I have a different model of Reef sandals that are very good and extremely comfortable, but these are not. I don't know if the strap is different material, or if it has been sewn differently, but wearing these gave me blisters and rubbed holes in the tops of my feet around the toes. I am not able to put my finger on exactly why, maybe because they were new, but in five days of wearing these on vacation, I never felt comfortable, and was often conscious of the discomfort. I try to be optimistic, maybe I got lemons, or maybe Reef missed on this particular design.
