Teva Black Hurricane XLT2 Sandals

I’ve had my share of hiking sandals but none felt like sandals, just heavy vented shoes. I think my problem was buying hiking sandals from hiking shoe companies and not looking at sandal companies for hiking sandals. My last pair (Keen), trapped rocks in the sandals, the sandals was so difficult to put on that I would suffer with the rocks under my foot rather than try to remove the sandals and put them back on. Most of my sandals have last 2-3 hikes before I gave up on them. Not this Teva.I’ve worn the Hurricane XLT2 Teva on 4 hikes already and I’ve had zero issues. They feel like sandals and the sole has plenty of support and protection from the terrain. I’ve yet to stub my toe which was a big concern.I’m in between sizes so got a size above per recommendation. ... MoreI’ve had my share of hiking sandals but none felt like sandals, just heavy vented shoes.

They feel like sandals and the sole has plenty of support and protection from the terrain. I’ve yet to stub my toe which was a big concern.I’m in between sizes so got a size above per recommendation. When I got the sandals I was really worried it was too big but with three adjustable straps, it was never an issue. I slid my foot as far forward as possible and strapped down the heel strap so my foot wouldn’t slide and it hasn’t. Another concern was the plastic triangle holding the straps was hitting a knuckle when I tried it on. But once on the trail it wasn’t an issue and I totally forgot about it.I’m really happy with this purchase. I had been looking at this sandals for some time but they always sold out. If this one ever ware out, I’ll purchase the exact same one. No more shopping around.

These sandals are not only incredibly comfortable but also provide a sense of security with every step. The cushioned sole and adjustable straps make them a perfect fit for my feet, ensuring maximum comfort throughout the day. I love that I can wear them for long walks without any discomfort. Additionally, the sturdy construction and reliable grip of the outsole give me the confidence to navigate various terrains without any worries. These sandals have quickly become my go-to footwear option for both casual outings and outdoor adventures. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a combination of comfort and security in their sandals.

I've owned these sandals for about a month now. Upon my first few wears I proclaimed to my girlfriend that it was one of the greatest purchases I've ever made. Unfortunately I've had to walk back that statement (no pun intended). After about a week the left sandal started squeaking loudly and also kind of feels squishy under foot. After another week the straps started fraying. The Velcro pieces are unraveling or something so there are long strings of nylon hanging off. These issues make for a somewhat annoying wear and they definitely cost this product some points in my opinion. That being said however, they are very comfortable and supportive, and look great too. I would buy these again one day and hope to not have these problems again. If I did then I would stay ... MoreI've owned these sandals for about a month now.

Buyer beware. 3/5.
