Comfortable flip flops but once they get wet they get stinky. Never had a problem like this with other flops.

I came on here to buy a pair of sandals and you don't carry 11/12 in the Fanning for women and that is stupid. First year I haven't had a choice and men's are too loose. Please add those sizes.

This could be my 5th or 6th pair of reef sandals size 13. I was not happy. They ran small and are much narrower than previous reefs. I've never had an issue with all my previous purchases. You either changed suppliers or made design changes. I ordered 4 more pairs to try when they arrive on Monday 6/15.

I am trying to replace an older pair and the style looks similar. But when I tried them on, there is a logo on the shoe where your heel hits. This logo has bumpy little bubbles in the rubber, like a possible manufacturing defect. But there is no way I could walk on these, it is like having little gravel under your heel. It looks like almost all the shoes have the logo under the heel and I won't be trying that again, I will have to look for a different brand.

I live in New England and have a very short summer. I bought these sandals at the end of last summer (august) and did not wear again until July of this year. By the end of July, the leather began to separate between the toes, and by the end of August the instep began to pull out. Price is not for quality, but maybe just the name.... disappointed.

I AM GREATLY DISSAAPOINTED IN THIS YEARS MODEL OF THE FANNING I HAVE WORN THESE FOR SEVERAL YEARS, (THIS WOULD OF BEEN MY 5TH PAIR) I JUST ORDERED A PAIR AND HAD TO RETURN THEM TO MY DISSAPOINTMENT AS THEY FALL OFF MY FEET THE STRAP IS WAY TO WIDE. I HAVE ALWAYS RECOMMENDED THESE TO MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS BUT I WILL NOT ANY MORE UNLESS THEY HAVE A VERY "WIDE" FOOT. MY 88 YEAR OLD DAD IS ON HIS 2ND PAIR MY 40 YEAR OLD SON ON HIS 2ND PAIR. PLEASE AT LEAST OFFER A NARROW AND A WIDE OPTION. VERY SAD I CAN'T WEAR THE NEW MODEL. I RATE THE NEW STYLE THE LOWEST.

I've worn the shoes for 1 1/2 weeks. The thong rubs at my big toe and it physically hurts. I love Reef sandals, never thought I'd have this issue. I thought it'll take time to break in, but they aren't! I thought they would be more spongy, but it's a very hard sole.

The strap on this year's Fanning sandals is super wide. They fit so loose there is no way they will stay on my feet. I wear an 8 medium width, very average. They use to fit nice and snug making it a fabulous sandal with incredible support. Why change it when it was so great for so many years?? Definitely returning them.

I got my first pair of Reefs in 2004/2005. They were incredibly comfortable from the first moment I put them on. They were soft and cushioned and fit perfectly. I wore them every weekend, on vacation, to the beach (in the water), everywhere! I wore them until the soles finally cracked, & even then I hated to throw them away. I was excited to order a new pair, but disappointed when I put them on. Although these were the same size (& style) as my last pair, these were too big, & were much rougher on the bottom of my foot than my last pair - my old ones were soft.

I always wear this particular Reef (for my 40 & 60 mile breast cancer walks) so I know they will be good. Just waiting for them.

These are the most comfortable flip flops I have ever worn. Been wearing them now for 5 years. The arch support makes them different from other flip flops. But Reef...you need to come out with some more....cute and colorful colors :))) Not enough variety !

I wish I could say something about these sandals but the size chart listed on the website instructed me to size down instead of up so I never got to wear them and have them fit right. They run small

I love reefs and have for years. This pair did not fit snug to my foot out of the box. I wore them for 1 day and now they are looser than my 2 year old reefs.

I ordered these because Reef has great reviews. They fit horribly the toe area your food slides so far forward it leaves space in the back while you're walking out of the front of them!

-5 rating if that was an option, gave a 1+ because I was forced to. These are my light use sandals. Been buying for 25 years, these broke in 3 months. Are you sacrificing profits for quality now? Going to put my beat up 3 year old Cobian's on that I have been using for surfing and fishing trips and go get a new pair of their brand. Bye, bye, done with you guys.

Cut too high on my instep. Wore the sandals around the house and the strap cut my feet.

This is 3rd pair of Fannings. The 1st 2 were gifts, black colors. I ordered the Vintage Brown color. They have a chemical odor that will not go away. I can't keep them in the house. I set them out in the hot tropical summer sun whenever I am not wearing them which is most of the time. It's been over a week now. The black ones had no odor. These do. What's the difference? The black ones were made in China. The Vintage Brown made in Viet Nam.
