FAQs
Are these sandals truly waterproof?
The Teva Hurricane Verge sandals feature quick-drying materials and are suitable for use around water, but they are not designed to be waterproof. They will dry quickly after getting wet.
Can I wear these for long hiking trips?
These sandals are best suited for day hikes and light trails. For extended or technical hikes, more robust hiking boots or shoes are recommended for adequate support and protection.
How do I recycle my old Teva Hurricane Verge sandals?
These sandals are recyclable through the TevaForever recycling program. You can send your well-loved Teva sandals to be recycled, preventing them from ending up in landfills. Visit the Teva website for more information on the program.
What does 'Microban technology' do?
Microban technology is an antimicrobial treatment that helps prevent the growth of odor-causing bacteria on the sandal materials, keeping them fresher for longer.
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The adjustable straps offer a good degree of customization, which can accommodate various foot widths. However, individuals with exceptionally wide feet may find them snug depending on the strap adjustment.
What is the main difference between the Hurricane Verge and other Teva Hurricane models?
The Hurricane Verge features a cross-strap upper design with an updated buckle closure for easy on/off, combined with a contoured EVA footbed and quick-dry mesh lining for enhanced comfort and breathability compared to some simpler models.
Are the materials used genuinely recycled?
Yes, the webbing used in the Hurricane Verge is made from recycled plastic using traceable, verifiable REPREVE® polyester yarn by Unifi®, supporting sustainability initiatives.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel too loose or too tight.
Adjust the hook-and-loop ankle strap and the forefoot straps to find a secure and comfortable fit. Ensure the plastic buckle is fully engaged.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. For very smooth or wet surfaces, exercise caution as with any sandal.
Strap adjustment is difficult.
Ensure the hook-and-loop closures are clean and free from lint. The injection-molded strap ends are designed for grip; if they feel stiff, try flexing them gently.
Discomfort in the footbed after prolonged wear.
Break in the sandals by wearing them for shorter periods initially. Ensure the straps are adjusted correctly to support your foot's arch and heel.
Noticeable odor developing.
Clean the sandals thoroughly with mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry completely. The Microban technology helps, but regular cleaning is still necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Teva Hurricane Verge sandals require no assembly. Upon receiving them, adjust the straps using the hook-and-loop closures and the plastic buckle to achieve your desired fit. Ensure all straps are securely fastened before use.
Compatibility: These sandals are compatible with a wide range of casual wear. They are designed for adult use and are suitable for both men and women. They are intended for use on dry land, light trails, and around water, but not for extreme athletic activities where specialized footwear is recommended.
Care: To clean your Teva Hurricane Verge sandals, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse thoroughly with cool water and allow them to air dry completely, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. The REPREVE® polyester webbing can be spot cleaned. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can damage the materials and construction. The antimicrobial treatment is inherent to the material and does not require special care beyond regular cleaning.
