The cushion felt like stepping on mushrooms out the box, while the Z/1 Pro were stiffer than a board. The Chaco Z/Cloud X2 were comfortable right off the bat. This time, it was with a strappier pair that included the toe loop I thought they were cuter. Intrigued about the Z/Cloud, I decided to take the plunge. I didn’t want to go through the trouble of breaking another pair in. When it came time to try out the Z/Cloud, I was hesitant. I thought Chacos are supposed to be comfortable? I stuck it out nonetheless until I discovered that Chaco bliss. The straps cut into my feet and gave me blisters. They were awesome, but they were painful. The Z/Cloud X2 are not my first trip to the Chaco rodeo. Double strapped polyester jacquard webbing wraps around the foot and is fully adjustable for a customized fit. Sticky as heck for scrambling on wet surfaces, the outsole also uses 25% recycled rubber to leave an eco friendly footprint.Įach piece of footwear in the Chaco line is the LUVSEAT footbed which provides arch support and is certified by the American Podiatric Medical Association. The outsole is constructed from Chacogrip, a proprietary compound developed specifically for Chaco. The polyurethane (PU) layer is ultra soft, doesn’t wear through or compress for a footbed that lasts you forever. Think of the Z/Cloud as mattress topper, except built in for your shoe.
For Spring 2016, Chaco updated the footbed with their proprietary Z/Cloud and made their sandals that much better. Rugged enough for the trails, but chic enough to rock on city streets, these shoes do it all in temperate environments. Outdoorists wear their sandal lines like a badge of honor. Chacos are the king of the rafting and guide world.
