Procedures that can turn back the clock, rejuvenate and improve your appearance include the QuickLift,™ Traditional Face/Necklift, Eyelid Lift, Brow Lift, Facial Resurfacing (Laser and Chemical Peels), Fat Removal, and Fat Grafting.


QUICKLIFT:
The QuickLift™ is a revolutionary procedure that tightens loose skin in the cheeks, jaw line, and neck in a less invasive way. The procedure, first performed in California by Dr. Alexander in 2004, delivers impressive results similar to a traditional facelift with fewer complications and a quicker recovery. Alexander Cosmetic Surgery is the only practice in San Diego licensed to perform the QuickLift.™.

FAQ's:

Q. Why does OluKai name each of their products Polynesian words?

A. The Polynesian culture is an oral history, passed along through storytelling. Naming our products with Hawaiian words is our small way of spreading and preserving the culture for future generations.

Q. How do I wash/care for my OluKai footwear?

A. For Mauka Collection (leather) footwear:


  • To treat day-to-day wear for lighter colored leathers, nubuck, and suede we recommend using nubuck cleaner and conditioner. For full grain leather we recommend cleaning with saddle soap or leather cleaner and conditioner. You can find these products at most footwear dealers and/or shoe repair shops.


A. For Makai Collection (synthetic) footwear:

  • We recommend cleaning with mild soap and cold water. To remove excess dirt or spot clean, use a stiff brush or soft cloth. Synthetic sandals may be cleaned in your washing machine using mild soap and cold-water temperature setting.

  • After cleaning let your shoes or sandals air dry away from heat.




Q. Do you have a guarantee on your footwear?

A. Yes, OluKai footwear is guaranteed against manufacturer's defects for one year from the date of purchase. Footwear covered by the OluKai guarantee will be replaced at OluKai's discretion.



The following defects are covered by the OluKai guarantee:

  • Straps pulling out where soles are not excessively worn

  • Delaminating of sole layers


  • Frayed or loose stitching on uppers, footbeds or logos


What's not covered:

  • Deterioration from water abuse

  • Outsole wearing out or worn through

Q. How do I return or exchange products purchased from OluKai.com?


A. When returning products purchased from OluKai directly, please refer to our Return Policy. For more info click here

Q. If I wear a half size in shoes, how should I size my OluKai sandals?

A. There are a couple of aspects to consider when deciding to size up or down. First, does the anatomically correct footbed fit your arch? Try on both larger and smaller sizes to see which arch size matches your arch the best. If they both feel fine, size up if you prefer some wiggle room, or down if you prefer a snug fit.

Q. What do I do if my sandals or shoes are damaged/defective?


A. If your sandals or shoes are covered under warranty, please return to the location at which you purchased them. The retailer should be able to replace the damaged footwear. Please remember to bring your receipt.
If the sandals or shoes were purchased on vacation or in a different location then where you live, and they are covered under warranty, please email us at info@olukai.com along with an explanation and photo of the damage or defect.

Q. How do I find out where my nearest OluKai distributor is?

A. Use our store locator to find a retailer near you. (click here)


Q. Are OluKai leather sandals and shoes waterproof?

A. OluKai leather sandals and shoes are water-resistant, not waterproof.

Q. Why are OluKai sandals and shoes so comfortable?

A. It’s a combination of premium materials and contoured shapes that form the structure of OluKai. At the core of all our footwear is our anatomical footbed; a biomechanically engineered shape that supports and positions your entire foot naturally, allowing it to move through the stride comfortably and correctly. Our deep heel contour centers, aligns, and supports the foot.

Q. How does OluKai reduce its environmental footprint?


A. We use natural latex in our gum rubbers, 30% recycled material in all our outsoles, and 100% recycled material in our packaging. We source all of our leathers exclusively from environmentally conscious ISO-14001 certified tanneries. We are exploring water-based glues, however at this time the sub-par bond durability outweighs the benefits. We will make the switch once the bonding strength improves. We consider making high-quality, long-lasting footwear as one way to reduce our environmental footprint.

Q. Where are OluKai sandals and shoes made?

A. OluKai footwear is designed in the United States and manufactured in China. We choose our manufacturing facilities based on the extremely high skill, technology, craftsmanship, and technical know-how required to build our footwear. At this time, the best footwear factories in the world are located in China.



We work directly with our factories, without sourcing agents or sourcing groups. Our founders and senior management personally inspect our factory partners up to six times a year. This includes conducting a comprehensive responsibility review every quarter to assess people, health, safety, attitude, and environment.
