Style, comfort, sturdy
Always wore Teva's but the quality and fit not as good as they use to be. TEVA doesn't have Wide. So I thought it was time to try something new. I saw Chaco Z Classic and Cloud had a wide but I wasn't crazy about the styles. I choose the Chaco Z/Cloud without the toe loop because of the comfort. I read the classic is more durable for rough terrain so maybe someday I will try those.Fits great- My feet don't feet constraint and the sandals are securely on my feet. They are adjustable but it took me a few days before I had them perfectly adjusted for comfort to slip on and off.Style - This is where I had trouble. Looks like some style from an ancient greek movie. I didnt like either style at first. Loop around the big toe I didn't think I would like. I went for the open toe style. Granted the straps around the rest of the foot is the same and adjust the same but didn't think it would be comfortable for me.Support - what convinced me was the podiatrist-certified footbed. It's comfortable and really has great arch support. Seems to be much better over the new TEVA terra. The softer footbed on the Z cloud is unique from the Z classic but I really haven't tried the classic to compare how big of a difference.Only one Negative is the footbed has a strong rubberize like the smell but it seems to be fading some the more I wear them. I'm assuming that its just the Z cloud because of the footbed cushion. I only saw one other comment on the Zcloud only about the smell. Keep in mind to smell it you need to put it closer to your face so unless you like smelling your shoes that close to your face I don't see it being a problem. LOL!
I have been an avid fan of the sandals company and have been using them for the last 15 years at least. This newer version with the cushioning makes the sandals even better than the original. I am in love with the feel and they are simply the best ones out there. Super comfy, fit as expected, easy to adjust (but this is where most people screw up, they don’t read the instructions that are included), and they are rocksolid for anything you need to do. highly recommend, will be purchasing many times over.
My girlfriend suggested I check Amazon for Chacos, not only did I find the ones I was looking for, they were at a great price as well!
I do like these chacos, but I struggle with wearing it for long rocky excursions. It provides great support but you have to alsoMake sure the straps are well adjusted for your toes relative to your feet. You get used to it I guess, I just didn’t get there yet cause figuring out to balance the looseness of the straps and feet swelling after walking over a period of time.I do recommend them if you are the fence and get used to them as they provide good arch support and look good.
Ok. So here's the deal, these use brannock sizing. Remember that metal plate in shoe stores that you played with as a kid and eventually stopped using? Yeah that's the size Chaco goes by. In running shoes I'm a solid 11, my toes generally have little to no gap at the end of the shoes and my forefoot is exactly where it should be. 11 in chacos and I was wearing cargo boats instead of sandals. Dropped down a full size to 10 as that's my brannock size, and they fit just like they should. So, if you don't want to do returns just to get the size right, head to a shoe store, use that silly piece of metal, get your size (width too), and then purchase these.
Life changing, I never knew Chaco made sandals in a wide format for us with extra large feet. My feet are approximately 5" wide at most and my foot fits perfectly well on the foot pad, which is also right at 5" at the widest. I owned and completely wore out my original Z2's over the course of ~10 yrs, the straps finally busted somewhere inside footbed. Those originals were equipped with "Vibram" soles, hoping these live up to the challenge!
I've worn this style of Chacos for many years in all kinds of conditions. The 'cloud' feature is a little bit softer, and may be nice at the beginning of the season until your feet have toughened up. Really not worth an extra cost, and the jury's out on whether this additional layer will reduce the longevity due to an increased chance for delamination.I really do like the sole design on these. I'm not sure why but they seem to have more traction and somewhat better stability on rough surfaces.Overall, very satisfied as usual with Chaco.
