Olukai Women's Leather "Paniolo" Sandals- Natural

Saddle Up for Cowgirl Comfort in Paniolo Sandals

In Hawaiian, paniolo (pah-nee-oh-loh) means " cowgirl or cowboy". In 1833, King Kamehameha III brought Mexican Vaqueros to the Islands to teach native Hawaiians how to raise cattle. These leather sandals are an homage to the paniolo. Their saddle-inspired stitching and  oiled leather stem from the paniolo aesthetic. They're made with non-marking rubber soles with fish-scale-inspired designs to provide sure traction. Wear them in town, outside in nature, or on the beach, but not in the water.
