement or on a very level dirt road, the soles of these shoes are just too thin for most hiking terrain. On my hike, I could almost feel every bump on the rocky, gravelly, or uneven parts of the trail. These shoes really don't offer very much in the way of comfort or protection.

The Good
--------
These shoes, however, get top marks for breathability. On the hike, we had to trudge through an area of wetland with water level well past our ankles - these shoes were completely submerged. Once we were back on dry land, the ventilator monofilament mesh on the sides of these shoes did a very nice job of quickly draining my waterlogged shoes.

---
Even though these Teva Atrato shoes are sold here as "hiking" shoes, they are a part of Teva's line of amphibious shoes made for aquatic activities such as kayaking or whitewater rafting (this model seems to have been discontinued).

If you're looking for a pair of hiking shoes, you're better off with a proper pair of waterproof Gore-tex hiking shoes.

As a pair of amphibious shoes - 5 stars.
