Product Description

Built for rugged wear in canyons, rivers, or the concrete jungle, the Chaco Z/1 sandal offers supportive comfort no matter where your adventure takes you. One of Chaco's core focuses is on proper biomechanics, manifested in their BioCentric footbed contour that encourages the foot to assume a neutral position. This position aligns the bones to most efficiently propel the body forward, not only a source of good foot health but a healthy base for proper ankle, knee, and back movement throughout the stride. This BioCentric footbed contour carries the seal of acceptance by the American Podiatric Medical Association. The Chaco Z/1 women's sandal is also noted for its innovative pull through strap assembly that connects to a single buckle for quick and simple adjustment. This innovative strap system has a low profile look, avoiding the bulk and stiffness of overlapping Velcro. Another feature that sets the Chaco Z/1 sandal apart is the durable Vibram Unaweep sole, designed for positive traction over mixed terrain with lug pattern and spacing for a self-cleaning effect.

Customer Reviews

Chaco's & Amazon - Wow - awesome duo
2nd year of training for the Breast Cancer 3-Day - 2nd year of feet issues. 1st year of RESOLUTIONS - all because of Chaco's Sandals. This is my 4th pair this year - all different colors - some larger some shorter this pair "wide" - but ALL far better for my feet than any athletic shoe, sports shoe, running shoe, walking shoe I've tried in my life. Spent HUNDREDS of dollars in shoes last year (6 pairs) trying to find something that would work with my high insteps, high left arch, .collapsing right arch and neuropathy... numb toes - until they "awaken" and feel like they need to be surgically removed to alleviate the pain...(yes, I'm whining)

The Chaco's Z/1 UWP Sandals have changed my life - forever. Not only in my hundreds of miles in training for the 60 miles in 3 days - these sandals have improved my posture & in doing to have alleviated all lower back pain - and can walk the 18 / 15 mile back to backs with no foot pain ...just tired butt muscles... but my feet are so very happy...

Can you tell I'm extremely pleased?

Amazon, has provided a constant resource for dependable online purchasing. Delivery has been impeccable.

I can't rave enough about the professional service and love the vast offerings...

Very cool.

Thanks!

Chaco Women's Z/1 UWP Sandal
This is the most wonderful sandal. It is especially great for walking. I walked around Disneyland every day for a whole week in these and never experienced any backache or foot problems. Highly recommended.

Z/1 Sandals are great!
I have been wearing these sandals nearly every day since I received them. They are extremely comfortable, and when they get dirty I can just chuck them in the wash.
