Chaco Fan - I own a pair of Z/2 Chacos and wanted to try the new style of the ZX without the wrap-around toe. I love the freedom this ZX/1 offers the toes. Like other Chacos with their adjustable straps, it takes a little time to get used to and to get the straps in the right place. I picked the men's shoe because I noticed the thicker straps and my size was available. I usually wear size 7 in other shoes, but was fitted in a women size 8 for these sandals. This size translates into a man’s 7, which fits great. When I tighten the straps to my foot, I do notice there is a lot of slack that gets stepped on, but that is easily fixable. Overall, I am a fan of the Chaco because of its versatility; I use them for hiking, water wadding and casual wear.

Chaco Unaweep - The wrap system of Chaco's Unaweep keeps sandal on the foot in the most secure way possible for a sandal. Cinch em up and climbing up a steep grade is no problem. The footbed is highly shaped for comfort in the arch and midfoot area. The only negative I have about this sandal is the rubber on the insole surface is very hard and a little uncomfortable to the foot, but this is offset by the great shape of the insole that relieves muscle fatigue while walking. The strapping takes a little trial and error to get a comfortable fit - a little loose is the key to comfort with these straps. Great sandal - I have a couple pairs.

Good construction - The Chacos ZX/1 Unaweep sandals are very comfortable, and the construction is solid. You can expect them to last a long time. And if you visit the Chacos website you can read about how if by some way they do get ruined, you can send them in and have them repaired. A great plus is that they are built in the U.S.A. and will be doing so for a short time only, since they are going to start having them constructed in foreign lands. Hope this helps.

Chaco - Great water sandal THE best on the market! This is my third pair and they feel a little different than the last one's I had the heel cup is a little narrow and has produced some blisters but. It is soft rubber so it should break in (I hope) The sole is like a hiking shoe which is great for hiking and river crossing etc. a little clunky looking for town but not too bad.

Have worn black Z/1 for the past 10 yrs. Outstanding sandal. Wear them EVERYWHERE. They've taken a lot and been loyal. But there comes a time to update. Bought the ZX/1 this time (shale color). Same outstanding fit, same durability. The dual straps are maybe a little easier to adjust. The newer Unaweep sole seems a little heavier, but is great on all surfaces. I give this sandal a full 5 stars all the way around.

Fantastic service! Thank you Customer Loyalty Team. This is my second pair of Chaco's, and love them both, great fitting, with a well fitting arch. My wife who was not interested at first, loves them now, especially the arch support, (caught her trying on my Chaco's one morning). So I venture to say, we will be ordering a pair for her real soon. Thanks again Zappos and Customer Loyalty Team for the two day service.

Love These Shoes! These are the best! I am 62 with problem feet and am overweight. The Chaco's are comfortable, easy on and off once they are adjusted, perfect for inside and out. I wear them all summer and hate to put them away in the winter. I might like the look better if I were younger, but I will take the comfort over looks any day.

I bought this shoe in a men's version because the women's 9 is too narrow and the women's 10 is too long for my foot. Men's 8 was exactly right. The footbed is the reason I like Chacos so much. The shoe is a little heavier than I would like it to be, but I am definitely satisfied with this purchase.

Great looking shoes - How do you say sexy looking shoes? ZX/1. Takes some time to get adjusted right but fit like a glove after that. Looks great in jeans or shorts. Have the black pair and am going to get the rye and blue ones to match all color clothes.

Great outdoor shoe - I love my Chaco’s. At first they were a little uncomfortable until I adjusted the bands. Then they fit my feet perfectly. I wore them as a camp counselor and they were so comfortable.
