I wanted an all black comfortable flip flop that I could wear with most things. Right now the shoe is not right the size. I ordered the same size I did for all my other Reef shoes but this one is smaller. So its a little hard to walk long distances in and it looks bad that my foot is bigger than the shoe. I don't know what happened with this one. :( If you get this shoe get a bigger size.

I usually love Reefs, yet was disappointed in the latest purchase. The sizes run small and had to return them.

My favorite sandal of all time! I never wear anything else in the summer months & own multiple pairs.
However, this latest Sandy had a slippery sole & my foot slid while wearing. After I took them off, it left a slippery residue on my feet & on my floor.
I love Reef Sandys...but was very disappointed & returned them.

I have owned multiple pairs of Sandy size 10 in the past. When my new purchase arrived, they were almost a half inch shorter than previous versions and my heel was hanging off the back. These will have to be returned and I'm certain that an 11 will be too long on the front. So disappointed!

This shoe was comfortable but my foot slips on the foot bed. Left a greasy feeling on the bottom of my foot. Unsure if it would eventually wear off but my feet slide so much I am going to return this pair. Wish it had a different coating on the foot bed because I love the style and color.

I have a pair about a year old I love but they're about done so was replacing them. This new pair is flimsy and poorly made.

These run very small. I ordered a size up in flip flops bc I like them to be roomy and these were still too small. They were also very stiff and clunky. Uncomfortable. I usually love reef flip flops. These just didn’t work for me.

I have been wearing these same style reefs for 20+ years the first few pair lastest forever i mean a good 10 years. Recently i have bought more colors and i am totally disappointed ....one pair of the new ones the strap came out of the bottom (i have even sent a pair back for the same thing and it happened with the pair they sent me also), another pair the bottoms came apart from the top sole ( they flap when you walk). I have swore by these shoes for years they are just not holding up the same as they used too. The new ones are less than a year old not even worn in good. Its a shame!!! I wear them so often i even have tan lines from them, I work outside in South Florida so they do get wet, but that is the reason i buy these bc they are able to take the water but they do not hold up like they used too!!

I ended up returning them due to the size being too small. I had these same sandals before and the size was spot on. This time, they're a half size too small. I think Reef sandals have changed their sizing because I tried to buy a pair last year as well and had to return because the sizing and width were way off.

I've been buying this style of Reefs for years, and wearing them all year round. Recently the texture on the bottom changed from the rubbery "Reef" to a weird cloth-like material. I've slipped in all 3 pairs, on several different surfaces. I'm sad to say I'll have to part with my favorite style.

I love my Sandy's! I have lived in them for years. But my purchase of a new pair unveiled a design change that doesn't work! Part of what I loved about my Sandy's was the grip and stability I got from the soles when walking on any surface. Unfortunately, the new soles are so slippery I feel like I am walking on ice!! I have regular old wood floors in my house and I nearly wipe out daily. If the soles don't get changed back, I'm afraid I will be in search of a new brand. This is a very sad turn of events...

The soles are SUPER slippery! In the house, on a dock, anywhere....I slipped and fell three times after ordering 2 pair of these. Not good. I miss the old reefs SO much!

my off white carpeting was turning gray/black. I have bad knees and this was the only sandal I could live in. I wore them year round in the house. It took me some time to realize that the dye was transferring to the rug. I never had any problem with these until they started making all of the Sandys with black bottoms. Sorry Reef--bad quality--for the price, the dye should not be coming off. I am so disappointed, and unfortunately, I had to move on.

These were the FOURTH pair of REEFS I've ordered, so I ordered the same size as always. These felt a full size too small and my heel hung off the back. Sadly, since I'd bought REEFS before, I had already ditched the box and paperwork to return these, so they're waiting for me to take them somewhere to donate. They're cute shoes so I'm pretty upset about the wast of money. I used the Zappo's size recommendation based on the other pairs of REEFS I have owned in the past.

I was SO excited to get my flip flops in the mail, however, when I received them, they are not a true 8. This is odd because I have bought this exact pair many times, and they have always worn like a true 8. This is more like a 6. Disappointing for sure. Maybe they were labeled wrong? (when placed next to the exact same pair of worn out flip flops, there is a vast difference.) I'm not sure what happened, but I will be returning them for a larger pair. LOVE Reefs in general though and have never been disappointed until now.

I ordered a size 10 and it was too short. My heels were hanging off. I've worn reefs for about 10 years and they've all worked well. These new ones run too short so had to return them. They didn't have a size 11 in the style I wanted. I'm pretty bumbed because my old ones are gone(had them for 6yrs) so I needed a new pair. Please go back to the old styles and sizes.

Sizing was too small, I had previously bought diff shoes from this website that's fit perfectly, but there was a substantial diff between the "same" size , very disappointing

I love Reef flip flops and I tried two different pairs of this model because I wanted something in brown. Both pairs had the same problem: the soles are so slippery on hard-wood floors that I am afraid to wear them inside. They are fine outdoors and on carpet but but I am hoping they wear down a bit so I can wear them indoors.

Straight out of the bag the cloth straps on this shoe we're very loose. My thought if the straps were this loose now what'll happen after a few wears? I should have returned them but I'm bad about not doing that. I would not recommend these unless you have a super wide foot then maybe they'd work for you.

Colors are great, fit is great, but the bottoms are too slick to feel safe.

I was so disappointed when I received the flip flops because they had not arch at all. I've had two pairs of Reef flip flops with great arch support and was excited to be replacing my current pair which is wearing out after a few years of much use. Sadly, I will be returning this pair.

These have been my favorite flip flops for forever. I ordered a new pair recently, and they don't stack up to previous pairs. Reef changed the sole. It is very rigid and doesn't contour to my foot. Even worse, it's very slippery and has no traction. I nearly wiped out several times. I tried washing the flip flops and waking on concrete to break them in, but it's not working.

I wrote a review 2 months ago. I am SO disappointed with my Sandys. I've faithfully purchased size 9 for years, so I had no hesitation purchasing that size again (I bought THREE pairs! ). Unfortunately, the sizes are completely off! At least a half size-if not a full size too small! If you're planning on purchasing, size up!!
