Lowdown Leather Slide - Women's

Wonderfully comfortable, better than other sandals in similar style, and certainly more durable. Love that they have leather sides.

Love them!

Chapco’s sandals

Super comfortable sandals, I can wear them all day without any problems with my feet of the sandals.

Not comfortable for me

I was hoping to receive a sturdier version of the Chillo slide but the foot bed is more narrow and not as cushioned. I need a good arch to prevent plantar fascitis and that was also not the right fit. I gave a wide toe box and wear a size 8 or 8.5 for reference. I ordered an 8.

House shoes only

Tried the Lowdown sandals in person and it was instantly literally the comfiest sole I had ever tried. Much more comfy than the traditional Chaco Zs (I have 2 pairs of Zs, one Cloud sole, and they are great support for walking and river activities, but not the best for standing). So I decided to get this pair of Lowdown slides as house shoes for hanging around my house. The leather strap is cute and gives a Birkenstocks vibe but a little classier, less clunky, and much more comfortable sole, plus washable, all things which Birks are not. They are perfect house shoes; HOWEVER, they do not work for walking out and about. They slide off and do not tighten effectively no matter how you adjust them. This results in walking with the "toe grip" which is what happens when you wear flip flops and pediatrists say that's bad for your feet. I will be looking into some Lowdown Sandals with the back strap for casual wear. Wish the regular Lowdown sandals were a little less sporty looking.

More Durable

I originally had bought some slides last year that held up well but the foam holding the strap split. I noticed the design changes and decided to upgrade to the leather slides and am very happy with their comfort and durability. They also take up less space in my luggage. Upgrades all around!

Very very narrow

These are very narrow. They seemed very hard also.

eva vs leather

very comfy and supportive, a bit more rugged than the eva ones..

Leather slides

Bigger than the rubber slides and not as comfy. The rubber ones broke on me twice so I went with leather. Doesn’t fit my foot right like the rubber ones did.

Comfy and cute

Nice sandal. Easy to wear and comfortable. Could be cuter but they work
