Olukai Puawe, a Recovery Sandal Built for Women
The Puawe is Olukai's recovery-focused women's sandal, designed to reduce load and help you recover faster after a day of activity. Extra puffy straps and squishy foam cushioning work together to increase circulation, reduce load, and surround your feet in comfort, so you can slide them on for relief right after you are done for the day.
Straps, Footbed, and Outsole
The straps are made from water-friendly textured synthetic material lined with a soft jersey knit for added softness against the skin. The footbed itself is a spongy PU foam that delivers immediate step-in comfort while still maintaining the anatomical arch for long-lasting support underfoot. The outsole design draws from kapa line artwork and is built with Olukai's non-marking Wet Grip Rubber, and the straps are lined with soft, recycled materials to round out a lightweight, cushioned sandal.
Who the Puawe Is For
This sandal suits anyone who wants a comfortable, easy slide-on option to change into after time at the beach, on the boat, or in the water, when a supportive footbed and step-in cushioning matter more than a structured shoe. The Wet Grip outsole also makes it a practical choice for a pool deck or rinse station.
How to Wear and Care for the Puawe
Like other slide-on recovery sandals, the Puawe goes on bare feet and relies on the strap for fit rather than a buckle. Rinse the straps and footbed with fresh water after exposure to saltwater or chlorine, and let the sandal air dry fully before storing to keep the foam and synthetic straps in good shape over time.
Olukai's Brand Philosophy
