FAQs

Are Reef Ginger Flip-Flops suitable for extended walking?

Yes, with their triple-layer comfort system (super-soft foam deck, medium-density midsole, and high-density rubber outsole), Reef Ginger Flip-Flops are designed to provide good support and cushioning for daily wear and extended periods of walking on typical surfaces. For very long distances or varied, rugged terrain, more structured footwear might be preferable.

Can I wear these flip-flops in the water?

Absolutely! The Reef Ginger Flip-Flops are specifically designed to be water-friendly. Their synthetic EVA construction and rubber sole make them perfect for use at the beach, by the pool, or in other wet environments without sustaining damage.

How do I clean my Reef Ginger Flip-Flops?

Cleaning is simple: you can wipe them down with a damp cloth and mild soap, or rinse them under water. Allow them to air dry completely in a shaded area after cleaning. Avoid using harsh chemicals or placing them in direct, intense sunlight for drying.

Do these flip-flops provide good arch support?

The Reef Ginger features a contoured foam deck and a medium-density midsole for comfortable support. While they offer good general foot comfort, they may not provide rigid, clinical-grade arch support for individuals with specific orthopedic needs. They are designed for general comfort and casual wear.

What are the straps made of?

The straps on the Reef Ginger Flip-Flops are made from a soft, woven material. This design ensures comfort against your skin and helps prevent chafing, even after prolonged wear.

Are Reef Ginger Flip-Flops true to size?

Reef footwear generally aims for true-to-size fit. However, as with any footwear, individual foot shapes can vary. We recommend selecting your standard UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, it's often best to consult a sizing chart or try them on if possible. This specific product is UK size 11.

Troubleshooting

Straps feel too tight or rub against my foot.

The soft woven straps are designed to conform to your foot over time. If they feel tight initially, wear them for shorter periods to 'break them in.' Ensure you have the correct size, as a too-small size can exacerbate this issue. If discomfort persists, gently stretch the straps with your hands.

My feet feel slippery inside the flip-flop, especially when wet.

While the Reef Ginger features a contoured foam deck, natural foot moisture can sometimes cause slight slippage. Ensure your feet are as dry as possible before wearing. The high-density rubber outsole provides excellent exterior traction, but the footbed may feel less grippy when very wet. Allow them to dry thoroughly after water exposure.

The flip-flops make a 'squeaky' sound when I walk.

This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between your foot and the footbed, or between different layers of the sole. Try drying your feet completely before wearing. If the squeak persists, a light dusting of talcum powder or cornstarch on the footbed might help absorb moisture and reduce friction.

My flip-flops are starting to show signs of wear and tear quickly.

The Reef Ginger is built for durability, but intense use can accelerate wear. Ensure you are following proper care instructions, including cleaning and drying. Avoid exposing them to extremely hot surfaces (like black asphalt in direct sun for prolonged periods) or sharp objects that could damage the materials. Rotate with other footwear if you wear them daily for strenuous activities.

Care Instructions

To ensure the longevity and freshness of your Reef Ginger Flip-Flops:

  1. Cleaning: As they are water-friendly, cleaning is straightforward. Gently wipe down the straps and soles with a damp cloth and mild soap. For deeper cleaning, they can be rinsed under water.
  2. Drying: After cleaning or exposure to water, allow them to air dry completely in a shaded area. Avoid direct prolonged sunlight or artificial heat sources, as this could potentially affect the material's integrity or color.
  3. Storage: Store your flip-flops in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
  4. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use strong detergents, bleach, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the synthetic EVA and rubber materials.
