While the lugs on its outsole look unassuming, they helped us negotiate wet environments (think bogs and muddy hills) without slipping. Its plush sole unit, which includes the Luvseat footbed, adapted to the ruggedness of the trail without a hitch!Īnd before we forget: the Z/Cloud 2 has the grip to match its gait-correcting midsole.

Most pleasing about the sandal in this regard was how much cushioning underfoot we got out of it!Įqually benefiting about the Z/Cloud 2 is its support system. In fact, we hiked in it straight from the box and came away with highly pampered feet. The Z/Cloud 2 never demanded too much from us from a break-in period’s perspective. Ready your raging heart because there’s no better sandal for the gents than Chaco’s Z/Cloud 2! An apex predator on the trail, this piece dominates with cunning skill on all fronts.
