Super comfortable flip flops. Gives great support. I have bought Reefs for several years and they last through everyday wear for a year or more in our south Texas climate. This pair offers the great support without the higher price. I love them. The only thing is, I usually wear an 11 and had to return to get a 12. So it may run a bit small.

Happy with Zappos and Reefs once again! I love the Reef Slap, almost as much as my wife does! She got them for me, and I'm a believer. They really are the best Flip Flop I have put on my feet. She has had the same pair for three years now, and I'm expecting these to hold up just as well. Hers still look new except for a little wear on the sole. If these ever wear out...unlikely...I'll be ordering a new pair of the same. No complaints. Worth every penny. And I do not spend my pennies often. About the size. I'm typically a 10.5 and I fit the 10 tight and kept the 11 for a bit more room.

These shoes rock! Order a size up though. My husband usually wears a 10 1/2, but he ordered size 11's and they fit perfect! And of course Zappos service can't be beat!

Reef is the only brand I buy for flip flops because they are nice and comfortable and secure around my feet.

This flip flop is very comfortable. I developed a case of plantar fasciitis and was looking for something to wear right out of bed so as not to walk around barefoot (which is bad for plantar fasciitis). These flip flops fit the bill perfectly. They are very comfortable and provide great arch support. My plantar fasciitis is healing very quickly. I also ordered a pair of Vision flip flops by Reef and they are excellent, too. The shoes in both instances came in two days.

These are great! Got to Punta Cana, put them on and off to the beach. They are very comfortable and I have trouble with my feet. I really like these a lot.

I have been a huge fan of the Reef "Slap" flip-flops for a long time. I was disappointed to find out they were discontinued some years back. When I found out there was a "Slap 2" I was skeptical that they would be different from the originals ans I wouldn't like them. I can honestly say that the "Slap 2's" are just as good as the originals. I have very wide feet (4E) and these fit great. The length is about a half size short though. They are very cushy but rubber sole makes them durable. They also have great traction in wet conditions.

I bought a pair of leather Slap IIs and loved them so much that I boughta pair of brown and a pair of blue as well. No doubt the most comfortable and quality made flip-flops I've seen.

They look great, feel great, they are true to size and overall I'd recommend them to a friend. I don't think I'll buy any other kind of Reef sandal moving forward.

These are exceptional sandals. I was amazed that they were so comfortable, given that the construction is mostly rubber. I could also hardly believe how sexy these jet-black thongs looked on my muscular calves, given I'm in my late forties. Honestly, my Birkenstock Ramses both are comfier and have a much higher head-turning ratio, but rocks get trapped in their soles because of the deep heel cup, which is a problem I don't have with the Reef Slap II. This rubber Reef, by the way, is more comfortable to me than its leather fellow.

I like the Reef Slaps because they have more cushion. This was my second pair. The first pair I bought were pink and were even more comfortable.

Wonderful sandals. I wear sandals 6 months of the year and was looking to replace Nike sandals that I have worn for years. When I couldn\'t find the same pair I tried multiple brands. Crocs were much too stiff and gave me blisters. The Oakleys were not much better. The Reefs are very soft and comfortable. Able to walk for a long time with great comfort. They fit true to size. And as always, Zappos was great.

Each of my teenager sons have a pair of these. I was reluctant at first to spend so much money on them, since they tend to lose things. But, I have to say that they are well worth the cost. They are very cushioned and offer arch support and the kids consider them cool. Best of all, they like them so much they make sure not to lose them!

I bought these for my husband and he loved them so much that I bought another 2 pairs. One for him, and one for my brother. They both said it\'s like walking on air.

