Updates to Chaco ZX/2 Classic

  • The Chaco ZX/2 Classic fuses a simple and timeless design with the necessary components for optimum on-trail performance. Its Luvseat footbed bolsters its level of cushioning.
  • Some Chaco-exclusive technologies are wedged between the feet and the ground. The polyurethane midsole offers comfort and arch support while the ChacoGrip outsole provides adequate surface traction.

Chaco ZX/2 Classic size and fit

Chaco ZX/2 Classic is a relatively true-to-size, multi-sport sandal made for male and female hikers. It comes in full sizes. Both versions come in regular and wide widths. The adjustable straps allow for a precise lockdown. It comes with heel risers to accommodate a range of foot volumes.

Outsole

Thanks to the ChacoGrip rubber outsole of the ZX/2 Classic, wearers are promised slip and skid resistance. This non-marking unit is engineered with grooves and treads so hikers can get multi-directional surface traction when tackling loose soil or soft ground. Both the men and women's versions come with 3.0 mm lug depth.

Midsole

The Chaco ZX/2 Classic is equipped with the proprietary dual-density midsole called Luvseat. This podiatrist-certified technology lessens shock during impact and provides stability when walking over rugged parts of the trail. This long-wearing polyurethane midsole is capable of delivering comfort without giving in easily to weight and stress.

Upper

ZX/2 Classic’s upper is made mainly of polyester jacquard webbing. Its adjustable straps wrap around the foot and are linked within the midsole. A toe loop also adds security. Its heel risers are made of high-tensile webbing. A ladder lock buckle is made of synthetic material.
