Answered Prayers!

"My mom has had multiple foot and knee surgeries in the past few years, and always feels off balance. When she tried on these shoes for the first time in years, she felt balanced. She instantly started crying and praising God; she thought it was a goal that may no longer be attainable. It was her birthday gift, and she immediately bought another one for herself and my stepdad. Oh, how we thank you!"

Melissa M. (5/5)

Awesome and Comfortable Shoes

"I purchased OOmy Zen to knock around in this summer post run or long walk. Liked them so much when they arrived, I went back and bought the same shoe in Navy Blue. The shoes are light weight and very comfortable, I plan to take them to Europe in the Fall. Had a couple friends ask me about them and both went online to purchase them."

I really love my new

"I really love my new Ooofos. So far they are the most comfortable shoes that I have ever worn. Great to ease my Plantar Fasciitis pain. I plan to order another color soon. My Podiatrist recommended that I try Oofos and I am telling all of my friends and family about them. I wish that the Zen were available in a brown or tan color. I am extremely satisfied. Thanks"

Mark G. (5/5)

Swollen Ankle

"Unfortunately, the design of the shoes does not provide sufficient room for my swollen ankle. Consequently, my whole foot feels sore after wearing the shoes for only a few hours. I love all my previously purchased Oofos, however, the design of this shoe does not work for me."

bjcrossley1 (3/5)

Just another cheap shoe w/a big price!

"For shoes this expensive, they didn’t even last 6 months. My husband is a chef and works indoors and the soles have completely worn down to the point that they are too slick to walk on around a kitchen. We were told these shoes were incredible and well worth the money. NOT TRUE!!!"

Jenny C. (1/5)

Perfect summer shoe

"My husband wondered why I hadn’t already bought him a pair of these. He loves them. So easy to just slide on and are great with shorts or jeans. He has many oofo flip flops but not shoes. Plans to get the leather slide this fall. Can’t go wrong with any oofo shoe or sandal."

Susie H. (5/5)

Helping foot pain

"I wear a women's size 14N. I can rarely find that, so usually make do with men's or 'unisex' shoes. These are never comfortable. A few years ago I moved into an apartment built on a slab, and my feet have gotten progressively more painful since then. I took a chance and ordered these. First, they fit me remarkably well for a man's shoe. More importantly, my foot pain actually seems to be gradually going away. They are comfortable enough for me to wear them all day."

ANGELA T. (5/5)

Probably my last Oofa Purchase

"The foot hole is so small & so tight it literally makes them unwearable. If someone orders a size twelve, we should assume they have a size twelve foot, no? Yet the hole is for, I don't know, a size six foot? It's ridiculous. I literally cut it off with scissors. I wish I would have just returned them instead. Nothing about these shoes are slip in. . . which was the entire reason I got them. I can't slip them on at all. In fact, they're more of a hassle to put on than normal shoes because of the awkwardly tiny shoe hole where you have to bring your foot into them at an awkward angle. I loved the flip-flops that I had gotten previously from this company, so I gave them the benefit of the doubt & was a return costumer when I needed new, easy shoes for work. I should have went with Hey Dude or Hoka. The comfort & ease is just not there."

Joshua C. (2/5)

Great shoe!!!

"These shoes are the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn. They have become my go-tos for work and shopping excursions. I was asked about them one day on the elevator at work, and a few weeks later the gentleman came to me and said, “These are the best shoes of the year. ” Love ‘em!!!!!"

Walter G. (5/5)

"comfortable, affordable - great as I am on my feet most of the day for work."
