Townes Slide Sandal (Women)

I love the look of this sandal. It’s got a retro 70’s feel. Unfortunately, this is not a good representation of a Chaco sandal. I hope the designers go back to the drawing board with this sandal, since from all the reviews I read many people wanted this style to replace a sandal they wore in the past. First, the sandal’s sole is very heavy. Clunky. But, is comfortably form fitting. Second, the metal loops on the side of the uppers are terribly uncomfortable, and placed where they rubbed my small toe, and inner arch. I tried walking around the house on the loose settings which was falling off my foot. But, the metal continued to be an issue. In conclusion, I decided to return the sandal.

Less comfortable than any other Chacos I’ve owned. The top strap falls just below the mid foot, so they tend to slide more when I’m walking. They also squeak like nobody’s business. I’m going to try to really oil up the leather and grease the spots where the leather meets the sole in hopes of redeeming them.
