Title: Not As Good, But Not Bad
Review: Approx. 5 years ago, I purchased 4-5 pair of Reef Ginger flips. Love them, still wear them all very frequently, and they're all in pretty good shape. Cute, durable materials, comfortable, with good arch support. By every metric, this new generation is of lower quality than my older ones. The sole is thinner and the arch support is not quite as, well, supportive. B/W zebra-striped straps on my new model are significantly narrower than older Reefs with webbing straps feat. rubber Reef logo patch. Sole-to-sole comparison of new v. old, both size 8, shows that new is almost 1/2" shorter than old. New sole is a little narrower heel to toe, which I think is the only improvement. A little disappointed, but I'm still a Reefs girl, now available in zebra stripes.
