Are OOFOS meant to be worn all day? ›
If you are wearing your pair of OOFOS all day, every day, they may begin to wear out more quickly than a pair of shoes that you wear only a couple of times a week for a few hours at a time. You may also see wear in certain areas quicker than others because of your natural walking gait.

We recommend replacing your OOFOS approximately as often as you replace your running shoes, but that is dependent on how often you wear them. Let the tread be your guide. We do find that most customers will change out their OOFOS around every 6-8 months or when the treads on the bottom of the shoe start to wear down.

Can you walk long distances in OOFOS? ›
In fact, OOFOS' proprietary foam (unsurprisingly called OOfoam) absorbs 37 percent more impact than the materials used in traditional footwear, according to the brand. And it's not a joke: I recently wore the sneakers on a three-plus-mile walk on gravel trails, concrete sidewalks, and dirt paths.
The Croc felt far harsher and firmer than the Oofos and had far less bounce when walking. I did a bit of a fingernail midsole push test and my sense is that the proprietary OOfoam has more rebound/give back that regular running shoe foam or the Crocs. The arch support is apparent and pleasant on my high arch feet.
