Still a great sandal but was hoping to get an identical replacement to my former pair. I ordered the same exact size but the new pair is shorter by quite a bit and narrower. Disappointing I can't replace them as they were my absolute favorite.

I was excited to see a replacement for my ancient reef flip flops. The new ones have the same top strap and texture on the foot bed. Unfortunately the sole is not the same and is very squeaky and less supportive. The old pair had to bottle opener on the bottom and had great support. Wish they would return to the original sole.

I love my older pair of Slap 3 made in Vietnam. Wanted new ones, but they are MADE IN CHINA now. How disappointing Reef!

I anxiously wait for my sandals to come in the mail, and they get here pretty quick, then I have to send back because the size is wrong, again! sending them back is very easy also, but I just can't keep going through the sizing problem. I'm sorry but I will have to find a store in Portland where maybe I can try them on in person. Thanks anyway

I love the cushion and the fit. I've had 3 pairs. Unfortunately, they break at the point were the toe piece connects to the sole of the sandal.

I ache for the original design. I have three pairs, identical, that are light blue with a white leather thong. I would kill for these. Somehow, product development should listen. I have asked and asked for these.

The slap flip flops I used to buy years ago fit better. The newer ones I bought fit tighter thru the arch midsection. They hurt when I walk. I should have ordered a bigger size I think.

I just bought my 5th pair of reefs, they are so comfy! But I always buy men's because of the bottle opener on bottom. That comes in so handy when our neighborhood has happy hour a few times a week!

I have been wearing this style Reefs for years and years. I was very disappointed with this new pair. I actually gave them away. I'm thinking the Reef company has a new manufacturer. My friend bought another style Reef flip flops, and one foot was super wide, the other foot fine. Somethings happening and I'm so sad about it because all I wear is Reef.

Not as narrow as the other shoes I purchased, but still needed a larger size.

These would be good if I didn’t need extra arch support. Size was good. Foot bed is soft and comfy for the short term, but I’d need more arch support if I want to wear these all day so I’m sending them back.

I wish they would put the sole in tennis shoes like the Slap 3 feel to walk on because that's the best walking sole I've ever had. I can walk all day on Slap 3's like Disneyland or Knottsberry Farm and can't with any other sole without my feet killing me at the end of the trip. A couple years ago they had more colors than they do now. My Grandson came home on a leave from the Navy and had bought Reef's over in Japan and gave me my first one's and I've been hooked on them ever since.

I ordered these because i have an earlier version that I love but that are getting worn out. These would be fine except that the front edge of the band that goes across the foot has a rough edge. They may smooth out over time, but I'm not going to experiment. I've returned them. Otherwise they're fine, and the edge may not bother other customers.

Ok style and fit,I like the old Reef style better, they've changed and are not as comfortable. I don't like the color schemes available much either.

I bought these sandals to wear to Disney World and walking the parks all day. They were super comfortable! The only problem was that I ended up developing an allergic reaction from them. I don't know if it was the threads they used or something in the fabric but I developed a poison ivy-like rash all along the areas where the edges of the straps touched my skin. Ugh!!

I had a pair for 7 years and the soles on these are the same. The fit is two sizes difference. I normally wear my Reefs every day, in both salt and fresh water as well as all day street wear. These require breaking in time when my old ones did not. I wish I could find the same Reef wear. The staff are very accommodating but I miss my Reefs now produced in a different country. I live in New England so have to order on line so no try ons

I thought there would be a little more arch support. I need the arch support to maintain my balance and I was a little disappointed to pay this much for a flip flop and not have the needed support. It is comfortable, but only for short walks as it is not supportive.

A little more snug than previous versions of the same sandal, but I'm sure they will stretch over time. I wish there were better color options.

This is my fourth pair of reefs! I love them. This pair however rubs on the top of my feet. I get reefs because I can wear them comfortably for extended periods of time. This is not the case with the ones I just purchased. They are the same size i always purchase

I was so disappointed in this flip flop. I have worn them for the past 4 years and needed a new pair. I have bought 2 pairs in the past both fitting perfect, NOT so this time. I ordered the same size as the past and they run short and a little snug across the top of my foot. I noticed that the past 2 pairs were marked Made in China and this new pair made in Taiwan they say size 11 (42.5) on the new ones the older pairs were marked 11 (43.0) I guess the sizing in Taiwan is different you would think that a company in the USA would be sure that the sizing was the same. Which btw I wear a 10 not 11. I guess that is what you get for cheaper labor and material. So to say the least these will be going back. I also wish they would have had more colors. Green does not do much for me. I would be nice to have just black or black with a design or different color such as grey,red,pink.

I love the original Slaps. I have a wide foot with a high arch and they fit perfectly and are very comfortable. The Slap 3 are a little stiffer, but that is ok. They problem I have is I ordered a 9 and the are too short. Unfortunately, I tried them on and I knew they were tight, but thought my feet were just swollen at the time. I threw away the tags and box as I was packing for vacation. Unfortunately, I realized too late they are shorter than the original Slaps. I would recommend to order up a size.

This is my third pair of Slaps. The first two versions had suede leather tops with soft knit synthetic linings. This third edition has an all rubbery plastic top. It is much stiffer when you first wear them, easing up over time. But I'm very disappointed. I usually wear an 8 or 38. For these I've always had to wear a 9 or 40.

Unfortunately these flip flops weren't as comfortable for me as the reviews made them seem. The arch support was weird, very tough and high and the side strap cut weird on my foot. Unfortunately I am returning these. They were cute though!

I love Reef flip flops, always have. They're very durable and long lasting. This year was the first time ever in owning Reef's though that I've come into a problem. If you leave them in the sun (say when you go to the pool or beach), they melt. Yes, melt! So just be aware of this. They shouldn't do this because they're known for being a beach sandal. I've never had a problem until now. I don't know if they've changed the materials or what, but just be aware. Luckily, when this did happen I contacted Zappos and told them what happened and they sent me a new pair the next day. Love Zappos customer service! 3 Stars overall for the melting issue.
