These are amazing shoes. No other shoe feels as comfortable to me as this particular style of Chaco. I highly recommend it.

I love these shoes. I totally wore out my previous ones and ordered a replacement. I wear them everywhere because they are so comfortable both trail and shopping. They have my highest recommendation.

Excellent arch support & comfort. I'm on my 3rd pair. I like the adjustable strap system, and they are washable. I wear them for work & play. Thought I may need 7 wide, but the medium fit well.

Great alternative to flip flops -
I got these to wear to the pool on a cruise. They are perfect for this: excellent traction and easy to slip on and off. The contoured sole provides exceptional arch support for a sandal. The contours and textured insole took a bit of getting used to, but now they are really comfortable. Adjusting the straps can be a bit tricky, but it's easy to do if you follow the directions in the box. Once you've got them adjusted for your feet, you've got a custom fit and don't need to do it again. All in all, they are an excellent sandal, even if a bit pricey.

Getting better with every wear -
These shoes are great for walking in the city or through rocky streams in the country. They get more comfortable every time I wear them. Usually I wear an 8.5 shoe. The 9 was too long and the 8 too narrow and the straps were under my foot, but the 8 Wide is perfect!!

I love my Chaco sandals...the great arch and the negative heel sure help my plantar foot problem. The adjustable straps are brilliant! Thanks!

Awesome, awesome, awesome shoe. Just a little hint to those with smaller feet...I wear a 7 and was able to fit into some kids Chacos! They're about the same pattern only a little cheaper! Chacos are well made for comfort...don't doubt 'em ever!

Not with a bunion -
Bought these last summer and found them great - especially the arch support (used them for my daily one-hour walk to work). Unfortunately the style of strap (pulling in just above and below the ball of the foot) aggravated my bunion and it took until Christmas (four months after stopping wearing the shoe) to stop hurting. So I want to warn anyone with a bunion not to get this shoe. For everyone else - it's great!

I love these sandals! They are very durable and supportive. They look great with shorts, skirts, and slacks.

My new favorite sandals!
I had a pair of Birkenstock sandals that were my favorite, but they finally gave out and I’ve since stopped wearing leather...so I tried these. They are GREAT! The adjustable strap is really nice and the footbed is extremely comfortable. They don't look quite as clunky as birks either - I actually wore them with a casual skirt and they didn't look terrible, I couldn't have gotten away with that in my birks. I got the wide width, so it allowed me to go down a half-size...the fit is perfect! I only wish summer were perpetual so I could wear them all year.

Chaco Unaweep -
Love them, perfect for high arches and support of the arch. There is no break in period; I wear them 8-9 hours a day at work (standing/walking). Winter with socks and the rest of the year without. They don't hurt my "bunion" either!!

Awesome Chacos - This is my first pair of Chacos, but they came highly recommended. I have recently suffered some foot problems and the arch support and heel security are very comfortable. I live in Thailand, so I expect to be wearing these a great deal. So far I enjoy wearing them and I am already planning to get another pair.

Don’t hike in these - I bought these shoes thinking they were good for water wear and for hiking up to the waterfall. I wore these in Hawaii on a hike up to a waterfall to swim. By the time we returned from the waterfall I had 3 or 4 blisters on both feet. Not good to hike in!!!

Super comfortable! I wear size 5.5 in sandals and had tried a 6 and they were way too big, so I decided to order the 5 from Zappos since it was the only place that I could find size 5, not to mention the great price! They were quite comfortable out of the box, with the exception of the inner part of the ankle where the straps come together, but it was a minor annoyance that eventually went away with wear. I walked around all day in these and my feet felt fine! The only complaint is that the strap is way too long once I have everything the way I want it, I have to tuck it back in and make a funky little "knot" to keep it out of the way.

Vacation Saver -
I ordered these for a trip to Zion National Park and Bryce Canyon. The medium width was too narrow. I had to exchange for wide width on VERY short notice and over a holiday weekend. Zappos promised delivery on Wednesday, they showed up on Tuesday. Outstanding service! I needed a sandal that allowed me to hike and river wade, this sandal was perfect. So comfortable that I wore it exclusively for 5 days... ditching my custom orthotics. I have severe foot pain (surgery scheduled in two days) and these shoes allowed me to have a last hurrah before being out of commission for the next six weeks. Also, found a Zappos Outlet store in Las Vegas... what an unexpected and pleasant surprise!

Great product, speedy shipping -
Having had a pair of Chacos before I knew what to expect. I was not disappointed with the new style and color I chose. Comfortable and stylish. Zappos offered free shipping and my sandals arrived the very next day. I will definitely be using Zappos again!

Pretty amazing!!! I am a hairstylist and tired of wearing tennis shoes with orthotics, until I found Chacos. I purchased 2 pairs this summer and I recently ordered my third pair. Z/1 is the winner and I wear them with socks while I work. I am very happy with them.

More than I hoped for -
I have been wanting these shoes for at least a year and recently bought them before a trip. They were virtually brand new when I went on a four day vacation that included a lot of walking. By the end of the vacation they hurt a bit in a few spots, but I was expecting that in the breaking in process. I would recommend buying "wide" shoes if your feet are at all wider than normal.

Comfortable shoe!
I was very pleased to find that the straps on this shoe are completely adjustable. As I wear a narrow, I was able to snug them up to my size. At first I snugged the straps too tight but once I loosened them a tad, I found I could wear them all day without thinking about them. The textured footbed seems a little odd at first, but is easy to get used to; and there is pretty good arch support. I always wear a sandal 1/2 size smaller than my "closed" shoe size; and these fit perfectly when I ordered an 8 instead of my usual 8 1/2. I did a little hiking in them and found them very comfortable. They stay on very well and in fact I now wear them on the treadmill instead of athletic shoes! I had tried on a Teva before buying these but there was a piece of plastic holding the straps in place near the toe that was really uncomfortable. I've had compliments on my new Chacos and have become a fan!

I bought these shoes for a rafting trip and have been wearing them non-stop ever since. They are sturdy and comfortable!

My summer slippers -
This is my second pair of Chacos. On the weekend I put them on first thing in the morning and wear them all day. They are very supportive of my high arch and cradle my feet. They are very stable and I feel very secure walking in them. Not super stylish, but for sport sandals I prefer them over other brands. I have gotten lots of compliments on the new ones.

Chaco sandals -
I LOVE these sandals! They are so comfortable for walking or just hanging out. I like them SO much better than the toe loop Chacos... much more comfortable. Thank you! Very efficient order and delivery as well! I got them a size smaller than usual. They are perfect! I usually wear a 10 or 41 European sizing, but in these, the 9 is a 41.

Excellent shoe, as always.
I bought this shoe in a men's for my husband and in women's for my mother-in-law and they never take them off. I have always love Chaco and they both coveted mine. Now they have their very own!

Best walking sandal ever!
Excellent arch support. The leather patch where the two ankle straps meet irritated my foot for the first two days, however, now they fit like they were made for my feet.
