Had them for two years. Loved the flip flops for their comfort and performance. Tread held up well. Unfortunately the toe post just pulled out of one. I’ve now flipped on my opinion of the quality. Quite disappointed that they failed so soon.

I've always worn Havaianas, but got sick of them breaking, so decided to try some Reefs. The Fanning 2.0 is a rugged and comfortable shoe and fits my feet, which are wide. I got them for general wear out and about, not for any special activities. I don't particularly need the bottle opener on the sole (and wasn't aware it was there until they arrived), but it doesn't bother me.Delivery time was pretty good, too!

I purchased these sandals to replace my older Fanning 1.0. I have owned at least 7 or 8 pairs of rates and I keep coming back to them due to how comfortable they are and the unique bottle opener I the sole. They feature an air bag sole system which for a 250lb guy feels great. I have sued the bottle opener works great and is always a conversation starter. The opener is recessed and only touches the edge of the cap when using so you down have to worry about contaminating your drink.With this model they have moved back the thong that goes between your toes which moves your heal back further. They look a little small but will stretch. You might consider getting a size up.

I got these as house shoes and to run out to the car which requires 3 flights of stairs. So, I haven't beach tested these but I'm sure they would be great. I like how well they stay on and I particularly like the grippieness against the bottom of my foot. They're very heavy duty for a flip flop so I'm sure they will last me a very long time. They would be very nice for the beach as well.
Bought a pair similar to these, but the same brand a couple of years ago. They're kinda worn out so I figured they were in need of being replaced. I literally put them back to back with these and the old ones are longer (size 14) and wider then these are. I have wide feet so I appreciate the extra width. They feel too narrow now.
Love these flip-flops. Been wearing Reef Fanning sandals for years. They are quite durable, and the bottle opener has come in handy on many occasion. The ones in this listing are generation 2, with the new (better) sole material that is not as slippery on smooth surfaces. They fit as expected and provide adequate cushion for longer walks.
I purchased these with the hope of better fitting and more comfort.What I have got is very tight and certainly not the same feel for the similar size in other brands.Also, I dont know why they put a bottle opener under these. It is useless and ridiculous to me as I wouldn't open a bottle with an opener that has been dragged on the ground.
Overall the flip flops are well made and comfortable. The straps are a bit loose and the flip flop can slide off when walking if not careful. I didn't even realize there was a bottle opener in the sole. This is a useless feature and the shoe would be better off without it as it might contribute to the bulkiness of the sole.
Quality of materials have been downgraded from those used in the past by Reef. Unit bottom was cheapened and upper material is now synthetic instead of leather as in the past.
Just started wearing them. They seem well built, solid. Decent support, esp. in the heel. Second pair from Reef. They last. My only concern is that the material feels a bit rigig on the inside against my foot. I hope this softens over time.
