Teva Mush Frio Lace
Surely a lightweight, comfortable alternative to a running shoe for getting out and about. But is it too comfy?
Pros
- Lightweight
- Comfortable
Cons
- Weird shoelaces
- Durability?
These shoes don't have a tongue. With a thicker pair of socks, the laces are unnecessary; the laces simply draw the shoe a bit tighter. Wearing running socks, with laces, (more about them later,) you can feel dried-up sidewalk gum under your feet. I'm not quite sure how I feel about that, yet.
I've replaced the laces for their color, but have found another benefit; the laces I replaced them with are more static and don't stretch as much, making the shoe feel more stable. The laces that come with are a little too loud, and weird. I changed them for a pair of simple, black sneaker laces.
The shoes make no noise — I snuck up on a cockroach. Actually, I feel like I'm always sneaking around. Again, weird. I sent Teva an email about what the shoes are made of. I got a response about 'non-disclosure' of their products' components. I'm a little concerned about their lifespan, but I'll have long forgot about this post when they die. If I get a summer out of them, I'll be happy.
Another pair may make a good pair of camp shoes as they are very light. I wear a 9.5, and, heading other reviewers' advice, 10 fits just fine.
Looking for a ninja shoe, or a lightweight but sturdy camp shoe, or a shoe to slip on when running to the store? Buy them. I did, and I enjoy them.
