Men's Hurricane Drift Water Sandal

Comparing the this sandal (Hurricane Drift) with the TEVA Men's Hurricane Xlt2 Sandals. First of all, ny son is a lifeguard and spends a lot of time in shallow water, his crocs banged up his feet with blisters on his first day of the summer, perhaps they are too tight. I ordered these two pairs of sandals to choose one to wear instead as they look like they have better support for the sole of the foot when standing all day and fit closer to the foot so there shouldn’t be so much movement or friction. Hurricane This Sandal is the one on the left on the picture and the one shown by itself, it is made out of a rubber material similar to crocs but thicker. The strap across the ankle has a more flexible feel to the material than the rest of the shoe, for comfort and durability. You cannot adjust the fit of the straps so if the strap is too tight or too loose, it can’t be adjusted. He finds the shoe very comfortable. Both shoes have the same sole in terms of size, fit and even treads, but this shoe is made of rubber so is much lighter. Completely waterproof. Hurricane XIt2 This shoe has a heavier duty rubber sole, making is a little heavier but still light. The straps are typical of Teva sandals, more like a stiff waterproof fabric feel and every strap adjusts with velco. This allows a custom fit but my son finds parts of the Velcro digs in unless you have the perfect lined up seal. This shoe also has a comfort padded strap at the heal. More cumbersome to get on with the Velcro long strap. Verdict For my sons lifeguard needs or a water/beach shoe we would pick the Hurricane rubber shoe. Perhaps for hiking or wading through a river I’d pick the Hurricane XIt2 during to more of a hiking weight to the sole and the adjustable straps. For my son, the less expensive rubber shoe is the clear winner. More comfortable and less fussy and nothing to dry on it. I will also be putting this review on the other shoe reviews with a close up picture of that shoe. In terms of fit, it’s quite a wide fit and a typical size 9. Both soles are the same size and in each design other than material. Hope this helps someone out.

I've been wearing Teva sandals since I was a white water rafting guide back in the 80's. I own a variety of Teva styles. This one is a failsafe in my arsenal of Teval sandals. Sturdy, comfortable, protective. They just never fall apart, the velcro stays intact, and the rubber does degrade. I use them for everything....my family, does too. Our outdoor pairs go from the river to the supermarket. We even have a pair for house use only. Fantastic

These sandals are durable and comfortable, with a soft footbed that makes them great for walking. They’re true to size, adjustable, and stylish—I especially love the blue wave strap design. Many people say they can wear them for long distances, even on medium-difficulty trail hikes, and they really do feel worth the price. However, my son wore them for the first time while traveling and ended up with blisters, so I’d recommend breaking them in a bit before taking them on a trip or long hike. Pros: Durable and good for light trail hikes Soft, comfortable footbed Adjustable fit and true to size Stylish design (love the blue wave straps) Worth the price Cons: Can cause blisters if worn new for long distances Needs some break-in time before travel or hiking Overall, these are great all-around sandals, just make sure to wear them a few times before any big trip.

Teva Men's M Hurricane Drift Sandal -- its EVA -"Ethylene Vinyl Acetate", a Polymer synthetic plastic that's molded and very comfortable!! They are lightweight and can float! I purchased these sandals for the beach, and the beach sand. On regular Teva's, the straps go into the sole and there are gaps where they go into the sole and sand water gets in. This Hurricane Drift Sandal is ONE PIECE no gaps and no orifices for sand or water to get in! Dried in no time!! They are very lightweight and run big or "full size" not small that's for sure. Just be careful when you pull the strap to tighten... the stitched area of the strap can tear along the stitched sewn area, tug easily and its not a problem, just be aware of that, especially when its hot! I haven't had a problem at all. I don't expect them be super durable, they are good enough for the beach to get wet and easy to clean.

Poor quality, poor design. Insole of the sandals were so smooth and slippery, the sandals were dangerous to use in the water. Threw them away. Teva used to make great sandals. Apparently not any more.

Moved to Arizona and finally convinced my 80 year old husband to wear sandals. AND he really likes these! Wears them every day and he finds they very comfortable. Best attribute (per husband) is they stay on his feet. As anyone with neuropathy of the feet know, just feeling your feet can be a challenge. He tried flip flops and almost fell several times as they would not stay on his feet. THESE however are a win-win!

Like all Teva sandals, this one has a good arch and is comfortable to wear. I was bothered a bit by the Velcro closure. Unlike the other Tevas I've owned (and that's a lot of sandals over the past twenty years), it's a bit of a pain to operate. But what really bothers me about the Hurricane Drift is that when I lean way back on the TRX straps, the sole slips! Very dangerous. I plan to leave them on the porch to wear when I go down to the shore to jump in the water.

I have been wearing Tevas ever since they first came out... I've worn many different styles in many different versions over the years but have pretty much stuck to the traditional nylon strap a style of Teva. These are completely different in that they're all molded rubber and there's only one strap which is over the ankle to secure the sandal. The strap that goes over your toes and the strap behind your heel are fixed and cannot be adjusted. This is okay with me because they fit my feet perfectly. And because they're rubber and not cloth there are no cutting edges to dig into my skin which has often been the case with the traditional Tevas. So I'm hooked on these! In fact just days after I received my first pair I ordered a second pair just to have on hand! I love it that I can get them wet and it doesn't matter they clean off really easy but more importantly I just love how comfortable they are on my feet! And I'm really impressed that they come in my size I wear a men's size 14 and that's not easy to find. So yes I will be buying these again for sure!

Ottimi sandali, leggeri e molto comodi. Bisogna fare attenzione con le taglie perché calzano un po’ abbondanti. Nel mio caso, ho il 40,5, e i sandali vanno bene anche a mio figlio che ha il 42. Il sistema di chiusura a strap, tuttavia, funziona benissimo e impedisce ai miei piedi di scivolare in avanti.

Ich habe Größe 45 und musste schlussendlich eine 43 bestellen die dann passte, (eventuell vielleicht auch eine 42,5.)

Ik heb de sandalen nooit ontvangen, Amazon heeft het geld wel vanzelf terugbetaald.

Fantastici! Comodissimi
