Customer Reviews OluKai Waialua Mesh

I liked the look of these but they were so hard to get on my foot! It was hard to even get the cardboard insert out! I feel like the shoe doesn't stretch so I had to bend the heel down to put my foot into the shoe, and then work to fold the heel back up. And there is little to no arch support.

Comfortable kicks. Was a little disappointed that the fabric looks more like mesh than the photos online. Makes them a little more casual that I was originally going for, but keeping them for the comfort.

This is a really comfortable pair of shoes that would be easy to wear for an active day anywhere. The mesh is nice and seems to keep them much cooler than many others I have worn in the summer. My only concern is that in the beige pair, the only color they had in my size, looked a little too much like slippers. It was really nice that they felt like that too. I needed a more dressy sneaker. (That might be a contradiction in terms.) I suspect that they look better in the other colors.

I have a pair of OluKai flip flop and feel they have better support than these. I still think they are comfortable but not as comfy as the flip flops

These are cute and dark grey happens to be my favorite color. Wearing them around the house the lining feels super soft and comfy straight away. Size wise here is the kicker: if you have a wide foot I would probably order your normal size. I ordered a 7.5 from my favorite company Zappos and it was ok. They were out of my color preference in a size 8, so I had to get it from their parent company. While it was only a smidgen longer it was definitely wider. My big toe touches the edge of the shoe slightly but it isn't a huge issue since it doesn't touch the end.

These are really comfortable shoes! They are very minimalist and surround your foot snuggly, but comfortably.

While the shoes felt very light on my feet, almost like wearing a pair of comfy slippers, there was not enough arch support or foot paddling for me. The Pehuea style feels much more supportive and I will buy that style again. If you don't have arch problems, this shoe style would be a nice choice.

I liked the shoe but it was not at all comfortable. I could not get it on with a light sock, even though it was long enough. The heel was very wide and the shoe did not fit properly. I bought two different styles, this one and the Pehua. The Pehua was even more uncomfortable. Too bad, I liked the look of both shoes and they have overall good reviews.
