Twist Sandals Built for All-Day Comfort
The Reef Cushion Vista Hi Twist is a women's platform slide sandal that delivers genuine underfoot support alongside a statement silhouette. The elevated 2.5-inch EVA platform lifts the foot without adding weight, while the cushioned footbed and heel-cupping design work together to keep every step comfortable from morning to evening. Whether you're heading to the beach or running errands, this sandal is engineered to move with you.
Signature Twist Strap Design
The defining feature of the Cushion Vista Hi Twist is its braided twist strap across the toe box. The interlinked loops give the sandal a sculptural, elevated look that stands apart from a standard single-band slide. A second smooth forefoot strap anchors the fit and adds a clean contrast element to the overall design. Both straps are lined in synthetic material for a soft, friction-free feel against the skin.
Platform Construction and Outsole
The entire midsole and platform are built from lightweight, durable EVA, which absorbs impact and resists wear through extended use. The open round toe keeps the silhouette relaxed and casual. Beneath the platform, a lugged rubber outsole pattern provides the grip needed on wet tile, poolside decking, or uneven sidewalks. The Reef wordmark is embossed into the footbed alongside the brand's wave logo, confirming the heritage build quality behind the sandal.
Reef Brand Heritage
Reef was founded by brothers Fernando and Santiago Aguerre, entrepreneurs from South America with deep ties to surf and beach culture. Their goal was straightforward: build a high-quality active lifestyle sandal. Production began in 1984 in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and the brand quickly established itself as a leader in open-toe footwear. More than 40 years later, that same commitment to beach-ready comfort and durable construction drives every Reef product, including the Cushion Vista Hi Twist.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What makes the Reef Cushion Vista Hi Twist different from a standard slide sandal?
- The Cushion Vista Hi Twist features a distinctive braided twist strap across the toe box rather than a plain single band, giving it a more sculptural, fashion-forward look. It also sits on a 2.5-inch EVA platform with a lugged outsole and a cushioned, heel-cupping footbed, adding both lift and all-day support that a flat slide typically does not offer.
- Is the Reef Cushion Vista Hi Twist comfortable for extended wear?
- Yes. The sandal is built with a cushioned EVA footbed, a heel-cupping design to cradle and stabilize the foot, and a lightweight EVA platform that absorbs impact without adding bulk. The synthetic lining minimizes friction against the skin, making it a practical choice for wearing throughout the day.
- What is the platform height on the Reef Cushion Vista Hi Twist?
- The platform measures 2.5 inches. It is constructed from EVA, keeping the overall sandal lightweight despite the elevated height.
- Are the Reef Cushion Vista Hi Twist sandals suitable for wet or slippery surfaces?
- The lugged outsole on the Cushion Vista Hi Twist provides added grip on wet tile, poolside surfaces, and other slippery ground compared to a smooth-bottom slide. As with any platform sandal, extra care is advisable on especially uneven or wet terrain.
- Where can I buy the Reef Cushion Vista Hi Twist womens sandal?
- The Reef Cushion Vista Hi Twist is available at Island Water Sports in store and online. Select your option from the picker above to check availability and complete your purchase.
- What is Reef's background as a brand?
- Reef was founded by brothers Fernando and Santiago Aguerre, who started production in Sao Paulo, Brazil in 1984 with the goal of building a premium active lifestyle sandal rooted in surf and beach culture. The brand became a leader in open-toe footwear and has maintained that focus for over 40 years.
- How do I care for the Reef Cushion Vista Hi Twist sandals?
- Rinse the sandals with fresh water after exposure to salt water or sand and allow them to air dry away from direct heat. Wipe the footbed and straps with a damp cloth to remove dirt. Avoid prolonged submersion or machine washing, as this can affect the EVA and synthetic strap materials over time.
