REEF, the brand known for combining laid-back style with clever innovation, has reimagined its legendary sandal into a sleek, functional trainer.
The new REEF Fanning Shoe is a 1990s-inspired silhouette designed for everything from chilled weekends to spontaneous parties, and yes, it still features the signature built-in bottle opener in the sole.
With a breathable mesh upper, cushioned tongue, high-rebound EVA foam midsole and a newly designed TPU insole, the Fanning Shoe delivers all-day comfort and support. Whether you’re heading to the boardwalk, firing up the BBQ, or hitting a rooftop bar, this trainer has you covered with effortless style and a hidden party trick.
REEF’s iconic Fanning Sandal, first launched in 2005, remains a global favourite, a flip-flop that’s as comfortable as it is functional, complete with that famous bottle opener in the sole.
To celebrate the UK launch of the Fanning Shoe, we’ve teamed up with REEF to give one lucky winner the chance to get both: a pair of the new Fanning Shoes and a pair of Fanning Sandals from reefsandals.co.uk.
