Such a cute sandal, but the toe strap is unbearable. No matter how much adjusting I do, it tightens and turns my big toes purple when I walk. They'll have to go back... sadly.

Worth every penny! These sandals are so comfortable. It's a little hard to pick sizes being they don't offer 1/2 sizes (I normally wear an 8 ½). The 8s are a little on the small side, but 9 was floppy and wide near heel/toes.

Good choice - This is my first pair of Chacos, but it will not be my last! I have narrow flat feet and these sandals feel great. Having the adjustable bands really makes for a personal fit. The only negative I would say about them is that I have a little trouble keeping the bands exactly where I want them. It seems like the band around my toe tends to tighten up every so often and I have to re-adjust, but that is a small price to pay for the arch support all-day comfort of these shoes.

Comfortable sandal - I liked my first pair so much that I ordered a second pair. I especially like the strap system - fully adjustable for just the right fit. It also has more arch support than your usual sandal.

I love the product, its durability, good arch support (especially for a sandal), and comfort even for a long day. I tried a man's 9 due to color choices rather than a women's 11 and found it not workable for my arch and width (women's medium).

Comfy shoe - I always love my chaco's. Since this style comes in whole sizes only, if you are between sizes order the size up. I am a true 9.5 and the 9 was very iffy so I replaced it with the 10 and am much happier.

AMAZING! This sandal is awesome. I have worn it every day since I got it. I loooove the green color (Brasilia) and the upgraded thinner straps of the newer models feel great! I have worn many, many pair of Chacos and I am NEVER disappointed. However, this pair fit like a glove from the very first time I wore it--- zero breaking in needed.

Chaco Zong Illusion - I have a few other pair of Chaco zongs and wear them all the time. I needed a more neutral color, so I ordered the Illusions. They're extremely comfortable with great support, and they look cute, too! At first the straps kept tightening, so I washed them. That should help.

Super comfortable - can't figure out the straps - I'm a proud owner of the Chaco flips and after 5 years they aren't showing any signs of wear or deterioration. Previously I owned Teva and Reef flips and would go through a 4 pair a year. So I decided to mix it up and try these Zongs, mostly because they look so dang cool and I thought I could wear them to work. Chacos seem to have exceptionally good arch support (these Zongs included). I'm the kind of foot with really high arches that cannot go barefoot without extreme pain. These Zongs feel like barefoot - between them and the Flips, I'll never wear anything else! I find the footbed of Chacos to be much firmer than other sandals, but the support is great and the rubber eventually molds to every contour of your foot. They will end up fitting like a glove. My only issue (and I almost returned them because of this) is the straps. I spent some time adjusting the strap (despite the look, it really is all one strap that winds underneath the footbed through the rubber sole) and thought I had it right. When I started walking, the strap tightened in some places due to more pressure and became loosened in others. I'm still experimenting, but am happy overall.

I read a lot of the reviews other buyers had about this shoe before buying and can understand some of their comments now that I own a pair. The straps do take some adjusting the first few days, but after you find your fit, these are SUCH comfortable shoes and are so cute! After wearing flip flops all summer long, I had to find a more supportive shoe due to back pain. These completely fit the bill (and helped my back) and I will definitely be buying another pair of Chacos! Plus, the service by Zappos was far MORE than I expected! Thanks Zappos!

After wearing the Chacos for 10 minutes I could not get comfortable. I tried to adjust the straps but after ten to twenty steps my big toe turned purple and was getting strangled. I am not alone and it seems to be very common for the latest design. I'm taking them back.

