Why We Like The Chaco Rapid Pro Sandal
Chaco was founded by a raft guide and has made sandals that cater to river lovers for over three decades. To celebrate the strides this company has made, the Rapid Pro Sandal was made. This paddling essential was created with input from raft guides to make our favorite slingback sandals perform even better as we navigate rapids. The jacquard webbing, signature in all of Chaco's sport sandals, is reinforced with 30% more nylon to increase durability. A smaller buckle replaces the original to lessen pressure on the foot when wedging it into the raft. But the true hero of this sandal is the updated sole—Vibram MegaGrip delivers the stickiness necessary to stay stable in the wet rafting environment, and the unique lug design moves water away and improves grip in critical zones.

Here's what customers have to say
The sandals are generally well-received, with many praising their comfort, durability, and excellent grip on various terrains, including wet and slippery surfaces. Customers love the soles, which provide extra traction and support. However, some have experienced issues with the newer models, such as the straps being too long, the soles coming off, and the sandals feeling stiffer and less comfortable compared to previous versions. A few also noted the newer models seem narrower. Overall, the sandals are considered a great, versatile option for outdoor activities, with the soles being a standout feature.

Best sandals active or leisurely use
I always love my Chaco's and this pair is no different. Can also feel the grip of the soles on this pair. My only complaint is the heal strap ends up being to long and I have to tuck it in.

Long straps
Very comfortable but the adjusting strap is too long and hangs over the shoe a bit.

Chaco's convert
First-timer wearing Chaco's. Needed good sandals for a camping/canoe trip - these are exactly right. Dialed in my fit and found these sturdy soles comfortable while driving 12 hours to northern Minnesota. Arch support is similar to a hiking boot. Rocky, slippery, and mucky lake bottoms, uneven trails - no problem. Dry time on the straps wasn't bad and wearing while wet didn't cause rubbing/chafing either. I misplaced these for a half day and was beside myself - true confirmation. I'm in!

Need to offer more wide options.
Too narrow, I have flat feet and this pair was way too narrow. Chacos need to offer more wide option for variety of styles.

I miss the old Chacos.
I wish Chaco sandals were made like they used to make them. These are as close to the old ones as I have been able to get, but the footbed is too soft and squishy which makes my legs tired. I still have 2 pares of Chacos from 20 years ago and they are better. I love the old ones so much but they are finally falling apart too much to fix. When I first put these on I thought they were the same, but after wearing them I had some hip pain from an old injury. I can wear my old Chacos for days with no problems. These are atractive though and I will keep trying to wear them because I need them for the rivers and everyday life in Colorado.

New go to summer adventure sandals
Overall they are a great, durable and supportive do-it-all sandal with a grippy sole. The sandals fit true to size, but the adjustment strap is very long if you have narrow feet.

Great for water adventures!
Long-time wearer, first-time reviewer ….These Chacos have become my go-to for any water activity. The straps dry faster than classic straps, and the Vibram soles give extra traction in rivers. I wish Chaco made more styles with these features- they are game changers!

Not as great as I would have hoped
I bought these hoping they would hold up longer than the other chacos I have been buying. I am a full time farmer and wear chacos from spring till fall. Unfortunately they didn't last as long as the normal chacos the straps started fraying after just 2 months.
