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.

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.

Cool Looks - These shoes have some of the coolest looks, and once broke in, they are just as comfortable. However, the break in process is not fun or pretty. They do not have a soft leather or cloth band, so it rubs quite a bit. Also, not true to size. They fit about a half size smaller than marked.
I'd also recommend:
Reef, but with a cloth band

Reef Fanning - Great shoe. Careful with bottle opener on bottom of shoe, although convenient if you have your feet up resting on something it will scratch surface.

Reef Fannings - Great summer sandal - Very comfortable and great looking. Watch out for large pebbles though, they can get stuck in the bottle opener on the bottom of the shoe. Other than that, they are awesome.

Great sandal but does not clean well. My son is happy with the style and comfort of this sandal, but it does not clean well. We will not purchase this color again but would consider another color.

Much better than MOST - Very nice sandal with all the features I was looking for. The bottle opener was just a "bonus". Only problem I have and I'm unusual in this regard I'm sure, is that while the straps have good padding and are comfortable I still have little raw spots develop on the top of my feet from the straps. Again if you normally can wear sandals and your feet aren't as tender as mine, then these are "excellent sandals". The cushioned heel is also "very nice" as is the mild arch support. I'm still searching for the "perfect sandal" that doesn't have to be "strapped on". I'll still use these for "short durations" but I can't use them for extended wear due to my soft skin... Oh and this store is Excellent. Very fast service and great prices. Great selection as well. Enjoy.

Reef sandals are great for us old dudes that want that old 90s flip flop. Even has the beer bottle opener! Not that many beers today need an opener, but hey, grandpa still drinks Corona. Problem I have with Reef sandals is they are usually too small. 2 of the 3 pairs I have purchased were a full size too small making them not wearable. Be sure to size up.

Never had Reef, yet always wanted a pair. I am still breaking them in, built well, and have a nice look but no comparison comfort-wise to my previous Hurleys.

Very good brand But the only problem is the impression that it has on top of the flip-flop it begins to bother after a while in the heel part

I love the look of the Fanning. And that's what you buy these for. Reef has very comfy footwear but the Fannings are not. The logo is stiff, high definition, and directly under your heel. Currently I wear them a couple hours and swap to a different shoe. I hope that after wearing for a while this will either soften or my heel will callus over enough to wear these.

this is my second pair, hoping the most recent pair would have been different, but they werent. Nice shoes but not enough arch support, especially for the money. Take the money to add a stupid bottle opener and make more of an arch

They don't make them like they use to. 3 strikes and Reef is out. I have purchased these over the years. But this last year was the worst. I have bought 3 pairs within the last year. Their quality of workmanship materials have gone down the drain. All three pairs of thongs broke. And the last pair gave me horrible sores on the sides and top of both feet. Spend the extra money and purchase Chaco's they are my new fav.

Way too hard, not very comfortable. Also not a fan of the bottle opener. Style is decent though.

Before I can give a true review, I need to order a size smaller. It was definitely a size larger and wider than the usual Reef's I've worn in the past.

Was expecting the flip to be a little better than what arrived. Not 100% happy with them but now I know to never get that one particular flip again.

These are well made; however the material used is ‘stiff”. Gives NO cushion. It was like walking of a shingle of wood. Too bad. They look cool.
