The other day I was walking on campus in the pouring rain. In my tennis shoes. I thought to myself, "Chacos would be great right now." If you still need an excuse to wear Chacos (besides their sheer greatness) I hope this helps.
You have to walk over 1/2 mile to get to class.
Because you have to walk 2 steps to class.
You don't have time to tie your tennis shoes.
It's beautiful and sunny outside.
Because the Chaco tan is saweeeet.
They scream SRAT.
Or "I'm adventurous."
Or "camp counselor."
It's raining.
They offer great support.
You become become part of the 99 percent of other students wearing Chacos.
Show off your pedicure.
You're wearing your standard uniform of Nike shorts and a t-shirt.
You aren't wearing Nike shorts and a t-shirt and thus need to "casualize" your outfit.
They match everything.
But mostly because they don't completely match anything.
You can customize them!
Babies wear 'em.
Old folks wear 'em.
Start a new trend and wear them to formal.
Secretly everyone will be jealous by the end of the night.
It gives guys an excuse to wear sandals.
It probably won't be socially acceptable to wear them to your "grown-up" job one day, so might as well take advantage of it now.
When people compliment you on them, it's basically the best thing ever.
Because who doesn't want a Chaco tan during recruitment?!
You spilled Dr. Pepper on your tennis shoes.
Your sandals make your feet cramp after walking for like two minutes.
You can bike in them.
You can fish.
You can walk in the lake.
You can eat ice cream in them.
Chacos + Eno = Great day.
They have adjustable straps!!!
Chacos = granola.
All the comfort of a tennis shoe, but... (wait for it) it's a sandal.
You saw a cute guy on campus wearing Chacos and if you wear yours too it basically makes y'all soul mates.
They're comfy.
There's a 100 percent chance of rain, but you live in Texas and that could actually mean 100 percent sunshine and need to be prepared for anything.
Feeling short? They add like a whole extra inch to your height!
Feeling tall? Well they definitely aren't high heels.
When you put on your Chacos first thing, life just feels right.
They fit in a suitcase.
They're washable. PTL.
You're going hiking.
You're going to the mall.
You wish you were going to the mall but you're actually going to the library.
You might just get proposed to.
They serve as the ultimate bug killer.
Recruitment workshops = bouncing and clapping. Enough said.
Make memories (not blisters) on your wedding day. (But I might actually do this for my reception...)
