I have had my first pair since 2000 (12 years now) and have a lot of mileage on them. I wear them daily, if not all day, part of the day. I just had a baby a couple months ago, I got to the point during pregnancy, that I couldn't wear many shoes without them hurting my feet due to quick weight gain. These were the "shoes" I would constantly wear and resort to. I've owned several pairs, but the ones that I've kept and haven't lost have been my first pair. They have some signs of cracking on the edges, from major wear and age, but have remained comfortable. I love them!!!

In our warm TX climate I wear these almost year round. I LOVE this style! Every year, I buy a new black pair and brown pair and often add in a colored pair as I did this year. They don't ever wear out or smell...I just like having a fresh new pair each year because I wear them so much. I'm a stay-at-home mom and author so these work for me just about any where I go! Love that they can get wet and dry out quickly too!

I bought a pair of these and my daughter wore them one time she was home and wouldn't accept any other style or brand, so I had to order these to replace a gift of another style. They feel great the first day, but even better the longer you wear them!

I've had two pairs of these and they feel wonderful. I purchased my last one in Hawaii because my feet were getting really achy and tired from all the walking and sight-seeing. I was so glad I purchased them! I had brought 4 different pairs of flip flops when I got there and ended up purchasing these and wearing them the whole time I was vacationing. The texture of the flip flop is somewhat different from most and may seem like they would be a little hard when you first see them but on your feet, they feel heavenly! I'm sticking to these each summer.

This is the first time i have wore these shoes and would purchase another pair. After being on my feet all day and coming home to these shoes it is great.

I bought a pair of these reef flip flops 15 (yes, fifteen) years ago and they are still in great condition!!! I cannot believe how long they've lasted. They are very comfortable! I wear them all the time (shopping, walks, beach, water parks, etc.) They even servived my puppy attacks! The only reason I'm buying another pair is I would like them in Pink! My old ones, which I'm still keeping, are blue.

I have been wearing Reef's since 1996 and I only purchase and wear Reef's. The rubber used lately on the Sandy Reef's is much different, it is very firm, too hard and will not break in (I've never had to break in a pair of Reef's). These hurt my feet and unable to wear.

I bought these and they are very comfy but the black rubs off and turns the bottom of my feet black. I feel embarrassed cause it looks like my feet are already dirty

I have been purchasing the sandy style reefs for over 10 years now. When I originally ordered these of course I didn't read the reviews, due my past experience with this brand and style. I received my first order and was disappointed that I had to return because they were too small. I had ordered the same size I have purchased prior. So I re-ordered and sized up. Well they fit, however they are not the same sandy sandals from the past. They no longer have the same cushioned footbed and are somewhat hard. I am not happy with the changes and will be returning them. I don't believe I will be purchasing these again. Disappointed because I truly loved reefs!

Reef has been my choice for decades. The most current pair is 4-5 years worn, and "Sandy" came up in social media to tempt me to replace. I took the plunge. My usual size 8 is more snug of a fit with the wider colorful strap, which is super cute. Also a slightly raised heel end, but I am missing the arch support that brought me to purchase all the other Reef flip flops I've owned. Guess I'll wear these out and look for that feature next time.

I love Reefs. My only complaint is that the size 9 I bought years ago is different than the size 9 I buy now. When I hold up my previous size 9s to the Reefs that I just purchased, there is a definite size difference and my new ones are smaller. There should be no reason the sandals are different sizes!

I typically wear a 6.5-7. I read the reviews which suggested to order a size up. 8 is typically way to big for me so I went ahead with a 7 (since there weren't half sizes) and my foot just barely clears the back. I also wear a wide and these are fine. Otherwise, these are very comfortable shoes! So far I have been in them just a bout full time since getting them. They seem like they are well made and will last for awhile, great quality. I hope by the time these wear out there will be half sizes to choose from.

My Sandy Reefs came in about a month ago and they're really comfortable, except that where the upper strap hits the bottom of my big toes rubbed them raw. I'm sure it's just my feet though and once the straps stretch out to mold to me they'll be fine. I usually wear a 9/9.5 and the size 10 fits well.

I adore these sandals and have worn them for years- they are comfortable and durable (unless you get them stuck in a door and the strap breaks). HOWEVER, they have run extremely small for the last several years. I normally wear an 8.5 and consistently have to size up to a 10- it's so strange. And a huge pain to have to send them back for a larger size.

I have been buying this style of flip flops for years. However, this new pair is extremely slippery. Why is there a fabric on the bottom? What happened to just having the rubber bottom?

I am heartbroken. Ordered a pair of Sandy size 11 women in June 2019.. perfect fit. I wear a size ten dress shoe but usually size up to 11 in reef Sandy. Puppy got a hold of last years reef sandy's.. ordered size 11 June 2020.. shoe has a new logo stamped in Heel of footbed but The foam sole is shorter and just a tad narrower- but still same great support and cushion I love...I should have taken a photo to show comparison. So- gulp- can you please make a Reef Sandy Women's size 12? I am lost without them!!!!

My pup got a hold of my Reef sandy flip lops that I love. I ordered them in June of 2019. Just ordered a new pair June 2020- they are narrower and shorter than the pair I bought June 2019. I wear a size ten dress shoe/ flat or heel. Size 11 sandy flip flops always work for me . The pair I received yesterday are super cute, new logos stamped in footed but are too short and narrow. My back up size ten teva mush flip flops are longer and wider than the size 11 reef sandy flip flops I just received. Reef Sandy flops are my go to favorites.. help!!! The new reefs are super cute and comply just too narrow and short.

I have worn these reefs since I was a teenager! (over 20 years) they are the only brand of flip flop that I will ever wear! I did feel like the quality of these seemed different (the bottom seemed cheaper) but will only know with a little more time. Typically a pair lasts me a couple of years of extremely heavy use. I go from beach to mountain to tough city streets in these bad boys, they are the most comfortable things ever!!! My only complaint is the sizing, I am a 5 1/2-6 and I have to buy a 7 in order for them to fit because they run very small. If I were ordering them online for the first time I'd want to know this.

This would have been probably my 6th pair of the SANDY but when I opened them I noticed the sole was different and they seemed heavier, then when I put them on the straps were much looser then any others I had purchased. I know that they mold to your feet but these were too big ( have a slightly narrow foot) These may have been great improvements for some but sadly not for me. I had to return them and will keep looking for a go to casual. I have loved these so much in the past I will look for a store that carries Reef to try other styles. Still recommended.

Cute flip flops! I have wide feet and they stretch a little over a few wears, to make a perfect fit. My first pair lasted a few years so I am hoping these will do the same. And I love the variety of color choices! I bought black and the printed strap with pink and white.

Great product!!! Have been wearing these for 15 years and love them!!!! Sizes do run small though. I normally take a 7 1/2 and got an 8 and I am just barely staying in it.

These are exactly what I was looking for!! The wide fabric straps DON'T rub blisters! (Most rubber flip flops do.) Also they have good arch support and the slight wedge gives them stability. My only complaint is the sizing is a little off. After reading the reviews, I ordered both a 5 & a 6 to try. In the size 5, my heels were right at the end, but the straps fit perfectly and the arch was in the right spot. When I tried the 6, the length was perfect, but the straps were way too loose, the arch didn't hit right, and my feet had no stability. I kept the size 5 even though I wish it was a tad longer. Overall I'm very pleased. They're really comfortable. I think they'll be perfect for walking to the beach in Hawaii in a couple of weeks!!
