Ive pirchased 3 pair of the Reef Draftsmen and live the quality of this flip-flop. Have that Reef already broke-in feel and only get better with time. Rhe bottle opener is a added bonus. Thanks again Reef A+++

I'm a 73 year old female and these sandals will last me beyond my lifetime. I bought them because I have a wide foot and men's shoes are wider than women's. All the guys are really impressed with the built in bottle opener. I don't know that I'll ever use it but I thought it was a unique feature!

Perfect for the beach or a barbecue. Can dress them up a little or dress them down since they are a clean all leather flop. Recommend buying but Id try on in a store they run a little small and narrow

I was so glad to see I could order size 14 sandals . With big feet I have a hard time finding any sandal over size 13. They fit perfect and there was no so called " breaking them in " . The leather was soft and durable. I will definitely be ordering more shoes.

I purchased these for myself, and I will say they are very comfortable. They are leather so they are also stiffer and will need some break in time, but I was able to put them on and wear them right away. They look good, and my wife loves them.
As far as the cons, the first thing I did with them because they seemed so stiff was actually bend one of them in my hands to emulate how maybe they would flex when I walked... Welp, that wasn't a great idea considering they are leather and INSTANTLY creased. It was dumb on my part but if you are somewhat OCD like me, don't bend them with your hands just wear them as they are designed. Now I have one with a crease in it and I am SO bummed.
One other thing I noticed is that they are very smooth, which is good and bad. Maybe I just have soft feet, but they are more challenging to walk in because they are so smooth than other styles that are rubber and textured that Reef makes. This isn't a deal breaker or enough for me to return them, but it will take some getting used too/breaking in.
Overall I really like Reef sandals. I would reccomend them to anyone who likes flip flops, and wants good quality and style. Shipping was pretty fast as well.

Theae flip flops fit pretty well. the arch support is a nice touch, but you can tell it is hard plastic. look really good and the bottle opener is awesome to have on foot.

I wear a size 8. First pair I bought were too small. Next pair I went with a size 9 and they fit perfectly.

These were a little firmer than most of my other Reef sandals I have purchased, and a little small for their size but not so bad that I had to return. The material seems tough enough so far. The bottle opener on the bottom is really dumb. Whenever I wear them in my garden the bottle opener gets dirt/mud stuck in it. I filled it in with epoxy so it wouldn't catch on anything and make me trip. Overall attractive and they're good for the price.

I ordered a size 12 because I read to size up if you were in between sizes, but now it fits too large. The strap is really big so it’s not good for thin feet. Otherwise it looks good and hopefully they work out.

I love the style of the sandal the whole look is just perfect and exactly what I was looking for. My only complaint is I think the arch supports just a little too strong. I wish it was dialed back a little bit for a flatter sandal. Besides that there amazing!

Just received and wore them out for the first time. Really nice, just wish the strap was tighter.
There should be an option for tight or loose straps, that would be amazing

The REEF is an excellent sandal, especially the arch support -- and I actually use the bottle opener on the beach sometimes! I bought this pair as a reserve because my current pair is showing its age and will no doubt break one of these days. The only disappointment: I bought this model because the leather in the online photo looked lighter, sort of with a worn look that I liked -- but they look brand new, with a dark tone that doesn't really look like leather, although it is. Oh well.

Great FFs, same sizing as the Smoothy, length-wise. the straps are def looser, and my foot was swimming. I have a skinny foot, i guess. Back to the smoothys. Quality is really good, I'm bummed they have to go back.
