These sandals are very soft to walk on. The outer sole seems slip resistant. If I have to walk anywhere for a long time, I prefer these. I will get another pair of these when I need to replace them.

I love this flip flop. I am having plantar fasciitis issues and these are really helping my problem! The arch support is great for me and these are extremely comfortable. I was wearing the Orthaheel and while they helped my foot problem, they are quite clunky and heavy feeling. These however, have a memory foam footbed that is extremely comfortable and easy to wear for long periods of time. I highly recommend these!

I love these flip flops. They are contoured so nicely to your foot that they hardly make any sound when you walk. I also bought the white ones. When I put on my older flip flops, it is so obvious how much nicer and more comfortable they are in comparison. I would highly recommend them.

Best flip-flops ever. So comfortable. I do wish they had half sizes. I wear a 7, and the 7s were a tad bit short, so I ordered an 8, which is a smidge too long, but not enough to stop daily wear.

I absolutely love these! I have always wanted to be a flip-flop girl especially because there is so much flip-flop weather in the Southwest where I live, but I do not usually find flip-flops comfortable enough to even wear running to the store. I have tried Sanuk flip-flops and they are soft like a cloud, but not enough support. I have tried Chaco, but they rubbed my feet in the wrong way. These OluKai flip-flops are just right! I slipped them on and they worked right from the start. No rubbing. No blisters. I wore them everywhere this summer. They are just dressy enough to look great with a sundress. They also work with everyday shorts or pants. My feet are a little wider in the toes and they have enough width to not have my feet spilling over, but do not seem like wide shoes. They are true to size.

Worth every penny. I bought these flip flops for a vacation. I wore heck out of them and they were super comfortable with arch support. They are nice enough to wear with a dress for a casual dinner. I got the white ones and they clean-up very well. I thought I was crazy to spend so much on flip flops but I would highly recommend these. I usually wear a 7-1/2 the 7 fit fine.

These are my 3rd pair of OluKai and are my favorite. They are so comfy!!! I love the "snake skin" looking design on the straps. Well worth the money. Now I want the black ones.

I have been looking for a cute, comfortable but not flimsy flip flop that can to tolerate long walks in the streets of New York. I believe I have found it with these. They are very comfy, maybe run a little short but not enough to make me go a full size larger (I am a size 10 and there is no 10.5). Insole is super cushy and the sole seem sturdy. I am glad that it has fabric (nylon) for in between the toes since other materials give me blisters. I got the black and I love that it is a little shiny. The only thing I wish is that it was just a tad wider on the straps to better accommodate my fat/swollen feet (especially at the end of a long work day). I hope the straps stretch with time. Overall, I think they are worth their price.

It's hard to beat an Olukai flip flop. Structurally sound, well made and cute. After reading horror stories about flimsy flip flops being bad for your feet, I swore to give up flimsy, but not flip flops. Thanks to Olukai I don't have to. These are my 3rd pair, and I'll keep looking to them first.

These have become my favorite sandals. They are very sturdy and have held up great for daily wear in and out of the water. They have great arch support and at first may take getting used to, but I needed the support. I normally wear an 8 or 8.5 and went with the 9's. Perfect fit. Overall a very comfortable and sturdy sandal.

I loved the footbed. It was great for my high arches. Unfortunately the strap was too high so my foot didn't fit right. Back they go...I am going to try another style - hopefully there is one for skinny feet.

I bought these to replace my other olukai white flip flops. I noticed they were falling apart. Only after four years, thousands of miles traveled, sea and sand, did they begin to deteriorate. These have a little thicker strap. A nice cloth lining so they are not scratchy. Arch support is wonderful. Love the black bottom compared to white bottoms. Great shoe.

OluKai flips are the best! Comfy, comfy, comfy! I did notice that this particular style runs just a wee bit smaller than the other styles I own, but sizing up would, I think have been too big!

The narrow strap makes this less comfortable than other OluKai flips that I have. It's okay, but just. Not one that I could wear all day.

This is my 2nd pair of Olukai flip flops and I like these as much as my first pair, the Ohana. The fit on the Kulapa Kai is much more snug and the straps are more narrow, but I love them both. Will definitely order in more colors! Order a 1/2 size up if you are unsure, they are very short.

This is my first pair of OluKai and won't be my last. These are very comfortable with excellent arch support, especially for a flip flop. Color is great. I wear a 7.5 and ordered an 8 fits perfectly.

I love theses Flip flops! I have heel problems and have to have shoes with arches. That is what I finally have in these flip flops. They can get wet too!

I wear 6.5 for most shoes, and I found sizing up to size 7 in this model fit me best. A slim fit compared to "Ohana" which has a looser fit . . . I tried on both a 6 and 7 in that model and would wear the size 7.

I love these sandals! I had been shopping a really of pair for a few weeks then came across these which had great reviews. I was worried that they would be a little heavier than I would have liked but I was completely wrong, these sandals are really lightweight and comfortable. As everyone says, the arch support is like no other sandal. You couldn't go wrong with these. I plan to order in black soon!

I really wanted to love these flip flops. I have been wearing Soles for years, and was excited to try a new brand (to me) that looked a little less sporty but still offered support. They are really comfortable, but I find the traction isn't so great. In addition, the spot around the toe (right above it) still causes me a blister, and I have to wear a band-aid every single time I wear these. That isn't good at all. I still like the feel, the support, but with that, I can't be a strong supporter of these babies.

OluKai are the only brand of flip-flops that I wear anymore. I have several pair, but these are the most comfortable of them all. Best arch support, nice flexible strap. Not the fanciest looking of the OluKai lines but if you are looking for comfortable, walking flip-flops, these are a great choice.

This is the first time I have bought an OluKai shoe, and it was a good decision. Excellent arch support. I thought at first that it was too much, but my feet just had to get used to it. They will be on my feet all summer! Only 4 stars because the toe strap is getting dirty due to the light color, so I'll have to scrub it occasionally.

I love these shoes! At first I thought the arch might be too high, since the flip flops I had been wearing had none, but within a few days I got used to it, and think it is more beneficial to have the arch support.

I have several pair of Olukai sandals and purchased the Kulapa Kai W for the first time. The length and width was a perfect 8 -- I have a wide foot and the sandal was the perfect width -- no toe overhanging the sides of the sandal. These don't have the same degree of arch support that the Ohana does, but is still comfortable and can be worn all day. I like the snug fit of these straps versus the Ohana and I'm online ready to purchase another color. The bleached shell is so pretty in person.

Love them they are a little short but keeping them and they are very comfortable and cute like others reviews on said a size up might be too big! Olukiai are great sandals!
