I have owned at least one pair of Chacos for the last 8 years or so, I have a pair of Z/1 and Z/2--both have been restrapped and resoled by Chaco in Colorado and come back like a brand new shoe. I wanted something a little different with no backstrap, my boyfriend has a pair of Hipthongs (the old style) and they looked so comfortable. I ordered the Zongs because I didn't like how they had changed the style of the Hipthong to look more like a flipflop. The Zongs were my first pair of Chacos not made in Colorado but in China...and I'm seriously contemplating sending them back because I'm so disappointed and I haven't even walked in them much. The straps are more narrow than my Z/1 & Z/2s and they are also shorter, which doesn't give much room for adjusting. The Zongs don't have the Vibram sole which I prefer. It is hard to get a nice fit after playing with the straps for awhile. I like to wear my Chacos a little loose while I'm breaking them in and its hard to get the Zongs to stay loose all over. I might return the Zongs and just wait for my Z/2s to come back from being revived in Colorado.
