Hawaii-based brand OluKai created the new Kahu Lace sneakers, combining the brand's classic style and detailing with a new unbeatable comfort.
Made to be the perfect shoe for adventure seekers and beachgoers, the shoes have a dual-density footbed with a gel insert to stay comfortable all day. Using an all-weather, non-marking outsole, the shoes offer extra traction to stick on all wet surfaces. The back of the shoe features a unique drop-in heel, giving consumers the ability to wear them as a sneaker or slip-on.
Each part of OluKai's new Kahu Lace sneakers are removable and easily washed to ensure a long-lasting product, while still offering a modern style made to match with any summer outfit.
