Cute but not perfect. I love the leather and the overall look is okay, but these shoes are narrow. I just got them and will send them back. I do love shopping at Zappos though. These guys are great.

I just got these flip flops and I must say I was somewhat disappointed. They are very, very narrow!!!!! I could barely slip them on my foot! Although they are very cute i had to send them back.

Cute sandal - Of all of my Chaco’s I think I love this pair the least. I love the looks of this one, but the thong rubs my right foot and I am still trying to get the shoe to be comfortable. Also, I normally wear a 9, but in Chaco sandals I wear a size 10. I love the support of the shoe!

Not my kinda shoe - The whole thong thing in this shoe is a thong gone wrong. There is not enough space for the ball of the foot to slide under the darn thing, no matter how I adjusted the straps. I have normal sized, slightly narrow 7.5 feet and these shoes were not at all attractive or considerable. I tried them in red, and just had to send them back.

Love chacos - These are my 5th pair of Chacos. I get a new pair every season. These are more stylish. The narrow strap on one side not quite as comfortable as the regular flip flop style, but more comfortable than any other shoes I own. They arrived next day.

Cute sandal; howeverm you must go up at least 1/2 to full size larger. Expected it to be a bit more comfy. Nice looking but not the best for walking all day in.

Perfect shoe for my hallux rigidus! (Arthritis of the great toe that causes a large bump on top of the foot.) I wore Danskos for years and had to give them up last year because my arthritis "bump" was too large. This "Phoebe" lets me wear Danskos again! Yay!!

Other brands recommended by reviewer: Brooks "Ariel" tennis shoe also has a rocker bottom sole and large toe box that accommocates hallux rigidus.

Disappointed - The Chaco Switch is great looking sandal and the fit is nice and tight which would give you the feeling that the sandal would hold on to your while walking. I felt that I need to constantly curl my toes so as to not loose the sandal. The arch support is great. If the foot bed to this sandal wasn't slippery I think it would make the world of difference.

Looks great, but too tight - I bought a pair of these in size 10 from another source because Zappos didn't have the brown (parfait) ones in my size. They look great and would probably be comfortable - IF I could get them on. The depth under the thong is too tight to do more than get my big toe under it. I wish they fit, because they look great. The length is right, so I don't want to buy a larger size.

I am so pleased with this sandal! I have a narrow foot and this flip fits and doesn't flop. The style is so flattering and it has just enough arch support.

Best sandal ever - I now have two pairs of these sandals because they are so comfortable. The best part is that they offer a great arch support. I have suffered from plantar fasciitis and these sandals give perfect support to prevent that from coming back.

Updated look is nice - I have brown Chaco Switch's and my daughter has black. I actually prefer hers, as the solid color looks classier. True to others comments, they do take breaking in, but now are comfy (not the best I have, but pretty good). The arch support is excellent.

Chaco Switch - Talk about the perfect flip...this is it. I now own 4 colors in the Chaco Switch! I have arch "issues" and this is the only flip flop that I'm able to wear all day. It has excellent arch support, a great rubber sole and very cute style. This will be my summer of the "Switch"!

Good Chaco! This shoe runs a full size small. I had to exchange for a size 8 when I usually am a 7. At first the shoe hurt my feet, the straps rubbed the tops of my feet and left red marks, however after wearing them just a couple of times they loosened up perfectly and now I wear them all the time and they are very comfortable.

Smaller than my last pair - I had a different style of Chaco thong style sandals, and I ordered the same size for this type and have found them to be much tighter in the straps than my last pair. My other pair were nylon straps only (no leather on one side) so maybe they stretched out easier. However, I keep hoping my new ones with the leather strap will stretch out and become as comfortable as my previous pair. Currently, I can't wear them for too long because they dig into the top of my foot too much.

Very comfy and flexible...However, one of the canvas straps got stretched out somehow (probably something to do with one of my children) and that flop definitely does not fit the same now.

These run short & very narrow! I usually take a 6.5M, but have a 6W in Z/1 Unaweep, so tried and returned the 6M Switch. Great arch support, prefer plastic sole to this leather one, fabric was pretty tight over foot (maybe would loosen up as broken in?). Will try the Flip style in 7M and 8M if 7W unavailable. Thanks Zappos for fast & easy returns!

Other brands recommended by reviewer: Any Chacos! Any of the rugged Merrells (read: less cute styles...)

Most comfortable flip-flop I've ever owned - I love my regular Chaco strap sandals, and when I saw they began to offer flip-flops, I had to have them. I wear lots of flip-flops and I've tried lots of different brands...these are the best I've ever worn, by far. The arch support is fantastic, as you would expect from Chaco, and the leather material of the Switch is soft, comfortable and molds right to your foot. They stay on your foot without causing blisters or tired toes. I highly recommend them to anyone. I've bought them as gifts and the recipients love them as well!

Other brands recommended by reviewer: Any other Chaco brand sandals.

Very nice thongs - I've been on a search for a NICE, very low-heeled boot for years in a size 12. Well, no luck finding the boot yet, but I'm coming across plenty of nice sandals on Zappos site! I was introduced to Chacos at my local REI store earlier this year, and loved wearing the Chaco Z/2 all summer long for everyday use and long walks. Have just received this "Switch" thong in brown leather and cocoa/white/pink striped webbing. It's VERY cute, and very comfortable, though this time of year I've just tested indoors. It does run much more close-fitting than the Z/2 (in which I ordered down a half-size). In this Switch thong, I ordered my regular shoe size and it fits fine for length; it is cut closer to the foot width-wise, which I actually like as it gives it a little "dressier" look and not the more clunky look of my other Chacos.

Disappointed - I have 4 other pairs of Chaco sandals and this style is the first one that's very disappointing to me. I wore them only one day on a recent trip to AZ and developed blisters between my toes and along the fabric strap line. Two weeks later, I still have the remnants of healing from the ribbon area. I love the look of the shoe and hopefully, this is just a break in period but I couldn't wear them after the first day. I love Chaco sandals but this one just didn't work for me. I really don't know what caused the problem as I have pretty normal feet and no issues with other Chaco or Keen sandals.

Comfortable and good looking - I hate thongs, but these are actually comfortable. I bought a pair to wear on a cruise and was able to wear them all day. When I got home, I got another pair in a different color because I liked them so much.

Awesome look - The shoes have such a cool, unusual look to them. I am a little disappointed in the footbed. There is not much cushioning between the ball of my foot and the ground. They do not have the same thick sole as my other Chaco’s.

Other brands recommended by reviewer: Any other Chacos with thick rubber soles.

Dear customer service guys: I wanted to say how awesome your staff is. I've dealt with several via phone doing some shoe shopping, and they're always, always, always cheerful and they personalize the conversation. Your staff seems to enjoy their work and makes shopping online/exchanging via phone a breeze. The VIP overnight shipping is great too, but I could do without that as long as your staff continued their positive, personal service to customers. Thanks so much to whoever trains your staff...you've obviously got great staff training programs and great managers/supervisors. Thanks again!!!
