Chaco Z/1 Adjustable Strap Classic Sandal Women

These are my first pair of Chacos, and now I think I'll always have a pair. I bought an expensive pair of barefoot sandals two summers ago and loved them except that they broke this summer after only less than a year of continuous light use (sandal weather is about 5 months out of the year where I live). I picked this pair because they're repairable as well as being cheaper than the other pair I'd had. Having actually worn them for a few weeks, I can honestly say these seem to be very well constructed, and I'd be surprised if I'm needing repairs in two summer's time, although it's nice to know I don't have to throw out the whole shoe if I do. The sole is thick, and I feel l can walk over any terrain in them. I prefer to hike in close-toed shoes, but I do live in an area with lots of opportunities for casual hiking and would feel comfortable wearing these on the trail on an impromptu hike. I do love how adjustable the straps are, and these don't cause any foot pain like what had led me to barefoot shoes in the first place.

Comfortable fun sandals that fit perfectly. This is probably my 10th pair of Chaco shoes over the years. The only shoes I can wear without an insert for Plantar Fasciitis. I've never worn a pair out. 5 stars for sure.
