These are only sold in full sizes. I had to go down a size for the arch to fit correctly. They're a little bit tight on one foot but I'm keeping them in hopes of stretching the leather. Very nice looking for work or casual wear. I initially bought a 9 but it was too big. My sister (who normally wears a 10) bought them from me and loves them! She's a teacher and is excited for a sandal she can stand in all day long. Will definitely look at other Chaco styles.

I love the width of this shoe. I measure as a medium width, but most shoes are too narrow in the toe box for me. The toe box is nice and wide. There is a lot of cushion, support and the shoe is relatively flat. I can wear this shoe all day on sidewalks and tile. This is my second pair of this style. The leather is very soft and does look distressed quickly. If one area is tight, the leather will give in a day or so. Very casual look, but can easily be worn with sundresses that are sporty or shorts.

Good fit. Purchased 1 size down from my usual size after reading reviews. Glad I did. Get lots of compliments on how cute they look. The only downside so far is the bottoms are slippery when it's wet outside. Maybe they need to be worn a little longer to roughen up the bottom a bit. They look good with casual dresses, shorts, capri's, or skinny jeans. Glad I purchased!

Love the look of these adorable Chacos. Wanted a comfortable pair of black flats that can be dressed up or wear for casual. These fit the bill! The arch support is not quite as good as my other Chocos, but still comfortable. My only complaint thus far, after several wears, is that the right toe strap starts rubbing after some time. I am going to give it several more wears before deciding. Cute is nice, but comfort is key!

Ive been looking to replace my summer walking sandals and when I saw these I thought they would do the trick. As soon as they came, I took them out of the box & put them on. They remained on my feet the rest of the day. They were soft but a sturdy soul, soft straps that secured on my feet but not tight. These are a dream come true. I will be wearing to Disney soon so they will truly be put to the test but so far they hit all the feels perfectly. The only thing I would say is that I have wide feet and they are so perfect but if you dont then they might run a little big. I have rather high arches and the support was perfect. I dont get a sharp pain in my arch like I do with flip flops.
The thing that would make these perfect, to me is if they had a little heel height. The previous ones I had gave me a little lift which makes them a little more stylish & if you're a heavy heel walker helps the shoes hold up a bit longer. These are the only reasons I didnt give it 5 stars.
Overall though these are about as perfect as anything I could find on the market.

I normally wear an 8.5 or 9 in women's shoes. I first ordered these in an 8.5 and liked the fit, arch support, width, and tightness of the straps but my big toe was nearly spilling over the front/inside corner of the sole. I tried a size 9 but the only noticeable difference was more space in the heel and looser fitting straps. Both pairs went back. I am normally a huge fan of Chacos and loved the style of these shoes but was overall disappointed. The straps were sewn crookedly (none of the shoes matched each other) and I could tell that these sandals would show wear too quickly. In my opinion, not worth the price.

I've been coveting Chacos for years but have never wanted to make the investment. I decided to try out a couple of pairs in preparation for an upcoming trip to warm temps with lots of walking. I did think the Dorra looked and felt much better than the Sofia (thong style with an ankle strap), but I've decided against them completely. For one thing, they are probably a full size too large (which could easily be switched with Zappos' service) and are very wide. I am a true size 7 medium width and the size 7s looked ridiculously large on me. I like that the big toe is stabilized in these, but I felt like my other toes would get fatigued - hard to say though since I was just wearing them around the house. Going to stick to Havaianas, 10 year-old Tevas, and my trusty Naturalizer flip flops.

Nice quality sandal. Perfect for jeans, shorts, and casual dresses. Just didn't work for me; the shape of the arch support in the sole hit my foot in the wrong spot, making them uncomfortable. This seems to be true of every Chaco style I try; so I guess my foot is just incompatible with this brand!

They are comfortable for leather sandals but not as comfortable and supportive as their sports sandals. They run pretty narrow. I wear size 5 sports sandals but need a 6 of these to get my feet in the straps. The straps are not long enough to be truly adjustable. Better suited for narrow feet.

I returned these because I have a narrow foot and these did not fit. I regally wear Chaco flip flops but these were very wide every where.

These shoes are really great! I was able to wear them all day right out of the box with no rubbing & they required no break-in. I usually have trouble with chaco toe loops being too tight for me, but this one is perfect! I do wish there were a little more cushion in the heal but that is my only complaint.

