Reef Fanning Sandal - Men's

I bought these for my boyfriend as a birthday gift and he loves them and has worn them everyday since. I'm glad I read the other reviews though b/c he wears a 10.5W and I bought these in a size 12.

When I first saw these, I was skeptical about 1) paying $50 for sandals, and 2) going along with a bottle-opener shoe gimmick. I went ahead and got them, 3 years ago, and my only regret is that I paid full price, instead of finding them on here. They're comfortable as hell to this day, they've lasted me through a LOT of wear and weather (I wear them about 9 months out of the year), and believe it or not, those bottle openers are your best friend, and new party trick for months after buying them. I wouldn't wear them in rocky or gravel-covered places, though, because stuff can definitely get jammed in the openers, and the hard plastic will probably crack if you hammer down onto a rock at a weird angle. Under normal use, though, these things will last you for many summers to come.

Any self respecting party gangster should be able to open a bottle of beer with a lighter. And who wants to rub the sole of a dirty, worn pair of flip-flops exactly where you place your lips? But I once owned a pair of Reef's with a flask built in the sole, quick little bathroom break at the Laker's game can transform your coke into a cuba libra (rum and coke with a wedge of lime), priceless.

I have owned 2 pair of these bad boys. These Fannings are the most comfortable sandal i've ever worn. They also look great and come with a bottle opener, which is a big party pleaser. I recommend everyone stocking up on these while you can.

Got them the other day and have yet to take them off yet. The feel really good and they don't hurt to break in. And fit like a dream. :)

It sounds kinda funny opening a bottle with the bottom of your shoe, it's cool as along as you didn't step in sparky's present waiting for you out the door. They work great though and are really durable i've had mine for a year now and they still hold up great.

Just bought my 4th pair in the last 6 years, didn't really need them but was going on vacation and realized my dog had chewed on the pair I picked up last year. They're really comfortable but take about 2 weeks to break in if you have a wide foot, the longer you wear them the better they get I've found. I normally wear a size 11 shoe but have wide feet probably a EE width I think so I wear a 12 in the Fannings, I've tried the 11's but I can't start to get my feet in them. Hopefully this helps some of the people like me with wider feet.

I've been wearing my Reef Sandals for years. They are soft, comfy durable etc
The only issue is that after a while they soak up a STINKY ODOR and then will never stop reeking...OMG...the Company needs to do something about this...I'd love to exchange mine for a new pair it's sooo bad. My wife can't take it!

I'm on my 3rd set of these pimps, i've been rocking them for years. soft, comfy durable etc
the only issue is that after a while they soak up some stink and then will never stop reeking.

Before my dog chewed my old pair these were the best flip flops I have ever owned. I mean, air soles, arch support soft straps AND a bottle opener? Niiiice.

PS- Check for crap before opening bottles.

good beach shoes, returned because I was between sizes

The material is great! Very durable and this sandal definitely lasts a LONG time. The problem that I have with these sandals is that the material promotes your feet to smell. I would not buy again.

I own 2 pairs, and by far my favorite footwear. I highly recommend. I did need to buy my second pair one size down. They were a little tight at first but now fit perfectly.

The Reef Fanning flip flop is one of the best around. The support and padding is great. The bottle opener comes in handy during the summer.

comfortable, stylish, held up very well in all weather so far.

Can't go wrong with em

I have tried alot of sandals but the most comfortable and of course the biggest hit at a party are the Reef Fanning Sandals. Can't get enough, I just wish I lived somewhere I could wear them all year long!!

Comfortable, stylish, so far no complaints! Ordered them online, and they delivered in good time. Definitely would suggest these for anyone looking to buy a pair of quality sandals.

Reef sandals have been the most comfortable chongs I've ever owned and the Fannings still live up to those high standards. The best part is, with the high standard of comfort comes the equally high standard of style. A great sandal all around; you'd be foolish not to at least want to try a pair on. Get hooked.

i got the white pair and love them. i can walk in them all day and have no problems. the only problem is that i wear a 10.5 shoe and went with the 11 sandal... its a little loose over the top of my foot. not enough flip for the amount of flop if ya know what i mean

My boyfriend loves these sandals! I just bought them because I liked the design! He says they are extremely comfortable and stylish!

My husband hates flip flops but I bought him these for a cruise we are going on and he loves them. I ended up buying him another pair with the flask.

I'm wearing mine right now as I write this review. They're very well made and have lasted me a couple years already. Since just about anything solid can be used as a bottle opener I don't see any point in having them in the flip flops. It was a fun novelty when I first got them, but they cause me to slip on rocks and get caught on my clipless pedals on my mountain bike. That, and mud, rocks and anything else you can step in get caught up in them, so I probably wouldn't want to use them on anything I put my mouth on. They're reaching a point now where the material between my toes is stretched out, so it's time for a new pair. The DC Cabo sandals are very similar and don't have the bottle opener, so I'll probably go with those next.

will buy more, easy to break in.

Ladies love them.

I bought these for my boyfriend. He LOVED them and so did all his friend. They all went out and bought a pair. It's the handy little bottle opener that did them all in.

On my second pair right now and I really like them. The girls dig them, great conversation peice and the bottle opener works wonders when your at the beach or on the lake wakeboarding and need a cold one. I recommened wearing them on those social days and a cheaper pair on a Day to Day bases...
Pros:
-Bottle Opener
-Air Soul
-Sweet Design
Cons:
-The white strip around the heels starts to wear down with time
-The plastic soul cracked right in half across the bottle opener when walking over some rocks at the beach.
-Price
Hope that helps.

I'm sure I'll love them, if summer ever shows up. Too bad the dog can't ship that up here!!!

No matter what your doing, chillin at the beach,
hanging out at the skatepark, or walking around the city. These things have really great support for all types of foot arches. With the plastic built-in bottle opener the sandal never turns into a sponge, that happens with most!

definitly one of the most comfy flops i have ever worn. The bottle opener is definetly a pro for those days when you dumm friend forgets one or dont have a key chain opener. all in all great sandal everyone should get them but not in white (girlfriend says white is a lame color).

great sandal, had them for years and still hold up

I have had a few different pairs of Reef sandals before, but these Fanning's are my favorite yet. The bottle opener is a nice extra, plus they seem to stay on my feet much easier than any other sandal has. The foot bed is textured, so your foot doesn't slip around, and stays put much better.

Dude, these Reefs are by far the best flip flops I've ever had. Comfortable and stylish are pretty important, but you should see the chicks rush around me when I demonstrate the bottle opener on the bottom. The first time I did it, I got a chick all wet...from beer, of course. Drop what you are doing and buy 10 pair now!

I bought these sandals as a surprise for my husband and he loves them. Not only are they extremely comfortable, but he has a lot of fun showing everyone that he can open a bottle with his shoe.

comfy and cool! Keep making 'em, I'll keep buying 'em. Just get them 1 size bigger than you actually are and perfecto!

I already have several pairs of these sandals because they are the most comfortable sandals on earth. I don't drink much, but the bottle opener has come in handy around the house and is always a hit at parties/camping etc. It's built into the sole so it doesn't stick out and scratch things/rip chunks out of your hardwood floors. I just got the 4 pairs of these I ordered and I have to say they look even better than they do in the pictures. These were on sale and such a good deal. To put it into perspective I paid about $70CDN/pair for my old ones and I bought all 4 pairs of these including shipping/customs etc for $150CDN. So I pretty much bought them for half off. Not to mention they shipped next business day and were here within a week. Even at full price these are a steal!! Stock up while you can.
