    Love these! I wanted the Rainbow narrow strap sandals, but they were too narrow for my foot. I ended up trying these on in the store and fell in love! Ordered from Zappos and received them the next day. Fit is perfect (true to size) and these sandals are so comfortable - no breaking in required. I love the arch support, too. Don't hesitate if you are thinking about these.

    While these are a bit pricey for flip flops, they are so comfortable that I actually bought a second pair. The leather is so comfortable and quite pretty. I am a fan of the ribbon instead of leather between my toes but these are so comfortable that it didn\'t matter. But it is the arch support that is the best part. Flip flops frequently have no arch support but these are definitely are the exception. If they could, my feet would sigh with relief every time I put these on.

    I was really excited to try these, but when I tried them on the straps were really loose and the foot bed was slipper, making it really hard to even walk. The toe post is pretty uncomfortable as well. Needless to say, these are getting sent back. If you have fatter feet, these will probably be fine for you, but otherwise, no.

    from Western NY, AZ

    These are a great looking pair of flip flops. The stitching was very cool and the foot bed was comfy. Not as much arch support as the Haiku. The sole is a full rubbery bottom, as the Haiku have two separate sole pads. unfortunately the straps were too loose. As I tried them out around the house I found myself curling up my toes and fighting to keep them on my feet. I ordered a second pair to be sure and they fit the same way. I sent them back. Totally bummed. I have the Haiku, different fit and thicker straps, very comfy.

    Every summer I buy a casual pair of sandals, usually flip flops and wear them until they fall apart. These sandals are not going to fall apart! Comfortable, attractive, with great stitching on the foot bed. Friends ask me what brand they are and where I got them! They are definitely worth the price!

    I like them! Just enough heel to make them dressier than flip flops and very comfy. The foot beds feel different (actually keeps my feet from moving around) because of the embossing - and the sandals have enough bend to make them easy to walk in. I took them out of the box and wore them all day - they are definitely a favorite sandal.

    These sandals are great. They conformed to my foot the first day that I wore them. I will buy other Olukai styles. Zappos is my first stop when I am looking for a particular shoe. I wear a size 6 and is often difficult to find. Love the selection and the customer service.

    from Santa Cruz, CA

    Just received these and am so disappointed that I have to return them. They are way too narrow, my little toe hangs off. Also a bit too long at the top, heel part is fine. Why can't they make flip flops in widths? We all have different shaped feet and I wish I could find a pair that fits mine without having to consider guys' flip flops, yuk. Style-wise they are clunky and if you wear an 11 as I do, forget it, to me they look ugly. I was not impressed that it took 7 days to receive these. Ordered the evening of June 8, received June 15.

    Love these sandals. I am going to order another pair in black. I wasn't sure I was going to like the arch support, but it conforms to your feet. I usually wear the cheap flip flops, but I think I will be wearing these more. Fast shipping. I ordered these on a Sunday night and received them on Tuesday.

    I ordered three different styles of Olukai's and these were the winners. They are super comfortable, this is coming from someone who wears orthotics. Great foot support, comfy between toes, well made. Only change would've been the color. I wish it were more of an orange red.

    I agree that the foot bed is slippery when new but that didn't stop me from wearing them all day every day from the moment I opened the box. After trying both the size 7 and 8 (I usually wear 7 1/2) I got the 7. These are built to last!

    I fell in love with these at a surf shop while on vacation this summer. Decided to research them on Zappos when I got home. It took three tries, but once I got the right fit, I have worn them literally every day this summer. Great arch support and so stylish! This style is true to size. Can't say enough about how cute they are-I can be hip and have good arch support this one!

    These sandals are awesome. They have a wonderful arch support that shapes to the sole of the foot. I have problems with my left foot keeping sandals on my foot. I tend to walk backwards out of them. But this sandal\'s sole shape helps them to stay in place. Love the fit and the design on the sole massages the sole of the foot, as well.

    I love these sandals. I own a different style of Olukai that I found very comfy, so I thought I'd give this style a try. I started out with the brown pair and eventually bought the black and teal. Very comfortable, with moderate arch support. I did feel that the strap between the toe needed a little more breaking in than the rest of the sandal, but overall, very comfy. They also run true to size. I would recommend these to anybody, even though I feel they are a little pricey.

    These are absolutely the most comfortable pair of sandals you are going to find for the price. They are ready to wear as soon as you slip them on...no rubbing, breaking in etc. I can wear these all day and my feet are never tired. I was a Born sandal girl before but with the awesome arch support these have I will be buying these from now on.

    These took a while to break in: the leather straps cut into the tops of my foot the first couple of times I wore them. A couple of bandaids fixed that up. Right now they're my favorite shoes. They're slightly more dressy than most flipflops and I can wear them to work without feeling like I'm on my way to the pool. They've formed pretty close to my feet and I love them. Trouble is, I can't quite see them lasting that long. After a month, the footbed is very much squished down and they're looking very worn. They were not exactly a bargain. I will try to remain optimistic.
