Chaco  Lowdown Sandals - Women's

I wanted to love these Chacos…but after exactly two days of normal walking the sole separated from the footbed! (See photos) Disappointed that these are made cheaply now, hopefully I’ll be able to return them to REI without a hassle. I wish this was still the quality brand I wore daily about 20 years ago.

I really wanted to like these but the weirdly the straps were not the same length on both of the sandals. The right sandal was perfect and fit well. The left sandal, for some reason, both the adjustable strap was shorter AND the front part of the sandal straps (which are not adjustable) were tighter so much that I had to squeeze my foot into it. I knew that if I used them for hiking, I would get blisters as it was too tight near the toes and the front straps are not adjustable at all. I was sad to return them because I really wanted them to work out.

first model of Chacos i've found to be be comfy for and wearable on my feet. i have high strong arches and am only comfy in zero drop no arch interference and these fit that. normally Chacos have too much heel to toe drop and arch "support" for me, but not these! i hope Chacos continues to offer a lower drop-lower arch support model.

Great sandals! I live coastal Florida, I wanted a sandal that could be good for lots of walking, florida weather and beach. These have so far been amazing for all that. They are light weight and comfy, my feet felt great after walking theme parks. Only downside is after walking on the beach the straps slip due to sand getting into the prongs, so I have to clean them pretty thoroughly after sand or walking in puddles.

I love these Chacos so much. They're lighter and sleeker than the normal Chacos (my "offroading Chacos"). I have worn these multiple times a week the last 4 years and they're holding up great. I've given them a bath with some soapy water and they've come out looking great as well. The rubber soles have held up well and the only reason I'd want new ones is if I wanted to replace the sun-bleached strap colors.

My favorite style of Chaco. Much more lightweight than the normal type and also fully adjustable. They can be a bit fidgety to adjust at first, especially the spots by the midfoot, but they are definitely adjustable.
