OLUKAI Ho'opio Leather Women's Beach Sandals, Full-Grain Leather Flip-Flop Slides, Modern Low Profile Design & Comfortable Fit

I don't like to review things without using them/wearing them for a period of time.I bought these flip flops june 2024. I LOVE them! They are my favorite flip flops. Why? Because I have lower back issues. These flip flops have a built in arch support, are NOT squishy (which are bad for back issues) and are high quality. Nothing like an Old Navy (foam) flip flop. They are worth the money. These flops were worn on 3 beach vacations and throughout all last summer (2024) and I have brought them out for 2025 travel. They still feel/look great. I came back to order another pair for this summer and decided to review them. I have had no issues with the leather tearing or coming apart. Some reviews talk about them being heavy, but I don't think they are "heavy"as much as they are high quality materials (not just foam). They are not light weight but I beleive thats what makes them a good walking summer shoe. They have been worn at the ocean, in sand, walking on concrete and all over town. For sizing, I do wear a 7.5 and ordered an 8 and they fit great, so maybe order up.

Always good with this brand

These are very comfortable and look good on. Nice and casual. I like the sleek, not bulky style.

These sandals are the most comfortable Sandles you will ever wear.

Since I spend my life in flip flops, these are really good looking. They a little hard to break in.

Update Nov. 2024 - I've had these for 3 years and after putting them through EXTREME use, the thong part finally tore away from the right-hand sandal after accidentally catching my foot very hard on a curb. They were definitely starting to show their wear, but as you can see in my original review below, it's hardly unexpected. Will be buying a new pair ASAP.Original review Dec. 2022: Bought these a year ago, I live in North Africa and wear these nearly 24/7. Pictured here during a week of trekking in the Sahara. Y'all, these are indestructible. I have pretty high arches, so most shoes/sandals are way too flat and give me searing pains in the arch and foot pain after walking for a short time. I put up to several miles a day on these nearly every day, to the market and farm and back, and zero pain. Wear them hiking in the rocky Atlas mountains, wading through rivers, no issues. Wear them constantly to the beach, including in the water, they handle rocks, water, salt, sand, everything. Never any smells like some brands. I can't praise these highly enough, I recommend them to everyone I meet, and won't be buying any other sandals or flip-flops for life.
