So, long story short...

While Ryan Soucie was looking for new sandals

Ryan Soucie made the mistake of

buying a pair of Reef's w/ the suede material.

My Advice to You is

to find a more durable sandal.

Here's the whole story

I love sandals, especially Reef's. So I bought a new pair of Reef Hamik's about a month ago. They were light brown, comfortable, and had a pseudo-suede material. Sold. Little did I realize that the suede would rip apart within such a short amount of time. Most of the damage was in the heavier stressed areas of walking -- the big toe and the ball of the foot. This tore up my feet pretty bad. And that's saying something. I didn't think it was possible for me to get a blister anymore -- the bottom of my feet are practically the soles of a shoe. My advice to you is to find a more suitable sandal, like one with oiled natural leather with a woven strap. Ahhh, soothing...
