FAQs

What makes the Hurricane XLT3 suitable for hiking?

The Hurricane XLT3 features a stabilizing nylon shank for support on uneven terrain and an updated Spider Rubber Endure outsole with an enhanced lug pattern for improved traction and stability, making them well-suited for hiking.

Are the straps adjustable?

Yes, the sandals feature a Universal Strapping System with three points of adjustability (forefoot, instep, and heel) to provide a personalized and secure fit.

How do I clean my Teva Hurricane XLT3 sandals?

Clean them with mild soap and cool water, using a soft brush or cloth. Rinse thoroughly and allow them to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Avoid machine washing.

What is the benefit of the FuseLock™ Velcro technology?

FuseLock™ Velcro offers twice the strength of traditional hook-and-loop fasteners, providing a more secure and durable closure that holds better during active use.

Are these sandals eco-friendly?

Yes, they incorporate sustainability initiatives, including straps made from 100% recycled polyester, a midsole with 30% recycled EVA, and an outsole made from 30% recycled rubber.

Can I wear these sandals in water?

Yes, the quick-dry polyester straps make them suitable for water activities and quick drying after getting wet. It is recommended to rinse them with fresh water after exposure to saltwater.

What is the difference between the XLT3 and previous models like the XLT2?

The Hurricane XLT3 has an updated outsole and lug pattern for enhanced traction, a cushioned topsole with more EVA for added comfort, and utilizes FuseLock™ Velcro for a stronger closure compared to the XLT2.

Troubleshooting

Hook-and-loop closure not sticking securely

Clean both the hook and loop sides of the fastener with a stiff brush to remove dirt, sand, or lint. Ensure the straps are completely dry before fastening.

Sandal feels unstable on uneven ground

Ensure all straps are securely adjusted to maximize the support from the nylon shank and outsole. Check that the outsole is free from debris that could affect traction.

Discomfort after extended wear

Re-adjust the straps to ensure proper fit and pressure distribution. Allow for a break-in period if the sandals are new, as the EVA cushioning will adapt to your foot.

Straps remain wet after use

Wring out excess water and allow the sandals to air dry in a well-ventilated area, away from direct heat. Ensure the recycled polyester material is not saturated by heavy exposure to oils or chemicals, which can affect drying time.
