The OluKai Wailuku shoes are so cute and come in a lot of great colors, but they run narrow and aren’t available in wide. Although the footbed of the shoe is narrow and you can see my bunions sticking out in the picture, they were comfortable on my bunions because the upper is made of a stretchy mesh material. Also, there are not seams in the bunion area.

If you try these shoes, I normally size up with my tennis shoes but these I wear true to size (size 7.5). The size 8 was too long for my feet but still ran narrow. The tongue of the shoe is not separate and is part of the shoe. The shoe’s mesh upper has a sock design so you don’t have to tie the shoe tight to keep your foot in place, this also makes it easier on the bunions.
The OluKai Wailuku have a cushioned, medium arch support. These shoes are lightweight, washable, and breathable and the mesh is quick drying with leather details.

Although these shoes don’t hurt my bunions, the narrow foot bed makes them uncomfortable for my feet, so I don’t recommend them for those of us with wide feet or bunions.
