I ordered a pair to replace a five year old pair of Reefs that gave me very good service until the strap pulled out of the toe.  When the new pair arrived I examined them and they appeared to be a cut below in quality.  Since appearances can be deceiving,  I gave them a shot.  Within a few days it became apparent that the straps were cut and fitted in such a way that they caused my foot to rest somewhat crosswise on the sandals.  Not good.  Within a few more days the rubber padding between the leather foot pad and sole on one of the sandals fully compressed to the point that it no longer provided any cushioning.  At that point I threw in the towel and sent them back.  I have since replaced them with the equivalent model from Rainbow and they are wonderful; the Rainbows are what the Reefs should have been.  It's a shame that the once very high quality Reefs have been cheapened to where they are no longer a viable option for those looking for a long lasting pair of basic sandals.
