Customer Reviews Reef Ginger

Ginger has always been my favorite! But, something has changed over the past few years. The bottoms are not the same and feel fuzzy and are VERY slippery! I have almost fallen several times and had to stop trying to wear them. They also used to come in bright, different color soles and now colors are very limited. I wish they would make the bottoms like they used to be! I will be forced to wear Rainbows until the bottoms change.

I had to return as these sandals were too wide. I have a narrow foot and these were recommended as running narrow. They do not and found them to have no support.

The shoes I ordered didn't fit and they don't carry size 12, The ones I received looked comfortable, and prices were better than anyone else,, If they start carrying size 12 in women's I would def order from them in the future, I have been finding out that a lot of ppl are having plantar fasciitis problems and need arch support, most other sites are expensive. I had no problems with Reef other than didn't have my size.

I actually returned this item. The straps on the top were not what I expected.

All of the flip flops I bought were to narrow for my slightly wide feet. I wear a 38 euro or 8 us ladies sandal. Should have also gone to a 9 in this style for correct length. Unfortunately I have to send vall 3 pairs back.

A bit disappointed in the size. They definitely run small. I put them next to old Reefs that I had and they were definitely significantly smaller in length and narrower on the sides. However, I still find them to have great arch support and very cushiony. I actually had bought one size larger for a family member and I tried those on. They were the perfect length but the straps were too loose. Oh well. I won't return them but won't purchase online again.

My favorite footwear. I live in these nearly 24/7 since discovering them at the O'Neill Surf Shop in Santa Cruz in 2010. I always buy hot pink, Barbie pink (pink, pink, REAL pink!!!), cool pink shades, and cool aqua, if pink isn't available. These great colors aren't around anymore, and I hate the new colors. Please bring the cool colors back! I have bought (and worn out) many pairs, and now all my daughters wear these, too. Help?

I bought another pair of reef sandals which I loved. These are ok, but a bit small and nothing special. I'm reading they have arch support but I don't feel any.

This is my third pair of Gingers. They have been my go-to flip-flops for years. But something is different about this pair. They are a tiny bit shorter that my other pairs of Reefs and they feel and fit differently because of it. I also had to buy this pair because my last pair broke after less than a year. I love the look these shoes but I may have to start looking for a new favorite.

They're pretty but run small

I ordered 2 pairs in two different colors black/brown both in size 9. Brown is very pretty cute style. They did not fit disappointing. My daughter's a size 7 had her try them on they fit her perfectly. Should have listened to the other reviews saying they run small & narrow.

I opened the flip flop, tried them on and immediately returned them. Too narrow for my feet. Not what I was expecting.

Always loved reef but had to return. These run too small

I've been wearing these for about 15 years, always anxious to buy a new color. Just received the "blush/ black" (pair # 8?) today and they are a little shorter, wider and looser. Disappointing for a narrow footed woman with an extra long big toe. They'll work but prefer the old shape. The "slim" ginger is way too skinny. Who can wear that?

I've been buying Reef sandals for 20 years and these ones aren't as comfortable. The way the strap lays across the top of my foot is a little painful at times. I'll be going back to my mainstay purchase of basic black Reef flip-flops.

Since there is no design in the foot area, as soon as your foot gets moist at all, it squeaks when uou walk. I hate my feet making noise, annoying.

I had a pair of ginger sandals for about 8 years! They were shaped like my foot and so comfortable. But sand started to get stuck in hole at the toe where the strap went in, they would turn the sole of my foot black, and the tread was soooo gone. So of course I got another pair. My new ones feel like the strap around my foot is a little looser so my foot swims in them a little when I walk. The strap also felt like sand paper against my foot but it didn't bother me anymore after about 2 months. I have narrow 7 1/2 feet and the size 8 fits well. They are still comfortable and versatile and I could walk around in them all day without my feet hurting. The only other thing that I don't like about them is that the tread really isn't good. They are still new and when I walk I feel my back foot slip out from under me as I'm taking my next step. I don't think these are going to last near as long as my old ones did but I guess Reef doesn't make as much money if they are built to last. :-/

I love these shoes and ordered new ones to replace a pair that I'd worn holes through (after several years of wear). Unfortunately, the ones I ordered were way too small even though I usually wear that size (6). I returned them and reordered them in a 7. I'm crossing my fingers hoping they fit. I was disappointed that Reef does not offer free return shipping or free shipping on exchanges. I feel that I wasted $15 in shipping (between returning the first pair and paying for shipping again when I ordered the second pair) for shoes that do not cost much more than that. If these had been available on another site that does offer free shipping, I would have ordered them from there. Just a word of warning to the company :)

I love Reefs. In fact, I love them so much, this was a replacement pair for the same sandals I bought years ago. The only problem was they were too small. My old sandals were a size 8. I ordered a new pair of size 8s. When they arrived, they were a half size if not a full size smaller than my first pair. Seems like Reef has changed their shoe sizing a bit. I returned the too small pair and have ordered one in a bigger size. Still looking forward to getting them in the mail. Ultimately, these are simple, comfortable and cute. I hope the next size up fits just as well as my old ones!

I have worn Reef flip flops almost exclusively. I was unable.to tell by the pic that the straps were not rigid like my other pairs. The cloth is rough on the top of my feet and twist every time I try to slip them.on, making me sit or lean down to correct them before walking.

I have been wearing the Ginger style for many years. My most recent purchase, the soles are really oddly shaped and the arch support goes back to the heel so far it makes my foot wobbly. I compare them to my current pair and the arch support is much further forward on my current pair. Really wanted to like these but do not like the new sole shape.
