Detailed Review
When it comes to summer footwear, the Volcom Men's Victor Flip-Flop Sandals stand out for several reasons. The comfort provided by the RCF cold-press molded EVA footbed ensures that your feet feel cushioned all day long, whether you're walking on the boardwalk or lounging at home. Additionally, the synthetic nubuck strap feels gentle against your skin, reducing the risk of chafing commonly associated with cheaper flip-flops.
In terms of style, these sandals don’t disappoint. The black color combined with vibrant midsole accents makes them versatile enough to pair with shorts, swim trunks, or even casual pants. This flexibility allows you to wear them on various occasions without compromising on looks.
On the durability front, the Volcom Victor sandals are built to last. The non-scuff outsole not only provides good grip but also protects the surfaces you walk on from scratches. This feature is particularly useful for those who frequently transition between indoor and outdoor settings.
However, while they excel in many areas, it's essential to note that they aren't designed for heavy-duty activities like hiking. If your summer plans involve rugged terrains, you may want to consider other options.

User Reviews
These are the comfiest flip flops I’ve ever owned. They are well worth the money. They do run a little small like other reviewers have said. I usually were a 10 in flip flops so I ordered an 11 to be safe and they fit perfectly.
Perfectly rigid base and flexible top. Great insole support. Enjoyably smooth after the break-in. I own several pairs, from repeat purchases over the years. This product introduced me to Volcom. Now, I’m loyal.
My son has been a reef kid for a long time now. But they are pretty heavy and thick for some activities. He just loves extreme comfort, so I thought I’d give these a try. He’s a tween so sizing has been a pain. Too big for youth, too small for men’s.These fit perfect. They run a little short in length, size up if needed. Most importantly they are comfortable for him, not heavy, not flimsy, and he LOVES the camo.
I’m a Reef brand fan. I’ve had them, they last for a long time, and they don’t smell funky...too much. I bought these based on reviews and because I wanted to try something new. I’m pleased to have read the reviews on sizing. I mean I feel like I have a normal width foot, and I typically wear a 9.5. I read a few reviews that said that they ran a bit small in length. I took the advice and ordered a size 11, and I’m pleased with it. There’s about 1/2” to the edge at my toes, and about the same at my heel. That’s a long way of saying I’m glad I followed the advice to order a full size larger than I would normally. They’re a little snug on the top of my foot, but I suspect that goes away with a little wear and when they get wet.
I wear slippas 365 days a year and used to only wear reefs. I got a pair of these a few years back and have been rocking these ever since! Go through about 2 pairs a year but keep coming back. Most comfortable out there with out question
I bought these for my husband. He picked them out and said they fit and where just as he expected. He loves them.
These fit as expected and are comfortable to walk in. Sometimes my husband wears them all day and he feels comfortable in them.
My husband is very particular with his slippers and the style of the product and comfort is most important
