Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I have had multiple pairs of Reef sandals prior to purchasing these, and have never had an issue with them. To begin with, the size (despite being the same size that I always order) was a little on the small side, as my toes managed to hang over the edge. But that isn't my biggest concern. My biggest concern comes from the fact that my sandals have completely destroyed themselves in less than a few weeks after receiving them. The soles have become completely unglued from the rest of the shoe, and the rubber section (where the foot actually rests) has shrunk by a few inches at least compared to its original size. This happened because my shoes were left outside, just as I have done with all of my sandals before these. I've barely worn them outside of my backyard, so this is definitely not a result of overuse (and seeing that my other pairs usually lasted me 2+ years, I doubt that's even possible in such a short amount of time) I'm not sure if Amazon supplied me with some sort of counterfeit Reefs, or if the quality in these sandals has drastically fallen. I will certainly be hesitant to order another pair of Reef sandals, despite having enjoyed many pairs before, seeing as these were nothing more than a waste of money. If you are planning on using these in any kind of environment where they may encounter heat (such as the beach, which you would expect a sandal should be able to handle....), be aware that you will most likely be shopping for a new pair of sandals soon enough.
