I loved the minimalist style and pretty purple color of these sandals. Nice rubber sole and grippy bottom. The leather was nice and soft. They were on the wide side, which is good, but the high arch caused the strap and toe loop to be too tight and uncomfortable on my rather flat feet. I could feel it squeezing my big toe with every step. Beautiful sandal, just not a good fit for me.

The reviews are not kidding about the arch support! I don't think I've ever put on a more supporting shoe. I typically buy size 9, my foot is more of a 8.75, but with these I do feel like I could have worn an 8. The 9 isn't too big for me, but if you're a true half size, I'd size down.

I love these sandals, but they are quite wide and have a very high arch support, which I don't need, and the combination of the width and the arch shape created too much pressure behind my big toe joint on both feet. I was very disappointed because they are a great shoe - but just don't fit my foot properly. If you have a wider foot and need arch support, these would be great for you! As always, Zappos does a great job with customer service and returns.

This is a tough one. The actual foot pad was great! Very comfortable, great arch support, and cushioning. ALL of the straps were the issue. The one over the big toe was so small I could barely get my toe into it. The cross strap was way too tight, and the ankle strap was positioned to high up on my ankle for comfort. The straps are quite thick, sturdy, wear well and would last a long time if the fit was right. I loved the look, just with the straps fit better.

Very pleased with these! I was desperate to find a cute sandal that I could wear that doesn’t cause my plantar fasciitis to drive me crazy all day. These are perfect. However getting used to that much arch support does take a little time.

I really wanted to love these; but they were awkwardly tight around front strap. I have many pair of Chaco’s that I bought years ago and was really hoping to replace those. Had to return.

True to size, cute, AND comfy! I adore my Chaco Z Clouds and have been seeking a comfortable sandal that looks more dressed up. This absolutely fits the bill! I agree with other reviewers that mention the insane arch support on these babies. If you have flat feet, I can see how these would not work for you. I have an average arch and average/narrower feet so they feel fine to me. Photo is attached! (Excuse the toe trauma from a brutal mountain hike)
I can't yet vouch for how these sandals fare after a long walk. So far they have only been worn around the house (#workfromhomelife), but I am confident they'll feel as comfy as the Z Clouds.

I have bunions. This Chaco sandals are for women with pretty feet not for me . It is not easy to find sandals that cover the bunions . Born used to have some styles perfect for feet with bunions , but not anymore .

As mentioned, these have thick arch support. I have regular arches, and I wouldn’t want to stand on these for hours, but I WOULD want to walk on them for hours. They’re really comfortable and don’t feel plastic-y. I’ve been wearing them to my business casual workplace and loving it.

These shoes are comfy *and* stylish. The toe loop is comfortable, does not chafe, and adds style points. The leather lining is a must for walking in the heat and also covers the side of the footbed, which dresses up the shoe. The arch support is excellent for high arches.
I wish they offered this style with a sling option or a Velcro closure instead of a buckle. Though they are easy to slip off without unbuckling, it takes some effort to get back on. I'm still shopping for an comfy easy-off, easy-on shoe for kicking around the house. When I find one, these Chaco Tulips will be more for going out.

Absolutely loved these - Chacos soles REALLY help my plantar fasciitis. I’ve ordered and received these in black, as well… I’m all set.

This is my 2nd pair of Tulip style - first the brown and now the black. The Chacos sole works so well for my plantar fasciitis. I followed advice of some other reviews and ordered 1/2 size down — perfect! I’d love a light beige/ cream color pair.

I was so thrilled to find cute sandals that really do help my plantar fasciitis. After reading a few reviews that said they ran a bit large, I ordered down a half size instead of up because I’m a true half size. They’re perfect. I had tried two styles in different sizes of Birkenstocks but was disappointed that they really didn’t help my feet. I’ve ordered and received the black pair of Chacos Tulip, as well. Wonderful purchase.

I purchased these and some Chaco Wayfarer Loop sandals. Both were very comfortable. The Wayfarer Loop had a leather food bed and had one more support strap than the Tulip. I ultimately went with the Tulip because I decided the plastic would better suit my needs than the leather.

I was skeptical about these sandals when I ordered them. I have a wide foot and I need good arch support. I trusted Zappos return policy and knew that it would allow me to return them if they didn’t work. These sandals are amazing. They are comfortable and supportive. I could walk all day in these if I wanted and not have an issue. They are plenty wide and I don’t have any “spillage” over the side. I plan to buy them in black as well & then I should be set for summer! (I am answering they are true to width, but only because they aren’t too wide for me).

I've worn these for about a week, and really like them so far. They are comfortable and appear to be high quality. I also appreciate that the branding on this model of Chacos isn't super obvious. (I don't like flashy branding!). I look forward to having these for many years.

Let me start by saying that I am a very picky shoe shopper. When I first put on these shoes, the arch felt like it was in the wrong spot and the heel is deep which made it feel like I was leaning backwards; however, I love the high arch support, but these shoes feel weird every time I put them on, BUT it disappears after wearing them for a few minutes. They really are very comfortable and super cute to boot.

Straps on arch/toe are not adjustable and don’t have any give. They aren’t consistently sewn, so you have to get lucky with a good pair - I couldn’t even get my foot into one of the shoes on my first order! Luckily, I was able to find a pair in both colors I’d wanted that worked in the end.

I purchased a size 6 (because my 10 year old chacos are a 6) and it is a perfect fit. Great arch support as I have high arches, cute and comfy. Worked on my feet all day in these and felt like I do when wearing supportive tennis shoes, which I love. Definitely recommend these.
