The fit of the Hurricane XLT 2 is fairly standard, and will work for most people. The adjustments help to secure the right fit as well. We tested the men’s Teva Hurricane XLT 2 sandal. This sandal is the newest update to the long-standing Hurricane XLT model, and we like the added traction and strap comfort. There is a women’s specific model, and it is the same in all aspects except for fit. A one year warranty is fairly standard for shoes, and even a luxury for sandals, so we are happy with this. The Teva Hurricane XLT 2 sandals were plenty comfortable, but the insole didn’t handle sweat well. You can’t see that in this picture, but it was an issue. Final Word

A decent number of sizes, but no half sizes. While this is common for some sandals, it’s unfortunate for those who are between a size. Teva also offers the Hurricane XLT 2 Cross Strap, which has the connector strap going across the foot, rather than to the side. This is a personal preference, and we found the cross strap provided a bit more support during upward movement. Teva also offers this model in many brand collaborations, like Snow Peak, but the sandal remains the same. Overall we like the standard Teva Hurricane XLT 2 model the best, or the Cross Strap if you need that support.The Teva Hurricane XLT are open-toe, 4-strap hiking sandals that can take on trails or water with ease. They don’t have a toe-post, have been updated for increased grip and a softer EVA midsole. If you want a pair of do-it-all hiking sandals this is a good place to start. Teva’s design is unique, and remains almost unchanged from the original hiking sandal. There are enough adjustments to really dial in fit.

Teva Hurricane XLT 2 Specifications To be clear, the tactile comfort of the straps is great and this never caused any problems. However, the position of the tensioner on the forefoot could use some adjustment. This is the cause of the pressure point. I have an extremely narrow foot so it could be specific to my feet. With all footwear, I really need to crank down the tension system, whether it’s laces, straps, BOA, etc. Fit I did find that there were a few bothersome pressure points, most notably on the forefoot near the pinky. This is why we always say “try the shoe” to see just how well it fits you. That said, the Hurricane XLT 2 sandals have a good amount of adjustability, which is good because I find myself tightening or loosening the straps fairly frequently.

This is Teva’s in-house sole, and the traction is greatly improved from previous versions of the Hurricane. The only complaint I have is in regards to the insoles: they aren’t great with sweat management. The main reason I wear sandals is that it’s just too hot to wear anything else, therefore, I deal with this sweat problem a lot. It surprised me because the same insoles deal with water quite well, but for some reason the sweat seems to be completely different.The webbing and straps are durable and perform well in the water. The heel cushion is a nice touch for comfort. The Teva Hurricane XLT 2 sandals won’t break the bank, will perform in almost every scenario, and do their best to distance you from that AARP card. Comfortable for leisurely hikes in the woods or a long session of jury duty. I suggest hopping on the Teva bandwagon. Where to Buy Teva Hurricane XLT 2