I love these sandals. The only complaint I have is that they run about 1/2 size too big. I am usually a size 8, but the 8 was a little too long, so I tried a size 7, which was too short. But they only come in half sizes! So I kept the 8's, and they are actually comfortable. They just look a little funny because there is a lot of shoe sole behind my heel.

Really cute sandals, I had my hopes up since I love the heck out of my classic Chacos. I was looking for something comfy for wearing all day with a little style. I had to crank the buckly all the way down since my feet are narrow, and it made the toe loop uncomfortable. Great looking shoe, feels sturdy and well made too, too bad it won't work for me.

These were super comfortable right out of the box. The footbed is slightly wider than I was expecting, and the toe strap is also generous. I have really skinny toes, though. I still thought they looked good. They're casual while still being nice enough to wear to work. They seem well made, and I was willing to pay the $ to get sandals with more support than the typical flats. These fit the bill.

Cute sandal (except for the wide heel) but I just couldn't the right fit. Probably need a half size in narrow width, although I don't have a problem with Yampa Chacos.

These are summer cute feminine looking and fit great. However, it does not have the great Chaco arch and heel support of the sporty sandals and closed shoes. Not sure these would hold up for me to all day walking without my plantar fasciitis kicking in again.

I came so close to loving this shoe. Really comfortable and great support, but the toe loop dug in to the inside of my toe. It seemed like a blister waiting to happen, so unfortunately, these sandals are going back.

These sandals are definitely very sturdy and I can tell they will last a long time. I usually wear a 6.5 so I ordered a 6 and they were a little long, but if I had ordered the 5 the non-adjustable strap would have been too tight for my wide feet. The toe strap is elasticized so nearly every part of the sandal is adjustable except for the one strap that crosses the top of the foot. My only other complaint is that I've had these for only about a month, and the color on the leather straps is rubbing off and disappearing completely so they are a much lighter color and matte texture now (which takes away from the cool contrast with the stitching).

These are pretty cute for comfort shoes. The arch support is good, they fit true to size. The only drawback is weight. I find them to be a little heavy and clunky.

I've never worn Chacos before, and I find them smaller all around than I would have expected. I don't usually wear wide shoes, but I find these pretty narrow -- not uncomfortable, but about as narrow a shoe as my foot can fit. I also find them too small by about a half size, but of course these don't come in half sizes--so I expect the next size up will be too big. The ankle strap seems short, so that your foot is pushed forward in the footbed and there's some space behind the back of the heel? I'm sending back -- too bad. Comfy and cute but way too small.

Very comfortable and supportive sandal and looks attractive enough. Only complaints are the footbed will start to retain odor relatively quickly, which usually is not an issue for me. Also, the elastic at the buckles have almost completely ripped apart. So, I won't be able to wear these again next year unfortunately

Lasted one summer, replacing them. Bought these a year ago and really love the style, and how they fit initially. The toe strap was a touch tight, but did break in pretty quickly as other reviewers had noted. Wore them all the time, then started noticing one pretty big issue: the leather under foot is very smooth, letting your foot slide too easily around. A couple of times on slightly uneven ground, one of my feet would slip and I'd roll an ankle. After a few months of wear, the leather straps all loosened up, then this would happen even more. I tightened it down one more notch, but with only one place to make an adjustment, eventually these sandals became sloppy. Now I was never treating them like standard rubbersoled Chacos that some people even hike in, but I definitely expected to be more surefooted than these offer. They look great, the sole is super comfortable so they're great for wearing all day and walking, but that sloppiness issue, there's just no getting around it. So these lasted one summer (or really less, I should have replaced them sooner). For $90, they better last at least two summers. I've had cheap fake leather Clarks last 3 or 4 summers.

I own many pairs of Chaco athletic sandals and was excited to see the new "dressy" styles. I am disappointed in the comfort level of these compared to their original styles. I have bad feet and need cushion and arch support. These shoes are hard with much less arch support. There is still more support than your average dressy sandal, but I was expecting more from this brand. My feet hurt after wearing these all day due to lack of cushion. The look and style of these is fantastic - I just hope they add some cushion and make them more comfortable.

Beautifully constructed shoe, fit perfectly as 7. Return due to the slippery surface facing the foot. I like a sole with a better grip. I felt like I was going to slide out of them when walking. I walked down stairs and my foot started sliding out of the shoe, with toes hanging over the edge.

The shoe seemed to run large. I have never bought Chacos before so I wasn't sure how they run. Normally I wear an 8.5 or 9...this was very large on me.
