I live in Florida and live in my reefs and I'd rate these overall great! I have had many pairs over the years and unfortunately it seems they have done away with the comfortable materials that made such a squishy soft foot-bed. In the last few years they have started adding ridiculous things like beer bottle openers on the bottom which collects up junk and makes the soles hard.  I always bought reefs because of the soft soles and as they move away from what makes them "Reefs" I had almost all but given up on finding a pair to live in.  These however DO have some comfort factor and are well fitting and I love that the sole is dark (so it doesn't look so dirty as all white ones) and the top is white (which goes with everything).  It's made out of a waterproof material so it's beach worthy as well or gardening with them is OK as well.  The ONE downside to these is the toe piece is a LITTLE wider or something than most or something about it irritated my feet at first.  Not horribly, but if I wear them for the whole day at the skin between my toes is a little red and irritated. They may break in and this will disappear.  They have great support and overall - I'm happy with them and wearing them every warm day there is.  A good choice for reef lovers.  PS - No....they STILL aren't as soft and squishy as the originally "Slaps" or "Fanning".
