FAQs
What are the primary materials used in the Reef Fanning Sandals?
The upper is made from a mix of premium strap materials, lined with soft padded jersey. The footbed is compression molded EVA with a built-in airbag, and the outsole is non-marking rubber.
How do I clean my Fanning Sandals?
Clean them with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry away from direct sunlight or heat.
Is the bottle opener durable?
The bottle opener is integrated into the non-marking rubber outsole, designed for functionality. Like any tool, its longevity depends on usage and care.
Are these sandals suitable for swimming or water sports?
While the materials can handle occasional water exposure, they are not designed specifically for prolonged submersion or high-impact water sports. They are best suited for beach and casual wear.
What is the benefit of the airbag in the footbed?
The airbag is designed to provide extra cushioning and shock absorption underfoot, enhancing overall comfort during extended wear.
Can I wear these sandals for long walks?
Yes, the comfortable EVA footbed and airbag cushioning make them suitable for casual, long walks. However, they are not designed as performance walking or running shoes.
What does 'non-marking' mean for the outsole?
A non-marking outsole is designed to provide good traction without leaving scuff marks or dark residue on indoor flooring surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel too tight or loose.
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. For minor adjustments, the strap materials may slightly conform with wear, but a significant fit issue may indicate the need for a different size.
Discomfort after prolonged wear.
While designed for comfort, ensure the footbed is clean and free of debris. If discomfort persists, consider that these are primarily for casual use and not intended for athletic performance.
Bottle opener is difficult to use.
Ensure the bottle cap is properly positioned under the opener. The opener is designed for standard crown caps and may require a firm, steady upward motion.
Squeaking sound from the footbed.
This can sometimes occur due to moisture or air trapped in the footbed or airbag. Try ensuring the sandals are completely dry. A small amount of talcum powder applied sparingly to the footbed might also help reduce squeaking.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
