Olu Kai flip flop/sandal -
My first pair of Olu Kai I wore out and will not EVER buy any other flip flop AGAIN. I looked everywhere and could not find my size, then I checked ZAPPOS... I initially ordered them in the KOA color, but received them in a bit darker color and actually liked the darker color better so I kept them. Besides this little error, I HIGHLY recommend these to any body who has foot issues. With not finding the PERFECT fit and comfort, these are almost Birkenstock like in that they will mold to your feet for the PERFECT FIT. The price is worth every penny...

All Olu Kai versions, I own 6 different kinds.

AWESOME sandal -
This flip flop is the MOST comfortable flip flop I have ever worn. The arch is great, it offers a lot of support. I bought two additional pair after my first one! HIGHLY recommend. You will never wear another brand.

I'm walkin' on sunshine...
These are the most comfortable flips ever! If you sometimes wear a 13 when you’re a 12, order the 13.

Style and comfort at its best. Fits so nice. Comfort between the toes and on the soles.

Best shoe ever -
I have plantar fasciitis in both feet. I was told I cold never wear flip flops again by my doctor. But these give me all the support I need. I was amazed at how comfortable they are. I tried my old flops and felt like I was walking on straight pavement, after wearing these. Great shoe!

Get 'em -
This is the most comfortable shoe I own. I've had them about a year now and they still look and feel great. I have a medium-high arch and I have all the support I want. As another reviewer stated, opt for these, not the more expensive Hiapos, the footbed on these is better.

Fits Like a Glove -
These are the most comfortable sandals I have ever owned. I look forward to slipping them on my feet and I am delighted that they feel like a pair of expensive gloves every time I put them on.

Barely Missed Being The Best Flop EVER!!!
The OluKai Kumu could have easily been the best flop I've ever owned. I STILL give it a 9.5 out of 10. The only drawback is that it doesn't have a braided leather strap thong. The arch support is beyond belief. It took me 2 days to break mine in, but I immediately shot hoops and used them after swimming. As a flip-flop aficionado, I know how to break in a pair. Don't waste your time and money on the Hiapos. I tried 3 different varieties and they were all terrible. Are the Kumus worth the price? I think they will last me about 3 years comfortably, so therefore I think they are. I have the Coal/Coal pair, which on this flop... is perfect except for the strap thong not being braided leather.

Perfect!
These flips are the BEST you can get. They feel great...look great and will last a long, long time. The arch support is perfect and the flips stay close to your foot...I have lots of flips and I choose these every time I go out!!! They cost a little more, but, they are well worth it.

Surf’s up -
The best flip flop on the market. Great quality and workmanship. Yes they are expensive, but worth it. These are not for romping through the water, as they are made of leather. Great for wearing pretty much anywhere but to get into water.

Nice Sandal -
Nice sandal, but I would recommend ordering a size larger than your shoe size. They will take a few days to break in.

OluKai Kumu -
Great sandals. I have several pair of Rainbows and these are a much nicer sandal. Compared to the Rainbows, they are about a half size smaller, but fit adequately. If you want a nice and very comfortable upper end/dressier sandal, this is it.

Worth the money -
I bought 16 pairs of different sandals from Zappos to compare and stuck with these. They have great arch support, the leather is really nice, the construction is solid, and the style is wicked.

Unmatched comfort & style -
I wear Red Wings work boots every day and these slaps are the first shoe to EVER come close to the arch support I am used to. Look forward to the open-air comfort on the weekends with this great shoe. No discomfort whatsoever and the leather soles never get hot or sweaty.

Great Slider -
This is a great slider. Switched to this brand on a whim, because the brand I wore for years became over commercialized in the non surfing populace. These sliders or flip flops are more comfortable and look great. Will look forward to seeing how long these last. Kudos to Zappos I have ordered all of my shoes from this company for the last few years and have had no complaints. Their service is the best online shopping that I have done, and I almost always shop online when I can.

Olukai Kumu -
Agree with the majority of other reviewers. Great sandal, definitely worth the extra price. Will probably order a second pair soon.

Wow, nice sandals...
Holey moly Zappos is quick!! Originally ordered the Hiapos in black (size 11). Took 4 days to get to me :( I have been wearing a size 10 1/2 for 18 years now. Turned out the be way too big and bulky for me, didn’t fit right and I didn’t like the leather thong, felt too rigid. Called Zappos (an awesome girl answered), reordered and got the Kumu’s in Java/Tan (size 10) at around 4:00pm on Monday, and I have them on my feet right now at 10:30am on Tuesday... :) They fit PERFECT!!! I will be ordering more Olukai's and DEFINITELY from Zappos!!

Like they were made for me!
Very comfortable and great looking. I hardly ever wear this type of sandal, however, I'm going to need them for a upcoming trip. I was told to get used to them first by wearing them around the house and know I hardly ever have them off my feet.

Great Sandal...
...but they were too narrow for my feet. They feel great and look like they'd last forever. Too bad they don't make them a bit wider. They fit about a half to whole size small also.

Wow…what a nice pair of flips -
I'm not one to review online purchases, but I felt compelled to do so here. I whole heartedly agree with other reviewers. An excellent pair of flips, as comfortable as can be and good looking. A little pricey, but worth the money. Will buy the brand again. Zappos delivery is the best of all online retailers I have used.

OluKai Kumu -
These are the Escalade of slaps. Are they worth it? Yup. The most comfortable slaps around. Excellent footbed design and great materials, what more can you ask for? I bought the Kumu in black. The contrast stitching is much darker on my pair than the picture shows, so they look all black. Love them.

This is by far the best thong sandal I've ever owned! The footbed is extremely comfortable and has supported me in all my urban adventures and the look of the sandal is very classic and cool.

Da KINE!!! Perfect. Check Box...Done for several years...
Took about a week to fully break them in. First two days a little rough then I washed them down with the hose and they were perfect. These are just at home at the four seasons as well as down at the local breakfast joint after a surf. Real nice arch support makes them easy to wear for long periods of time without tiring your feet. Quality, looks to me like they will outlast me. The only thing you have to worry about is getting them stolen if you leave them lying around!!! Worth the extra money. Da Kine, brah!

Well worth the money -
I was hesitant to pay this much for a flip flop, but after considering how much time I spend in them over the summer months and how much my feet ache at the end of the summer, I decided to take a chance on this pair. It was well worth it! They rank in the top 3 most comfortable shoes I’ve ever owned. The only drawback is it takes a little time to get used to the leather insteps, but once you break them in a bit, they are great. Amazing arch support and overall craftsmanship.
