Built for the Shore, Ready for the Street
Named after the south shore of O'ahu, the OluKai Southshore sandal is built for the kind of day that starts at the water's edge and keeps going long after you've left the beach. Waterproof full-grain leather straps stand up to salt water and sun without stiffening or cracking, while a Wet Grip Rubber® outsole delivers reliable traction on wet sand, pool decks, and slick pavement. The result is a thong sandal that genuinely transitions from shoreline to town without compromise.
Key Features
Waterproof Full-Grain Leather Upper
The straps are constructed from full-grain leather treated to resist water. Full-grain is the highest quality cut of hide, retaining the natural grain structure for durability and a supple feel that breaks in with wear rather than breaking down.
Wet Grip Rubber® Outsole
OluKai's proprietary Wet Grip Rubber® compound is engineered specifically for traction on wet and slippery surfaces. Whether you're stepping off a boat, crossing a wet dock, or walking through a summer rain shower, the outsole maintains grip where generic rubber would slide.
Soft Contoured Footbed
The footbed is cushioned and shaped to support the natural contour of the foot, making all-day wear genuinely comfortable. The drop-in construction allows the foot to settle into the sandal rather than perching on a flat platform.
The OluKai Philosophy
OluKai was founded on the belief that Aloha is not a place, it is a way of moving through the world. Every pair of Southshore sandals reflects that philosophy: quality materials, handcrafted details inspired by Hawaiian island culture, and a design that performs in the ocean environment it was made for. The brand's Anywhere Aloha commitment means the same spirit that shaped these sandals on the shores of O'ahu travels with you wherever you go.
Wear and Care
The waterproof leather construction makes the Southshore easy to maintain. Rinse with fresh water after salt water exposure and allow to air dry away from direct heat. The leather will condition naturally with wear; a light leather conditioner applied occasionally will extend the life of the straps and preserve their supple feel.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are OluKai Southshore sandals waterproof?
- Yes. The straps are made from waterproof full-grain leather designed to resist salt water and moisture without stiffening. The Wet Grip Rubber® outsole also performs on wet surfaces, making the Southshore a practical choice for beach, pool, and water activities.
- What is Wet Grip Rubber on OluKai sandals?
- Wet Grip Rubber® is OluKai's proprietary outsole compound engineered to maintain traction on wet and slippery surfaces such as wet sand, boat decks, and pool surrounds, where standard rubber soles can slip.
- How do OluKai Southshore sandals fit?
- The Southshore features a thong-style upper with a contoured soft footbed. OluKai footwear generally runs true to size. If you are between sizes, sizing up is commonly recommended for sandals to ensure the footbed supports the full length of the foot.
- Can I wear OluKai Southshore sandals in the ocean?
- Yes. The waterproof leather straps and Wet Grip Rubber® outsole are both designed for wet conditions including salt water. Rinse with fresh water after ocean use and air dry to keep the leather in good condition.
- What is the difference between a casual sandal and the OluKai Southshore?
- The Southshore sets itself apart with waterproof full-grain leather construction and a purpose-built Wet Grip Rubber® outsole. Most casual sandals use synthetic uppers and standard rubber that can slip when wet or degrade quickly with salt water exposure. The Southshore is engineered specifically for coastal environments while remaining refined enough for everyday wear.

- How do I care for the leather on OluKai Southshore sandals?
