Havaianas earns largely positive reviews as a dependable, stylish flip-flop brand that works for beach, pool, and everyday errands, praised for durable rubber soles, easy-to-clean designs, and a wide range of colors and styles. Reviews also flag meaningful drawbacks: flat footbeds with little arch support, occasional strap chafing or blisters between toes, inconsistent longevity with some pairs breaking, and comfort limits for long walks.

  • These are my favorite flip flops. The sole feels dense enough while still absorbing impact. I absolutely love the ones with wider strap. They are sooooo comfortable and secure, but they are so hard to find. I’m wondering if they stopped making them. The thinner straps are good, but I’ve definitely unsnapped a few between the toes and they don’t stay on as well. I’ve had about 6 pair over the years and have had 2 break on me.

    Would love to have the thicker straps back and easier to find.

  • Comfiest flip-flops ever! I hate when regular flip-flops rub in between your toes and irritates them, Havaianas are perfect I actually can wear them all day long with no pain!

  • Best flip flops ever

    Feedback

    Comfy. Stylish. Long lasting

  • I grew up wearing Havaianas and I loved them. I remember my pair that I took to the Gold Coast when I was 10, they were dark pink with gold design. I loooved them so much. The only issue was I grew out of them and had to give them away!

  • A summer staple. These are my beach sandals. They're super easy to clean and comfortable once broken in.

  • Bought my first pair of Havaianas in 2014 and had to buy new ones this month only because I lost one of the old ones. Super sustainable. I also love that you can get them in fun colors and also that they are on the cheaper side. Might not be the best sandals for longer walks, but perfect for beach days!

  • I love havaianas, they last for a long time, you can create nice outfits with it, its great for summer

    I have many pairs of it and i would recommend you to do the same! I love the overall experience, i always have one in my bag in case the shoes i am wearing are unconfy.

  • Love them and all their colors.

    Feedback

    Love the colors and designs.

  • Very comfortable and lots of variety

  • I use Havaianas since I am a child and I just love it. I have used so many different colors and designs but I always keep the traditional black and white colors, perfect for nice weather, great to use for the beach or pool. I keep one as my inside shoes, this is very personal because I don’t like to walk inside my house with outside shoes but I don’t like to walk barefoot either. I run errands with a loose pants and a pair Havaianas.

    I love the products but one thing that I have to do to get exactly what I need is to choose asize a bit bigger than mine so I can feel more comfortable. Overall recommend 100%

  • Tried, true and well-loved footwear that goes everywhere with me. I keep a pair in my car and a pair in my suitcase in addition to the ones in my closet. I wear them on walks, running around the house and yard, at the beach, and have even, in a pinch, worn them on a hike (don't recommend that!). There's a reason they are sold everywhere by all types of people. I'm a fan, clearly.

  • It’s really comfortable and not cheap

    Maybe the look should be better

  • I have Havaianas by the front and back doors—they are my daily staple. I also have them in different colours to match various outfits. Living in Australia and 10 minutes from the beach, there is not a day that goes by that I don't wear flip-flops (thongs, jandals—depending on where you're from). They run true to size, are comfortable, easy to clean, don't stain, are easy to wear, unisex. I love that they don't give me blisters when they get wet at the beach like some other brands of flip-flops I've worn, and they are sturdy enough if someone accidentally stands on the back of them (annoyingly this happens) that they don't break. I've put mine through the washing machine when they have been covered in mud & sand after a thunderstorm at the beach, and they came out as good as new. They are really incredible value, and I'll be a lifetime purchaser.

  • This is an incredible Brazilian brand of high quality and adorable flip flops. I currently already own FOUR pairs and I am in love. I got my pairs from Brazil and I am so excited to see their brand in the US now!

  • I grew up wearing these at home every day because my family’s from Brazil. Everyone wears it there. We love the design and customization, and especially the cultural bridge to Brazil. But we realized over time that either the quality got worse or it was actually bad all along. They barely last a year now and always break at the part between the toes. We switched to Ipanema - wayyy softer and lasts longer.

    Stop using flimsy material and go back to the thick durable designs. The rubber doesn’t mold into the foot like Ipanema shoes. It’s just not a comfortable shoe anymore.
