Chaco's proprietary outsole
The Z/Cloud X2 has a ChacoGrip outsole which balances traction and durability. This rubber material is non-marking and has a 3 mm lug depth for a grippy ride. Its composition provides optimal performance on wet and dry surfaces.
Contoured midsole
The proprietary midsole of Chaco, the LUVSEAT, powers the Z/Cloud X2. It follows the contours of the wearer’s foot for optimal comfort. It also provides a decent amount of arch support that stabilizes the user under various conditions. Likewise, the heel cup absorbs pressure and controls pronation. With a polyurethane (PU) compound, this multi-sport sandal is durable and wear-resistant.
Additionally, it is equipped with the Cloud technology for cushioning. Antimicrobial treatment controls odor and maintains the sandals’ freshness.
Strappy Upper
The upper of the Z/Cloud X2 uses a double-strapped, durable, and abrasion-resistant material—the polyester jacquard webbing. Its woven construction maintains long-lasting surface integrity after undergoing a stringent process in a machine. The toe loop allows a steadier step while an injection-molded ladder lock buckle is used to secure the foot in place.
