FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for long-distance hiking?
Yes, the enhanced cushioning, nylon shank for support, and secure fit make them suitable for long-distance hiking, especially on varied terrain.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Utilize all three adjustment points of the Universal Strapping System™: the forefoot strap, the instep strap, and the heel strap. Tighten each to your comfort and security preference.
Can I wear these in the water?
Yes, the quick-drying straps and water-friendly materials are designed for water use. They are ideal for beach activities, river crossings, and can be worn in and out of the water.
What does 'REPREVE® plastic' mean?
REPREVE® is a brand of recycled performance fibers made from recycled plastic bottles. Using these materials means the straps are environmentally conscious.
How much more cushioning do these have compared to the XLT2?
The Hurricane XLT3 model includes an extra 5mm of EVA in the upper sole compared to the previous XLT2 model, offering increased comfort.
Are these sandals good for wide feet?
The Universal Strapping System™ offers significant adjustability, which generally accommodates a range of foot widths. However, individual fit can vary.
Troubleshooting
Straps feel stiff or difficult to adjust initially
This is common with new Velcro FuseLock™ closures. Wear the sandals for a short period to break them in, or gently flex the straps to soften them.
Sandals feel loose even after adjusting straps
Ensure all three adjustment points of the Universal Strapping System™ are utilized correctly. Check that the Velcro is securely fastened.
Soles feel slippery on very wet surfaces
While the Spider Rubber® Endure outsole offers good grip, extremely slick surfaces can still pose a risk. Exercise caution and ensure the outsole is free of mud or debris.
Debris getting caught in Velcro closures
Periodically clean the Velcro straps using a stiff brush or tweezers to remove any lodged dirt, sand, or lint. This will maintain the effectiveness of the closure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Teva Hurricane XLT3 Sandals require no assembly. They are ready to wear straight out of the box. Adjust the straps using the hook-and-loop closures and the buckle system to achieve your desired fit.
Compatibility: These sandals are designed for adult male foot sizes. They are compatible with various outdoor activities and casual wear. They are not designed for use with specialized footwear like ski boots or climbing shoes.
