Chaco Men's Lowdown FLIP Flop, Rising Nugget, 15

Whats to say. They are comfy as hell. The footbed is wonderful. They are true to size. The straps were a little stiff but I wet them with a hose while I was outdoors and walked around in them and instantly comfrotable. They did bite a little before that.now here is an IMPORTANT bit of information. I do not have wide feet. Pretty normal and I usually get a D width. I dont personally think the straps would fit on wider feet. They are going to bite and in my estimation be to tight. Dont think the straps will ever stretch but they are snug on my feet. Great for me because I hate sloppy flip flops but .. they may not fit someone with wide feet.

I live in the tropics and wear flip flops literally every day. I go through a pair every month or 2 until I got these. Going on a year strong. Definitely the best pair I've ever owned.

These run smaller than previous Chacos I have owned, compared to my others a new 10 is more like a 9.These are generally pretty comfortable and of the past Chaco flip flops I have had these seem like they will hold up well. This is the more flexible foot bed that usually does better with all day comfort for me (250+lb).My only real concern is that they feel too small for my feet now.. My three other Chaco flip flops that still have a little life in them and various other full sandal styles are all about a 1/2" longer when compared together. So what I have known a Chaco size 10 to be is now totally different. Even though I ordered a 10 this time the size feels closer to a 9 - 9 1/2 with what showed up.. I'm worried about going all of the way up to an 11 just to get that extra half size they don't offer but I don't like that my heels now extend past the backs of these. The whole point of wearing a shoe/Chaco is protection from the ground and if some of my foot is now exposed it really isn't worthwhile. Is this just Chaco trying to reduce a little less per pair but still charge the same? Reef did the same thing with a pair I recently tried out. - my feet haven't grown and I have always been a very consistent 10 with many brands prior.Otherwise, great look and I know they should hold up decently well.

I have been using Chacos Ecotread flips for more than 10 years, and was disappointed to see that they had stopped making them. When I found these I saw so many bad reviews from former Ecotread users that I left them in the cart but didn’t buy them.I ended up buying the OluKai flips, which are very popular as arch support flips. They are nowhere near as durable in the foot bed as the Ecotreads, but comfy and supportive.It turns out that my girlfriend went ahead and just bought all of the random items I had saved in my cart as possibilities, which I may or may not have bought.I have to say I’m actually very pleasantly surprised. I actually like this version much better than the old version that I have been using for years. They are only a little bit softer and they actually cradle the foot a little bit better with a slight lip all around the sandal, like a very mild version of the Birkenstock toe. Not only that, they don't have the soft foam foot bed like the Olukai, but rather a nice supportive rubber footbed that is reminiscent of Ecotread, but a tad softer.I went ahead and bought a second pair just in case Chakos changed their design based on bad reviews. I might even buy a third.

It’s hard to find size 15 mens flip flops. I’ve worn these things in rivers and oceans for years. I finally just broke the first pair I ever bought.

Don't order these if you don't have tiny Barbie doll feet. I love chacos even after they changed either the design or material for the sole. I even ordered a size larger than I normally do and these were way too small. I couldn't even get my toes under the strap to put them onto my foot. And I got them in men's. The sole is a little shorter than I would like as well considering a sized up. Glad I was able to get them on sale because I'm going to have to return them.

I love flip flops. Don’t care if they are cool or not. If I had it my way, I’d wear them year round (and used to when I was collage in the south). I was a Rainbow fan for life but found that I needed something more waterproof so I tried Keens (because I love their shoes). Great flops but didn’t last as long as Rainbows — still got multiple seasons out of it but not the 5+ I would get from Rainbows.This year I wanted to mix it up. I’ve never had Chaco’s but have heard nothing but good things about their sandals. Figured this would be a good trial. I’m two weeks in and absolutely love them.1. Comfortable day one, no awkward break in period for me for me. I’ve worn them daily and they just keep getting better.2. Great with water. I was caught in an unexpected absolute downpour of rain with no rain gear and was able to quickly get to where I was with my arms full of stuff without slippage — impressive for any sandle, let alone a flip flop3. Looks classic. It’s a flip flop.Can’t write about super long term use but so far, so good. Value/price is great too.
