Extraordinarily comfortable and durable flip flops. I put these through a brutal break-in and they performed fantastically. The drainage system is a must have if you're going anywhere near water. And the shocks aren't for show, those things work. Best flip flops I have ever owned.

I have over 20 pairs of Reef flip flops including Fannings, Vision, Phantoms and HTs and my new X-S-1s are by far the most comfortable, durable and best looking of all of them. The X-S-1s fit your feet like a glove and I can't wait to put them on every day. Will be ordering more pairs of these in the future.

This sandal is by far the most comfortable I have owned. Reef makes great products and I have owed several of the models with the shock air bubble or pocket in the rear and decided to try these out. I noticed a difference right away and will keep buying these over the air models any day. You won't be disappointed.

About Reef
The now internationally recognized company has always blended the cool and casual attitude of the beach with a commitment to nurturing the lifestyle that follows. At the core of the Reef are authentic, surf inspired products that have been worn by millions around the world since the company originated in 1984. Professional surf riders like Rob Machado, Mick Fanning, Ben Bourgeois, and Jay Thompson continue to spread the word about Reef by traveling the world in search of the best waves in some of the most beautiful and remote spots on earth, living out a fantasy that few ever experience firsthand. Reef is all about finding those spots and savoring every moment of beautiful surf and sand.
Reef sandals have stood the test of time since two brothers from Argentina founded the company. Backed by classics, sandals like the Reef Fanning and the Reef Leather Smoothy, the revered surf company continues to deliver the sandals that help drive the sport and lifestyle forward. Reef doesn’t slouch on women’s styles, either. Reef flip-flops are easy to step into like the Ginger 2-Pair Variety Pack, and if you need an extra lift with each step, then the Butter has all that and more. And if you need some traditional Reef sandal style, then the easy comfort of the Wispy or Slap will keep you covered on the beach, boardwalk, or for those everyday adventures under the sun. Not limited to just sandals, Reef has expanded to an entire lifestyle incorporating Reef clothes, including shirts, hoodies, shorts, dresses, and a variety of Reef swimsuits and Reef boardshorts.
Times have changed, but Reef is driven by the same constant – they’re surfers at heart, drawing influences from a world filled with beaches, waves, and surf. They still stand for the same things that the company was founded on by Fernando and Santi back in 1984 – a love of the sport and the lifestyle that was born out of it. To this day, Reef remains a core surf company with their revered collection of Reef sandals. With authentic and innovative products intended to nurture an incredibly fortunate lifestyle that involves surf, sensuality and a life filled with happiness, Reef and their beloved collection of Reef sandals will continue to thrive, no matter how high that next wave may be.

These are by far the most comfortable Reef sandals (or any other brand) I own. The heel flexes gives way just enough to adsorb the impact exerted on it with every step. I'm 245lbs and they maintain there form perfectly when I stand on them. Felt so good I bought a second pair. They look great and feel great, what more can you ask from a flip flop? If Reef keeps making sandals like this, they'll have a customer for life.

Great buy, Church Key doesn't work well though. But I don't drink so no problem! Blessings.

I found these to be much harder to break in than another pair of lower cost Reef flops that I own. They are comfortable, but eat my toes up. Just be prepared to have a break in period. I wear an 8.5 and the 9 was just right.
Brands I'd also recommend: teva, rainbow

5 stars for Reef sandals and 6 stars for Zappos. The sandals are great with cushion sole and shock absorbing midsole. Having said that, it is hard to justify this much for footwear that doesn't cover the entire foot.

5 stars for Reef sandals and 6 stars for Zappos. Having worked for Southwest Airlines, I know what Positively Outrageous Customer Service looks like. Zappos knows how to seduce and cherish their customers. They make you want to brag to your family and friends about how you got special treatment. I order sandals at 9pm on Thursday and Zappos generously upgrades my shipping and Bam! they arrive the next day around noon. How is that possible? I've waited longer for pizza delivery. Zappos plays for keeps. They don't want to give you a reason to shop anywhere else. The free shipping both ways makes the transaction risk-free.

I own 6 pairs of reefs. The X-S-1 is, by far, the most comfortable Reef they make. I would have no problem wearing them all day to a theme park or standing on concrete 8 hours a day.

Look good, feel good, and Zappos must have shipped them on a rocket sled because they were delivered before I knew what was happening! Great job!

As close to an all-purpose athletic flip-flop as I've seen (this year). I need a pair for walking around on the beach as well as walking on NYC's hard hot summer sidewalks that won't leave my feet feeling like they've been beaten by hammers at the end of the day. These are replacing my Fanning 02's (I miss them) from last year and so far so good. Totally cushion all over, but especially on the heel. Water drains right out, and the soft strap gave me zero blisters straight out of the box. They're totally lightweight and well made, although these are the first Reef's I've had that seem to run a half-size small. It would be nice if there was a leather option, but it's nice these are so waterproof.

Wowzas! These flip flops are the most comfortable I've ever owned (more so than Reef Fanning and Rainbows). They fit like a glove and they dry quickly! I have never believed in "shock absorbing" gimmicky stuff that is on a lot of footwear nowadays, but I really think these do their job. Also, I had ordered these at 3pm on Tuesday and they came the following day - it was amazing for free shipping! In conclusion, I love these Reef sandals and Zappos' service is amazing as always!

Great flop! Arch support, hides big toe bunion, sturdy, and bottle opener is super useful. Lasts about a year with heavy use.
