4.6 Rating 448 Reviews
I've always had trouble finding a shoe that didn't add to my knee and lower back pain...My feet are pretty much flat. I bought these shoes and wore them the entire school year. (I'm a teacher). I took them with me on vacation over the summer thinking that at the end of the summer I would reorder a new pair for the new school year. For five weeks I wore these shoes all over Senegal (west Africa) in dirt/mud roads.Then I wore them to (mildly) hike up and down the coast of Portugal. All of this while recovering from a sprained ankle. They were the only shoes I packed for six weeks and I never once had foot/knee/ankle/back pain, and I did A LOT of walking. The best part is, they are still in GREAT shape, and I don't need to buy a new pair for the upcoming school year. Thank you, thank you Olukai!!

My problem in finding any good shoe is that I'm a 6 heels/6.5 in athletic shoes WIDE, but they're either too narrow, and brands that carry wide are generally ugly. I own a pair of birkenstocks which support the arch...but I'm still trying to figure out how people find them to be comfy for lengthy times. I took a dive with these having never owned a pair of Olukai and I am beyond happy with these sandals!!! They match almost anything in regards to either "going out" or "bumming around." I wear these all day, just walking around and running errands, especially this current summer. Definitely worth the splurge.

I bought a pair of Upena sandals while on vacation in Maine when my black Chaco sandals were stolen, due to the similar strap look. I had never tried OluKai's before. I have all kinds of foot problems & need a supportive foot bed. All I can say is I'm so impressed. This is my new go-to summer sandal. I could take just these (I'm a shoe hoarder & active fashionista) & be good for summer travel. They dress up a sun dress, they stay on my feet for hikes & walks & they are more comfortable than being barefoot. Quality is brilliant. I love my Upena's & I'm an OluKai convert. I'm actually here shopping for another pair & decided to leave a review, because these sandals/brand is so worth it! Love the metallics! Keep 'em coming!

This is my first pair of OluKais and I’m obsessed! I live in a city and walk a ton, these are perfect for summer commuting and weekend chilling. Cute with dresses, jeans, or anything really. Definitely a winner!

I am pregnant and these shoes are a cute comfy sandal for me. I docked a star because I am a true 7.5 and the 8 is just a tad bit too big, but there was no half sizes. Love them! So comfy!
