Customer Reviews Teva Hurricane Xlt2

Got these for a camping vacation after good experience with tevas basic flat sandal and having plantar fasciitis. We hiked probably 3 miles over the vacation and it ended up hurting my heel so much I cant put weight on that foot, still 2 weeks later. Very disappointing.

I've had the hurricane sandal for 15-20 years and loved them. The sole is separating from the sandal so I wanted to purchase new ones. The new ones are no comparison and are not an upgrade or better sandal. I wish this site would accept photos so you can see the staggering difference. My old hurricane sandals have a grippy rubber sole showing many small rubber bumps and softer comfortable contoured foot bed. The new ones have a hard plastic feeling sole that's more of a geometric design and is slippery on my hardwood floors and not at all grippy or non-slide and the foot bed is flat harder plastic, not contoured and not as comfortable. Teva? Why the change? The old ones were soooo much better. The new model seems made with cheap materials. New design flaws for an expensive hiking/water proof sandal.

I took these shoes with me while backpacking around Europe for a month. I wore them almost everyday and by the end there was fraying all over the straps. Overall very comfortable and only issue was a blister on the outside of my pinky toes where the strap cut in.

Super cute and fits true to size, but...if you have kind of wide feet or bunyons or anything these might not be for you. Stick to the traditional Tevas without the molded footbed. I gave these to my narrow footed son.

I do really like them, though I cannot attest to overall quality as I've not had them long, I will say that I have paid a lot less for a lot more shoe/sandal. Even getting these on sale I do not feel that the value is there. They seem to be well made and they feel ok on my feet.

I use these shoes as an everyday sandal or to work in I want something casual. The straps aren't ever adjusted right i dont like that its velcro and i bruised the top of my food from getting things stuck between my sandal and my foot

When the water shoes get wet they cause horrible blisters. Tried two different styles and it happened with both to my entire family.

Super comfy and definitely grips the ground on hikes but it's really wide at the front footbed. That said my feet are narrow. This meant they looked a little like clown shoes. They'll be good for walking the dog and hikes at the beach etc I wouldn't buy again though at the price point.

As the straps come out on the footbed , instead of beside it, It can make for a bit of a rub during long-distance walks. Easily improved upon in my opinion.

Would have loved them if the sole was a light color. I bought them for comfort and looks!

The Hurricane is very well made. Love the colors; lt blue, dk blue and teal. It is very comfortable when standing on hard flooring. Just not made for my feet. When I walk, my feet always want to slide forward - no matter the tweaking done with the straps. The toe strap also makes my metatarsal joint ache. My foot fits fine in the footbed. Don't know why my feet won't stay put. Sure wish they worked for me. I also purchased the Original Universal sandal which fits perfectly, with no foot sliding. Perhaps because it has a flat footbed?

Colors are fun and look exactly the same as on the screen. Strap placement is not the best over my little toe and some rubbing does occur. Especially when wet. Foot bed is comfortable and secure dry and wet, had great traction on wet rocks at the beach.

Had these for about two years now and I wear them a fair amount in the summer. They are super comfy. great for walking around town and hiking on easy trails. Not my favorite for water activities as they get pretty slippery when wet. After 2 years the tread it still in great shape but the velcro has stopped sticking :(. Ive tried cleaning it out really well but no success. Hoped they would last longer than 2 seasons, r.i.p

I've purchased these shoes two times and loved them. Great to wear in the water and on day hikes..but both pairs have lost the bottom half. It's ridiculous and sucks since they are so great! I tried glueing them back, but really, you shouldn't have to. First pair lasted ~7 months and the next was 4.

I don't love the new layout/design. There seems to be a dip in the front section. Because of this my foot slips out over the front. I have to strap them tighter which is not suitable for me. I wear these often for day hikes and live in them during the summer months. Please see the difference between the design of this model and the one before.

Footbed is so comfortable, but the unlined straps rubbed raw spots across my feet. I had to place bandaids across my feet (where the toes join the rest of the foot). That done I was able to walk in them for about an hour without further rubbing. A beautiful looking shoe, but how about cushioning the straps?

Seems to run a size small. Bands chafe a bit since they're stiff will hopefully soften with wear?

I bought a pair of tevas in the mid-90s. After wearing through all kinds of crazy terrain for a few years, I offered them up to my mom. She JUST threw them away last year (that's almost 30 years old--for shoes!), the soul began to separate. I decided to buy another pair. They're just not the same. They feel cheaper. They're OK, but didn't live up to the standard I expected. They are lighter weight, which I think is good, and perhaps that's why I feel the way I do. The color is pretty.

This is my second pair of Teva sandals. My other ones never wore out, I just wanted something new! I bought these sandals because they are so colorful. They are a different style from my other pair. Right away, I had trouble with blisters. My feet just can't get use to the straps. I think the straps need to be designed differently for my foot's shape!
