Customer Reviews OluKai Hawai'iloa Manu hope

These fit well and were very cute. I would have been happy to keep them in both the fox and the lava color except for the pull tab on the back of the boot. It is literally a string, about twice the thickness of the red and white twine you’d use to wrap rustic presents, and it is simply glued into holes punched in the back of the boot. It came out at the fist slight tug-definitely would not stand up to a season of even very careful/gentle use. If they remade these in the future with proper, sewn-in leather pull tabs, I would try them again.

I'm always concerned about the width in boots, because I have a bunion that can be painful. The width in these boots was wide enough for comfort. (I tried on two pairs of Sorel ankle boots this season and had to send them both back because they were too narrow.) They are a very cute casual bootie. There is a wool lining that will make them good for winter wear.

Love these shoes. Trendy, versatile, and comfy!

Beautiful shoe! Super comfortable and wonderful warm wool lining. I really loved these shoes and wanted to keep them but the white sole made them a bit too casual for what I was looking for. I wish they would dye the sole to match the shoe. They are really adorable and I was sad to return them.

Love these booties! I wanted a pair of comfy booties to wear with jeans, but didn't want any kind of a 'heel' on them. A friend bought a pair of these and said they were super comfy, so I ordered a pair. Everyone else must love them, too, because just about every online place I found only had any left in one or two of the very small or very large sizes! Finally found them at Zappos. Even then, they didn't have them in the size I normally wear, but did have them in 1/2 size larger, so I went ahead and ordered, figuring if they didn't fit, I could always return them, since Zappos has free shipping and free returns. Surprise! The 1/2 size larger fits perfectly and they are so cute!!!

Overall these are great shoes and pretty stylish. I’m normally an 8 and went with the 8.5 bc I have slightly wide feet and didn’t want them squished. I may have been able to get away with an 8 but the 8.5 was comfy right out of the box. It did take a bit to get used to the upper front rubbing a bit on my ankle.

I bought a half size larger to be able to wear these with thicker socks but my usual 8 would have been ok too. Just maybe with thinner socks. Very comfortable and I got lots of compliments.

So cute, and comfortable. Easy to slip on. I wear a 8.5, sometimes 9. The 9 was the right size, especially with winter (medium weight) socks. The 8.5 was too tight. I ordered this color but then saw the grey, which is so pretty and I preferred based on what I have in my closet/

Cute and comfortable BUT so, so small. I wear a 7 in Olukai flip flops and a 7.5 to 8 in most shoes. My toe was jamming into the front with these without socks. Nice soft leather that I'm sure will conform to your foot easily so I'll go up to an 8.5 if I can find it, but go up quite a bit in sizing on these.

The top rubbed on my ankle and was not comfortable.

These shoes are really the perfect casual slip on bootie. I found the toe box a little snug but once I changed out the insole (I always do this with Superfeet insoles) it was perfect. I also found the fabric to be comfortable and didn’t rub my ankles like some booties.

These were way to tight at my forefoot. I loved the look and feel of them, but had to send them back.

Super comfy and I love the look, but a little small given i'll i'll be wearing them with sox in the Fall. Going to return and get a 1/2 size larger

Oh how I wish these worked for me. I truly love the style of this shoe. However, the toe box was too narrow - as some had said, and the arch support wasn't quite what I needed for my high instep. Disappointed. Oh well.

Lovely, lightweight booties but sizing didn’t work for me. I ordered my normal size 10 but due to my second toe being slightly longer, sizing didn’t work because of the bootie toe shape. If I had ordered the next size up they would have been too large and probably would have been too loose overall.

I liked the style of the boot, but I found them difficult to put on. They seemed a little tight across the toe area, but with wear they might of stretched out a little. I loved the Dusty Olive color. I was disappointed I had to return them.

Love the look of these. The only thing I am not a fan of is the slight wedge forces your toes to the front in which is pretty narrow. I’d recommend a 1/2 larger!

Cute boot and love the waterproof exterior but could feel the pain within minutes bc of how narrow. I do have a wider foot but not that wide. Bummer for me. Had to return.

I usually wear size 7.5 or 8, so first I ordered size 8, and it was way too small. My toe pushed against the end of the shoe. So I sent that back and ordered 8 1/2, and there wasn’t much difference. My toe still touched the end of the shoe. So I sent those back. But I like the style and the color and decided to give it another try. I found the shoe comfortable in a size 9. I have never worn a size 9 in any other shoe in my life. So my conclusion is these shoes run very, very small.

I love these shoes! Very comfortable and true to size. I got the black and often wear them with leggings. They’re comfortable even without socks, which I typically never do with shoes but it works with these. I wish they made them with black soles as well so it would be solid black, but these work. My only gripe is that when you do wear socks with these they bunch up around your heel. I have some Ondo socks that wont bunch or I just wear them without socks.

Finally, I have found an ankle boot that I can live with! Didn't want a dressy boot or a chunky boot. Look great with joggers when I don't want to wear athletic shoes. Changes the whole look! These are comfortable, good-looking and so easy to put on and take off - even with thicker socks.

For me, I would like to have a bit more arch support to make these more suitable for all day wear. I'd be inclined to say they are more slight-moderate arch support, but love the style.

soft & stylish, my go to shoe for fall & warmer winter days

Very comfortable!
