FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?

No, the Reef Neptune is designed as a casual and travel shoe. It does not offer the specialized support or cushioning required for running or high-impact sports.

How do I fold the heel?

The heel is designed to be flexible. Simply push it down towards the sole to fold it flat, making the shoe a slip-on sandal. Push it back up to wear it as a more secure shoe.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is made from a lightweight, breathable stretch knit material, with a fold-down heel made of suede.

Can I machine wash these shoes?

It is not recommended to machine wash the Reef Neptune. Hand washing or spot cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method to maintain the integrity of the materials, especially the suede and memory foam.

How does the sizing run?

The sizing generally runs true to standard adult shoe sizes. However, due to the stretch knit upper, there can be some flexibility. Refer to sizing charts if available, and consider the fit of similar Reef footwear if known.

What is the heel height?

The Reef Neptune features a flat heel height, providing comfort and stability for everyday wear.

Are these waterproof?

The materials used, particularly the knit upper and suede, are not inherently waterproof. While they may offer some resistance to light moisture, they are not designed for use in wet conditions.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too loose

While the primary closure is the slip-on design with a fold-over heel, ensure the laces are tied appropriately for a snug fit if adjustments are desired. If the shoe remains too loose, consider trying a half-size smaller if available.

Discomfort in the heel area

Ensure the heel is fully folded down or up as intended. The memory foam footbed may require a short break-in period. If discomfort persists, check for any internal seams or debris.

Suede looking matted or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap of the suede. For stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner. Applying a suede protector can help prevent future marks.

Slight odor after wear

Allow the shoes to air out completely between wears. Baking soda can be sprinkled inside overnight to absorb odors, then vacuumed out. Ensure feet are clean and dry before wearing.
