1. Stylish and Sophisticated Design

Traditional recovery sandals often had a reputation for prioritizing function over style, resulting in rather plain designs. However, the "OOmega" retains the comfort and functionality of OOFOS popular OOlala model while upgrading to a platform sole for an enhanced, style-boosting effect.
Despite its simple overall design, the glossy finish on the thong strap adds a touch of elegance, making it an extremely versatile item that pairs easily with a wide range of styles.

2. Recovery Benefits with OOfoam™

Like other OOFOS products, the OOmega features OOFOS proprietary OOfoam™. This high-impact absorption material helps reduce stress on the feet, knees, and lower back, making it ideal for alleviating fatigue after sports activities or long periods of walking.
Thanks to its fatigue-reducing properties even after extended wear, it's perfect not only for casual outings like shopping but also for outdoor festivals, camping trips, and other leisure activities. It is even recommended in medical and rehabilitation settings, earning high praise for both its practicality and health benefits.

3. Arch Support That Supports the Sole

The OOmega is designed with arch support that follows the natural curve of the entire sole. By firmly holding the arch area, it helps maintain overall body balance and reduces the buildup of fatigue.
It offers a unique recovery feel that typical running shoes or sneakers cannot provide, and many users find it hard to part with once they experience it.

OOFOS - OOmega - Sizing Review

Women's Staff Fitting Size

Usual Shoe Size: 23.5cm
(Reference: adidas STAN SMITH size)
Instep Height: Normal
Foot Width: Normal
Toe Fit: Normal
Heel Space: Normal
Worn Size: 24cm(M5/W7)

Staff Review

  • Choosing your usual size, or going half a size up (e.g., from 23.5cm to 24cm), resulted in a perfect fit.
  • Since the opening is relatively narrow in both width and height, we recommend considering one size up if you have wide feet or a high instep.
  • If you plan to wear regular-thickness socks, your usual size should still be fine.
  • For thicker autumn/winter socks, we recommend sizing up by one size.

Easy Maintenance for Long-Lasting Comfort

Introducing OOFOS OOmega! - OOFOS - OOmega - Maintenance 1-002

OOFOS products use materials that are relatively resistant to water and dirt. However, performing regular maintenance will allow you to enjoy them comfortably for even longer.
- Daily Cleaning: After use, if sand or mud is attached, lightly rinse with water or wipe off with a damp cloth.
- Using a Washing Machine: Depending on the model, many OOFOS products can be machine-washed, making maintenance easy and hassle-free.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight and High Temperatures: Since the material is prone to deformation, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or drying with a hairdryer. Ideally, air dry in a well-ventilated, shaded area.

By performing these simple maintenance steps, you can enjoy a long-lasting relationship with your precious recovery sandals.


If you're unsure about which size to choose, we recommend referring to the OOFOS Size Guide with staff reviews, which includes actual measurements of standard models.
