Comparing the this sandal (TEVA Men's Hurricane Xlt2 Sandals) with the Hurricane drift. This shoe is currently slightly more expensive between the two and understandably so. First of all, my 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 (not this shoe)This Sandal is the one on the left on the picture, 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).This is the shoe being reviewed here and the one on the right and the one by itself. 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.VerdictFor my son’s lifeguard needs or a water/beach shoe we would pick the Hurricane rubber shoe. For hiking or wading through a river I’d pick this shoe, Hurricane XIt2 has more of a hiking weight and feel to the sole and the adjustable straps are helpful for that use.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. Both great sandals, for slightly different needs although both would work in water. Hope this helps someone out.

I've owned a couple pair of Teva Hurricane sandals in the past. Got my first pair over 15 years ago. They were solid black. They fit well and were fairly comfortable. They were pretty durable, but I wore them hard, and they finally started to break down about 5 years ago. I bought a second pair, but they were not as well constructed and didn't feel as comfortable as the originals. They looked and felt "cheaper." I was also disappointed that I couldn't find a pair in solid black. I lost that pair while on vacation in South America last month, so I needed to find a replacement. I was happy to find the new Hurricane XLT2 Sport sandals available in solid black (personal favorite). They feel heavier and more substantial than either of my previous pairs. They are also more comfortable, right out of the box. I like the improved heel strap comfort, the sole and improved traction. The overall workmanship seems better too. I have wide feet. I usually order a 10.5 EE in shoes and boots. After reading reviews that said the sandals ran a little large, I decided to order size 10. They fit perfectly. Time will tell regarding durability.

I hadn’t worn a pair of Teva sandals since I was a kid, but I finally reached a point in life where I stopped caring about what others think and dove in for comfort. The comfort level of these Tevas is unmatched, comparable to the dozens of closed-toe shoes I own.I recently took them on a hike, and after a few miles, my feet felt completely fine with no pain, no blisters, just pure comfort. (Okay, maybe some blisters since these feet haven’t seen sunlight in years.) If you’re someone who loves to let your toes breathe while still having great support, I highly recommend giving these a try. Free the toes, and enjoy the adventure!

Nice sandals, but not for my feet, unfortunately. They do seem very well made.

I've been a sandal skeptic, and from my time in the Sahara I've had other sandals wear out quickly and have thorns poke through the bottoms. I heard from a friend that he's a big Teva fan, so I ordered these sandals and gave them a shot. I ordered a pair 4 years ago, and ordered another pair 3 years ago as an anticipated replacement (Amazon doesn't deliver to the Sahara yet).I have yet to replace my original pair, and boy can I tell you that I'm impressed. In the US I took them hiking from national park to national park, from Haleakala in Hawaii to Raineer in Washington to Big Bend in Texas to Voyageurs in Minnesota and several in between. I took them hiking to the Alps in Switzerland and the Pyrenees in France, wearing them everyday in the summer. Then I have been wearing them every single day in the Sahara desert, and let me tell you that this environment is not friendly on sandals. Most people here replace their sandals every 3-6 months, and my Teva's are 4 years and counting!At the time when I bought these, Teva did not offer any open-backed sandals, so I cut off the back strap as an experiment. I'm happy to say that that hasn't affected the functionality at all as I walk or hike, and now I can kick them off so much easier (Teva has since come out with open-backed sandals).For everyday use, they're incredibly comfortable. I'm not afraid to take them into the shower area, and they dry off really fast. For hiking, even with the backs cut off I'm still very comfortable doing normal hiking paths. And before I cut the backs off, I was doing bouldering and scrambling without a problem! The only single complaint I could have is the farmer's tan that I get across my feet - alas, Teva is yet to invent tanline-less feature yet ;)

Acquistate per una vacanza non proprio comoda. Li mettevo la mattina e li toglievo la sera. Ottime sugli scogli e senza toglierle anche in acqua al posto delle sottili scarpette da scogli. Utilizzate anche durante un trekking di un'ora, ottime.

Le problème avec les Teva (hurricane) est qu'elles sont indestructibles ...je viens quand même de remplacer ma derniere paire achetée en 2013 et portée non-stop 3 mois par an. J'ai un peu gagné en moelleux au nouveau des semelles. Je ne jeterai pas les vieilles qui me serviront en secours.
