OLUKAI Ohana Men's Beach Sandals, Water Resistant Flip Flops, Arch Support & Comfort Fit, Lightweight & Durable, Enhanced Grip & Traction

FLIP FLOP COMPARISONS:OLUKAI OHANA THE BEST OVERALWITH THE "CROCS MODI" - THE MOST BANG FOR THE $.In my efforts to find a GREAT Flip Flop (and attempt improvement on my Crocs MODI's I did a LOT of reading, Flip Flop reviews on the internet. The first decent Flip Flops I bought was a pair of Crocs MODI Flips, that were on sale at my local sporting goods store..... I LOVED THEM !! My only concern was that they might not be as sturdy (or long-lasting) as a Super Expensive, well made pair. So, of course, I had to do more research and try to find THE BEST Flip Flops made. Finally (after much review reading) I settled on three.I have now worn all three for about 3 weeks. I cannot attest to durability after only 3 weeks but I can give my impression of what their durability might be. The features I was looking for were: Contoured Foot Bed, Arch Support, Comfort, Cushiness & Sole flex, Quality of Workmanship, Staying on During Activities, Running true to Size and Impression of Durability.FYI - I normally wear a size 10.5 med. shoe.The three Flip Flops I tried were:Croc's MODI $ - Size 11 MOluKai Ohana $$$ - Size 11 M They were a bit loose so I exchanged them for a size 10 M. (However, that was a mistake when the Foot Bed proved to be too small).Vionic Harbor $$ - Size 11 M (with the Velcro adjustment strap.)Let me say that on a scale of 0 to 5; with 0 being unacceptable and 5 exceeding my expectations, all three of the Flips I bought scored very high.CONTOURED FOOTBED:Croc's MODI - 5, very nice contoured foot bed and heel.OluKai Ohana - 5, very nice contoured foot bed and heel.Vionic Harbor - 5, very nice contoured foot bed and heel.ARCH SUPORT:Croc's MODI - 5, very good arch support, positioned where it should be. not too high or too low.OluKai Ohana- 5, very good arch support, positioned where it should be. not too high or too low.Vionic Harbor- 5, very good arch support, positioned where it should be. not too high or too low.COMFORT:Croc's MODI - 5, very comfortable. The toe post is fairly comfortable.OluKai Ohana - 5, very comfortable. The toe post is a DREAM.Vionic Harbor - 3+, pretty comfortable, may take a little getting used to, or breaking in. The toe post was the most irritating of the three - Hoping that will get better with time.. The Velcro adjustment strap did not cause any discomfort. NOTE: After wearing them for 3 weeks, I simply couldn't take the irritation of the R. toe post. Had to send them back. Too bad, they appeared to be exactly what I wanted.CUSHINESS & SOLE FLEX:Croc's MODI - 4+, pretty cushy, when walking. Sole is flexible, but not mushy.OluKai Ohana - 5+, Simply THE BEST, a wonderful cushy walk. (Not too soft, not too hard.) Slightly flexible Sole - Just the right amount of flex.Vionic Harbor - 3++, a little stiffer than the other two but QUITE acceptable. Sole is the stiffest of the three but still somewhat flexible.QUALITY OF WORKMANSHIP:Croc's MODI - 5, a well made, well designed Flip Flop.OluKai Ohana - 5+, SUPERBLY designed and well made.Vionic Harbor - 5, Excellent design and workmanship.STAYING ON DURING ACTIVITIES:Croc's MODI - 5+, SIMPLY THE BEST! Stays securely on my feet during all activities.OluKai Ohana - 4, A bit loose, Staying securely in place? Takes some getting used to (I tried buying one size smaller - fit better but, then, the foot bed was too small).Vionic Harbor - 4, the Velcro adjustment strap helps it fit snugly. (no need for smaller size.)RUNS TRUE TO SIZE:Croc's MODI - 5, EXCELLENT !! Spot on! The size 11 M, fits my size 10.5 M foot perfectly.OluKai Ohana - 4, Fit PERFECTLY, except I found them to be a bit loose. (Tried correcting - by exchanging for a size smaller - Didn't work, foot bed was then too small).Vionic Harbor - 5, Excellent !! Again the Velcro adjustment makes up for any minor fit deviations.IMPRESSION OF DURABILITY:Croc's MODI - 4, the rather soft sole, looks as if it might wear out. But for the VERY REASONABLE PRICE - you could simply replace themOluKai Ohana - 5+, these Flips look like they would outlast me. After 3 weeks of wearing them constantly there is absolutely no signs of wear.Vionic Harbor - 5+, a very well-made Flip. Also looks like they will last many seasons.

