Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

After a bout with plantar fasciitis on both feet several years ago, I've needed to be very careful about shoes. I love flip flops and have been wearing a brand that is quite pricey but works great for footbed comfort along with style. These Reefs do not have the molded footbed of the others, but the footbed is soft (without being limp), substantial and molds to the feet very well. Kind of like a tempur-pedic for your feet! There is a raised arch and it is very comfy. I don't know that I might have been able to enjoy these quite as much several years back when that plantar stuff was such a bother, but for the price, they are well worth the try and realized a very positive outcome for me... They are extremely comfortable, hold my foot in place well and feel great on long walks. That they are so pretty is a delightful bonus. Would highly recommend.
If you find that it's really hard to find comfortable flip flops that also have an arch support, look no further! These are the flip flops for you. They have a super soft footbed that is very supportive and a really nice sized arch support. The straps are super soft fabric and never rub or cause blisters. I wear these with shorts, capris, and even maxi skirts. They can be dressed up or dressed down. The sole is non-slip and I always feel safe and secure when wearing them. I cannot say enough good about these flip flops. Buy them! You won't be sorry!
While I own about 7 pair of Reef flip-flops, I ordered these to try some that looked a bit different. They are attractive and fit well but I won't be wearing them as much as the original ones because my feet slip and slide too much due to the slick-feeling soles. The bottoms feel good standing still in that they are more cushy, but I wouldn't want to walk very far in them.
True to Reefs these are extremely comfortable and well made. My only complaint would be that the material starts out very tight to your foot and then quickly stretches out quite a lot! The downside of this is that a) they're now a bit too loose and b) you don't know that they're too loose until it's too late to return them. Upon first wear I found the snug fit to be excellent though I didn't mind if it would loosen s small amount. However within one or two wearing a they were basically an entire size wider. I love the color and the footbed is extremely comfy so they still get 4 stars. Minus one for the tricky expanding thong.
This is an excellent flip flop. Recently I've become obsessed with "hands-free" shoes. Something I can slip in and out of bc I'm usually dragging,ugging or carrying something in my hands and need to be able to kick my shoes off fairly quickly at the door. I was skeptical because these have wide straps. After a couple wears, I no longer need to use my hands to put the shoes on. The super squishy sole is a value-added. So awesome. Feels like mud. It's just there hugging my feet. The whitish undersole is nice too bc I don't have to look at all of the nasty crap that I have stepped on all day.
I am buying a new pair of flip flops for an upcoming trip to Sea World. I wanted something with good arch support that could also get wet. I am a faithful Birkenstock wearer. I ordered three Reef sandals based on reviews that others wore them at theme parks for an entire day and were satisfied. The Zen is the best of the three ordered. The Zen has more cushioning and arch support. The Zen was also true to size, while the Sandy and Guatemala both ran short. I am usually a 9 1/2 or 10, and I ordered a 10 in all three styles. The Zen was the only style that fit well. I am looking forward to my day at Sea World in my Zen sandals. The straps are soft, and close fitting without being uncomfortable.
I love these they are so amazing !! COMFORTABLE !!! No having to wear them in... the strap is so soft and comfortable . I ordered a second pair right away . The straps around foot are little snug but that's what I love about them other flip flops I had to work on keeping them on my feet not with these.... PERFECTION ..... VERY HAPPY
I was impressed with the glowing reviews for these flip-flops. I had high hopes. I wear a 9.5 in most shoes. I like flipflops to fit snuggly, so I ordered a 9 instead of going up to a 10. The 9 may have been a tad short, but the problem for me was not the size as much as the cloth straps. The soft cloth straps lay on top of the shoe. They do not "stand up" as pictured. I am handicapped and need a shoe I can just slide my foot in. I tried for 15 minutes to get my foot in a blasted flipflop!! The cloth kept laying down and I would lift it up again..over & over.... (My feet cramp when I have to wiggle them to get into a shoe.) The next issue: I could feel the edge of the strap where it goes into the sole when I tried to walk in them. I knew these were not the shoes for me... I have returned these for a refund.
