HAVAIANAS

Havaianas started as a humble flip flop shop in Sao Paulo, Brazil over 60 years ago. They’re best known for their rubber-soled sandals. The simple yet iconic design was inspired by traditional Japanese Zori- a thin-soled sandal made of rice straw and fabric. For nearly 30 years Havaianas stuck with the Tradicional style and only offered 4 color choices.

Then came the 90s.

The company began experimenting with a variety of colors, styles, and personal customizations. Now, the company sells over 252 million pairs every year in over 100 countries. So, if you don’t already own a pair, what are you waiting for? They have a nice selection of puffy sandals, slip-ons, backstrap sandals and square-toe flip flops.
