Very comfortable and some support. Great quality and feel. Between the toes is very comfortable as well.

Beautiful product and brand. One spot on the top of my foot was sore for the first week, but now is broken in and I love them. For me, the sizes ran small and I had to exchange an 11 for a 12. Nice substaintial sole for traction. I am a bit afraid to get the leather wet, but for fancy casual, these are the best.

The most awesome sandal ever. I can, and do wear these all the time since they arrived. Most thong type sandals take time to break in and feel right. Not these! Even between the toes wear the thong goes. First day felt like day 2000. Great sandal. Expensive but worth every penny. Don't hesitate!

Great flops! I have not had them long but the most comfortable I've ever worn. My feet said ahhhh and of course props to Zappos as usual for truly great customer service!

Expensive flops, but worth every penny. I have always had cheaper Reefs that were awesome. These Akua's are made with the best quality materials, design I've ever seen. High quality product; 5 stars all around. Life is short, enjoy your feet.

Great look and design however, I give 4 stars because of the price point which was a lot. This product does not stand up to this price. I have worn sandals for 20 years. Zappos is great! This product is not worth the money.

Wonderful sandals...much "dressier" than most with great arch support. Highly recommended!

Fantastic fit, comfort, and wear. I have purchased 3 different OluKai styles and all have lived up to expectations. Other brands have not come close.

Great sandals! Nicely constructed and a big step up from cheap flip flops.

These flips are all leather -- even the outer sole. They are extremely comfortable and required no "break-in." The inner sole molds to your feet more and more every day you wear them. It is true that the thong seems stiff (and after over a month have not gotten any looser), but I've gotten used to it. I normally wear a 14, but I had to order the 15 in this particular model in order to get the best fit. When talking comfort, it's a close call between the Akua and the Moko. I think the Akua's sole has less spring than the Moko, but the Akua is all-leather and has a pretty stitch-work design on the footbed -- a cut above the rest. Finally, the arch support is moderate -- not quite as high as on the Moko, and far lower than the Ohana, which in my opinion has the best support of any flip-flop on the market.

Not cheap, but these sandals are actually worth it. They are comfortable, durable, and look great! I live in Florida and wear them year round.

I'm normally not a sandal person but I have to say that those are very, very comfortable. It took me a while to get used to the strap between my toes, but if you are looking for a nice, comfortable, and good looking sandal… You found it.

Bought these as a Christmas present to myself. The quality is remarkable and this is a sandal that can be worn on a dress up occasion!

Great quality as has been the case with most of the OluKai products I have seen. I will start by saying I wear a 13 in regular shoes. I ordered a 14 in some of my other OluKais which fit perfect. But based on a previous review for these I ordered a 15 in this particular model. Thank goodness I did because it would have meant a return if I had ordered 14. So the moral to the story is order 2 sizes larger than you wear in normal shoes. And 1 size larger than other OluKais if you have any other models that fit. Great flip flops. OluKais are the only shoe I wear if I can help it. Comfort on this particular model is yet to be determined but they feel good initially. The thong is a little thicker and dense (hard) than my other pairs so that will take some getting used to.

Expensive? Yes, But worth it for the fit and quality of the best sandal I've ever owned. this is my fourth pair of OluKai shoes and I can attest that they are better than all any other that I have seen out there; better style, fit, quality & longevity.

I've been buying Olukai sandals for about 6 years. I usually buy 2 or 3 per year. Although I think these are the most beautiful Olukai ever made, they are also the most uncomfortable ever made. The inside of the straps do not have the sown in neoprene like most Olukais and the leather straps are very stiff. I even tried using leather softener to soften them up and no luck. I bought them for my beach wedding in Kauai because they looked nice but my feet were aching within an hour of putting them on and now I'm stuck with them. Also the white Olukai logos rub off way to easy, they don't stay looking nice for long. One drop of water on the logo's and they faded. These are a real disappointment.

Really nice! Highly recommend! They do run small so I would suggest ordering one size larger than normal. I had to return the 12s I got and exchange them for 13s.
