Product Information
Full details
The Teva Hurricane XLT3 Sandals are designed for adults seeking a comfortable and durable sandal for hiking and everyday adventures. Their key benefit lies in their improved cushioning and enhanced traction, offering reliable support on varied terrain. A potential caveat for some users might be the universal strap system, which, while adjustable, may require fine-tuning for a perfect fit. This latest evolution features quick-drying, recycled straps, a cushioned EVA footbed, a stabilizing nylon shank, and an updated Spider Rubber outsole for superior grip.

FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The universal strap system with three adjustment points allows for a customizable fit, which can accommodate a range of foot widths. However, if you have exceptionally wide feet, it's recommended to try them on if possible.
How do I clean the recycled straps?
The quick-drying straps made from recycled REPREVE plastic can be cleaned with cool water and a mild soap. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry away from direct heat.
What makes the cushioning better than previous models?
The Hurricane XLT3 features 5mm more EVA in the cushioned footbed compared to the XLT2 model, providing enhanced comfort and support for extended wear.
Can I wear these for water sports?
Yes, the quick-drying straps and durable construction make them suitable for beachwear and light water activities. The Spider Rubber outsole offers good grip on wet surfaces, but caution should always be used.
What is the main advantage of the nylon shank?
The nylon shank is integrated into the sole to provide structure, stability, and support for your foot, particularly on uneven or challenging terrain during hikes.
How durable is the FuseLock™ Velcro closure?
FuseLock™ technology is designed to offer twice the strength of traditional Velcro, providing a more secure and long-lasting closure system.
Are these sandals considered sustainable?
Yes, the Hurricane XLT3 sandals incorporate sustainable materials, including 100% recycled polyester REPREVE straps, a midsole made with 30% recycled EVA, and an outsole made with 30% recycled rubber.
Troubleshooting
Straps feel loose or are difficult to adjust
Ensure the FuseLock™ Velcro is clean and free of debris. If adjustment is still difficult, try readjusting from the beginning, ensuring the straps are aligned before fastening.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While the Spider Rubber Endure outsole provides good traction, always exercise caution on extremely wet or smooth surfaces. Ensure the sandal is properly tightened to your foot for optimal grip.
Footbed feels uncomfortable after initial wear
The EVA footbed is designed to mold to your foot over time. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure the straps are adjusted for a snug, supportive fit, not too tight or too loose.
Sandals smell after use
Rinse the sandals with cool water after use, especially if worn in saltwater or after strenuous activity. Allow them to air dry completely. A mild soap can be used for occasional cleaning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These sandals require no assembly. Simply adjust the universal strap system to fit your feet securely. Use the Velcro closures on the instep and ankle straps to achieve a custom fit.
Compatibility: The Hurricane XLT3 sandals are designed for adult wear and are suitable for a wide range of foot shapes due to their adjustable straps. They are ideal for activities such as hiking, walking, beach use, and general casual wear.
Care: To clean the sandals, rinse them with cool water and use a mild soap if necessary. Gently brush the footbed and straps. Avoid harsh detergents or solvents. Allow the sandals to air dry completely away from direct heat or sunlight. Ensure straps are clean to maintain the effectiveness of the FuseLock™ Velcro.
