Great desert hiking shoe and more!
This is my first pair of Tevas and my first time trying an open-toe hiking shoe. At first, I was a little hesitant since getting rocks inside a shoe is never fun, but overall, I’ve really enjoyed them. The first test was wearing them to work as a kindergarten teacher, and I was pretty cautious with my feet. Thankfully, I had no discomfort. The real challenge came when I took them on a five-mile hike in the San Rafael Swell, Utah. While I did get some rocks and sand under my feet, unlike my closed-toe sandals, it was much easier to shake them out. I also love how adjustable the straps are, which is great for when my feet swell throughout the day or if I decide to wear socks.The grip is impressive—I even gave my husband a scare by testing how well they held onto a rock, but no slipping at all! I originally wanted a size 8.5, but Amazon didn’t have it, so I went with an 8. They fit well and don’t cause discomfort, though I do think the half-size up would have been a better choice. So far, they’ve worked great for walking at school, field day, hiking in the desert, gardening, and paddleboarding. They rinse off easily and still look good after all that use. Overall, I’m really happy with my purchase!

Comfortable, Secure, and Perfect for the Trails
My wife purchased the Teva Women’s Hurricane 4 Sandals and went half a size down from her usual 7 to a 6.5, which turned out to be a perfect fit.The sandals are lightweight yet sturdy, with straps that keep the foot secure without causing rubbing or discomfort. The highlight for her was the excellent traction and slip-resistance—so reliable that she wore them during a hike in Yosemite and found them both comfortable and functional the entire way.For anyone looking for sandals that balance comfort, durability, and trail-ready grip, the Hurricane 4 is an excellent choice. Stylish enough for casual wear, yet tough enough for real outdoor use—highly recommended.

Cute and comfortable!!!
Update: Wore these on hikes in Montana and these were awesome. I did not slip or fall on steep inclines/declines, rocks, wet rocks, etc. I pretty much wore these almost every day of my trip for sight seeing and for less aggressive hikes. They are so comfortable and also very cute. I love them!! They are true to size in my opinion. I did not need to size up or down. I also have high arches and these are so comfy and just a great fit. No blisters and no discomfort and I had not had time to break them in.This is my first pair of Teva’s. Excited to see how they do on a hike in Montana. My daughter swears by these so I am trying them out. I love the print and color of these, love that all the straps are adjustable. Very excited to break them in. True to size - I did not need to size up or down. 9 fits perfect. I have high arches so will see how they feel after a good walk/hike. Width of shoe is perfect, nicely cushioned and bottom of shoes like like they will grip surfaces well.

I love Teva sandals for the comfort and ARCH support ❤
What I love:Footbed is naturally nice and wide, most all Teva sandals are.Most all Teva sandals have wonderful arch support, which is a must to avoid plantar fasciitis, a very painful and avoidable foot condition--arch support and a good soft foot bed where the ball of your foot rests are a Must!Teva sandals are excellent for going hiking in and are non-slip when wet, so your foot doesn't slip off of andbout of the sandals...so perfect for river tubing and creek foraging! Nothing worse than to think you have the perfect shoe -- until you try wading in them and they are dangerously slick. Teva sandals are completely non-slip. Love them for that because I am constantly rinsing my feet off to rinse grime off my feet. (I own and operate a doggy DayCamp and Kennel-free Boarding business and dogs and water go hand in hand and it won't do to be slip-sliding out in the dog yards!They are very, very durable. My 22 year old pair finally had the sole split, I have been gluing them back together, but because my feet frequently are wet and with the extreme heat the glue failed and I nearly fell flat on my face running and playing with the dogs. Thing is, if all washed up, they look practically brand new...just the split sole situation on both sandals...so I had to break down and buy a new pair of Hurricanes.What I don't love:While the new Hurricane Teva sandals fit wonderfully, Teva has gotten stingy with the velcro portion on the straps!🥺😤 one of the reasons I love Teva sandals is they naturally have a nice wide foot bed to accommodate my 7W feet. By being stingy with the velcro, though the straps themselves are quite lengthy enough, only a little over 1/3 of each strap has velcro. So, the portion across the toes is only connected by maybe 1/2" (if that) of velcro securing the toe straps.Why change a good thing, Teva?? Velcro closures need more connection than a mere 1/2"🙆🏻Because of the stinginess that Teva has shown regarding the velcro, I could only rate at 4 stars.

Best Sandals Ever! Fits wide feet great!
I love these sandals so much! I’ve had total knee replacement and wanted a sandal with an ankle strap and these are so comfortable!! I feel like they are supportive and super comfortable-wore these to camp for a week and they went in the lake with me-no issues whatsoever! Will definitely be getting more colors!! I did not get any blisters whatsoever and that’s impressive! True to size and plenty wide enough for my wide feet!
