Comfortable, stylish and waterproof!
These shoes are the best! I bought them to wear on a trip to Alaska. I needed something that looked stylish and was also waterproof. These shoes definately lived up to my expectations. They're extremely comfortable and the leather holds up really well. I've worn them for about 5 months now in all types of weather and they look like they are brand new! They also have removable soles so it makes it easy to add in orthotics if you need them. Although they are a little pricey, they are definately worth the money.

Very nice!
I’ve had these in my cart saved for later for a year or more. I finally took the plunge and glad I did. I ordered an 8.5 instead of my usual 8 based on reviews and they fit good. I was little worried about heel slipping since there are no shoe strings, but these do not slip at all. They feel very comfortable on first try on. Beautiful shoe with butter soft material!

Comfortable and Waterproof
I bought these for a trip to Great Britain. They did well trekking around the wet grasses in Scotland and cruising the rainy cities in England, and I walked a lot. No blisters or sore spots. I would recommend these shoes - even though price is insane. I deducted one star because THE SIZING IS STRANGE. I had to send back 2 pairs until I got a pair that fit me. I typically wear a size 7.5, and the reviews said these run small so I ordered an 8. They were very tight, so I ordered a 9, which I was then swimming in... the 8.5 fit perfectly. So maybe order a full size larger than normal. FYI they dry well after getting wet and do not look discolored.

Outstanding waterproof boot
Just returned from a two week tour of Ireland. These boots stood up to all types of weather conditions and looked very stylish with a variety of outfits. And they are so so comfortable. An added feature is that they are scuff resistant! Today the boots look as good as new!

Tight fit
I really loved these shoes except they run small. I originally ordered from Zappos size 8 and retuned because they were too small. I returned them for 8 1/2 and still my toe was at the front. I thought they would stretch a little because they are leather. I did wear them a lot because overall they were comfortable and kept your feet warm and dry. I ordered a size nine because I really liked the shoes and wanted them to be more comfortable. The size nine still pressed on my big toe so I just returned them. Too bad because they are super cute and do keep feet warm and dry.

Great bootie!
I love OluKai and have several pairs of their sandals, all in my normal size. Because of this, I didn’t read the reviews until after I’d ordered this bootie because I was sure I wouldn’t have any problems with them. A day before they came I was wondering if they were really going to fit or if I’d have to send them back for a larger size. They were kind of snug right out of the box but not uncomfortable, so I wore them around the house a couple of times over the next two days to decide whether they’d work for me. They loosened up a little bit, which was enough for me to decide to keep them. I can wear them barefooted or with my lightweight Smartwool socks and they’re pretty comfortable, and also should be warm enough for cold weather as they’re fully lined with a woolly fabric inside.

Not satisfied
Pro- kept my feet dry at a rainy music festival on the beach in the sand and were pretty comfortableCons- Runs very small then stretches out in width and heel so they are sloppy and has creases across the top. Leather heel bled into suede.I am a size 8 medium in most shoes. I am never a 9. I had to size up to a 9 but then a they stretched out. Length still feels ok but top and width are now too big and they look bad. Waste of money in the long run. Not your typical Olukai shoe- I have owned several.

Feels like high quality. Comfortable and chic. Haven't tested the waterproofing yet.
