FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for long hikes?
Yes, the cushioned insole, nylon shank for stability, and adjustable straps make them suitable for many hiking trails. For extremely long or technical treks, consider specialized hiking boots.
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer or manufacturer. The Hurricane XLT3 generally follows standard adult UK sizing. The universal strap system allows for some flexibility.
Can I wear these sandals in saltwater?
While the straps are quick-drying, prolonged exposure to saltwater can degrade materials over time. It is recommended to rinse the sandals with fresh water after saltwater use and air dry them.
What is the benefit of the nylon shank?
The nylon shank provides torsional rigidity and underfoot support, helping to stabilize the foot on uneven terrain and reducing fatigue during activities like hiking.
How do the FuseLock™ Velcro straps differ from standard Velcro?
FuseLock™ technology is designed to offer increased durability and a more secure closure, providing approximately twice the strength of traditional hook-and-loop fasteners.
Are these sandals waterproof?
The materials are water-resistant and quick-drying, making them suitable for use in and around water. However, they are not fully waterproof and water will enter the sandal.
What does 'REPREVE' mean for the straps?
REPREVE is a brand of recycled polyester fiber made from plastic bottles. Using REPREVE straps means the sandals are made with recycled materials, contributing to sustainability.
Troubleshooting
Straps not holding securely
Ensure the hook-and-loop fasteners are clean and free of debris. Try brushing them with a stiff brush. If straps are worn, consider replacement.
Discomfort or rubbing
Readjust the strap positions for a better fit. Ensure the foot is properly positioned within the sandal. Break in the sandals by wearing them for short periods initially.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While the Spider Rubber outsole offers good traction, extreme wet conditions can reduce grip. Ensure the outsole is clean. For very slick surfaces, proceed with caution.
Odors after use
Wash the sandals with mild soap and cold water, then air dry completely. Keeping them dry between uses can also help prevent odor.
