I have worn Chaco sandals for 7 years. They are comfortable, have good arch support, but not so much support that they are uncomfortable. Flexible sole, hike/walk/and even run in my Chaco sandals. Great at the beach and for driving.This was my first experience with Zappos. I needed to return my original order and called Zappos. They really did offer excellent service. I would recommend Zappos and Chaco products.

I have worn my new Chaco Z/2 Unaweep sandals now a few times and I think that they are the ones I have been looking for! I’ve just had bunion surgery and great arch supports are a must for the rest of my life. I love the feel of a well made sandal. Oh, this is it! Oh yeah. So glad that I've found a sandal such as this. I love that it can be adjusted to each foot, as one foot is slightly thicker than the other. I am exceptionally grateful for the creators of these sandals----truly!

This is the most comfortable walking shoe of any kind that I have ever worn; it provides excellent arch support and required no break-in. I now own three pairs in different colors. I like that they are waterproof. Adjusting the straps before the first time wearing them is a bit frustrating, but the comfort and support provided make this minor frustration very much worth it.

What a great sandal! I had ordered another type of sandals (Teva's) when my son insisted that I HAD to try the Chacos (he's always in the know about this type of stuff) so I ordered a pair. Both pair arrived about the same time so it was easy to compare. Hands down, these are the best ever. I started wearing them around the house (winter in the NE means snow on the ground) - yes the foot bed was a bit rough for winter feet - but I know I will be glad about the traction when water is introduced. Love the support - I am no longer young, so my knees and ankles are not as strong as they once were and I feel confident and sure footed in these. I played with various adjustments on the straps, but eventually found a way to make them perfect. Great that there is the option - a feature that should work for lots of folks. Cute too - love the blue color.

Amazing - I am so happy with this shoe. I have been a fan of the Chaco sandal for some time, but I've been hesitant to try the design with the toe wrapped. I've never liked something between my toes, but thought I would give this a try anyway. So glad I did. It keeps my foot firmly in place as I move actively around. Love this shoe!

Call me a critic, but I don't give five-star ratings unless they're earned. All I can say is WOW! I am on my feet most of the day, and these boots perform like a cross-training shoe. Great support, traction, and looks. And as soon as I put them on, I could feel my feet getting warm. This is going to be a great winter!

I love them! I have problems with my arches sometimes, and even get cramps in the arches of my feet if I don't wear supportive footwear. I have worn these sandals as much as possible since I have had them because they are great! I have hiked sand dunes, hiked a rocky trail, waded up stream to a waterfall, and went shopping in them. If I could wear them to work I would never take them off! I normally wear 8.5 but the 9 fits great. The sizing chart was right on.

Shoe of Excellence - This shoe is light and comfortable. I feel like my feet are natural softly padded. This is an excellent shoe. Helps relieve pressure off your legs.

Little tight on the toe. I don't know if this is because I have a weird foot (never been a problem before), but the toe seems to tighten as you wear these, so by the end of the day it is VERY tight on your big toe. Other than that, really like them. I would consider the Unaweep without the toe strap.

These are the most comfortable shoes on the planet... I'm on my 3rd pair. You do have to break them in because the top is a little stiff at first, but they are heavenly after a few wearings.

Fantastic sandal - My son has hiked the Smokey Mountains in these sandals for years and encouraged me to get a pair when I said I needed a good walking shoe with a lot of support. I'd been having serious problems with neuropathy in addition to aging arches. I am amazed at the way these sandals have improved my ability to walk. I'm into walking miles at a time now. Highly recommend this sandal.

These are great! These shoes are so comfortable! I just got my first pair of Chacos about a month ago and I have been wearing them on a daily basis. I have actually not taken them hiking or anything yet, but they are perfect for walking to classes, shopping, or anything for that matter! Besides, they are very cute!

Most comfortable shoes ever - I love Chacos! I've got narrow, rather flat feet and these are amazingly comfortable. It takes some practice to get the straps adjusted just right, but I've never had any problem with the toe loop tightening like some other reviewers. They're great for hiking or water sports and the Jupiter color is really pretty (well, as pretty as Chacos get!).

Didn't work for me. I need a lighter weight sandal with a flexible sole. These straps are adjustable which would be great for my narrow feet, but I need softer straps. I can imagine these sandals would work very well for most people - I have very picky feet.

A paradise of casual comfort. I have barely taken this shoe off since it arrived and then only reluctantly. It is possibly the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn and that's high praise coming from a Birkenstock girl. There are only two things I don't like about them, the plastic footbed, which does not breathe, thereby creating a sweaty foot problem (a small price to pay for big comfort), and the overall look of the shoe is a little masculine. I would love to see this shoe with a leather sole and more feminine shape and buckle design.

Great, comfortable shoe!! I normally wear a 7 1/2 or 8 and I took a 7. The first pair I got regular and the straps were barely long enough. The next pair I got 7Wide and the straps are longer but same shoe base. Perfect!! Great walking, street or sand!!

Worth the Money - Read all reviews for water sandals for a trip to Jamaica. Decided on Chaco's because of the good reviews. Some said they run big, since they don't come in 1/2 sizes ordered a size small, WRONG. They run true to size. Did Mayfields Falls in Jamaica and they were wonderful, and half the people I saw on snorkeling tours had the crossovers tan lines and had raves for them.

Ecological, Comfortable, and Attractive - This is my second pair of Unaweep Z/2 Chacos. My first pair was an 8 men’s, as the store did not carry a women's wide. This pair, a 10 wide women's fits just as well. The Atlantis strapping is beautiful; the arch support is very supportive without being too firm. I have owned my first pair of Chaco Z/2s for over three years and they get a great deal of wear as my daily footwear and light hiking shoes. I have had them resoled twice and restrapped by Chaco for a reasonable price and terrific workmanship. The Z/2 is very comfortable, once you get used to the toe loop. I need the extra stability for hiking and cycling. It is very durable, and as a sport sandal goes, stylish and actually kind of sexy and feminine. I used to wear Birkenstocks because they are so good for your feet, but I hate the rather clumpy look of the original sandals. I feel I get the same sort of support from the Chaco Z/2, but it is a more versatile shoe, great for walking everywhere. The only downside to this shoe is that because the shoe bed is a polymer, the shoes and my feet stink terribly after a couple of days of wearing them. However, these shoes are completely waterproof and I clean them down with baking soda and a brush in the tub or wash them in the machine. A very durable, ecological shoe because of its ability to be resoled and restrapped. Zappos did a great job of shipping this shoe. Kudos to Zappos!

My feet are as flat as they come and are becoming more painful as I age. This is the ONLY SANDAL I can wear. I have to use custom orthotics for all other shoes and can't wear anything non supportive for any length of time. Even standing bare foot is usually painful. I do not have troubles with the strap strangling my toe like I have read about, in either double strap/single strap Chaco style. I will be buying many more pairs of these shoes, THEY ARE WONDERFUL! Worth every cent. Zappos is awesome because of the free shipping/return you can order one pair and if the size is incorrect simply return and try again. I hope the Chacos help your feet like they have helped mine!

You’ll love them - I pulled these out of the box and wore them to an amusement park they felt great. I have heard the straps loosen as you wear them, I haven't had that problem. I was afraid the ribbon would get dirty fast. The whole sole can be dusty and the ribbons stay clean.
