Fits very well, close to the foot. It’s even possible to jog in them for short periods! Supportive arch and good heel cushion. I ordered the brown/gum version, and it is a darker brown than the pictures led me to believe. The gum part also disappears easily when you see the shoe in person. Basically just looks dark brown. Still works for me though.

Your service and pricing were both superior to other suppliers. The Reef brand is the most comfortable flip-flop I've ever worn. They conform to your foot immediately. They even behave well on the non-skid surfaces of my sailboat, in fact, better than some of my "so-called" boat shoes!

I really like these flip flops. Since I have wide feet, I often do better with men’s shoes. I usually wear men’s size 6, that size is often difficult to find. I first ordered the "6", but they were too small. The "7" is perfect… very comfortable and required no "break-in" time with the toe strap. I want to wear them all the time.

I could never wear sandals with the toe thong, always was way to annoying and hurt my toes. Then my friend’s mom got me a pair of these sandals for my 21st birthday 3 years ago. My favorite sandal ever! My old ones are wearing out, so I decided to buy another pair. Stock up now because as you can see, the Fanning 2 is here. Awesome sandal, awesome comfort, always have a bottle opener, awesome looks. Only problems that are minor; they can absorb smell from sweaty feet at times, can squeak when your feet are wet while walking, fade in the foot bed a little too quickly. I still love these sandals, I look forward to summer now just so I can break them out again.

Great flip flops - they have a little more support than regular flip flops and look good.

The most comfortable sandals I have ever owned and I've owned more than a few over 59 years...My only concern is the ornamentation on the top, bottom, and sides. It seems a bit over-the-top.

Great Sandal, Great Service!
Best fitting thong sandal I've slid my foot in. Shipping was free. I ordered the sandals Friday night and had them here Monday afternoon! Couldn't believe the tracking info! I usually wear a size 13 in adidas and Nike shoes, but I saw the feedback on Zappos' page where 60% of people said they run a half size large and got a 12. Fits great. Now I just need to see if the built-in bottle opener in the bottom of the sandal works!

Could use cushioning!
They look great, but they could be a lot more comfortable. The footbed has very little cushioning.

Love Em -
Great sandals!!! I bought the Fannings and have worn them every day since. Very soft feel and super comfortable. I read other reviews about them running big in size; I have to say that they were wrong. I am an 11 1/2 -12 and decided to order an 11 after reading other reviews. They were too small so I returned them and got the 12's and they were perfect. By the way, Zappos return policy is awesome; my new sandals came within 2 days.

2nd pair -
I bought these sandals for my husband about 4 yrs ago. One of our dogs loved the sandals so much he tore them up. My husband was so upset because they were his favorite sandals. I got on the internet to see if I could find the same ones and I found them on Zappos. I had to buy them for him. He was so happy when he saw them one day after work.

Ultimate flip flop -
The cushion sole makes it a flip flop you can wear all day. I was just in Florida and walked the entire beach (about 2 miles) in them with no problems at all. All the different colors make it hard to pick just one. Zappos has the best customer service ever...I tell everybody about this website.

Reef's Fanning - the best!
This is my second pair of these. They are so great; they "mold" to your foot and provide support and cushioning. Nice look, too. I highly recommend them to anyone who likes to live in flip-flops.

Great sandal -
This is the third pair of Reef's I have owned. The first had the small flask in the heels. Not recommended, they tend to break and then you lose some of the support. The Fannings are awesome, and I will buy them again when these wear out (actually, I bought another pair and now have two as you gotta have two pair, right?) Only thing disappointing about the sandal was the color does not appear as bright as in the Zappos view of the sandal. But overall, very, very pleased.
