Chaco Launches Mermaid-Inspired Z/1 Collaboration With Fishwife

(MENAFN- PR Newswire) Given Chaco's commitment to sustainability, through their manufacturing webbing with recycled plastic bottles and their ReChaco repair program, working with Fishwife was a logical move. The tinned seafood brand sources from healthy fisheries and certified sustainable aquaculture farms.

"We loved the creative spirit that Fishwife champions, which is something that we also prioritize at Chaco," says Kelsey Dunneback, Chaco Brand Manager. "We're excited for people to make a statement in these whimsically designed sandals, whether they are adventuring locally or afar."

Drawing inspiration from Fishwife's signature bold and vibrant color palette, seen throughout its distinctive packaging, Chaco created a fresh and relevant color-blocked design. The sandal is infused with a playful touch of personality, with a mermaid badge and the heel strap showcasing iconic Fishwife elements that add a funky, yet refined twist to the overall aesthetic.

"Since launching in 2020, we've been committed to bringing sustainability to the aquaculture space while championing individuality," says Becca Millstein, CEO and co-founder of Fishwife. "When we were approached by Chaco, we felt that it was a seamless partnership that allows Fishwife to further enter the lives of modern day water and fish lovers on their daily journeys."

This exclusive style will be available for purchase on Chaco's website, , and the Fishwife site, on Thursday, May 8, 2025.
