Disappointed in your opinion

The seam where the hard plastic piece goes through came out and I had to sew it back on. The strap on my other shoe is stuck and I can't adjust it and it's too tight. I heard great things, I was excited to get them. But it was a big disappointment.

Pros
  • Offers excellent traction
Cons
  • Not suitable for warm weather

Fingers can sometimes feel a bit squishy

I paid about $70 for them in April, it's crazy how much the price has gone up. I usually wear a size 10 but I wear a size 11. Sometimes my toe can get a little tight but that can be fixed.

Pros
  • Provides enough cushioning for comfortable walking
Cons
  • Sandals are bulky

Not the best experience.

I'm not entirely sure why I'm so unhappy about getting these chacos. I first got a pair that was too small so I sent them back and ordered a bigger pair but the laces ended up getting completely stuck. It didn't move at all and pressed into my skin that was too painful to wear. I ended up just sending it back but I never received the shoes. It was a disappointing experience as I was looking forward to a shoe with such a high rating.

Pros
  • Non-marking ChacoGrip outsole.
Cons
  • Sharp points on steps

Ready to use - once you get used to it

These shoes were highly recommended to me. The quality of the materials is excellent. I have high hopes for these shoes. The only thing I had trouble with was that the straps fit my feet perfectly! I still gave them 5 stars because I think they are a good customization system. I just need a little bit to get there.

Pros
  • Once you adjust the straps, they become very comfortable.
Cons
  • Size runs small

Love it! new rating

I've been waiting years to finally order these after seeing a friend wearing them and I'm not disappointed! I still have to get used to the strap adjustments but they feel so good and sturdy. Best of all, unlike many other sandals I've had in the past, they're water repellent (!). Not sure how the cleaning will go, but having only had it for a week I'm happily getting used to it.

Pros
  • Reduces the risk of foot injuries
Cons
  • uncomfortable to wear

Strange smell suits me

As we all know, chacos are great. I like the pattern but the smell is so chemical and plastic. It won't go away either. I've aired them out and worn them everywhere and you can still smell them throughout the room.

Pros
  • Adjustable strap for a perfect fit
Cons
  • Heavy insole

Adjusting the straps in my review

I love the support these sandals offer and they are definitely high quality, but the adjustable strap tends to smother my big toe after a while no matter how much space I start out with.

Pros
  • Breathable and comfortable design
Cons
  • Rigid straps

Perfect sandals!

Chaco sandals are the best! Good quality, comfortable and easy to clean. long lasting, I went for a solid pink color and I love this color! I highly recommend these sandals! I wear them with everything! Jeans, shorts, dresses! Yes, they cost a little more. However, they are worth it. They last forever!

Pros
  • The best outdoor sandals I've ever owned and the cutest!
Cons
  • Not waterproof

Great value for money.

They are simple but powerful with excellent support. I wanted hiking sandals that would look good on a sandy or rocky beach. This is compliant. There were no half sizes so I ordered a 9 instead of the 8 1/2 I usually wear and they are ok.

Pros
  • Arrived on time and it was exactly what she wanted.
Cons
  • One of the straps is not sliding as it should. I cannot adjust the fit of the sandal.

Chaco sandals have excellent soles and arch support.

I really like how well supported these sandals are and I have a feeling they will hold up well. The straps have a sort of system where you pull on them to adjust them to your foot. It may just take a while to get used to it, but some days I feel like my thumb is choking every day. I don't know if they're tense or if my fingers are swollen. So. I don't like that about them and they take longer to put on and take off as you have to put them on and take them off every time.

Pros
  • Ideal for people with high arches
Cons
  • The strap material wears out easily

I love these my pros and cons

I love these, but the toe strap tends to tighten as you walk, requiring you to pull it up a few times throughout the day. Loves the color way too tight to even get my toe in.

Pros
  • This is the best I've ever had to switch to both knees and they feel great.
Cons
  • Loves the color too tight to even insert a toe

Great sandals for outdoor adventures

I bought these sandals for a trip to Costa Rica where I will be doing many outdoor activities and water adventures and these shoes were perfect! My only regret is that I didn't buy them sooner. I usually wear a size 7 but had to downsize to a size 6 for maximum comfort.

Pros
  • The strap is a bit tight on the top of the foot, but it's great for rocks and river springs.
Cons
  • Uncomfortable fit

My favorite sandals!

The perfect surprise for our vacation in Hawaii! I've worn them everywhere. It doesn't matter if we were at the beach, strolling through Volcanoes National Park or just strolling around and looking at all the shops. They worked great and my grip was always reliable. No blisters or signs of wear on the legs or ankles.

Pros
  • My daughter in Chocos Super Fan, that's all she wears. They fit just great - we'll probably get another pair.
Cons
  • Insufficient sole flexibility

so disappointed - my new review

Have been there before, but 9 are very tight... 10 ordered... The L shaped foot seems ok but the straps on the right shoe are too long…. Tightened all the way - still oddly matched and loose walking... sorry I've worn them a few times to try and make them work so I probably won't be able to return 😏 would love to try another pair but to expensive for a test run

Pros
  • Strong and durable
Cons
  • Soft foam gives way underfoot

My new favorite shoes

Great fit, all-day comfort. Haven't tried them for hiking yet but they support all day walking well on uneven ground. No flats are going to like these - they have bulges, just like I was hoping. I find the straps to be easy to adjust and fit comfortably without being tight (or loose) in any area. Don't rub, don't flop. I can't say anything bad about her.

Pros
  • Provides excellent arch support
Cons
  • The cracking takes too long

Good shoes but NOT worth $100

I'm sure they are great for other people but not for me. I have a high arch and yet the arch of the shoe puts so much pressure on the arch of the foot that it causes calf cramps. The sole can fit better around your foot on the sides. Not my favourite.

Pros
  • Can be worn with or without socks
Cons
  • No support on the arch

Great sandals, just not for me

1. Listen to the feedback on the M and W widths - if you're somewhere in between or slightly more than M, or your foot swells throughout the day, go for the W width. You'll mainly feel it in the plantar cup, which your foot lands on. Also, the arch of the foot is so high that it inevitably causes your foot to swing a little more than normal. 2. Listen to reviews of chunky/chunky/heavy sandals - if you're looking for a cute, lightweight, everyday sandal that can be used for everything, I…

Pros
  • Provides stability and heel hold
Cons
  • Uncomfortable between the fingers

love these sandals!

They are so durable and comfortable. This is the first time I've tried a harness and I love it! Great support and I usually wear them until there's no sole left!

Pros
  • Fits as expected
Cons
  • Poor grip on wet surfaces

Not as convenient as the hype

I had high hopes for them based on the many great reviews. Unfortunately they didn't work for me. I have very sensitive skin so the straps were very rough and I could tell they would chafe and blister. There was also a ridiculous learning curve figuring out how to adjust the straps and I can't even say I didn't have pictures as an apology. The insole was quite hard. Another reviewer mentioned that the straps tighten as you walk. That was the main reason I sent them back. Just as I was walking…

Pros
  • I have a 7.5 and after reading the reviews I downsized it
Cons
  • Not suitable for all foot types

I think the tape is scratched.

The strap is hard and scratchy, only rubs against the inside of the foot and the toe when trying on. It didn't seem to soften or stretch out over time so I went back. It's also very difficult to set up.

Pros
  • Easy customization. I really liked the pattern on the braid - excellent summer sandals. They look very durable and functional.
Cons
  • wear out quickly
