text: Balked a little at the price, but when I was ready to buy new black flip flops and came across these, it just took the positive reviews and Chaco reputation to convince me. I agree with one of the other reviewers, in that the &#34;wide&#34; width is only that the straps are longer. The footbed doesn't seem especially wide. But, I do have a wide foot, and these fit perfectly. The arch support is great. They seem like they'll last several years, so well worth the price.
