The REEF Story
We're in a long term relationship with the beach.
In 1984, brothers Fernando and Santiago Aguerre founded REEF out of their love for the beach and surfing. They wanted to make high-quality, ultra-comfortable products that fit their lifestyle—so they created sandals that could effortlessly take them from the beach to the streets and everywhere in between. Today, REEF sandals are more than just a footwear choice. It’s a pursuit of the REEF DREAM.
Thoughtful Materials

Natural materials
We use materials like cotton, jute, genuine cork, and wood elements to craft a product derived from elements of nature.

Eco-foams
A percentage of recycled content is in our EVA and rubber compounds. In addition we added a bio-based EVA derived from renewable sugar cane sourced in Brazil to our midsoles.

Responsibly sourced leathers
100% of our leathers and suedes are from tanneries with gold or silver ratings with a majority being ISA lite (low impact to the environment) leathers.
