Customer Reviews OluKai Ohana W

Wore these around the house for a couple of hours. They felt fine at first, support is great. After an hour or so they were feeling not as comfortable and maybe the part that goes between your toes may start rubbing. I don't think they are worth the money. They look more like a $30 shoe to me. Color was a nice chocolate.

Bought and returned in my usual size -- slightly small, instep strap strangely tight, arch not placed right for my foot. Squishy footbed seemed nice otherwise.

Well, I was looking for an alternative to my ever-ready Orthaheel Tide, and I loved the plum color. Curiously, although they looked good, the sole was shaped in sort of a "comma", and my feet go very straight. I'm back to my old standby supportive flip flop. These go back.

I found that the top of shoe did not give enough leeway to slip on easily. I have a high arch and the V portion of the thong was too flat and did not give me enough movement. Although the shoe is made well, it didn't fit me well. I purchased size 10 which is usually Euro size 41. However, this shoe is Euro size 40 and a size 10. Inconsistent with euro sizing.

Cute sandal, but I found it a bit short -- normally I wear a 9.5 and I ordered a 9, and probably should have gone with a 10. They still would have worked, but the strap between the toes was too short, and it cut into the top of my foot. Maybe for a person with a narrower foot it would have worked, but it just didn't for me. I'm returning them and not going with a larger size, because it might still have the same issues with the toe strap.

So bummed! These are gorgeous and comfortable, but I agree with the previous reviewer. Something is wrong with the fit. I've got almost a full 1/2 inch of sole in front of my toes, yet my heel is almost falling off the back. It's too bad because everything else is great about this shoe. I don't recommend these unless you have VERY LONG TOES.

I wanted to love these flip flops, but I just couldn't. I have a high arch and a very high instep and a history of plantar fasciitis. So I choose my flip flops with great care. The heel felt low compared to the arch, and it made my foot feel like it was balancing on the middle of my foot. Made me feel very flat footed. The straps felt tight, which may have loosened over time. They were very cute and I wish they had worked.

Looking for flip flop with support for my plantar faciitis as well as being a plus size woman with a wide foot. This wasn't quite the fit for me. I thought the product would be wider with a more substantial sole. Did go with mens model, still barely wide enough and not as much support, cushioning that I'd like.

Unfortunately, my foot was not made for this shoe. I typically wear a size 10 or 10.5, and my foot is pretty skinny, but not enough to need a narrow size. The 10s were too short - my foot was nearly hanging off of the back of the shoe - but the strap fit well. The 11s were the proper length, but the strap was way too big. No 10.5 size available. The 10s may have worked if not for these annoying little bits of plastic that stick up all around the edge of the sandal, especially around the toe area. My toes are really long and were getting painfully stabbed by these plastic bits as I walked. I really wish they had fit as they seem like an exceptionally constructed shoe with great arch support, but at this price point, they need to fit perfectly to be worth my money!

The arch support was like walking with a rock in my arch. Unfortunately, these are going back.

I live in California and need comfortable flip-flops all year round. I am always on the search for the perfect flip-flop and these were not them. They have great arch support, but the rest of the shoe felt stiff, and the sole was not cushiony at all. Also the toe part was very wide, which gave my normally cute foot a duck foot look. I am going back to my Reef Slaps.

Excellent arch support. Wear 7.5 in sandals; ordered an 8; a little too long but okay. The toe strap is too wide and hurts my toes.

The toe strap is quite wide... so that is uncomfortable.

These are very flat and no cushion or arch support. Pretty, but made for a toddler without foot issues

This style did not have enough arch support for me.

Footbed was much too hard. Not enough cushioning.

Worst Olukai purchase of my life, which I wear daily and the fake leather is awful. They toe strap rubs brutally to the point of bloody blisters and they ruined my vacation. Sticking to my paniolos.

Too much of an arch in these flip flops. Not comfortable at all for me.

Cute but not comfortable

I was told to go up a size if half size is normal. Purchased 8 since I'm usually a 7.5. While they were a little long, they were wayyy too wide. They appeared comfortable enough, but looked like Fred Flinstone feet. Returned.

Definitely NOT worth $70. I wear flip flops or sandals year round and have tried a lot of different brands, so I have good comparisons. The arch support is just “okay”, but is seriously lacking compared to Vionic or New Balance. I can get 2 pairs of New Balance for the price of these and they’re not any better - same material, same colors, same fit, but less arch support. I will not purchase again. Don’t waste your money.

This was so highly rated by other people, maybe there's something wrong with me - but, I didn't like the way my heel went down in the back and that made the arch support. I'm sure these are wonderful sandals, but not for me. I don't like having my heel lower in back and my toes sticking up. The description says they have drop in sole, and I think that is what I didn't like about the fit. The other problem is that they were very narrow and the bottoms were really thin. I couldn't imagine walking in an area with rocks underfoot and feeling them through the soles. These must be just beach sandals.

Nice shoes but the arch was too far toward the front of my particular pair of feet. Had to return them.

Now that my old Montrails are pretty much worn out, and Columbia owns that brand and ruined it with inferior flip flops, I have been on the hunt for a flip flop that works for my feet. The OluKai Ohana W is NOT that flip flop. They're narrow, very little arch support, and the straps are tight. Overall, they do not look look like a $65 pair of flip flops--more like a $10 dollar drug store flip flop, which is unfortunate. :( Back they go, and I'm still on the hunt....

Unfortunately, these run very small. I suggest you size up.
