Was excited to get my new Reefs! Disappointed to see the "sticker" that won't come off on the inside of the shoe. Know it's on the inside of my foot but when I take it off- so tacky! Make it removable! For the price, your company can do better.

I think these would be great sandals if not for a huge flaw. I wore them for about half an hour. There are thick seams around the toe strap area. I had two big sore spots rubbed raw on both feet. I'm not sure why they would not understand how uncomfortable that is.

I bought two pairs in the last month expecting them to be wide fit as stated in the description I ordered a women's eight too narrow so I ordered a men's seven also a little bit more space but still too narrow disappointed I have bought from you in the past and the men's fit was good I'm keeping the sandals because they fit my daughter just perfect thank you

My pervious pair like this style lasted almost 15 years. So naturally, I wanted to replace them with this style. I'm an 8.5 and ordered an 8, like my old pair, but they were too small. Returned them and reordered a 9 and they fit perfectly. They're very comfortable.

I bought these in mid-May and by the 1st of August the fabric is already ripped apart on the inside of the thong straps on both sandals. These are my 4th or 5th pair of these and I'm a die-hard Fanning fan, but this is the first time this has happened, especially so soon. I do love the colors and design and they're comfy, as always. Bummer about the cute fabric tearing!

I am a big fan of Reef sandals but was disappointed to find that the arch support was not what I expected.

I ordered these recently to replace a pair that I had owned for several years. Super disappointed in them as the fit and feel is off. I wear an 8 in every single reef sandal I have ever purchased and these were somehow short and the straps were wide and loose. I assume quality of materials, and manufacturing processes have changed because I also have a pair of reef lux sandals that shrunk after a day in the sun. After replacing them the same thing happened to the new pair. Reef has been my go to brand for sandals for over 20 years I am sad to say I will be looking at other brands after my last purchase.

I had these for about two weeks. The paint started falling off the sides sandal. They are two weeks old but they look like I had them for years.

I had 3 pairs of Fannings. I threw 2 in the washing machine and the straps fell apart. Make them machine washable! They are flip flops and they get grungey.

I bought these because I thought they would be somewhat like Slap sandals. They are to a certain extent but I did not expect them to come with bottle openers in the souls of each sandal. I have hardwood floors and fear that the length of time I can wear them before they scratch my floors will be very short. I'm sorry I bought them but unfortunately I threw away all the paperwork before I realized the bottle openers were there. They also seem to be a bit narrow.

These flip flops are too wide and loose on my feet. Made for people with wider feet, not skinny feet.

Have been buying a couple pairs of women's size 9 Fannings for years. This time the Women's size 9 Fanning is about 1/2 inch shorter in length and the sole is so flimsy that it folds under at the toe if I happen to catch it when the surface isn't quite level. Too bad, it's been ruined. Won't buy Reef's again.

I decided to wear them in the house to make sure the fit was good and only had them on less than 15 minutes. I thought I felt something and when I took them off I noticed a visible ripple under the rubber extending about an inch in 3 directions from the tong that goes between the toes. I did not notice this prior to putting them on. I fear that this is going to be a weak point after a few wears and may come apart, I also bought a similar pair (Reef Rover) and have worn them out for several hours and no similar issues has been noted. I will likely need to return them.

The quality is not there as the past. The shoe is thinner in the toes and you lean forward compared to older shoe. Not as much cushioning. Not the support in the arch that it used to have. Also cut down on toe width. I loved the width of the older shoe. That is what made it unique because no one else had the wider width and the arch support and comfort all in one. Also straps are stiffer. Shoe is not as comfortable as the older shoe. Highly disappointed. I LOVED this shoe but not the newer one. I had rather pay more for the quality to be there. Please go back to the better quality!! Will not buy this shoe again unless it has the quality as before.

Ok I have owned a pair of there sandals for two summers now. I have worn them a few times a week and gotten them wet several times. I have by no means worn them out and in a matter of a month one of the side straps came loose from the sole and the toe strap ripped. They are cute and comfy but didn't last nearly as long as any of my previous reefs had.

The shoe is not as thick as before making it less comfortable and less arch support. Also because it is not as thick in the toes you find yourself leaning forward. Also they cut down on the width of the shoe! The straps and bottom of shoe is not as soft as it used to be making it less comfortable. I had rather have my older shoe than the new one. Soooo disappointed. I thought I had found a shoe I could buy forever. I had sold the older shoe to a lot of my friends. We are all saddened that the quality is not there. I had rather pay MORE than to lose the quality!!

Comfortable and sturdy, but "splatter" design on the sides of the sandal began peeling off after 4 days of wear around the house.

I can feel the metal from the left sandal poking my foot as I walk when the sandal bends. A pinching feel. The right one is ok. I needed to use them right away otherwise I would of returned them.

I love the way they look. But they are really uncomfortable, stiff and rigid. The toe piece is too thick and has given me a blister. For the cost and potential, it was a major letdown.

recieved sandles and kept feeling like a pebble was in my Sandle. Come to find out it's piece of rubber/plastic drip from the mold im guessing. Sandles are good but it's pretty annoying having this thing dig into the heel each step

The style remains cool, but the quality is waning. My reefs used to last for 2 summers of use, but over the last few years, they tear apart before the season ends (and I live in New England where the summers are short!). I'm really disappointed with the product. The problem each time is the toe strap delaminating or completely tearing through all the layers.
