Reef Fanning Slide H2O Mens Sandal
Pickup currently unavailable at BSS
Built for Water, Worn All Day
The Reef Fanning Slide H2O is a men's slide sandal engineered to move from the water to the street without missing a beat. Reef's H2O construction means the materials handle wet environments as naturally as dry ones, making this the go-to slide for beach days, pool decks, boat trips, and everything in between.
The wide single-strap design locks your foot in place without constriction, while the marbled EVA midsole and outsole deliver a cushioned, lightweight ride that holds up from sunrise to sunset. The Reef logo is debossed on the strap for a clean, understated look that fits every setting.
Reef Heritage
Reef was founded in 1984 by brothers Fernando and Santiago Aguerre, who moved from South America to Southern California with a clear mission: build a high-quality active lifestyle sandal for people who live for surf and beach culture. Production launched in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and the original Reef sandal went on to define the open-toe footwear category. Over 30 years later, the same founding principles -- quality construction, beach-first function, and unpretentious style -- drive every product Reef makes.
H2O Construction
The H2O designation signals a sandal built to get wet. The footbed, strap, and outsole are all composed of water-friendly materials that dry quickly, resist odor, and do not degrade from repeated exposure to salt water, chlorine, or fresh water. There is no fabric lining to trap moisture and no metal hardware to corrode. The result is a slide you can wear straight into the ocean and back out again without any performance penalty.
Comfort Underfoot
The contoured EVA footbed provides arch support and cushioning across the full contact area of the foot. EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate) is a closed-cell foam that resists compression over time, meaning the slide stays comfortable after repeated use rather than packing out flat. The outsole carries the same EVA blend into a durable traction layer that grips wet surfaces without feeling sticky or heavy on dry ground.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the Reef Fanning Slide H2O waterproof?
- Yes. The H2O designation means the sandal is built with water-ready materials throughout -- footbed, strap, and outsole -- so it handles salt water, chlorine, and fresh water without degrading. It dries quickly and resists odor after repeated water exposure.
- Can I wear the Reef Fanning Slide H2O to the beach?
- Absolutely. The Fanning Slide H2O is purpose-built for beach and water environments. The EVA construction tolerates sand and salt water, and the outsole grips wet surfaces, making it a natural choice for beach days, pool decks, and boat decks.
- How does the Reef Fanning Slide H2O fit?
- The wide single-strap design holds the foot securely without squeezing. The contoured EVA footbed cradles the arch. Use the variant picker to select your size -- Reef men's slides follow standard men's US sizing.
- What is the Fanning Slide H2O footbed made of?
- The footbed is made of EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate), a closed-cell foam that provides cushioning and arch support while resisting compression over time. It holds up to daily use and repeated water exposure.
- How do I clean the Reef Fanning Slide H2O?
- Rinse with fresh water after salt water or pool use. The all-EVA construction dries quickly. For deeper cleaning, scrub with mild soap and water, then air dry out of direct sunlight.
