The fashion
show features Reef’s Rover Collection
in head-to-toe outfits, reflective of Reef’s Just Passing Through mentality. Styles are relaxed yet cool, recalling laidback summers and great waves. The
footwear highlights Reef Swellular™ Technology which is made up of three
distinct layers.

First is a super-soft, contoured Swellular foam deck for comfort, then a medium-density Swellular midsole for support and finally, Reef’s signature Swellular high-density rubber outsole.
“The Outsole is an example of Reef’s commitment to form and function, with tread patterns that mimic lines of ocean waves and ultimate comfort, support, traction, and versatility,” said Carlo Dionisio of Reef Philippines.
Reef was formed in the early 80’s by Argentinian brothers Fernando Aguerre and Santi Aguerre. Combining their strong entrepreneurial spirit with their passion for surfing, the brothers built Reef as the top sandal brand in La Jolla, California.

Their innovative sandal design, the Striped Smoothy, known for its bold stripes and comfortable foot
bed, has become a classic and continues to be a top seller.
Today, Reef is
a worldwide name in surfing that has grown beyond sandals. Reef has become an
authentic surf brand offering men, women’s and kids’ innovative footwear and
apparel.
“Reef is a core
surf company. We create authentic, comfortable and innovative products intended
to inspire the surfer in all of us,” said Carlo.

Surf 7107-La Union is a documentary produced by Reef that follows Filipino surfers in La
Union. The positive impact of surfing in a small town where one of the
country’s first surf schools was opened becomes evident. The community thrives
as it grows into a tourist destination with surfing as the key attraction.
There are job opportunities for surfing instructors as schools open, not to
mention the related business generated from these activities.

Surf 7107 is about surfing in the
Philippines, and how much surfing has impacted lesser known places around the
country, and has turned these places into booming and burgeoning surf
destinations and tourist havens. The first of hopefully many documentaries, it
starts in La Union where the first ever surf school in the country was born.
There is a
market for surf brands out there, and it's getting bigger and bigger. Here's
hoping that this Reef-produced documentary changes things, and brings Reef into
the forefront as the leading surf brand out there.

“Reef is
a surf brand that not only cares about surfing and the lifestyle that goes
with it, but also cares about the communities it helps and touches through
surfing competitions, events, and environmental activities. This is the call to
action of this documentary produced and supported by Reef Philippines,” he
added.
