Especially if you are patient and wait for a very low price. Now I realize that our feet are all different, and these shoes may not work for everyone. Myself, I have always been very active w.r.t. outdoor exercise and activities, including hiking with dogs, in streams, on open ground, on trails. I have worn Teva sandals since the early days, and found them to be very satisfactory. I find the Hurricane to be reasonably comfortable/solid for moderate walks/hikes, and reasonably non-skid over wet surfaces (very important). My main sandals will certainly continue to be the Teva Terra Fi. Probably the major negative factor for the Hurricane is the lack of padding under the straps, as compared to the more expensive Teva sandals. In this way these inexpensive sandals are more like original Teva sandals; with a lot of hiking the straps can start to chaff if not padded. These are my "where are my Terra Fi sandals, oh well, these will be fine, just put them on" sandals.  I got them at the rock bottom price. If I am going for a long hike, I will certainly check under the beds to find the Terra Fi sandals. I do think Teva has pretty good standards for quality, I have never had a pair that was not durable. However to get an outdoorsy sandal that is both super comfortable and durable, you have to pay more.
