These are the best sandals I ever have owned. Very comfortable arch support, but not too high as to be uncomfortable. They are defintiely water resilient, and I wore them to the beach for my week vacation. Can be dressed up as the straps are shiny. They spray down easily to get all sand off. Sand does stick to these sandals and requires water or simple brushing off to clean them up after a day at the beach. I really love them and will definitely be interested in purchasing another pair of Olukai again.
One other thing about the sandals is that they fit nicely on your foots. Other sandals I tried, I felt like I had to curl my toes to keep them on because the straps were to loose on my foot to keep them on. These fit a lot better. I do not have a wide foot.

If you have high arches and narrow feet - these are the most comfortable shoes. The design supports my high arch unlike over flip flops. Cost more but last a long time and very comfy!

Having worn FitFlops for years, as well as Reef, decided to try these based on the reviews. Now I can't stop wearing them! These have support and are so incredibly comfortable. Highly recommend these and Zappos!

I walked on some glass shards and had to toss a pair after two years. These are the perfect replacement. Fit like a glove. Look so good on my feet.

Best flip flops ever! These are great. They have arch support and the detailing on the leather straps dress them up a little from the average flip flop. Highly recommend. True to size.

Fabulous snug - perfect fit, walked miles the first time I wore them. I am worried about wearing them out as I see my toe depressions when I wear them a lot. But I am sad that I do not see my sea-foam blue-green color anymore (please bring that color back). Guess my next pair will be charcoal. Look elegant on and the straps extend so far back that they stay on naturally.

These were definitely a different type of a sandal. I have always worn Reefs because of the arch support. When I received the OluKais' I wore them to shop for about 4 hours. They were comfortable at first but they made my feet and legs ache. Over the next week or so, I just wore then for about an hour at the time and got used to them and now I can wear them all day with no problem. They're comfortable. The strap fits higher on your foot than most flip flops. I normally wear an 8 but ordered a 9 because of the reviews I had read about them. I will more than likely purchase another pair of OluKai sandals.

I love love love these flip flops. I was hesitant to pay this much for them but am glad I took the chance. The arch support is great. I'm a size 9 1/2 and purchased a 10. At first, I thought it was too small but then after wearing them for a day and they loosed a bit, they were perfect.

Most comfortable flip flops ever! I usually wear size 5.5, but the 6 fits great. Bought a pair to wear out and about and one to wear in the house as house shoes because of the excellent arch support and comfort. Seriously, I find myself picking outfits that will go with these shoes cause I don't want to take them off!

These are great flip-flops. They are super comfortable,with arch support and the textured leather straps make them a bit more dressy than average flip-flops. You will love them! I bought them in two colors.

Am a little perplexed by the high ratings for arch support. They have more support than the WalMart flip flop but they're still flip flops! They're comfortable but wouldn't count on support for lots of walking.

I am a dog groomer and am on my feet all day. I was having back and hip problems and now wear my Olukai's every day. I must have purchased 10 pair in the last 4 or 5 years. All colors, like Ohana the best. Everyone seems to be buying larger, I started purchasing a smaller size, works better for me.

Very light and comfortable. A little more arch support than a normal flip flop, but not enough that I'd consider it a orthotic shoe.

I like these shoes because they are comfortable and offer arch support which is rare for flip-flops but they are making my feet smell! I have never had this issue with flip-flops before and am annoyed by it. I am wondering if anyone else has noticed this or knows how to fix it. I tried cleaning them and letting them dry in the sun and am not wearing them every day. This is frustrating.

I had high hopes for these to replace my spongy Tevas that turn my feet black. But these have a hard sole, and the "thong" ribbon is very small and rough - I can feel a blister forming next to my big toe just looking at it. In addition, they seem to run narrow. Look cute, but not what I was looking for.

These are the best flip flops ever! Great arch support and the foot bed is not slick so your foot doesn't slide around when you walk. I would say it fits a size smaller. I usually wear a size 10 in a flip flop but had to buy a size 11 in these.

Really love these flip flops. They're super comfortable for every day and long wear throughout the day. They have great arch support and excellent cushioning. My only complaint would be that the straps feel a little loose, otherwise I'd give it 5 stars.

These are the most comfortable flip-flops for all day walking walking. There is nice arch support for flip-flops and no rubbing. I purchased my normal sandal size and the fit was great. The subtle detail on the straps make them a little dressier than the standard OluKais.

I love this flip flop. It is definitely more money then I would normally pay for a flip flop, but if you consider that I wear them almost every day in the summer the comfort and arch support make it worth the money. I only rated the style as 4 stars because its pretty basic but that is what I was looking for.

I now need arch support in all my shoes, so I am happy about these - I can still wear flip flops! These are very comfortable with a cushioned footbed. Good width (my feet are on wide side) while still looking like a feminine shoe. They felt a little tight at first, but after wearing them a couple times they feel just right (I usually wear an 8.5 and I ordered the 8). The straps have a little shine to them - dresses them up a little!

I wanted to get flip flops with great arch support and comfortable heel because I have both plantar fasciitis and collapsing arches. These do the job, for sure. However, the top part of my feet developed cuts within one block of wearing them from where the thong attaches to the straps. Instead of returning them, I'm hot gluing a small square of felt over the part that rubs. I hope that solves the problem!

This is my second pair of these flip-flops. Very comfy and durable. The other pair is still in good shape after two seasons of constant wear. Just wanted another color. Nice arch support! Runs slightly small - but not small enough for me to size up.

I love these flip flops! They are very comfortable - great for the beach, pool and around the house. I do not like all white sandals, but the contrast with these having black soles and the white upper part is perfect. They go with everything.
