Loosen Chaco Sandals

1
Determine which type of Chaco sandals you are wearing to know which strap to adjust 1st for both loosening and tightening. Chaco's Z1 type shoe is a sandal with straps across your toes and up near your ankles. The Z2 sandals are similar but have an additional loop of strap around the big toe. Chaco flips do not have straps, just a thong between your big toe and the rest of your foot and do not need to be adjusted.
