They actually seem a little bit undersize don't quite fit the way my other ones did and I was charge sales tax and being out-of-state and you don't have a restore here I don't think I should've been charge sales tax so not really happy

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

I have three pairs of these in the exact same style. These are the only pair that are too tight on only one of my feet. They're definitely the least comfortable pair of reefs I own. These also feel completely cheap. Not like the other two pair I have. It's such a bummer because for a pair of flip flops they're far from inexpensive. They used to be so great. I hope this is not what I can expect from now on.

These used to be my go to flops for summer and vacations. However, the quality has decreased and I am disappointed. They used to have a ton of great color combinations (I tend to go for the more subtle combos) and designs but now it seems they only have a handful. Additionally, the past two pairs that I have purchased (via Zappos) seem to have too big of a gap between the footbed and the top of the thong making the grip very loose and uncomfortable. My original two pairs, I never had any issues with this and was even able to wear them through water, long distance walking and for several years use. Guess it is like most things in that quality has decreased. The church key on the bottom of the flop is fun if you are in a pinch. Please go back to better quality Reef.

Hands down the best, most comfortable, longest lasting sandal I've ever had, and I live in these things year round. Although in need of replacement now, I've had them for at least 8 years, and am now looking to buy another pair. I recently bought an alternate pair, but I'm ditching them because the 'flip flop' of the stiff sole drives me crazy. These Fannings do not make flip flop noises when you walk, and stay with your foot which makes walking far more pleasant. The only downside is the bottle opener. I wish they'd make the same sandal without the bottle opener. After a couple of years, it caused some midsole pain from the metal pushing through. However, that went away after about a year.

I have purchased and loved Fannings in the past. I will be returning this new pair because it seems that the quality is not the same. Also, the fit is wider but shorter than my previous pair. I'm somewhat disappointed. They're OK but not worth the price in my opinion.

I have bought 3 pairs of these in a row but clearly Reef have decided to get really cheap with some part of the construction. In spite of washing, deoderising, not wearing, leaving in the sun, leaving in the shade and any other number of attempts to get them to neutralise, these shoes stink. Like you can't keep them in the room with you stink. No other shoes I have carry this skunk like smell, nor did my two previous pairs of these. So avoid the 2013/2014 ones like the plague.

I like my other Reef flip flops a lot so I was really hoping I'd love these. I almost love them. They are pretty supportive and comfortable although I wish they had a bit more squishy padding. My biggest issue is that between the material of the foot bed and the material of the strap, they make my feet sweat quite a bit. I have wide feet and the strap fits me pretty snug but it doesn't cause blisters or anything. for the price I was hoping to love them more.

So far so good with this pair but not so lucky with a pair I got last year. Sat in closet until this past July. After only a few times wearing them the straps came out of the side. Had to go back to an older pair until I got these.

I have had at least 4 pair of the Reef Slap sandals which are incredibly comfortable. I thought this would fit the same way since they look identical. Because the leather is lined on this sandal, it doesn't feel as soft and comfortable as the Slap which is unlined.

Bought these in February, its now August and I've had a blow out! Aside from this short life I can only say good things about this sandal. Comfy and cute, they've followed me on vacations to Mexico and Colombia, where I did lots of walking (and the bottle opener definitely came in handy). Bought a pair for my bf, he loves them as well. Though somewhat hesitantly, I will be ordering another pair!

I bought these because a lot of my friends RAVED about REEF. I was disappointed with how the strap stretched and the front of the sandal feels too thin.

I am very disappointed in the white "paint" on the shoe. I wore them for only 2 weeks and it started cracking and now at 3 1/2 weeks its coming off. They cost too much to fall apart so soon! Comfort is good, looks very bad.

I was not happy with purchase at all. For comfort I gave them 2 stars because they are not what I was looking for. After 1 hour of walk my feet start sweating and start rubbing at every single contact point with flip flops. They picked up all sand and dust from street and looked like over-worn old grandma flip flops (black-leopard). Could not break in and at the end of the day I was using them as my beer opener to kill my pain. Top of my feet and between my toes was hurting really bad. I would never take them with me as trusted, tested and comfortable. Never! Sorry.

I've tried wearing these a few times, and the toe thong is uncomfortable. I just can't seem to get them broken in. They fit my feet great, and I have a fairly wide space between my toes, but the toe thong just rubs too much for me.

The styling of these reefs are more masculine then I am used to. They look clunkier than my usual style which would be ok if they fit perfectly. The length and width are good. Arch support decent, but the top of the strap sits right on my big toe joint which causes a lot of pain to my bunion. It is a new foot issue I am dealing with and need to find a flip flop that has a top strap higher up on the top of my foot. If you have bunions, this may be an issue for you too.

Ordered these for my daughter with the intent to order myself a pair once I tried hers on. Unfortunately, the toe piece was very uncomfortable to both of us. Instead, found that the Reef Slap 2 had a much more comfortable toe piece (though they looked identical) and was equally supportive.

The wide upper strap does not breathe well. The skin begins to perspire in that area. A bit uncomfortable.

These are just OK if you are looking for comfortable flip-flops these are not them. They are not worth the price.

Yes, the sandal is cute; no doubt which is why I bought it. I have a wide foot and it accommodates my foot width. However, after wearing the sandals for less than 30 days, the toe area is so compressed it looks like a pancake. What's up with that? Someone said those are just for the beach. Really? Well, I must have somehow missed that directive when I read about these sandals before I bought them. Overall, I like the sandal; but I wonder how they are going to look by the end of the summer? For the price, I expect more.

I have comfortably worn and liked Teva flip flops for several years, but I thought I would try a different brand. These felt stiff, and the toe thong was uncomfortable. I am sending them back.

These are all right, but far too expensive for what you get. If you are looking for a superior flip flop, go with Teva. Their Mush flip flops are awesome. There Reef flip flops hurt my feet after less than an hour, and the strap between the toes is very uncomfortable. Conversely, I can wear my Tevas (and I have over 10 pairs) all day, and I never have sore feet. Tevas are the best!

The only thing I had trouble with, is the piece between the toes. It is too wide and hurts. I am trying to figure a way to sew it smaller.