Southern California summers (circa late 50s & 1960s) would officially start with my mom's regimented ritual of buying the kids a pair of plastic Flip-Flops from the local grocery store. The Flip-Flops/Thongs/Zorros were displayed in a huge wire bin and came in only two colors (blue & red) with 3 unisex size choices (S-M-L). Having a new pair signified the beginning of the summer vacation, freedom from school and also allowed free range feet and toes to freely inter-mix with H2O adventures at Laguna Beach, Sierra Mountains and the local pool. These ancient sandals provided absolutely no comfort & support, poorly protected the tips of the toes, would produce blisters for the first 3 or 4 weeks of summer vacation and would rarely last the entire summer. Perhaps the technology of the time wasn't advanced enough or maybe the rigors administered by an eight year old throwing their Flip-Flops like a Ninja Star Frisbee at any moving target (teasing older brother) that crossed their path also aided in their short lifespan. I recently bought my first pair of Reef Slap II's and was amazed by the huge step* or advancement in flip-flop technology that has occurred since those early primitive years and even in the last 15 years. Gone is the bin shopping which now has been replaced by the computer/mouse pad navigation for easy (Zappos.com) internet ordering...whoever would have guessed. Wow! Seriously though, these Reefs are amazingly comfortable, supportive, cushiony and have not caused the dreaded blistering syndrome (DBS) so common with many of the poorly made flip-flop brands. They immediately conformed to the individual dynamics (arch) of my feet, absolutely no break in period was necessary. After reading some of the reviews about sizing, I ordered one size larger than my normal tennis shoe size, this was the perfect sizing calibration tool and provided for a perfect fit. Many word meanings have evolved and changed over time as well as the design and construction of the Flip-Flops from those early days of the 1960s. A free range is not necessarily a major appliance one can win in a contest or by redeeming trading stamps, a mouse pad isn't a home for rodents and a thong is not only a sandal but a type of very uncomfortable underwear, but more importantly a Flip-Flop has evolved into a totally pleasurable experience, especially when it's a pair of Slap II's by Reefs. *Pun intended.

A great flippy floppy that I can recommend to anyone who has an arch in their foot. Flatfooters need not apply. I have a med-low arch and it took just a few hours for the shoes to fit great. Wore three days straight in the water on a rocky beach in the Colorado River while on a houseboat trip. Very strong straps and very comfortable. Could not be happier.

I found this reef at a store locally, but in a man's 7. I am a gal. Ordered a 6 online from Zappos and they are perfect! Just what I was looking for. Excellent support and better than my other Reefs.

Absolutely the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. They are like walking on clouds but at the same time giving plenty of arch support. Highly recommend the shoes and purchasing from Zappos.

I have had a pair of Reef Redux for several years and they are my favorite sandals. I have been trying to find another pair to buy but have had no luck. So, after seeing the Reef Slap II on Zappos, I thought I\'d take a chance on that style. I am one happy guy. The Slap II\'s are just what I wanted. Very comfortable, a decent arch support and the the strap between the toes do not bother me at all, like on some flip flops. Thank you Reef for a great product and thank you Zappos for making my on line purchase quick and easy.

The Reef Slap is, I think, the most comfortable flop that Reef makes. Some of the others look cool or have cool features (church key, built in flask) but for comfort these Slaps are the best. They are soft and supportive and last for years. I had one pair for about 5 years, last year I couldn't find the Slap so I went with another brand and was not near as happy. I know it's just a flip flop, but once you have tried these you will know why other companies just don't cut it.

I love these flip flops. I had bought a pair last year and they were starting to wear and companies always bring out new styles and I couldn't find any as comfortable. They have good arch support, are wide enough so your fit don't hang off the sides, and don't wear out half way through summer. Zappos was everything they advertise. They carry just about everything. They were fast! And No shipping costs. If I had needed to return them, I sure I would have been satisfied with that, too. Yay, Zappos!

I have worn Reef sandals for over 25 years. When Reef stopped making the original Slap. I had a very difficult time finding another sandal that was as comfortable and durable as the Slap. After trying several styles and brands, I was very happy to see Zappos selling the Slap II. They are simply the best, most comfortable sandal I have found. Zappos makes the purchase process painless. A few minutes on the computer and in 2 days I have my sandals. Thanks for your help!

Very nice very comfortable. I highly recommended! If you like flip flops that are flat, do not buy these. They are pretty thick on the back of the sole. They run 1.3 small in size almost 1.5. I wear 11.5 sneaker so I bought the Reef Slaps in a size 13 they fit good, but a hair big.

Arch support is excellent. But, the thong is not well made and irritates between the toes.
