Reef mens Reef Anchor Flip Flop 8

OMG, I am in love with these Reef Anchor flip-flops. A little backstory: I am an ocean guy; a scuba diver; a former ocean lifeguard. For years, my go-to flippies were Reef Twinpins - you know, the ones with the super comfortable, squishy footbed. Then one day, I was in Nassau, Bahamas and after it rained my old Twinpins failed me on some wet marble steps, and I slipped … all the way to the bottom. So I switched flip flops to a brand made by a famous boat shoe maker, because they had anti-slip soles. They were fine, but even after I broke them in they were heavy, and never as comfortable as my Reefs. In fact, I kicked them off to walk the beach in Costa Rica, only to find myself in downtown Tamarindo one day with no shoes. So I ducked into a local shop and came out with another pair of … you guessed it, Twinpins. Bliss. Fast forward to recently, and those Costa Rican Reef flippies were worn flat on the bottom. I decided to try to find the comfort of the Twinpins and the grippy bottom of the other brand, and these Anchors are it. They are supremely comfortable. The textured footbed is like a foot massage. The arch sits right where it is supposed to, and take it from someone with a ruptured disc in my back, the air cushion in the heels do their job. So far, the soles are nice and grippy on boat decks and wet surfaces. Oh, and they don’t make a loud “Flip-flop” sound, because they fit your feet so well. Take it from me - my license plate used to say, “FLPFLPZ,” the Reef Anchors are winners, and affordable, too.
