Although I love the shoe and have been a long standing customer, within just a few days of wearing them there are threads coming apart on the toe portion. I'm assuming they will endure more wear and tear than a weeks worth of use but just a little disappointing.

I loved my friends sandal. Ordered the same one as her and the same size since it fit. Ordered a size 9 and it fit like a size 7. I could barely get my foot into the sandal. Super upset I have to return them and wait for a new pair.

Replacement of a pair of Reef flip-flops. New ones are not as comfortable and feel a bit too narrow.

This is the 2nd pair of this style of Reefs ... I was trying to duplicate a pair I bought in 2007 that are wearing out .. not bad for 1 years! This pair, however, has a very stiff toe post, unlike the older flip flops. It hurt a bit, I'm hoping it will soften in time.

I love the shoes -- but the first day I wore them - I walked about 4 miles and I found them very comfortable to walk in. However, the straps rubbed and cut into both of my feet on the insides. This made them impossible to wear until the these places heal. I had to go back to wearing my old flip flops until I can wear the Reefs again. The straps should be made of a softer material and less stiff.

I didn't love these. They look more comfortable than the smoothy version of reefs but I found the sole uncomfortable. I was hoping for that eureka moment finding ultimate comfort in summer footwear but no.

Normally I would rate these a 5star!! But in the past two years Reef has slacked. I know people who LIVE in these sandals.. I know I do in my old ones. And buy them religiously every year.. but have the same issue I have had. The past few years they have had a black pair and a white or brown pair. No more pretty pinks or blues or even the multicolored ones. I have even looked on reefs site for a replacement sandal. A sandal in a similar style but has the beautiful bright colors.. but still came up empty. Was still stuck getting a black/mint combo sandal. I love these because they are perfect for summer and the beach. They dry quickly if they get wet are easy to wash without any issues even a good scrub if they get really muddy, which I can not say for any leather sandals or sandals with decoration. I would just like to have more variety back please or a similar sandal that is not in the standard black brown white or black/white/teal combo they have been replaying for the past 2years. I even contacted customer support a little less than a year ago about this issue because I love these sandals so much. Obviously the issue has yet to be resolved.. please do t make me find new sandals. I really love these.

There is a metal piece that probably provides some arch support in the sole. But it will damage our house indoors. If only for outdoors, these would be fine.

Reef sandals have always been well made and fit well right out of the box. This time, all of the sandals purchased by people in our family seem to be slightly smaller/shorter and tighter than in the past. Might not buy again.

Just bought my 12th pair. Loved these for many reasons, but leather inside strap was one primary reason. Almost returned these to Reef, but cannot find older style in any store. Many years ago Reef had a suede style and they discounted it. Every time I find the perfect sandal, go through a few pair, they discontinue them. Stop it and bring back the leather inside strap and softer sole without bottle cap opener.

Use all the time, but they make my feet stink, and when I called CS, he told me to wash them in the washer, then said don't because of the leather, but gave me no other option, and he said I ain't the first person with that problem

These are great comfortable flip flops. Yes 50 is a lot for a flip flop but I feel the comfort and whats available locally Its worth it. So great Shoe, a little high in price and be prepared for Slow shipping. So the 3 stars is that it truly is comfortable. the 2 missing star is for price and over a week shipping

I like them but they came out of the box smelling terrible. What's the smell? Will it go away?

Comfortable but a bit loose. Would prefer them to be more snug so my feet aren't sliding around.

Not sure? Very comfortable sanders. But they don't seem to last as long as others. This is my third pair in about 4 years. 1st pair delaminated and second pair broke at the toe strap. Old rainbow sanders used to have a warranty for the life of the sole but I'm pretty sure these do not.

Size is right, look is good, but the longer I wear, the sorer my feet become. Not sure if its the piece between toes, or the design, but become uncomfortable after a while. Not recommended for extended wear. It does have a well elevated instep as well.

I love the women's Fanning, but the choices are so limited that I decided to try the men's. The fit was good in length, but not in width. I returned the sandals and will continue to buy other Reef sandals.

Like the shoes very much but they did not fit. Size 13 was too small. All of my son's shoes are size 13 and fit just fine - but these run small - his heel was hanging off the back.

Black on Black looks sharp and like that it has the opener on the bottom. I've had many Reef's in the past, and this one seems to have a break in period vs the others as the strap is chafing on my left foot. I need to take a break from them as my foot heals.

I purchased several pairs three years ago and the new version is very thin and poor quality compared to those.
