Just received my latest pair and was extremely disappointed to find you must be trying to save money by making the straps considerably thinner. Sad, because due to neuropathy, I wear Tevas all the time. Not nearly the support with these thin straps. Shame on you, Teva!

All good but canvas straps are bit rough on the small toes and need a bit of softer material on the inside of strap

I have had these sandals for less than a year and have sung their praises high and low encouraging my husband and my father to purchase a pair. They are extremely comfortable and feel secure on my narrow feet. Despite taking them on one hike (where they were not my primary shoe) and casual wear in warm months: I noticed today that both soles are separating. I will try to glue them back together and would consider purchasing another pair because I love the comfort but if you're looking for a sandal that will last: these are not it. I see other reviewers have had this same issue: seems that the quality has gone down hill over the years which is a shame.

The arch strap on the top of the foot between each ankle is very uncomfortable because the material is ribbed and rough. It also has the shoe ID label on the underside adding to the roughness. I'm thinking of returning them but I need sandals for a trip. I'm disappointed.

I like to use them when I go to the river, the beach or walking around town. Very comfortable fit, guess the water unglued the bottom after a few uses. Took it to a shoeperson to get fixed and was an easy solve. But gets minus stars for coming undone.

I loved these sandals but unfortunately after very mild use the soles have fallen off both shoes. My husband and I both have a pair and he complains that the straps take forever to dry once wet.
Just expected them to last more than a year and a half.
Super disappointing.

These sandals are super comfortable and look good with casual wear. I can wear them all day while traveling with no issues. Unfortunately, the sole has fallen off of all three pairs I have owned. My most recent pair lasted a bit more than a year. My husband had the same experience with his pair. We do live at the beach so need to rinse sand of the sandals regularly so I am not sure it that is the issue. But, the sandals are not worn out in any other way and probably would have several more years of life if not for the soles !

I have been buying this style for as long as I can remember (20+ years). These are my go to sandals for kayaking, camping and kicking around. I recently replaced them and was disappointed with the webbing choices. They used to have beautiful designs for women in many color scheme options but now I find the choices boring or not that great looking.

Bought the beige & white color.
Female. normally size 6.5 ordered 7 as .5 sizes weren't an option.
Looked pretty unattractive in person from a top view. Kinda reminded me of a bandaid or flesh toned bandage wrap. Even my husband said "Eww. Why'd you buy those? I think they're for old people after foot surgery."
Maybe the color blended in with my skin tone too much. Straps a bit bulky. I had nearly 1/2 inch overhang after my straps were secured that kinda just stuck out and had a sharp edge. I have narrow heels and skinny ankles so I felt I had to tighten straps a lot & the straps were too long for me.
The soles did feel secure and comfy. I returned them so I can't speak to comfort & durability over time.

This was my first time trying this brand, and I was super excited! I tried these on at a store and loved the look! They are lightweight, and the hard sole gives great support for potential rough trails. I was shopping for a comfortable hiking sandal out of this style but unfortunately, after walking around my apt, I realized that the design on the sole was pinching the bottom of my feet. It also gave a burning sensation, not sure if I may have been sensitive to the material. I wish they wouldn't have had those grooves, otherwise I may have considered keeping them. After initiating my return, I read some of the reviews and it seems like other people were also disappointed by this. Perhaps a flaw? If I come across a smooth bottom sole, I may purchase again!

I wish I could give 3.5 stars. The sandals are extremely cute, stylish and for the most part, comfortable. However, I do not think they are good hiking sandals and definitely not for water-related activities. They take a long time to dry, and rub/chafe the tops of my feet. They are very adjustable, however still rubbed in all of the wrong places on a mild-moderate hike. After a white water raft excursion where we were in the boat the whole time, I had blisters rubbed into the top of my foot. So 5 stars for style/color/adjustability but 2 stars for practicality/comfort. Good for mild wear but nothing much more strenuous than that.

While I love the way the sandals fit and feel, I rarely wear them because I wear sneakers most of the time. My shelves tend to wear my sandals more than I do. So it's always a surprise when the sole comes unglued in the forefoot. This happened to a second lightly used pair I wore today. Good tripping hazard. They are useless after that so I always throw them out and head back to this website for another pair. Hopefully a different model will last longer.

Terrible foot bed! The panels that are on the foot bed where the bottom of the foot rests, pinch the balls of my feet every time I take a step. This is a big disappointment. I'm really surprise how comfortable they are for other buyers. I looked at the big kids versions and those pairs are smooth and look comfy. I wanted to like these because of the style, fit, the treads, etc.. but these wont work. I hope that Teva will wake up and use the original footbed or a smooth surface for the bottom of the foot. I returned mine and are looking at some other pairs with either the meshy foot bed or smooth.

I love the look of this shoe on my foot. The only problem is that if I tighten the straps enough to keep my foot from sliding to the front, they tend to rub in places. The sandals that come with padding under the straps are more comfortable

These fit very nicely. The style was awesome! Unfortunately, they pinch the bottom of my foot. There are these panels instead of a smooth foot bed which make it very uncomfortable! I was amazed that fewer buyers didn't experience this issue. I will caution other buyers. The treads look awesome like the original from the 90s the staps were great. I really hope I can find something better than the new "original"

I love the many pairs of Teva's I own, however this particular pair hurts my bunion. The toe strap just isn't right for me.

NOT THE SANDALS FROM BACK IN THE DAY. I don't know what everyone else thinks, but these are not the same shoes I have worn years ago. Poor durability and the quality is subpar. I will not waste any more money. TEVA WHATEVER YOU HAVE CHANGED, CHANGE IT BACK!

The seems on the straps are rough and irritated my big and small toe. I ended up putting clear nail polish on the rough areas and it helped.

I loved the bright color and really wanted to love these shoes. Overall, the footbed was comfortable for hiking, biking, and beach trips, but the top straps cut into my skin! The strap material could be improved.

This is my second time buying Hurrican XLT2 sandals, and I have noticed that the strips have shortened like 2-3 inches. The sole and sizing is the same, just the straps. Overall it's still super comfy, but i'm really disappointed with the straps.

I have a pair of W Tierra's. I love them, and they are super comfortable. I decided to take a chance on these. I didn't find these as comfortable, and there's not much arch support.
The strap cuts and rubs the outside of my foot by my baby toe. I've tried adjusting the straps to loosen them up so I can wiggle my foot away from the strap. The strap still hurts, although not as much. That only helped a little bit. I haven't tried using socks with them yet. I'm hoping that will help out with this issue.

Too clunky and wide. My usual 8 fit fine, but they weren’t feminine enough for my taste. I went with Ryka instead.
