More Height, More Comfort: The Reef Cushion Vista Higher Platform Sandal
The Reef Cushion Vista Higher takes everything that made the Vista Hi a fan favorite and pushes it further. The platform climbs to a full 2.5 inches, carried by a chunky lug EVA outsole with exaggerated notch detailing. The silhouette is bold and architectural without sacrificing the all-day wearability Reef has built its reputation on since 1984.
Upper Construction
The two-strap slide upper is crafted from super-soft, unlined PVC-free vegan leather. The open-toe, backless slide format means no break-in period. The straps are wide enough to feel secure on the foot while keeping the overall profile clean and versatile. A small embossed Reef metal badge accent sits on the lower strap.
Reef's Most Cushioned Footbed
This sandal features what Reef calls its most comfortable footbed, engineered for the ideal balance of cushion and rebound. The shape runs wider than a standard footbed and delivers generous arch support along the midfoot plus deep heel cupping at the rear. The result is a footbed that actually supports your foot over a full day of wear, not just for the first hour. Select options feature a 100% natural footbed cover, a sustainability-forward material choice.
Chunky Lug EVA Platform Outsole
The lightweight EVA outsole defines the sandal's visual identity. At 2.5 inches, the platform silhouette creates real height without the rigidity of a wedge or the instability of a thin stiletto. The lug pattern along the perimeter provides grip and that chunky, exaggerated notch detail that made the Vista Higher platform sandal a standout in Reef's lineup.
Reef Brand Heritage
Reef's 30-year heritage was born out of an idea by Fernando and Santiago Aguerre, entrepreneur brothers from South America with a love of surf and beach culture, to create a high-quality active lifestyle sandal. They set up production in Sao Paulo, Brazil in 1984, producing the iconic sandal that made Reef the leader in open-toe footwear. That same commitment to quality construction and wearable design carries through every pair of Cushion Vista Higher sandals.
Who the Cushion Vista Higher Is For
This is a platform sandal for women who want genuine height without giving up comfort. The cushioned footbed with arch support makes it a realistic choice for extended wear, whether you are heading to a beach town boardwalk, running weekend errands, or dressing up a casual outfit. The slide format and wide vegan leather straps keep it easy to slip on and confident on the foot.
