First, this is my second pair of OluKai slip-ons. I got the first pair on vacation when my sneakers turned out to be duds and left my feet covered in blisters, so I needed something that breathes and would keep me comfy. The shoes ARE very comfortable and adapt to your foot quickly without a need for break-in time. However, there are a few issues. First, while the flap on the back that allows this to be a full shoe or a slip-on is great in theory, after a short period of time, I found that the flap weakens and almost always stays down, and after six months of light wear I've started to "lose" a shoe when walking, or if I hit my foot on something while walking. Kind of annoying and makes me nervous to wear them driving. On warm days, my outside toes also start to get a little irritated from rubbing. So that's one star.

The other star is because I ordered this pair and another for the upcoming warm weather. The other looks like a sea green/stormy teal, but when it arrived it looks more like a slate blue--no green to the color whatsoever, and basically looks like a mid-range jean color, not my cup of tea. The charcoal grey of this pair is OK, but the pattern color isn't as vibrant as in the image so it kind of blends with the charcoal a bit and gets lost.
