Customer Reviews Reef Costa Rica

Comfy and Cute - Finally a flip-flop that doesn't chafe! I bought the gold color and it really shines! I think Reefs are expensive, but I am happy with the shoe and would buy it again.

Flaky Gold - I really like Reefs, but these are a little stiff and chunky and the cracked gold is not attractive. It looks like it's all going to flake off. I sent them back.

Wears easily - I loved this flip flop, great look but, was disappointed because the gold, bronze wore very quickly on the bottom where your foot sits in shoe (left with worn off foot mark), very disappointing from this vendor.

Not all Reef flops are created equal! Very narrow compared to other reef sandals, awkward arch placement and stiff construction. Didn't even try to wear them in. Although I would recommend Reef for style and comfort, would not recommend this style for anyone with a wide foot.

Not as comfy as I would've liked... I love Reefs and I have always worn the Ginger ones which are soo comfortable. I was disappointed with the Costa Rica style. It hurts in between the toes and I have gotten blisters along the straps. They have basically gone to waste b/c they are too painful to wear.

Very narrow flip flop - I really wanted these shoes after reading the reviews but the sole is so narrow, my foot was hanging off the sides and I don't have a wide foot. So, if you're foot isn't skinny minny, don't even bother. They're even narrower than my Haviianas that are female sized.

Nothing special - Nothing special - These are pretty basic beach thongs; one version or another of which I wear all summer. I've never worn Reefs before, but had heard good things, so I tried them. Just okay. They are completely non-contoured in the footbed and for this reason my foot tends to slide around a bit making them a bother on hills. Overall they are fine, but not special.

... Pretty comfy for a flip-flop! I wish the arch support was more spread out - instead it's lumped to the inside and that's a little uncomfy. Based on what other reviewers said, though, I'm thinking they'll mold nicely to my feet anyways? Also, a slightly squishier bed would be nice. I ordered in the bronze and it was too small, so I gave those to my little sister and reordered in tobacco. The bronze is prettier, but I like the mellowness of the tobacco too.

Black Reefs - The service I go from Zappos was great and quick. The shoes are cute and very comfortable!!! Reefs always are. The only problem is that the thong itself is far back on the shoe which is not necessary so I always feel like my feet are going off the back. I definitely would buy Reefs again though! This is my 3rd pair...they last forever and are sooo Comfortable!

Cute but not supportive - I purchased three pairs of flip flops from Zappos, and these are the least supportive. I'm using them as slippers for around the house b/c there's no way I can walk around all day in them. They are not as comfortable (all around) nor do they provide as much foot or arch support as the Reef Fanning or the Teva Spun Poly. The pictures look like there's arch support, but it's negligible. It's too bad b/c these (I got them in silver) are the most stylish and wearable out.

Reefs Don't Work for Me - I ordered the gold Costa Rica in 2 sizes to be sure they fit. The 8 fit best but they felt too loose for me, like they would fly off. I think my foot is too narrow for Reefs to fit well. The gold color was also too gold for me, but would look cute on somebody else.
