Chaco Introduces the All-New Comfort-First, Lightweight CushZ Sandal

ROCKFORD, Mich., Nov. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Chaco, the outdoor footwear brand born on the river and renowned for its performance sandals, today launched its latest sandal innovation engineered for lightweight comfort. The CushZ Sandal combines comfort, sustainability and lightweight performance for consumers to lighten up life – with the same iconic webbing and adjustability they know, love and expect.

Designed with a casual-use lifestyle in mind, the CushZ is made for light-wearing, stylish occasions. The sandal is perfect for dog walks, weekend unwinding, farmers markets or simply as a daily comfort provider – at 50% less weight than the Z/1 Classic, featuring an ultra-comfortable footbed and a padded mesh collar.

The CushZ is now available to purchase at chacos.com for $80. It is certified by the American Podiatric Medical Association.

"We've made it our mission to create footwear that is adaptable and made to last a lifetime, enabling Chaco Nation to channel their inner adventurer," said Chaco Senior Brand Director Jon Golub. "The CushZ embodies this spirit, offering unparalleled comfort, cushioning and sustainability for all of life's adventures. Once you slip this on, your feet will feel an instant relief and keep you comfortable all day long. Now, consumers have a lighter Chaco to bring along wherever life may take them."

The CushZ product benefits include:

• Half the weight of the classic Z/Sandal: The CushZ's featherlight build is a welcome respite for tired feet, ensuring ease of movement and a gentle touch
• Cushioned comfort: Its ultra-comfortable footbed feels like walking on clouds, providing all-day comfort and relief
• Instant relief: The padded mesh collar offers a super soft feel
• REPREVE® webbing: Crafted from 100% recycled Repreve materials made from recycled bottles, making it an eco-conscious choice for travelers and outdoor enthusiasts – the same webbing used on Chaco's Z/Sandal for quick-drying, water-capable, 360-degree adjustability for the perfect, secure fit

"We designed the CushZ to meet evolving consumer preferences as individuals are becoming more health-conscious, seeking shoes that provide proper support, cushioning and ergonomic designs to promote foot health and overall well-being. It's made for pure enjoyment as you lighten up life," said Golub.
