LOVE these flip flops. I will not buy any other. I can walk for days in these without pain.

Surprisingly comfortable for a flip flop. I am an 8.5 and ordered a 9 and the fit was perfect, would not go down a size. They stay on the foot easily and are not tight. Would buy again.

The 7, my normal shoe size was too small but the 8 was too big in the straps.

Cute sandal but for the price not that comfy. The arch support is good but the sandal itself isn’t very flexible and kind of stiff.

The straps were narrow enough and thin enough to be stretchy when I walked which irritated my foot. The straps felt too loose on me. It may be that my foot is narrow enough that these do not work, but I will exchange these for a thicker strap before giving up on the brand.

I ordered my regular size. It is a tighter fit than other flip flops I own in that size but it is fine on my foot. Love the arch support.

The straps on these flip flops are very tight. I really font understand this company. One style of sandals will have extremely tight straps and another will be extremely loose. I am not ordering them anymore.

I love OluKai and these are my favorite for comfort but they turn my toes black!

I was afraid I wouldn't be able to find these flip flops that I had bought several years ago and figured if Zappos didn't have them, nobody would! I made the mistake of ordering the wrong style which was the Ohana and they were nowhere near the same fit as these, they were too narrow and didn't have the more cushioned footbed. If you want comfort and a thinner strap with lots of color choices....this style Kulapa Kai is the pick for you! I wear a size 8 shoe and the size 8 sandal is a perfect fit, also I have wider feet and a bit higher arch and these are so comfy and perfect! The black/black goes with everything and I like that the top strap is a bit shiny so it makes it a bit dressier for a night out with black shorts and cute top! And coming from Zappos, you know it will be fast shipping and easy returns just in case!

I have recently become an Olukai convert for the mesh tennis shoe. However, I ordered these expecting to love them. The shoe fits my foot, but the actual arch support is 1/2 inch off where my actual arch is. Strange, but I ended up returning them.

I own several different styles of Olukai sandals -- Kumu, I'a, Ohana and Ho'opio. I find these Kulapa Kai and the I'a (no longer produced, but seemingly identical in style to the Kulapa Kai) to have the best arch support of all -- at least they work for me. Olukai sandals are of consistently high quality.

Those are good flip-flops, but I was looking for Kulapa Kai that have footbed lined with leather. It was my mistake, I thought that name Kulapa Kai is enough but obviously it should have "leather" added to it. I need to replace my one year old "Kulapa Kai leather" because a nylon toe post is wearing off. Sadly it is a very weak point of those sandals.

I own two pair of this style - both purchased from Zappos two years ago. I love them and wear them frequently. I am difficult to fit with wide forefoot/narrow heel and high arches, but these were a perfect, comfortable fit from the beginning. So I ordered a new pair in a different color this season. The fit is noticeably different - straps are tighter on the top of my foot, and arch support is disappointingly less. When I wear one of my old sandals on one foot and one of the new ones on the other, I can clearly feel the difference in the arch support. I tried to contact Olukai Customer Service to find out if my pair is an anomaly or if they have changed the fit - but they have yet to respond. This pair will be returned - whether I reorder will depend on what I hear from Olukai. Disappointed.

My first pair of OluKai flip flops. Love them so much I ordered a second pair. Very comfortable and appreciate a little arch support. Stylish too. Bought a silver and a black pair.

I purchased these flip flops because someone recommended them for people with plantar fasciitis. The flip flops have a nice look to them and I believe they will be durable. However, I found them very uncomfortable - the straps rubbed my feet raw from a short walk. Also, they do not have enough arch support for plantar fasciitis. If you do not have foot problems and are looking for a cute flip flop, go with a less expensive brand. If you have foot problems, then try another brand.

These were super cute and overall comfortable, but too narrow in the back.

I was very unsure about these because I'd hear little about this particular brand. I'm already recommending to all I meet. New fave flop

I had previously purchased and have worn these flip flops in black for a couple of years. Zappos price was significantly better than my previous purchase. The pink & black are cute, the flip flops are comfortable and great to walk in--they stay pretty snug to your feet as you walk, so they are not actually flipping & flopping around as you move!

This is the second pair of OluKai sandals I have purchased. I need a good arch support and this sandal
provides that. I can put them on and wear them for a long period of time without my feet hurting.
I have to order up one size to get the perfect fit. Love these sandals!

First let me just say that I can NOT do thong sandals. They’ve always been too uncomfortable....until now. I figured I’d give them a try as I have fallen arches that have made my feet pretty flat and I was interested in the support these supposedly had. Well they DO have the support I need...and because of the fabric thong and anatomical footbed I’m happy to say I can wear these thong sandals! Because my foot is aligned correctly, the thong isn’t a problem. For those who are half sized I would recommend going up. I am usually a 7 1/2 and the 8 “just” fits. I highly recommend these very comfortable and supportive flip flops!
