I used to wear Chacos all summer for a handful of years now, but since I’ve been wearing Altras and Splays, I’ve become less comfortable in Chacos. The footbed of a Chaco at least appears as though it was intended to be anatomically shaped and that’s why I originally got them, but the strap placement just squeezes the pinky toe inward and my toes don’t feel like they can splay - at least for my size 11 Z/Clouds when I typically wear size 11.5 shoes. They already have a heel drop, arch support, and heavy sole, so now I just don’t see any redeeming qualities in them as far as promoting natural foot movement. Curious what everyone else thinks
