Meet OluKai Paniolo
Translation: Hawaiian Cowgirl
Enunciation: (pah-nee-oh-loh)
In 1833, Mexican vaqueros introduced Hawaiians to cattle management, giving rise to the vibrant paniolo (cowgirl) culture in Hawai‘i. Inspired by this heritage, our Paniolo sandal captures the spirit and aesthetic of these Hawaiian cowgirls with its saddle-inspired stitching and richly oiled leather. They’re perfect for around-town and out-of-town wear. Made for the beach, not the ocean—prolonged contact with water may cause damage.
Key Features:
Premium Materials: Crafted from distressed full-grain leather and lined with soft microfiber for an ultra-comfy, premium fit that feels as good as it looks.
Comfort Design: Features a compression-molded EVA midsole with a full-grain leather footbed cover and leather binding edge, offering all-day comfort and style.
OluKai Craftsmanship: The sandal showcases double-row saddle-inspired micro stitching on the footbed, a handsewn leather toe post, and a cast metal hook logo for distinctive craftsmanship.
