Chaco Z/2 Unaweep Sandal - Men's

5 Star Rating

Killer sandals

By Ranked #12 - Men's Technical Sandals April 17, 2009

I have owned two pair of these for probably 5-7 years, and there's really not much to say that hasn't already been said. The footbed is very comfortable, and they do provide good arch support. The toe-loop seems a little funky, until you're crossing an incline and you realize just how much lateral support it provides. They do well in and out of the water, and are very sturdy. Hiking in them is not a problem, unless there's a lot of mud or rocks/scree. They are good for wading in rivers, although (like most sandals) they don't have great traction on submerged mossy rocks. My experience is that they fit true-to-size. If you are a die-hard sandal aficionado, you likely already have a pair of these. If you don't, I'd recommend that you give them a try. However, if you are going to be spending a lot of time in and out of water or scrambling over boulders (where traction is very important) I would definitely consider the Z/2 Pro's (that have a sole that provides better traction, but is a marking sole).
