FAQs

What is the warranty period for REEF Fanning Flip-Flops?

All Reef products, including the Fanning Flip-Flops, are covered by a manufacturer defect policy for up to one year from the date of purchase.

Are these flip-flops suitable for swimming or water sports?

While they are water-friendly and suitable for beachwear, they are designed primarily for casual wear and may not offer the necessary support or grip for strenuous water sports.

How do I clean the EVA footbed?

You can clean the EVA footbed with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Rinse gently and allow to air dry completely away from direct sunlight or heat.

Does the bottle opener on the outsole affect comfort?

The bottle opener is integrated into the outsole design and is generally not noticeable during normal wear. It is designed not to interfere with the comfort of the footbed.

What materials are the straps made from?

The straps are made from a mix of premium strap materials, featuring a soft padded jersey lining for enhanced comfort.

Can I wear these for long walks?

The compression-molded EVA footbed with an airbag provides good cushioning for casual walking. However, for very long distances or activities requiring significant support, dedicated walking shoes might be more suitable.

Where are Reef sandals made?

Reef sandals are designed in the USA and manufactured globally, with a focus on quality and comfort.

Troubleshooting

Flip-flops feel too tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. The EVA footbed may take a short period to break in and conform to your foot shape. Wearing them for short durations initially can help.

Straps are causing irritation.

The soft padded jersey lining is designed to minimize irritation. Ensure there are no debris trapped under the lining. If irritation persists, consider an alternative sandal design.

Outsole shows wear and tear.

The non-marking rubber outsole is durable for casual use. Avoid excessive abrasion on rough surfaces. If significant wear occurs, it may be time to replace the flip-flops.

Bottle opener is difficult to use.

The bottle opener is designed for standard bottle caps. Ensure the bottle cap is properly positioned within the opener. It may require a firm, upward pull.