I'm a 10.5 EE in quality leather boots. I'm a 10 to maybe a 10.5 in tennis shoes. I'm almost always an 11 in sandals. I ordered an 11 here and the fit is great.The arch height on these was surprising at first. I honestly wore them around the house for a while before I could convince myself I didn't hate them enough to return them. The first few hours were odd enough that I felt like I was duck-walking. After that, I was honestly amazed at the comfort and support. It gets more and more comfortable with wear. I've had them soaking wet from slipping into them straight from a pool. They maintained no-slip grip, and dried very quickly. The colors (blue and grey) were neutral enough to wear with basically anything, and that's if you're being picky. I still may pickup another pair in brown.I struggle with sandals. Some of them with soft soles seem to crush to the point I can feel stones through them. Some of them are so bulky and rigid they feel like clogs. These are both sturdy, soft, and comfortable.The cost is a bit steep, but I feel like the value, comfort, and features justify the price. Great purchase honestly.

I wear these daily and over the past 6 years have only needed 3 pairs, and one of those was stolen and even made it through a moped crash. These are the only slippers that don't turn sideways on my feet, because of the molded in arch support. They look great, last long, and are super comfortable.

Bought my first pair five years ago and I'm still wearing them. They are just now showing a little wear. The sole is still good. The strap is still firmly attached to the sole. The only issue in five years is the strap is showing wear on the inside. They are still comfortable and look good. I feel I definitely got my money's worth! I rarely write reviews and thought this company earned a good review.

Purchased these due to other reviews and positive comparisons found online, have had them about a week, and have just worn them around the house and on a couple quick errands. As others have said, they are very comfortable. They do mold to your foot over time, and are already starting to do so from just wearing them here and there. The arch support is excellent as well, best I've had in a flip flop. Also, they are wider than other brands (Reef, especially), which is good for those of us with a wider foot. I usually take a wide or 2E shoe and these fit nicely (though, admittedly, not much room on the sides). The traction is pretty good on these as well. Wore them out in the rain to test traction and how waterproof they are, and no issues. Looks like they were never wet. Strap isn't tight either, and I have a tall foot and high arches. Fits nicely without rubbing.With that said, there are some minor issues. They look nice, but are a bit on the clunky side. Not a sandal you're going to forget you're wearing. Length wise, these are a tad short compared to what I'd prefer. I am a 10.5, typically wear 11's in flip flops, and I am used to some room at the ends. However, these are closer to a 'perfect' fit in that there's not a ton of room left. I'm hoping they will flatten/stretch a bit, as most flip flops do. If not though, they fit well, just not as roomy as expected. So, I'd recommend considering a size up if you like some space in the back and front. Finally, if you have low arches or flat feet, I'm not sure these are your ideal flip flops. The arch support is pretty tall and solid, so it may be more of a pressure point that a cushion to some. Finally, and this is personal opinion, just not a fan of the cursive 'OluKai' stitching on the strap. Makes an otherwise manly, sturdy sandal look...well, less so, in my opinion.Overall, it's a nice, comfortable sandal that should be good for whatever you want to do, weather it's going to the beach (though not sure how abrasive sand will be on there) or walking a few miles around town.
