I am very pleased to write about these shoes. I bought a pair recently and from the second I got them out of the package, they have been the absolutely most comfortable pair of casual shoes I have ever owned. They feel like a slipper. They are true to size. They are soft, flexible, stylish and oh so comfy. My only concern about these shoes is the curved sole and the unprotected part of the leather that touches the ground; I am afraid that they will soak up water when it rains. I just plan to be careful with very rainy weather. I still absolutely love these shoes. And of course, Zappos is wonderful and enables one to try several pairs of shoes with no hassle returns or extra expenses. I highly recommend these shoes.

After shopping around, I decided to try OluKai Ohana sandals based on others reviews. They are quite comfortable and I own a half-dozen other sandals to compare them with. I must admit I go to them most of the time and rotate them with my Chaco sandals. I have other sandals that are lightweights compared to these in regards to comfort, durability and workmanship. Both the OluKai and the Chaco sandals seem to run a size smaller, so order the next larger size for a correct fit the first time.

These were great for about six months, then it seemed to me that the fit had grown loose. I looked at the sandals carefully and noticed that the straps have pulled away from the side of the foot bed, apparently the glue doesn't hold. A reviewer at REI's web site noticed the same problem. What a shame. Great flip-flops now slop-flops.

The Kamuelas are a great shoe. I have had them for about a month now and can not get them off of me feet. The are very comfortable and are good for any occasion. They take no time to break in. Very soft leather. I would recommend these to anyone.

I've owned 4 pairs of OluKai and this was the worst fitting style I've owned. The footbed is already extremely slick and I find my foot sliding out. Arch support is not comparable to other styles they offer. Very disappointed as it's a great brand.

Well made with attention to detail. Not the best sandal for walking long distances; Merrells are better. Good for all other needs.

I love these sandals! They are nice to walk in and tighter than most flip flops; since I have thin feet they fit me really good, which is hard to find in sandals. The size seems to run small and there wasn't much difference in the 7 to the 8. I kept the size 8, which would usually be too big for me. Great shoes, well made and very comfy!

This is my first pair of slippers by OluKai, and since I had heard they were a Hawaiian company I wanted to support the local guys! Usually a size 8 1/2, I found the 9 too big so went with the 8 which fits fine (only whole sizes available). While the foot bed is extremely comfortable, I ended up with a sore on the top of one foot after wearing them the first time. For the very high price of these shoes (considering they are just slippers) I would not have expected that to happen. I will stick with Chacos, put them on and you are ready to go from the first wear.

I liked these flip flops so much, I bought two pair. Very comfortable and sturdy and they do not slide on slippery surfaces. I am very happy with these and have never found a more comfortable shoe of this type. A+.

Overall:

Recently purchased the OluKai Ohana Leather sandal. I wanted a "nicer" pair of leather sandals for less casual occasions. Overall, I've found all OluKai sandals are of excellent quality. The Ohana Leather is no different. The full grain conditioned leather is about as good as it gets. The leather straps are thick, but supple enough where you don't have to break them in. The Ohana Leather felt true to size. The contoured sole fits like a glove and provides great foot/arch support. The nylon toe webbing eliminates any need for break in. The nice thing is that the sandal accommodates extra wide feet nicely. The Ohana Leather is slightly heavier than most sandals (even other leather brands). A combination of the leather and the durable sole. The lug soles are great! They don't slip when walking on wet surfaces. At this price, it is definitely more pricey than almost anything out there (in the same category), but I think it's well worth it. I would definitely recommend the OluKai Ohana Leather sandal to anyone.

These are the most fabulous flip flops I've ever worn! I have very high arches and live in flip flops. However, the standard flip flop was starting to hurt my feet. My husband tried this brand and recommended it to me, and I love it! I now have 3 pairs. Not only are they comfortable, they provide great arch support and are cute to boot! Love them! Actually wish I could find a closed toe shoe that was comparable now that it is getting cold. Highly recommend!

Overall:

I bought these for my very picky husband because of the cool slide-in heel crushing feature. He normally wears flip flops through the Winter with socks. These seemed like a better, more practical idea. He loves them. They took one or two wearings to break in, but now they haven't been off his feet! They were true to size, just pretty much a perfect shoe for the purpose.

Buy these, they are the most comfortable flip flops I have ever owned. Did not want to spend this much for these, but we live in great climate, all year long flip flops. I read reviews with particular attention to warm weather reviews like Hawaii, Texas, AZ, etc. Thank you to all for great advice, size up one size, better than Reefs, get what you pay for, etc.

Overall:

Feet down the best pair of sandals I've purchased. Others are correct that you should purchase a ½ size larger than normal. I took that advice and I'm glad I did. They are even comfortable on moderate-long walks. I've owned other sandals where moderate-long walks were out of the question as far as comfort goes but the Hiapo's are up for the challenge. The glue where the strap meets the side has worn a little over the last couple of months but the straps are also stitched to the side so I'm not too worried about it.

Overall:

My foot is an extra wide 14. These shoes were plenty wide enough and the length was perfect. My only problem was the arch. I\'m a flat footer and the arch was killing me. If you like a good arch in your sandle you will love these. They were more cushy than I anticipated too, not like walking on cushy rubber but surprising for leather. The top of my foot was slightly agitated by the edge of the strap toe side. Likely would go away after break in.......?

Overall:

I typically do not wear sandals because I have had a couple foot injuries and require substantial arch support. I knew that I would need to wear some, however, on a recent beach trip in SE Asia. I opted for the Hiapos based on the fantastic reviews, and I could not have been more pleased. I typically wear a 12 wide, so I ordered both the 12 medium and the 13 medium. The 12s were a little snug and a little short, so I\'d say they run true to size for width and maybe a half size small for length.

Reviewer: Dave from Hawaii

Overall:

Everyone knows that in Hawaii the only shoes we wear are slippers. Having two other pairs of OluKai I thought I would try the Lomi model. Just like the other pairs these are great, comfortable right out of the box. Since I spend a lot of time around and in the water these are terrific as your feet don't slip around yet the 'bumps' are not at all uncomfortable. I raved about OluKai slippers so much that my wife decided to try them and now she too is a convert. And of course the service from Zappos is outstanding. Easy to find what you want and order online and very speedy delivery. I have heard that returns are also a breeze but since I have never had to return anything I will have to take them at their word.
