Does the OluKai Nalu Slide run true to size?

Many buyers say it runs small and recommend sizing up. If you are between sizes or have a wide foot, go up a size.

Is the Nalu Slide good for wide feet?

The adjustable strap helps, but buyers with 2–3E feet report it is too narrow. It is listed as a normal width.

The upper is water-resistant and the lining is quick-drying, but it is a sandal, not a waterproof shoe. It handles splashes and wet sand well.

What is the footbed made of?

It uses an ICEVA drop-in footbed with an anatomical compression-molded EVA midsole. The outsole is non-marking rubber, lugged and siped for traction.

Is $84.99 a good price for the Nalu Slide?

That is the best new price among 10 stores as of November 7, 2026. OluKai slides typically sell in the $80–$100 range, so it is a fair price rather than a deep discount.

Can I wear the Nalu Slide in water?

Yes, for beach and pool use. The strap is water-resistant and the jersey knit lining dries quickly, and the rubber outsole grips wet surfaces.
