This is my first pair of chacos and I'm pretty happy... I usually wear 7.5 so ordered size 8. The sole grip & arch support feels great, leaving a good amount of toe room for hiking and such. The double straps are a bit difficult to adjust evenly, but certainly make for the cutest style.

I normally wear a size 09.5 in footwear. I own a pair of ZX/2's in a size 10.0 because they are available in whole sizes only and they are perfect. They fit me well in terms of arch support, heel, and overall length.
Chacos are the only shoes I now purchase. They work better than orthodic insoles my pediatrist provided to alleviate my plantar faciatis.
The only minor design flaw I find in these sandal, as well as other similar models, is that the strap you pull to tighten the sandal is too long (and I have thick feet and ankles.) I tuck it into the stationery ankle strap so I don't walk on it. You could cut it, I just can't bear to damage these great shoes.
Do these shoes come in medium and wide widths. I tried them on in a store and I don't remember a choice of widths. Other sites are carrying medium and wide .........what width are yours?
The ZX/2 does come in medium and wide widths but I am not sure what width it is for this site. To determine the width, the back of the heel on the sole symbolizes what width the shoe is (dots or hyphens). For example, if the back of the shoe says -7W- it stands for a Womens Wide in a size 7.
After listening to all my friends rave about Chaco's for years, I finally gave them a try. I'm a convert- they're by far the most comfortable sandals I've ever owned. I love the strap system, especially the toe strap. The fit feels very secure but not constrictive. Although it took me a few days to get them set right, they fit perfectly now. I don't find any strap slippage at all. The traction is great, especially for water and rocks (kayaking and hiking). Sporty but cute- very feminine looking- not clunky. I also love the arch support. Highly recommend!
I tried this brand on in a store, different style. I order the style I wanted, it was too big. Shipping was free and but not the return - wasn't willing to pay for postage again.
This is my second pair of Chacos and I'm not a fan of the double strap. It's incredibly difficult to adjust and kept slipping around. I finally got annoyed and sold them on ebay. I had a Z/2 pair before and LOVED those because once you adjusted them, they stayed put and didn't hurt. Chacos are incredibly comfortable and I recommend the Z/2
I have had my Chaco sandals for 8 years and still find them on my feet regularly. They look good on, are durable and most importantly the most comfortable sandal.
I have had my chaco sandals for 8 years and I still wear them regular, super comfy, durable and look good on the foot for sure. I highly recommend this sandal.
hey, it looks like a pretty even split of people large vs small.
I'd say your foot width should decide it. I am a 6.5 but am a bit wider at the toe joint- so, the 7 is PERFECT. I'd say size up because they're so adjustable, BUT, If you have really narrow feet- than size down. Enjoy! they're awesome shoes!!
I am an almost exact 7.5 with one foot very slightly larger and I get the 8. They feel weird at first but I tried a 7 and there was no way they would work. I have extra room in the 8 but the straps keep the shoes on so my feet don't move around. I tried some without the toe strap and found they didn't feel as secure. Hope that helps but you may just have to experiment. =)
These run a half size larger. I wear an 8.5 and the 9s are HUGE and because of the way the foot bed is molded, a larger size won't work. What may work since you are between sizes is to get the wide width. I got the size 8 wide and they fit perfectly.
I'm in the same boat. But I got an 8 in this shoe and they fit better than the 7. I think I have fat feet too, so the bigger size is more comfortable on the straps too.
I bought these for my girlfriend for her birthday and she absolutely loves them. She wears them around casually almost every day. She wanted to sleep in them the first night she liked them so much! She wears 6 1/2 or 7 size shoes and I bought her a 6 in these Chacos. They fit perfect!
I've had my zx/2's for almost 2 years. I wear them nearly every day in the summer. They're kind of a pain to adjust though; but once you fit them to your feet you don't have to worry about it again. These Chaco's are really comfortable! The double straps contour really well.
Probably not the best for hard core hiking (no foot protection, not the best support). But for just casual summer activities (casual hiking, walking, biking, etc.)
I also wore these everyday on my trips to rural Haiti (lots of walking, scouting, and trekking through rocky creeks/rivers.)
Is this shoe available in big kids sizes ? if not how does a womens size 5 compare with a kids size 3. Could they possibly wear a Chaco in a womens size 5 in a Z/2 or this shoes. Thanks
I like the comfy foot bed and vibram sole, but I'm not sure about the straps. The portion of the strap around my big toe tightens during climbing approach hikes, and it gave me blisters where they contacted my big toe. It seems the straps need adjustment every time I put them on because of the issue of tightening around the big toe. I've only owned the sandals for 4 days now, so my opinion might change. Perhaps over time I'll find a way to make the toe strap not tighten and my skin will toughen up so I don't get blisters.
I love my new Chaco's!! I'm on my feet all day in a waterpark and they are amazing! At first, they rubbed the top of my big toes and heels because I was not used to having parts of a shoe there, but once I got past that short "breaking in" period, they've been great! My feet are never achey at the end of a long day and I now wear them in place of my beloved flip flops all the time. I sometimes have flare-ups from plantar fasciitis but these completely alleviate it. The arch support is great and the shoe cups your heels. They are super grippy too! The last thing I'm thinking about all day are my feet when I wear these, they are awesome! You won't regret the investment =)
I love this sandal. I have many friends who have chacos..and I have always be skepitcal to buying them. One was the cost and two I didnt think they were very attractive. Now that I have them neither of those things matter. Its quality foot gear! I love the toe strap and the smaller straps on this design are a bit more feminine. Don't hesitate to buy this product. You won't regret it.
i love the style and the arch support. i have really high arches, and these seem like an extension to my food. the only problem i have with them is the 'big toe' wrap around. it's a little bit tight. i'm still trying to finagle my way around getting it a bit looser, but as you can imagine, if you loosen up one part, another part gets tight. over all though, they are awesome, and i'll keep them for all my hiking ventures. happy shopping!
At first I was skeptical about spending so much on a pair of active sandals....but after seeing many people I work with wearing them I decided to take the plunge. Initially it took me a few days to break them in and I worried that they didn't fit my foot correctly. After a good few days of use they fit perfectly! I'm so happy with them and would recommend them to any friend. (I also like how feminine they look)
I have flat feet and wearing my Chacos I can walk all day with no problem!! What's ebst is being able to throw them in the washer and they look brand new!!
I was desperately searching for a pair of not-hideous-but-really-comfortable sandals to trek around in while tailgating at UT games. We tailgate at LEAST two miles away from the stadium and cute flip flops tear my feet to shreds. I chatted with a backcountry person who recommended these sandals. They are FABULOUS. I have walked around everywhere (outside of work) to get used to them without any complaints! The texture on the bottom took me a little while to get used to but doesn't hurt. Love them!
