OLUKAI Paniolo Women's Leather Flip-Flop Sandals

The Paniolo sandal, a classic leather footwear option, has a rich heritage that can be traced back to the 1800s when Mexican vaqueros (cowboys) introduced cattle management techniques to the Hawaiians. This has since given rise to the paniolo (cowgirl) culture in Hawai'i, which the Paniolo sandal proudly celebrates with its hand-sewn, saddle-inspired stitching and deeply oiled leather.

Designed for both around-town and out-of-town wear, the Paniolo sandal combines the comfort and style of beach sandals, flip-flops, and slides. Crafted with premium, distressed full-grain leather and a soft microfiber lining, these shoes offer an ultra-comfortable and premium fit. However, it's important to note that prolonged contact with water may cause damage, so they are better suited for the beach than the ocean.

The Paniolo's compression-molded EVA midsole, premium full-grain leather footbed cover, and leather binding edge provide all-day comfort and style. The non-marking 'Wet Grip' rubber outsole, featuring a fish scale-inspired design, adds traction and durability to the shoe.

Available in women's sizes 5 to 11, the Paniolo sandal is a lightweight and stylish option that is backed by a one-year warranty against manufacturer's defects, including issues such as frayed or loose stitching and straps pulling out where soles are not excessively worn.

Olukai, the brand behind the Paniolo, also offers a range of other footwear options, including the Ho'opio Leather, Ohana, Honu, and Pehuea Li sandals, each with its own unique features and style. These products are designed to cater to different preferences and needs, ensuring that there is a suitable Olukai sandal for every customer.

Customer reviews for the Paniolo and other Olukai products are overwhelmingly positive, with high ratings and praise for the comfort, quality, and overall style of the footwear. This speaks to the brand's commitment to crafting durable and fashionable sandals that can withstand the demands of everyday wear and outdoor activities.
