Why Are OluKai Sandals The Best Sandals With Arch Support

It’s time to toss those rubber flip flops and upgrade to a quality sandal with good arch support. Trust us, the difference you’ll feel after a day of walking around in supportive sandals is pretty unbelievable. Not to mention the long-term health benefits. So why are OluKai sandals the best sandals for arch support? 

 

Let’s get into it:

 

1. OluKai Arch Support Sandals Use The Wet Sand Principle™

 

It all comes back to our Wet Sand Principle. Our sandals (and all OluKai footwear) are designed to capture the feeling of a barefoot stepping into wet sand. All at once, it cups the heel, fills the arch, and splays the toes—molding to the foot regardless of the shape. The cupped heel offers stability and shock absorption. The anatomically correct arch and contoured footbed provide all-day comfort. And the toe box allows the toes to spread naturally with no restrictions. It’s support from the ground up.

2. Our Arch Support Sandals May Help Alleviate Pain

 

Think of it this way: The arch is where your feet find their strength. The more supported the arch, the more balanced your entire body becomes. That balance can lead to less hip, knee, and back pain, improved posture, and unparalleled comfort. Because we construct all of our sandals like fine footwear and incorporate anatomically correct arch support, customers often report pain alleviation. Some even told us their plantar fasciitis subsided and lessened after switching to OluKai!
