FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for hiking?
No, the Reef Fanning sandals are designed for casual wear and comfort. They do not provide the necessary support, traction, or protection for hiking or rugged terrain.
How do I use the built-in bottle opener?
Position the bottle cap firmly against the designated opener on the heel of the sandal and lever upwards to open.
What material is the footbed made of?
The footbed is made of compression-molded EVA foam with a padded jersey lining for comfort and support.
Can I wear these sandals in salt water?
While the materials are generally durable, prolonged exposure to salt water is not recommended as it can degrade materials over time. Rinse with fresh water and air dry if exposed.
What is the 360-degree heel airbag?
It's an air pocket enclosed in soft polyurethane within the heel of the sandal, designed to provide extra cushioning and shock absorption.
Do these sandals come in other colors?
Yes, the Reef Fanning series is available in a variety of colorways. Please check the product listings for available options.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel too tight or loose
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. As these are slip-on sandals, some adjustment to fit will occur with wear. If excessively uncomfortable, consider a different size or model.
Bottle opener is difficult to use
The bottle opener is designed to function with standard bottle caps. Ensure the cap is positioned correctly on the opener. Some initial stiffness may occur, which should ease with use.
Soles feel slippery in wet conditions
While the rubber outsole provides grip, extreme wet surfaces can reduce traction. Exercise caution in very slippery conditions. Ensure the soles are free of mud or debris for optimal grip.
