Tried them all, these are the best

By:

These can be slipped on and kicked off like flip flops but are oh, so much more. Efficient, durable design will last until they are lost or stolen - that's why I bought a backup pair.

Maybe just a fluke

By:
October 7, 2008

I love the design of the zong but the straps didn't stay in place. The strap near my ankle would get real loose and the straps near the front of my foot would get real tight. After one day of wearing them I had blisters/burns on my feet where the front straps rubbed.

Thong sandals hurt,

By:
August 8, 2008

But these feel great! I developed plantar fascitis in my foot and flat stopped wearing thong sandals because they were making the pain worse. I decided to try these because of the footbed on a recent beach vacation and have to report that my feet have never felt better. The arch support is second to none including my previous pair of tevas. I was just going to wear them around the beach but now wear them all the time. I wear a size 15 nike running shoe and the 15 zong fit perfect. Go to the chaco website for a printable sizing chart you can place your foot on if you are not sure what size to get.

Long like Chong

By:
July 1, 2008

I guess I just have to bite the bullet and accept that the beloved Chong style is not coming back. Dang it. I like the look of the Chong better than the Zong, maybe I'm a ding-dong! Love the Chaco footbed, better than any other for us high arched trekkers. Like others have said, can do ANYTHING in the Chacos. If you coming out of them, snug up the straps and you can't go wrong. Bang a Gong!

Great Purchase

By:
June 30, 2008

Once I got the straps where I need them they have been great! Don't know if they'll be quite as hike-able as the models with a heel strap but they feel quite secure. Also, I discovered that if I want more big toe freedom, I could skip that strap and have a looser fit.

What a Sandal

By:
January 10, 2007

I have had the zong for about two years now and I am at this site to buy a new pair exactly like them. They don't fall off my feet, they get me where I need to go, and they outlast anything out there. i personally have heel-straps and the zong has provided me with a secure fit with the ease of slippers. i have mountain biked in them, horse-back ridden in them, ran, climbed, jumped, even pushed cars.i wore them on moving day while walking backwards with a couch in my hands. its 30 degrees F today and i am wearing them now. good sandals

Chong

By:
October 1, 2006

I actually have a pair of Chongs, the predecessor of the Zong. Have had them over 3 years now and they just won't die. Bomber sandals...and still one of my favorites. The only time I have issues with sliding out the back is if its a bit wet, etc. I almost lost them in knee-deep mud hiking a slot canyon recently, which is a situation it would've been nice to have the backs on, but I honestly prefer the ease and comfort of the backless sandals. Five stars.

Hard Working

By:
August 15, 2005

I've had my Zongs for 3 years now, and they are still going strong. Living in Australia, I wear them a lot and the straps have lasted a lot longer than my Z2s. I have no problems keeping them on; in fact, I can walk up steep wet slopes faster than a mate in Tevas with a backstrap. They also go well with jeans.

my favorites

By:
July 15, 2005

I know I am a girl but I actually bought the men's version because I like the wider sole... I cannot live without these sandals. I am convinced of it. I have 3 pairs of Chacos now and these definitely head up the rotation. I have worn these hiking, around town, paddling; pretty much everywhere and I love them. They are completely comfortable, they stay on when I need them too and slip off when I don't. My only problem is once you get sand in the soles at the strap holes it gets tougher and tougher to adjust.

goin' strong

By:
July 11, 2005

I've had a pair of these for almost 2 years now and they are still one of my all-time favorites. No, I wouldn't want to go do a 5-mile hike in them, but they are super comfortable and way more secure than just a pair of flops. I've tried to trash them but they still look and feel practically new, plus Chaco's customer service rocks--they'll resole, fix your straps, etc. Pretty cool.

Do the opposite!

By:
June 15, 2005

You know, I had the same problem at first as the guy whose foot kept coming out of the sandal. But I tell you, when I loosened the sandal straps over my instep, it made a huge difference. It's as if the tightened straps actually pushed my foot out, while the loosened straps allowed my foot to stay in the sandal with ease. These things are amazing! Just like George Kanstanza on Seinfeld, if you "Do the opposite," it really works!

more a thong than a utility sandal

By:
April 12, 2005

Perhaps it is just the shape of MY foot, but the tighter I strap these on, the more they want to wiggle off. I love the fit when I am just hanging out, but if I am walking any distance or hiking, I have to scrunch my toes to keep from wiggling out the back. Thus, they are not much more utilitarian than a regular pair of thongs. I'm not sure that a medium exists between thongs and the full on sandal with backstrap.
