What makes the perfect pair of sandals?
They should be supportive, yet comfortable. They should be durable, yet affordable. They should be functional with a keen sense of style. And above all, they should keep your feet pain-free.
Hawaiian Jellys captures the essence of the Hawaiian lifestyle while being purpose-built to alleviate the foot pain that comes with wearing traditional sandals. Perfect for feet of all ages, Hawaiian Jellys comes in a range of attractive designs and styles, and just as attractively priced.
We’ve created happy customers and happy feet around the world with our flagship product, the Hawaiian Jellys Slip…aaahs. Now we’re ready to build on that success by introducing our all new, extended line of Hawaiian Jellys footwear to the masses.
Step inside Hawaiian Jellys: where comfort starts from the ground up.
What’s one of the first things that everyone does when they get home?
They take off their shoes! Whether it’s going barefoot or changing into a pair of slippers or flip flops, it feels great to let our feet breathe after a long day being confined.
The downside? Going barefoot or wearing traditional slippers or flip flops lacks essential arch, heel, and ball support on the foot, and is associated with a number of painful health problems, including:
Plantar fasciitis sufferers especially — those experiencing pain in the heel or bottom of the foot — represent a massive and massively underserved market. With 700 million sufferers worldwide, there are few footwear solutions available that are affordable, effective, and look good.
That’s why we created Hawaiian Jellys. Our line of innovative footwear strikes a balance between what looks good and what actually is good for your feet.
Hawaiian Jellys addresses foot-related health problems while also delivering ultimate comfort and superior orthotic support and protection.
How? By combining the best in advanced orthotics, footwell design, silicone jelly, state-of-the-art shock absorbing air system under the heel, and more!
Hawaiian Jellys prides itself on being a wholly unconventional type of footwear — one that feels incredible to wear while ensuring that your feet stay in proper alignment.
Our Signature Product
With our newly redesigned signature product — the Hawaiian Jellys “Convertible” Slip…aaahs — we have created the world’s first orthotic sandal that can be worn comfortably year round.
Our customers have the freedom to go “top on” or “topless”, a key differentiator that’s also perfect for both leisure indoors and everyday use.
Our “Convertible” Toppers
Toppers come free with each pair but will also be sold in a wide variety of materials, colors, logos, themes, and holiday additions to give our customers multiple customization options.

Kid’s JellyBugs™
We put our same orthotics benefits in child’s size to help young feet grow and form correctly while also being fun to wear! We added a hidden magnet in the center of the vamp that allows kids to attach an entire line of fun, collectible Jellybug collectibles to the front of their sandals and switch them out whenever they want. Up next, we’ll introduce an interactive magnetic board game to use with their Jellybugs.
Collectibles include:
Chinese Slip…aaahs
A pared-down version of our classic catered to the more than one billion Chinese consumer market.
We’ve gained a ton of momentum since we started Hawaiian Jellys back in 2011, and 2016 is slated to be our best year yet as we prepare to take our all new product line to people all over the world. Here’s a look at some of our biggest and most noteworthy traction points to date.
Cashflow Positive
We have remained debt free the 5 years we have been in business while branding our products and gaining assets including inventory, tools, IP, trademarks, patents, designs, furnishings, and office space.
Ecommerce Sales
In our first twelve months of operation, we generated approximately $400,000 in sales through our website.
Global Demand
We have sold in more than 20 countries and are expanding rapidly!
Past Private Label Contracts
In 2015 we were approved and signed with the NFL to produce our signature Hawaiian Jellys Slip…aaahs™ with NFL team logos.
Approved Vendor
After nearly two years of product testing we became an approved vendor by Costco worldwide (one of only 4000 approved vendors). We delivered over 80,000 pair to them in September, 2015, and are also an approved vendor at ShoeBuy, Zulily, Amazon, FootSmart, Orthopedic Surgeons’ medical offices and SkyMall. We were also featured on the cover of SkyMall for Delta.
Manufacturing & Distribution
We’ve manufactured in China for the last 3 years and we handle distribution in-house and with 3PL logistics companies. We just opened offices and distribution facilities in Shenzhen, China to sell our products through Taobao — four times the size of Ebay and Amazon combined.
Brand New Headquarters
We recently relocated our headquarters from Hawaii to Colorado, and intend to repatriate a large portion of product manufacturing from China during 2017-2018. This will result in lower costs, allow us to maintain more production control, and create more than 250 new American jobs.
