Lightweight, comfortable, cool
Just an all around great sandal. Working in the yard to out on the lake, it’s comfortable, cool protection for your feet!

Classic
In my opinion, the aesthetic of this sandal far surpasses the traditional Chaco sandal. In fact, I have never purchased a normal Chaco sandal because I despise it's specific configuration from a purely aesthetic standpoint. The Bodhi style sandal is simply classic, like the Greek toga is, though unlike the toga it likely won't ever come into vogue. Practically, it make sense too.

Love my Bodhis
Love, love, love. If the toe strap on the z2 isn’t comfortable for you but you like the look get the Bodhi. So comfortable and because the toe strap is horizontal and not at an angle it’s so much more comfortable. Cute color.

Overall excellent but some areas for improvement
I was skeptical at first because I can't wear Z2's (with toe strap) because they tighten on my toe to the point where it cuts off circulation. The way these straps are configured do not cause that problem and I'm psyched. My absolute fav sandal for long hikes is the Bedrock Cairn and I'd still pick those for hiking bc they're lightweight and have a Vibram sole, but I bought these for the extra cushion and arch support for chill adventures. I am a slightly wide women's 11 but got the men's 9 for the superior color choice, and they fit perfectly. Areas for improvement: the long strap does not lie flat (like other reviewers mentioned) and it's annoying but feels ok once you get it situated. I have a high volume foot for a woman and even with the straps fully loosened I couldn't get my foot in at first. I almost gave up but after adjusting it for like 10 min I realized it accommodated a higher instep if you slide the buckle closer to the toes. Again, not a deal breaker but I don't see why they don't just make a longer buckle strap. Finally, the orientation of the straps and buckle makes it so the buckle loosens as you walk more so than the buckle on the Z's. This wasn't a huge issue for me though since I need to wear them nearly as loose as possible anyways. I still love these and found them equally if not more comfortable and stable/secure as my Z1's. Would be the best sandals ever if: longer strap, more colors, cloud footbed and Vibram sole!

For a mens shoe, this is almost unwearable
Straps are super short. I have to pull them all the way out with zero slac just to get my foot in the shoe. The buckle sits on top of my foot. These are awkward and poorly made. Cute, but i would not buy this style again.

Tough on your feet
Had a pair of Chaso's years ago and loved them, just got back from a trip to the Galapagos and they reccomended an pair of active wet sandals to stay on my feet coming in and out of a zodiac. I figured I would go with Chaco's over a set of Teva's or another. Unfortunately these are really not that practical and I ended up with blisters on my toes and ankles causing me to buy another pair of something different while in the Islands. The rest of my family did ok with their Chaco's but my experience wasn't great so I probably wont buy another pair in the future. This pair will be donated.

Bodhi Lovin’!
The are by far my favorite style of Chacos. They are so light weight but just as durable as my other Chacos. I think I need another pair!!!

Near perfect sandals with one major flaw
The Bodhi is everything I want in a sandal: low-profile "barefoot" sole, a toe strap, and cinch closure (as opposed to Velcro). In addition to a daily walk in the neighborhood, I wore these on once, if not twice, weekly hikes of five miles, give or take, for six months without issue (~300 miles). Over the last month or two, the straps started coming loose, requiring me to pause to re-tighten. In the beginning it was every mile, which is not an issue, then every 100 yards, and now it's every 100 feet, depending on the terrain. By loose I mean my foot is totally slipping out of the toe and ankle loops. This is a real PITA, especially when carrying a load and/or hiking with friends. I found that if I try to power on with loose sandals, I quickly get hot spots, not to mention less stability on the trail. None of the competition manufacturing similar sandals get it quite right and the Bodhi are so close to perfect, but the issue with loosening leaves them about as functional as flip-flops.
