A gift for my husband when his Rainbow sandals started to hurt his arch and consequently heel and knee. He says they are very comfortable and he impresses his friends with the bottle opener! Definitely won't buy Rainbows again, these are much better for him.

I love these sandals! This is my second pair of these, the other ones haven\'t worn out I just wanted another color. \r\n\r\nI gave them 4 stars because I had an issue with the sole delaminating from the front on my first pair. However, Reef ended up sending me a brand new pair so I can\'t really complain. They\'ve been going strong for the whole summer, and no problems.

I wear a 15 and they were actually 1 size too big. That has never happened. I like them okay, but I can't say that I love them. Pretty comfortable.

I had these shoes for several years. Great feel...soft and really comfortable. I also liked how you could put them on after getting out of the pool or ocean. But I didn't like how the front of the shoe's sole is super thin and the toe strap eventually pulled out and I had to throw them away just recently. I've decided to try the Reef Slap this time since it has a thicker toe strap and thicker sole.

I ordered these for my fella when his Sperry shoes fell apart. These are OK. There is the added cheese factor of the bottle opener in the sole of the shoe, but he seems to get around in these just fine. Overpriced for what they are, but I just have not seen a pair of size 14 flip flops anywhere in the over-the-counter market.

These are my second pair and they are the most comfortable sandals I've ever owned. The first pair lasted about a year and then broke. This pair the label on both sandals came off, but that's OK. Anyway, I'm very happy with these sandals.

Seem like great flops so far...only had them a week. Bottle opener is a neat asset, but the crevice gets jammed with dirt if you wear them outside in the yard, so good luck putting that to a bottle top. Gross! Love Zappos.

First off, I ended up returning this shoe but ONLY because of the bottle opener on the bottom. Please be aware of this when ordering. I would normally not care, but I have hardwood floors and did not want to risk divits in my floor. Pretty fun design idea though if you're going to use them for mostly beach wear. They were pretty comfortable for the minute I had them on. I wear a 15 and it seemed pretty true to size :-)

These shoes are all right. My feet had to adjust to them, so they hurt for a few days. So far I have not been too rough on them and the plastic on the front is starting to tear up. Additionally my feet turn black when I wear them.

This is my second pair of Reef flip flops. I purchased my first pair of Reefs a couple of years ago, due to their higher than normal arch support. They started to fall apart sooner than I had hoped (1-2 years), but they served me well. I decided to buy this model to replace my first pair. It also has decent arch support. It is in no way the best arch support, but it is adequate for walking around my apartment and taking the dog for short walks. My only complaint is the price. They did seem rather expensive for rather simple flip flops, which is somewhat insane, but spending this kind of money seems to be the only way to get a well made flip flop with decent foot support. I also resent their high cost considering my first pair lasted less than 2 years of light use.

Bought these for my boyfriend who doesn\'t really like flip flops but needed a pair. He said they were comfortable and I thought they looked great. The logo on the flip flop does wear off quickly as a few other people have said, but the bottom line is that they break in quickly and are a nice all around flip flop.

These flops are money -
These are the most comfortable flip flops I've ever worn. I don't know if the air pockets really make a difference, but these stay on my feet fairly well and have good arch support. The bottle opener does come in handy once in a while, too. The only reason they aren't getting 5 stars overall is that they are less than a year old and the heel is worn down through the sole. I wear them a lot when the weather's warm enough, but it as a cold winter so I'd expect a bit longer life. That said, I'll probably buy them again anyway.

A bit larger than my regular size. Good for wide feet. These sandals aren't as comfortable as they advertise them to be. But the stylish design makes up for it.

Good slaps for when you need to be a little active. Good traction and support. Runs a little tight, but the neoprene will stretch and break in. Very light and good walking cushion.

Good sandals! I was looking for comfortable sandals that also look good. I was hoping the sandals would feel a little softer on feet with better cushioning. It feels harder on feet. I also did not like the beer bottle opener as it makes noise when you are on a flight of stairs. Overall, I am satisfied but feel I paid a little more than the comfort level it provides.

Not too shabby - As with all shoes they were a little rigid initially. Once they were broken in it was smooth sailing. Very good heel and arch support. I'd recommend them to anyone.

This is the second pair of Reefs I have purchased. Believe it or not, the dog ate my other ones, so I guess he liked them as well. The sandals are extremely comfortable and durable. The bottle opener on the bottom works great. I wear a 1/2 size and rounded down, they just fit. So if you do not like them tight and want a little more room for your toes and wear a 1/2 size, round up.

Comfort flip-flop -
Ordered the Fanning’s after trying another basic Reef flip-flop. The Fanning was much more comfortable, required no break-in and had much better traction. I thought the bottle opener was a gimmick, but it actually works. I highly recommend this sandal. Looks good, feels good.

You can’t beat the sandal with a bottle opener on the bottom! A lil tight at first but broke in nicely!

Excellent sandal with a twist -
I recently purchased this sandal based on the volume of positive reviews of this sandal. It is very comfortable, good looking, water doesn't damage it and true to size. I wear it almost all the time (I live in Florida). The only negative is the little metal bottle opener hidden underneath the sole of the sandal. It collects all kinds of gunk in the space where it is hidden and also it is rather disgusting to open a bottle with such a dirty bottle opener...YUCK!

Comfortable walking flop -
This is a very comfortable flop. I walk extensively in them and find them very comfortable. I wear a size 10, and these feel like a 10.5, but still comfortable.

Awesome!
This flip-flop is very comfortable for walking around all day. The only thing I didn't really like is how the same size 11 (yes, I have large feet) came in two different sizes. I have five pairs of these sandals in different colors and I have two that really fit like size 11s and the other three fit like 10s, even though they were marked size 11. All in all though, it's an awesome sandal!

Reef Fanning -
The Fanning is without a doubt the most comfortable sandal that I have ever worn. The bottle opener is cool, as a visual feature, but I would not recommend using it at parties. It’s just unsanitary to open someone’s brew with the bottom of your shoe! That aside, it's a great buy and has the best arch support that I have seen in a sandal.
