Product FAQs

WHO IS THE REEF FANNING BEST FOR?

The Fanning is ideal for men who want more cushioning and arch support than a traditional flat flip-flop. Its supportive EVA footbed, heel airbag, and durable traction make it a versatile choice for beach days, travel, casual walking, and everyday wear.

DOES THE REEF FANNING HAVE ARCH SUPPORT?

Yes. The Fanning features anatomical arch support built into its compression-molded EVA footbed, providing additional structure and support beneath the foot.

IS THE REEF FANNING WATER-FRIENDLY?

REEF currently markets versions of the Fanning as water-friendly, and its synthetic nubuck construction makes it appropriate for beach and waterside use. However, REEF's care instructions advise against soaking the synthetic nubuck upper, so it is better suited to casual waterside wear than prolonged water immersion.

HOW DOES THE REEF FANNING FIT?

REEF offers the Fanning in men's whole sizes. If you're between sizes, REEF currently recommends sizing down.

WHAT ARE THE KEY FEATURES OF THE REEF FANNING?

The Fanning features a synthetic nubuck upper, padded jersey lining, compression-molded EVA footbed, anatomical arch support, 360° heel airbag, herringbone rubber outsole, non-marking traction, and REEF's signature built-in bottle opener.