So far not so good - I live in New York City but am a mountain girl at heart. I was very excited to get these shoes for a Colorado trip. I am used to wearing Tevas so maybe I'm not doing it right but I can't get these shoes to work on my feet. Hopefully they will settle in to fit my foot but right now they squeeze my feet out the back and won't stay in place. Sadly I wish I could send them back. They just don't work for walking long distances.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE - I am a Chaco lover and I really like the Chaco Zongs. They are always so comfortable and really easy to put on. The size is perfect and totally comparable to what I wear (8 normally, 8 in Chaco). I really like that they fit perfect to my feet because of the straps mobility and there are clear instructions on how the straps move on the box. I can tell when I wear other shoes that I just don't get the arch support that Chaco provides. The other thing that was amazing that wasn't related to Chaco, but helped enormously was Zappos.com. I am wearing my Zong sandals in my wedding and I decided last minute on the color that I wanted to buy. I bought my Chacos online on a Monday around lunch time and they came to me on TUESDAY mid afternoon. I couldn't believe my eyes! I thought that they would come just in the nick-of-time, but they came the next day! That was so AMAZING! Also, Chacos are very durable and I have worn them hiking, river tubing, longboarding, and just normal everyday wear and I think my Chacos will start to outlast me. They still look brand new and are very easy clean up. Thanks Chaco and Zappos.com.

This sandal stays put on your foot! This sandal fulfilled the criteria I wanted in a casual sandal. I don't like the hassle of a back strap. Its a rugged sandal I could wear while wading in rivers during camping and its a stylish-looking sandal with an option of bright colors. To adjust the straps to accommodate the big toe and width was fairly easy (after adjusting for my narrow foot, the end of the strap hung down, so I had to knot the end to avoid hanging on the ground). Would have been more attractive if the sandal's straps had been wider.

The Chaco Zong is a wonderful sandal. I have never been able to wear any type of shoe other than a tennis shoe because I wear custom orthotics. I have plantar fasciitis and can wear the Chacos with no pain. The high arch that the Chaco has helps support my foot all day.

Chacos Beat My Birkenstocks! I have been an avid Birkenstock wearer for about ten years and recently I found Chacos. Well, after walking around the store, I bought two pairs and I've never looked back! They are fabulous sandals that work well hiking through the woods and hiking through the urban jungle. I walk everywhere as I am a student and I live downtown, so I need shoes that will hold up well and have excellent arch support. If you get these, don't be discouraged; it might take a week to break them in and yes, I had a small blister from one of the straps, but get them wet and keep walking! The straps will loosen and they will become your best friends in no time!

Glad to Own - Purchased them about 1 month ago, have worn them several times. The sole of the shoe is firm & supportive. So, if you are looking for a more flexible sandal that forms to your foot, keep looking. It was a little difficult to get the straps right so that my big toe was comfortable. I was looking for something I could go walking in & have some arch support - these have it. They're great!

Love my Zongs - I love the arch support and they are casual enough for jeans and shorts, also look great with skirts and dresses. Having a "low volume" foot, they adjust to my bony feet. In fact, I haven't found any other sandals I can wear since all the ones I've tried just don't adjust down to the thinness of my feet. So yeah, I love 'em.

Wash shoes if having problems!! I have these shoes and love them as well, but the straps do not stay the exact way you have them adjusted. When I asked a salesperson about this - they told me to wash the shoes. If that doesn't work wash them with 'simple green.' If that does not work Chaco's will take them back and fix them. I love the shoes, but have had a lot of trouble with them. That was great advice to me; otherwise I could hardly wear the shoes. So far - they are working out great after washing them. This might be a help to some other people out there!!!

Glad to Own - Purchased them about 1 month ago, have worn them several times. The sole of the shoe is firm & supportive. So, if you are looking for a more flexible sandal that forms to your foot, keep looking. It was a little difficult to get the straps right so that my big toe was comfortable. I was looking for something I could go walking in & have some arch support - these have it. They're great!

Love my Zongs - I love the arch support and they are casual enough for jeans and shorts, also look great with skirts and dresses. Having a "low volume" foot, they adjust to my bony feet. In fact, I haven't found any other sandals I can wear since all the ones I've tried just don't adjust down to the thinness of my feet. So yeah, I love 'em.

Wash shoes if having problems!! I have these shoes and love them as well, but the straps do not stay the exact way you have them adjusted. When I asked a salesperson about this - they told me to wash the shoes. If that doesn't work wash them with 'simple green.' If that does not work Chaco's will take them back and fix them. I love the shoes, but have had a lot of trouble with them. That was great advice to me; otherwise I could hardly wear the shoes. So far - they are working out great after washing them. This might be a help to some other people out there!!!
