Customer Reviews Reef Switchfoot LX

My husband loves these and finds them very comfortable. One foot was a little tight and I would say they run a little small length wise, but they loosened up after walking for a bit and he kept them. If you have wide feet, they might be too narrow.

These are a great utility flip-flop. I was attracted to the non-absorbent material which means these things go through water without getting imbedded stinkiness. Several years later, they’re still going strong. I’ve worn many Reef flips over the years, and they are a reliable and durable sandal, and these ones definitely fulfill that reputation.

I had read reviews that these fit slightly smaller than is typical, which is why I purchased them. Good support, a bit of a step-up from Havaianas (which I also love / wear). I'd suggest rounding up the size, so if you're 10.5, order the 11, not the 10. Very happy with 'em and ordered a different style from same brand because of it.

Living in a beach community I've worn Havaiana flip flops for over 20 years and so I have a very informed perspective. But they had 2 glaring weaknesses. When new they were great but over time with every pair the toe connect piece would snap out of the flip flop and because they lay absolutely flat I'd catch the front end repeatedly. Since you are barefoot in the sandal that can be painful and annoying as you try to keep from falling. And once the toe connect piece comes out the first time it starts to happen repeatedly until it refuses to stay in the sandal. It's basically trashed at that point. So I was looking for something with better quality and design. What caught my eye about the Reef's was the slight upturn in front and a modest amount of arch support. They are flip flops and I wasn't expecting orthotic perfection. They've been perfect in both aspects while still being very lightweight. I'd reorder these any time.

Size 9 Reef flip flops with fabric straps have always fit perfectly. These with the rubber straps are too narrow and since the rubber doesn't stretch were too painful to wear for even a short period of time. Gave them to my daughter.

Needed something more than $1 flip flops I've been wearing for years, tried the ortho models but the arch was too much. These have enough support that I don't feel bad about wearing them, are comfy and don't look like old man sandals. They do run a little narrow and the straps are a little tighter than I'm used to, but not enough to really bother my feet.

Overall a great pair of flip-flops. They took some getting used to at first, as they are a little tighter in the strap than normal sandals, but I’ve come to break them in after wearing around the house for a few days. They provide much more support than a regular foam flip-flop. Fit is pretty true to size, they maybe run a little small, but for me it is negligible.

good flips...comfortable...like both the style and color combos...have had one pair for almost a year now, not everyday use, and they seem to be holding up just fine...
