Comments about Chaco Hipthong Sandals - Women's:

I love all Chacos but these are probably my favorite. I like being able to slip them on and having them stay on. I have the ZX/2 and they irritate a few spots on my feet but the Hipthong does not do that. I have them in Pebble and they look great with everything. I'd get a pair in black next.

Comments about Chaco Hipthong Sandals - Women's:

These sandals are an excellent casual sandal. Since I am a big fan of the chaco leather flip, as soon as I saw these in brown, I had to have them so I could have brown sandals that could stand to be wet and have the support of the Z/1 and Z/2 with the cross over straps. I just went on a cruise and they were the shoe I wore the most - they went with everything but formal attire! They were great on the beach or walking around the streets of ports.

    Comments about Chaco Hipthong Sandals - Women's:

    The hipthongs are my favorite pair of Chacos. I own the flips flops as well as the Z1 sandals, but the hipthongs are the best of both. They have the great sole and arch support of the Z1's as well as the easy on and off of the flips. They are cute, but comfortable and rugged enough to wear all day long camping, to the zoo, etc. Definately a fantastic purchase.

      Comments about Chaco Hipthong Sandals - Women's:

      tried these on as a whim and because they felt good bought them spur of the moment at the beginning of a casual trip in hot dry weather last june. no regrets - didn't wear any other shoes except running shoes (for running) rest of the week.
      can't wear them outside as much at home, but still think they're great. the adjustable cross-foot strap lets you tighten or loosen the fit depending on need. definitely more like a shoe/sandal than flip-flop but with flip-flop convenience. has a "real" sole with support.
      previous chaco experience: liked chaco z1/z2, didn't like zong
      thought these looked weird at first but now i think they look cool. the fact that they work so well didn't hurt. definitely a great example of functional design.
      sizing experience: normally 5.5/36/36.5/standard width/higher arches - size 6 in these has been fine - generous fit but not too big. My older z1/z2s were both size 5.

        Comments about Chaco Hipthong Sandals - Women's:

        Couldn't decide between this one, or the flip flop - so glad that I got this one because the sole is thicker and the adjustable strap is great. I need sturdy shoes because of pronation and this shoe provides stability.

            I love these sandals! I have several pair of Chacos and two pairs of the Hipthong.
            I wear them to hike and camp as well as out on the town. Very versatile and cute, goes with most things! Super comfy as well.

              Comments about Chaco Hipthong Sandals - Women's:

              This are hands-down the best shoes I own!! I bought mine about six weeks ago, and I can only think of a handful of days I haven't worn them since then, and those days involved new snow. They are extremely comfortable and I feel great walking any distance in them. I have low arches, and at first they were a little too supportive, but now that my foot has adjusted to them they are phenomenal. I recently went to the Caribbean, and these were the only shoes I wore the entire trip, in and out of the water. Worth every penny!

              I bought a pair on closeout sale last summer and they have everywhere with me: Africa, Asia, Europe and as many US National Parks as I could fit into last year. They are great for hiking or long days on your feet and are stylish enough to wear with skirts or shorts. Sadly, they are being discontinued so get them while you can!!!

                These stay on even when running around, and they are much easier to put on, take off, and wear than my double-strap Chacos. I even wear them around the house.

                These are definitely the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. I have worn a pair of Hip Thongs in all but the coldest weather virtually every day for the past couple of years for a wide variety of outdoor actiuvities as well as for everyday wear and they have been wonderful! Excellent quality and you just can't wear them out. Buy these shoes!
