My mother in law gave me a pair of reef flip flops a couple years ago for mothers day and I was like ohh cute sparkles and then after wearing them a couple times they quickly became my go to flip flops alllll summer! To help I gave each one of them a good wrap of tennis grip tape and that works great for overcoming this. Then suddenly, without reason. I purchased this style of Yellow Box flip flops even though other customers were saying the shoe falls apart. The workmanship is very good as well. I love these particular sandals and just purchased another pair. I keep seeing VR enabled games more and more, which is a great sign. These have been great! Can be worn comfortably all day. When traveling I pack it to take with me.
