FAQs
Are these sandals waterproof?
Yes, they are designed to be water-friendly and feature quick-drying materials, making them suitable for water crossings and wet environments.
Are they suitable for long-distance hiking?
They are ideal for day hikes and light trekking. For extremely long distances or technical mountain climbing, a hiking boot might offer more protection.
How do I know what size to buy?
Teva sandals generally fit true to size. We recommend measuring your foot and comparing it to the size chart, ensuring there is a small margin at the front and back.
Can I recycle these when they wear out?
Yes, through the TevaForever recycling program, you can send in your old sandals to ensure they are repurposed rather than sent to a landfill.
Is the anti-odour treatment permanent?
The Life Natural mint-based treatment helps significantly, but its effectiveness may diminish over time with heavy wear and cleaning.
Can these be washed in a washing machine?
We recommend hand washing with mild soap and water. Machine washing can potentially damage the straps and the integrity of the footbed adhesive.
Troubleshooting
Straps feel scratchy against the skin
Ensure the webbing is adjusted properly. If irritation persists, try slightly loosening the straps to reduce friction during movement.
Footbed is slippery when wet
Rinse the footbed to remove any silt or mud buildup which may be causing the loss of friction.
Hook-and-loop closure is losing grip
Use a stiff brush or a pair of tweezers to remove debris, sand, or lint from the velcro hooks to restore fastening strength.
Pros and Cons

- Excellent traction on mixed terrain
- Quick-drying materials ideal for wet conditions
- Highly adjustable fit for security
- Sustainable manufacturing using recycled plastics
- Comfortable for all-day wear
Cons
- Not suitable for formal or professional environments

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best fit, undo all hook-and-loop straps and place your foot firmly on the footbed. Start by adjusting the ankle strap first, then the forefoot strap, ensuring they are snug but not tight enough to restrict circulation. Injection-moulded ends make it easy to grip and pull even when wearing gloves or if your hands are wet.
To care for your Teva Hurricane XLT2s, rinse them with fresh water after exposure to salt or mud. If they develop an odour, use a soft brush and mild soap to scrub the footbed. Always air dry them in the shade, as direct, intense heat can warp the EVA material or weaken the adhesives. These sandals are part of the TevaForever program, meaning they can be recycled at the end of their life cycle.
