FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for swimming?
While the straps are quick-drying, the sandals are primarily designed for hiking and walking. Prolonged submersion and rigorous water activities might affect the longevity of the materials and adhesive.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer and measure your foot length. The Hurricane XLT3 features adjustable straps, which can help accommodate minor variations in width.
What is the warranty on these sandals?
Please refer to the retailer's or manufacturer's warranty information for specific details on coverage and duration.
Can the straps be replaced if they wear out?
The hook and loop straps are a key component of the design. While designed for durability, replacement is typically not a standard user-serviceable part. Contact customer support for potential solutions.
How much more cushioning does the topsole have compared to the XLT2 model?
The Hurricane XLT3 model features 5mm more EVA in the topsole compared to the previous XLT2 model, providing enhanced step-in comfort.
Are these sandals eco-friendly?
Yes, the Hurricane XLT3 incorporates sustainability initiatives, including 100% recycled polyester straps, 30% recycled EVA in the midsole, and a 30% recycled rubber outsole.
Troubleshooting
Straps feel loose after getting wet
Re-adjust the hook and loop straps once the sandals are dry to ensure a secure fit. The hook and loop technology is designed for strength but may require minor readjustment after significant moisture exposure.
Reduced traction on slippery surfaces
Ensure the outsole is clean from mud, sand, or debris. The updated lug pattern offers enhanced grip, but accumulated dirt can reduce its effectiveness.
Discomfort on the top of the foot
Adjust the instep strap to ensure it is not too tight. The padded heel strap should also be adjusted for comfort without digging into the Achilles.
Slight stiffness in the topsole
The topsole is designed for support and may feel firm initially. Wear them for shorter periods initially to break them in, allowing the EVA to conform to your foot shape over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Teva Hurricane XLT3 sandals require minimal setup. Simply unfasten the hook and loop straps, slide your foot in, and re-secure the straps to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. Adjust each of the three strap points (across the forefoot, over the instep, and around the heel) as needed.
Compatibility: These sandals are best suited for adult wear and are designed for activities such as hiking, walking, and general outdoor use. They are compatible with a wide range of outdoor apparel and are ideal for warm-weather adventures.
Care: To clean your Hurricane XLT3 sandals, use cool water and mild soap. Gently brush away dirt and debris with a soft brush or cloth. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely, away from direct heat or sunlight. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can damage the materials and construction.
