Review on 👣 Chaco Z1 Ecotread Sandal: Superior Comfort & Durability for Kids of all Sizes! by Brad Ward

I don't know what to add to the review that hasn't already been said about Chacos. They live up to their hype by offering excellent arch support and fully adjustable straps. I bought two types of Z/1: size 6 for children (leopard print) and size 8 for women (purple braid). They were the SAME size - the only difference was the sole - the women had a (now) discontinued waterproof sole which made the shoe too heavy for me. The kids' sandals were lighter but didn't give me enough support or the characteristically aggressive Chaco arch support that women's sizes usually have. I ended up returning both and buying a women's chaco with a Yampa sole (also in a different style, Z/2 - for more support). Overall, both the women's and children's sandals provided decent support - I just felt that arch support on children's feet was not as defined as adult sandals. As for the sizes, the photo shows that children 6 and women 8 are the same in length and width (the width is normal).
