Customer Reviews Reef Phantoms

I ordered two pairs of these flip flops, but for some reason one of them them began to have an odor in the 'v' part that goes over the foot. These flip flops are primarily used as house slippers and when we step out of the shower. I'm not sure what caused the odor in the material, but the sole didn't get an odor at all. Otherwise, the flip flop is decent. There is moderate arch support, and they are comfortable to wear over time.

I ordered these for my son. They got here very quickly for the holiday. They seem fine, only he was a bit disappointed they are not all one piece? I guess the soles are seamed to the top, not sure if that's the case with the more expensive model, but I didn't want the "opener" on the bottom!

It took me a few hours to get used to the new sandals which replace my old Reefs but I am loving them so far. They have just enough curve in the footbed to make the comfortable. There is lots of cushioning as well. My only complaint to this point is they make a slight flip-floppy sound when walking. I hate that. But still, the sound is much much less than when my wife wears her cheap flip-flops from Walgreens or wherever she got them. The sizing is perfect, the footbed is great, the style and color are as well.

I tried a size 9 but it felt too short (I wear a 9.5). I then ordered a size 10 and the straps are not tight enough. Now the sandals are too loose. The footbed is very comfortable and light with good arch support, but...

Very comfortable, fits like a glove, don't expect a lot of play in the bands, they hold nice and tight. Contoured insole feels nice when walking it gives just enough pressure on the arch of the foot providing the support it needs.

These are made of a foam-type material, lightweight but they are slippery on wood flooring and carpet, so I guess not the best for indoors which is where I primarily wear them. They fit fine and feel comfortable. If you are used to a more rubber feeling flip flop you might not like these.

I've always loved Reef. They fit well and were comfortable. I purchased these in my usual size for Reef, however, they were too narrow. Disappointed.

The ribbon that goes between the toes was too stiff and ruff

Sandals fit differently on each foot on was tight and the other was loose.

I have been buying Reef Phantoms size 11 for over 15 years. Reef Phantoms have always fit perfectly on my narrow foot. My most recent purchase does not fit well. They are big in the arch and feel loose causing my foot to slide around and causing the sandal to move too much from side to side while wearing them. Did Reef change the fit of the phantom over the last two years to accommodate a wider foot and maybe a larger market?

Fit nice broke with in one season of wearing

These fit well and are comfy. Took me about two weeks to get them fully “broken in” to my feet, or vice vests. BUT… the straps have that nifty open-honeycomb mesh design on the underside to create better airflow. Great stuff. Except if you wear these guys at the beach, when the honeycomb mesh traps all the sand, effectively turning the inside of the straps into 80 grit sandpaper. Not at all comfy. I was able to bang them together (for 15-20 minutes) and knock all the sand out again. Sure seems like a weak link in flip flop design, however.

Too tight on straps
