Why do other companies even make sandals?

These are the best sandals ever created. The strap design lets me easily put them on/off, just as quickly as flip flops, but they never fall off. Whether I’m walking, hiking, wading in a river, climbing, or even sprinting, they are my preferred shoe choice. My last pair lasted me almost 10 years, unlike Velcro styles which wear out much faster. I look forward to wearing these for many summers.

Most Comfy Sandal Ever

This is my 3rd pair of Z’s in 15 years. Nothing wrong with the other pairs, just wanted a new pair as my 15 year old pair has become my “mowing sandals”. I basically wear chacos daily! I love the Z1 Classics

classic for a reason

I've had several pairs of chacos now including the Z classics and rapid pros and have been hiking and using them for daily use for years. They are still the only sandals I've owned that never give me blisters, not even after 10+ miles. I prefer the classics of the rapid pros; the latter has the two parts of the sole glued and this glue failed on a hot hike after owning them for a couple of years. The classics have the sturdiest design and last for years even with intense use. The Chaco sole material also has more grip than the Vibram sole, although it's still quite slippery on wet metal surfaces (watch out for manhole covers in the rain..). Basically, I hope they don't change the classic design ever. The only downside is that they do get stinky at times, but that can be fixed by throwing them in the washing machine.

Goodbye, Chaco.

I recently purchased a new pair of Z/1s, and they are 1/4" too short compared with my older Z/1s. I've been a customer, furthermore a raving fan, for 21+ years, but now the product now longer fits. I purchased the next size up (size 12) to see if they would work, but they are too long for my foot plus the heel leash is too loose. I called for support, but half sizes are not possible and heel leash adjustments are only possible through the custom shop (higher cost vs. stock items plus additional lead times). As an engineer, I'm utterly baffled why such a change would be made that alienates existing customers. It's always easier and less costly to keep an existing customer than to find a new one. So sad to post this since I even have the "Chaco Professional" sticker to prove my brand love that started so long ago.

One of the best outdoor sandals.

I’ve absolutely loved my Chaco’s so far. I initially purchased them for a trip. They have easily become my favorite sandal and I have been wearing them everyday. As someone who comes from using previous outdoor sandals, these ones are just clearly superior. From the way they hold your foot in place, to their rugged and durable traction, they will be exactly what you want if you’re looking for an outdoor sandal! Another thing I really appreciate about these shoes is how quickly they dry after using them for water related activities. Cant recommend them enough!
