I've worn Chaco flip-flops for years, but I haven't been completely satisfied with them for a few years... now I have found a replacement! These have a great arch support and the footbed is soft without being too soft. This is a flip-flop I'll live in.

True Hawaiian style - these are so comfortable out of the box, that I own TWO colors - aqua and bougainvillea!! Perfect for beach, grocery shopping, to/fro yoga studio. Arch is supportive but not too high for my low arch (have tried Vionic, which is too high for my low arch). I also have a bunion on my left foot; this style sits just below it, unlike the Ohana style which hit right on the edge of the bunion. Cute, cute, cute!!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!

You can never go wrong with OluKai's. Super arch support, soft footbed, and fun colors. Arch support is key when wearing flip flops.

Perfect to pack on vacation as lightweight & doesn't take up much space. The Silver/Black color is fancy enough to wear with maxi dresses or casual with jeans & shorts. Comfortable to wear all day.

I have ordered many shoes from Zappos because I know that if there is a problem, they will fix it. I bought these sandals to wear to my son's wedding in Maui. Everyone is going to wear flip flops and these match my mother-of- the groom dress perfectly. They are very comfortable with adequate arch support and fit generously. I recommend them highly.

These are the most comfortable flip flop I've ever worn! Took them on a quick vacation and didn't need any break in time...perfect right out of the box. Yes they are a little pricey but sooo worth it! Will certainly be ordering more!

I have recently decided to do right by my feet and buy shoes that provide proper support. I love me some flip flops so these were perfect. I bought 2 pair and plan to wear them to hawaii on vacation too.
I am a strong 9.5 and I went with a 9 and they fit great. I was worried they would be short but it worked out just fine! I am excited to see how these hold up over time since they are a bit pricey but my feet will thank me I am sure!

This is a very comfortable sandal. I wear a size 6 1/2W and the 7 fit perfect. I tried the Ohana sandal; the 6 was too small and the 7 was too large. I would definitely recommend this sandal.

Perfect shower/pool/beach shoe for folks who need arch support. helped with my plantar fascia pain and don't look too old-lady orthopedic. Sometimes I wear them as slippers around the house, too.

In the last month I have been on a mission to find a good pair of flip flops for my new yoga daily obsession. No lie, I ordered nothing less than 8-10 pairs of flip flops to find the perfect pair. (Rainbow, Havanais, OluKais, Tory Burch)
I ended up keeping these pair as my second favorite.
Two things you need to know:
1) Your heel will be right at the edge to feel right. I like a little sandal past my heel, but when I ordered a size up they were way too big.
2) These shoes are slightly on the heavy side, but not nearly as heavy as my Chacos (omg, those are SO heavy). The arch support is amazing though.
I ended up also ordering the OluKai Ho'opio Leather and loving them and their thin strap slightly more than these pair. But kept both because the metalic I ordered for my Ho'Opio's are perfect to dress up with other clothing and summer dresses and looking nice too. But less heavy and OH so comfortable! My new favorites!

These sandals are amazing. They have good arch support and I can walk in them all day without any issues. I also like them because they don't look big or bulky (I have a narrow foot). I live in these during the summer.

Why did I wait so long?? I have been in need of new black flip flops for months and have been considering these for a long time. Just couldn't get over the hurdle of paying more than $20 for flips but I am so happy I did! These are hands down the most comfortable I've ever owned. Great arch support and cushion. I had back surgery 7 months ago and really need a comfort shoe but not ready to commit to ortho-looking options. I am a solid 8 1/2 and went with the 8 - just personal preference. The 9 fit fine too but I don't like too much shoe showing in the front. I have a wide foot and high in step and these work great for me.
Love this shoe and will buying some for my mom for Christmas!

My second pair of these fantastic flip flops. I used to only wear Volatile and, I still love those too but, these are my favorites now. I literally feel that my first pair were like an extension of my foot. Felt almost like I was wearing nothing on my feet.

Probably the most comfy flip-flop I've had yet, and it came highly recommended by my local Maui friends. I do think though that they should offer 1/2 sizes. I'm anywhere from 7-8 but ordered the 8 and they fit ok, just need to break them in a little. Also the straps were rubbing a bit and felt rough on my skin underneath on one of them, but now seem ok after i got them wet. Next pair I buy will be a different style, and probably a size 7.

LOVE them. wear them almost every day. only problem is that my (wide) feet feel like the foot pad where the pinkie toe meets my foot is turned up a bit. this leads to minor discomfort when worn too much

Here on the "Valley Isle" of Maui, we grew up wearing RUBBAH SLIPPAHS so when I began experiencing sharp and stabbing heel pain on the right, it was no surprise to find out I needed arch support.
It took some getting used to these OluKai's and for a while there I reverted back to my trusty slippahs but the pain was unbearable!! So I forced myself to wear these whenever I was out in my slippahs and now they are my go to - rubbah slippahs what?
I no longer have debilitating heel pain and can walk for long distances in these without discomfort. I really need to invest in another pair.

Just the right amount of arch support for me, but I'm not wearing them all day. Usually, I'm just wearing them around the house, or to go to the pool.

Love these flip flops! I have a narrow (2A) foot with a bunion and plantar fasciitis and these work great and provide excellent arch support for high arches. I have had trouble finding comfortable narrow shoes all my life. I wore Munros but needed arch support for pf so please keep these on the market! I wish the straps were a little tighter for my narrow feet but these work. I also like Cobian flip flops but they squish down eventually and loose the arch support. These are keepers! Thank you!

I loved the shoe, but it was two tight on my left foot. There was not enough give in the strap.

This is the second pair of OluKai Kalupas that I've owned. Loved the first pair, and I"m glad I purchased these. Well worth the price!
