Columbia Montrail Women's Molokini II Recovery Sandal

I am a flip-flop junkie. But after a car accident a few years ago and a subsequent knee surgery, I needed to find flip-flops that offered better support and comfort.These are they! Other than Orthaheel's (which I also love, but can sometimes feel harder and thus, are a little less great for all-day wear) these are the best supportive and stable flip-flops Iv'e found! They're great!When you get them, you stick them in your oven at a low temperature (225, I think?) for 3 minutes. Then you stand in them them for a few more minutes and voila! they are molded to your feet.If they get wet, the soles quickly dry off. The toe post is comfy and sturdy. The bottom is very stable with great traction.I personally have no "cons" to list for these guys. They're perfect for me!

I have plantar faciitis and these sandals are wonderful! They have great support and are very comfortable. They are rather chunkey but I dont mind because I can wear them without pain. I have been wearing them pretty much all day every day with few exceptions since getting them and I love them!

I discovered Montrail flip flops a year ago, and boy am I glad! I didn't know shoes could be this comfortable! My first pair was the Lithia (or Lithia Loop) style. I have worn them daily for the last year. The Lithia runs big. I am a pretty true size 8, and I wear a 7 in the Lithia style. I was nervous about trying the Molokini because I wasn't sure which size to order. I listened to the other reviewers about how they run smaller so I ordered my regular size 8 instead of a 7 like I had planned. (Usually the same brand runs small, big, or true to size across the board regardless of the style) The 8's are perfect. Glad I read the reviews. In fact, I would consider them to run a little small because even the 8's are snug, but I know they will stretch out like my other pair. I have included a photo of the Molokini II in size 8 next to my old Lithia style in size 7.I can't say enough about the arch support in these flip flops! It's incredible. I have Keen, Merrell, and other brands, but none compare to the Montrail's comfort and arch support. If I never wear another shoe other than these, that would be fine with me. I don't have foot problems per say, I just appreciate a good shoe with good support and comfort.They might seem a little bulky and/or heavy for a flip flop, but I encourage you to just get used to it and break them in. Once you do, you'll love them and never want to wear anything else. They are pricey, but I have managed to find both my pairs new for $25 and $30 each. (first pair from Marshall's, second pair here on Amazon) I will continue to scour websites for the same kind of deal each year since I wear them so often.UPDATE! Nearly 2 months later since writing this review....While looking closely at my flip flops today I noticed the tiny inside tag of the shoes says size 7!! I ordered an "8", and the box they came in also said size 8. However the shoes themselves say 7! So now I guess you can disregard everything I said about the size running on the small size. They actually run large!! I am a true 8, and these 7's are perfect just like my other style. Happy accident I guess! ORDER 1 SIZE SMALLER! They stretch!!

I love these flip flops. I live in Florida and I NEED comfortable and supportive flip flops I can wear all day. However, I normally wear a size 9. I bought these in a size 9 and they they fit a little loose at first, but as my feet molded the sandal, they became looser. Since they don't sell them in 1/2 sizes, I ordered an 8 the next time. The 8 was definitely tight at first, but after molding them to my feet (per the directions) and wearing them around for a few days, they fit perfect. So I would advise ordering a 1/2 size or even a full size smaller than what you would normally wear. I need both arch support and stability due to overpronation and these sandals have been an absolute treasure to find. They also last forever and have great traction, so you never have to worry about slipping around on wet surfaces.

I have other Molokini flip flops and I normally wear a size 6-1/2 and order them in a size 6 and they are perfect, but this style ran small so would go up a size vs down a size like the others. I have returned them for credit, they are a nice company to work with there it was a no hassle return, so hoping my refund doesn't take too long :) They are cute, it is a cloth strap unlike the others that I own.

I give them credit for the shaping and support and that my feet have stopped hurting. That is priceless. I received them yesterday morning and have been wearing them only around the house these last two days. However if I wasn't healing from an unrelated surgery and my feet were not hurting, I would probably mail them back. The molding foam under the foot...Not the best material. I did not receive any instructions in the box or packaging about placing them in the oven as some reviews have Said. I think if I did they wouldn't make it. But. My feet. Don't. Hurt. My only concern is how long this foam is going to last before it flattens out and or cracks as it has started cracking. Wish the material was better for the mold, for the foot mold is super supportive. But the foam and shoe material isn't worth $60. For sizing. I'm normally a 7.5. And if I really like a cute shoe I can fit a 7 maybe. So I went with the 7 and it was perfect. 5 stars for support. Technically 1 star for quality. Disappointed. But. It's my 1st supportive shoe. Not used to materials. But expected better for my $60.

These are great all-day sandals. I have plantar fasciitis from time to time and find that when I'm wearing these all day, I have no problem. They are so comfortable. I bought a pair of size 8s a couple of years ago and decided to get another pair but found that the new 8s were too small and I had to send them back. I got a size 9 and they fit like my old 8s. So, be advised to go a size larger now. Highly recommended!

Have been wearing this brand for YEARS, only shoe that I have found to have the perfect arch support that I need (my feet pronate). Comfortable right out of the box. These shoes do run big, so I have learned to order a size smaller than what I normally wear and they are a perfect fit!!!!
