FINAL DAYS: 5 free pairs of Chacos; 5 different ways to win!

Category: Announcements, Chaco Sandals, Sales & Promotions

August 23, 2011 By Jeff Bartlett

You like free stuff, right?

More specifically, do you like Chaco sandals? Do you want to win a pair for free?

OK, good, I thought so. I have good news: we’re giving away five free pairs of Chaco sandals or Chaco shoes in our August home page contest. Well, actually, we’ve been running the contest all month on a variety of channels, but we’ve been withholding the last piece of the puzzle until now.

Here are the five ways to win:

  1. Like us on Facebook — wait, you haven’t already done this?? — and upload your best Chaco tan photo. Our favorite hideously-tanned feet will win a brand new pair of Chacos. Warning: the competition for this one appears to be fierce.
  2. Visit this page on our website and sign up for our newsletter. Make sure you check the “Chaco” box and tell us what city you’re from!
  3. Find us on LifeKraze and high five the post marked “Easiest contest ever.” Seriously, it’s that easy. We’ll choose a winner at the end of August.
  4. Tweet a link to the Chacos you’d like to win at Rock/Creek (shop here: https://www.rockcreek.com/chaco-sandals.rc) and mention us (@rockcreek). One winner will get their wish!

But wait, that’s only 4… right?

Exactly. Here is the 5th and final piece of the puzzle: post a comment below and tell us where you’ll take your Chacos if you win a pair. Piece of cake. We’ll pick one of you at the end of the month to win the last free pair of Chacos.

August is almost gone, but there’s still a week left for you to claim your Chacos. We’ll announce each of the 5 winners shortly after the end of this month… good luck!

    If I were to win a pair of Chacos I would take them everywhere! I love to be outdoors and all in God’s creation. I would wear them all over the beautiful campus of Jacksonville State University in Jacksonville, Al. I would tell everyone that life isn’t complete until you own a pair of Chacos. I would take them on mission trips while I would share the love of Christ to others. if I were to win a free pair of Chacos my heart would smile forever. I would never take my Chacos off!!!

    CHAAAACOOOOS. If I would have a pair of Chacos, they would take me around the states to discover my new home. Being more detailed – they would go a piece of the appalachian trail, they would go on a whitewater ride and they would accompany me every morning to work.

    I would love to take my new pair of Chacos on an adventure to Sunset Rock, atop Lookout Mt ( http://www.outdoorchattanooga.com/182.htm ). I’ve only explored the beginning of the trails and have climbed a bit with my college friends there. My new Chacos would push me to hike farther and inspire me to enjoy the beauty of the mountain more!

    When I had my Chacos, before they were stolen, I would hike the creeks and trails, wear them even in the winter, and danced contra in them. For a person who HATES to wear shoes, these were the next best thing to going barefoot. I noticed my foot injuries decreased significantly. πŸ™‚

    I would take my chacos to seneca rocks at the end of September and hopefully out to San Fran sooner than later.

    My chaco flip flops went on an interesting adventure recently… went kayaking down Harpeth River and lost one when a tree root ball flipped me (thanks caneo in the way). After returning to search for it… I was sitting on the bank of the river eating lunch and moping when a guy in a canoe came floating by holding it up. I ran into the river asap!! It was knocked loose from said tree by another person hitting it and flipping over. πŸ™‚

    I would wear them everywhere, literally. They are the kind of shoes you can own and do it all in with no hesitation. From, “Oh a waterfall, lets climb it! But my shoes will get wet… oh wait… I have Chacos on!” To, “What a wonderful morning, oh no i’m late for school and don’t have time to put on shoes and socks… oh wait… who needs those anyways? I have Chacos!! Off to school i go!”

    If I was to win a pair of Chacos, they would become a part of me. They would trek through the Shenandoah Valley. They would climb the Smoky Mountains. They would explore the Cumberland Gap. They would kayak down uncountable rivers. They would one day thru hike the Appalachian Trail. They would visit every National Park in the Country. They would spend the summers at camp sharing the love of Christ. They would take regular spur of the moment adventures. They would take me to the edge of the world and back. I promise you that they would have an exciting and adventure-filled life while giving me the most awesome tan lines ever!

    A pair of chacos would be ideal for any outdoor event, even if I don’t have any money do to anything I can just go down to the river with friends. I’ve struggled with family and financial problems the last couple of years, and I won’t be able to afford college let alone a pair of brand new chacos $50 and up. I’m sick of everyone saying, “Oh yea you don’t belong at this school or in this town because you’re too poor.” I don’t want a pair simply because I want to “fit in”, I want a pair for my feet to be more comfortable, and I have to admit stylish as well on my outdoor adventures.
