Down here in Houston, flip-flops are a commonly worn year-round item. My favorite pair were obtained in Destin, FL some 7 years ago. They were Reef and lasted quite a while (until the traction finally wore off). I decided to go with Reef again and purchased these. They are really comfortable and allow sure footing. I've been wearing them for a couple of weeks now and they don't rub poorly or cause blistering. I usually order size 10 in shoes and decided to order 10 for these as well. They fit great. There is more margin around my toes/heel than I am used to , but it doesn't trip me up or anything. Highly recommended!
