Customer Reviews Chaco Dawkins

I love these sandals! They look great with both jeans and dresses, and the footbed is super comfortable with excellent arch support. There's just enough strap to provide good support without seeming bulky, and the decorative ankle straps give it a nice, boho chic style. It did take a couple of wears to break them in, mostly along the back zipper where the leather is stiffer. I found the toe loop to be comfortable, but if you happen to have a wide big toe, I could see this feature causing some discomfort.

Love these shoes! Wish they came in white, black, and other colors! Buying a second pair to have as a back-up pair. I have narrow, thin feet so these shoes cause no issues for me! I receive compliments on them regularly.

These definitely run small. I am a 9½ but I always wear a 9 in sandals and this was just too small. The 10 was just right, so I am glad that I returned them and got the larger size. They broke in easily and were a key part of the Hawaii vacation plan. They looked so stylish, and easy to put on with the back zip, and they are very nice / boho looking. The only reason that they did not get perfect comfort marks from me was that one of the straps across my instep on the left shoe sort of crumpled and it dug into my arch. The right shoe was perfect. It was probably just something weird about how I wore them at first or my foot anatomy. Other than that, they are super awesome.

I loved these shoes, but was disappointed with the zipper up the back. As I was planning on being active in these shoes (hiking, walking around the city, etc.) I would be moving around a lot, but the way the zipper is designed, it makes noticeable noise with every step I take. I wore these around my house for an hour and the noise bugged me so much I decided to return these, despite how comfortable and adorable they were.

I stand on my feet all day so I need a good arch support. Cute shoe with excellent support. I normally fit a 8 1/2. I went up a half size because of reviews and the fit was great. Not good if you have wide feet. I am a true med width.

Agree with the other reviewers that it runs quite small. I'm normally a 9.5, bought a 10 and am 50/50 on keeping them or not - it's just a tad too small. Sad, they're really cute. Also, I have narrow feet, and they're just barely wide enough. Keep that in mind as well.

I wanted to love these and I almost kept them, but wanted something a little less clunky. The zipper was extremely hard to unzip too, but that would likely improve over time. Fit true to size.

Shoe is very cute. If you need any kind of heel (lift in the back) for back support, this is not the shoe for you.

Got these in a 7, as my other Chacos are a size 7. In other brands, I'm usually a 7.5-8.5. I love the look of them, and they are comfortable, once you can get your feet crammed through the zippered back. I've only worn them for short spurts so far because of the odd way the straps are set up, they seem to just be asking for blisters. Also, if you have skinnier ankles, the straps may look a tad silly when you are not in movement, but it's worth it. Would probably buy again because I love the look of them, but I grab my Chaco Yampas if I know I'll be doing a lot of walking.

Super cute! I got these in a 7 because that is what my last 2 pairs of Chacos are, but for this style I need an 8. The toe strap was a bit tight and I could see blisters in my future and lacks a bit more foot bed at the front.

The other reviews on this website said these sandals ran small, so I ordered one size up. Wrong! They were huge! Even after ordering the next size down (my usual size), they fit the length of my foot, but are very "wobbly," especially around the ankle. These sandals, like other Chacos, are not adjustable, either, and because they are so wobbly, the heel rubs when I walk and there is no stability, making them not good for long walks. If you have small ankles, like me, you will likely not like this shoe. Also, the arch support isn't as good as other Chacos -- they don't support my high arches at all. But they are really cute! If you opt to choose cute over comfort!

I have a normal sized foot that kind of airs on the wider side. Generally I do not wear "wides" or anything but a normal width shoe, but the width of this shoe is just not working for me. I feel like a good portion of my feet are falling off the outside. Its quite uncomfortable. I am a true 8, and the 8s are fitting a little short on the toe, but are nothing to complain about. I would definitely keep the size 8 if they were a bit wider. I feel that the 9s will be too large for my feet. I am pretty disappointed these don't fit because I was looking forward to wearing these super cute and fun shoes! The ankle straps are super fun and very comfortable. The toe strap feels supportive and very comfortable.

These are very cute, sturdy sandals, but they really hurt my feet after a 2 mile hike. I wanted a pair of sandals I could take long walks with while still looking cute, but the only way I can take long walks is with bandaids, and this is not because the shoes are too small or too big.

I was very excited when ordering this sandal as I was going to Spain for 12 days and doing a lot of walking. I wanted something comfortable and stylish that I could dress up or down. I am usually a size 7 in sandals so that is what I ordered. While I don't have narrow feet, they are very thin. However, when the sandals arrived, I felt my toes were hanging off the front and the arch was hitting in the wrong spot. I returned them and ordered the next size up. While the arch hit in the correct spot, the straps were too loose and the shoe flopped around on my foot. Sadly, I had to return those as well. I gave the shoes a 3 for overall and comfort but that was only because the straps were not adjustable and could not get them to work for me otherwise. I think if they came in a half sizes they would have been perfect and done very well for what I wanted. Zappos is awesome and easy to work with so I will keep purchasing from them.

I think these are so cute, but I knew I'd never wear them because they weren't very comfortable. The back and the toe leather rubbed.

These fit okay, but the jangling of the zipper makes these a no-go for me. Sounds like I have bells on my ankles!

Oh, how I love Chaco's. But though these are extremely cute, the straps over the toe are way too tight. I tried to loosen, but to no avail. I have to send them back.

I have several pairs of Chaco sandals and thought these guys would fit me and they don't. I have small bunions (sad face) and there's no chance I could wear these guys. Wish I could but they're definitely meant for narrow feet.
