FAQs
How do I determine the correct size?
Havaianas use Brazilian (BR) sizing, which is equivalent to European (EU) sizing. Always try them on if possible, or consult a size chart that specifies BR/EU conversions. The product notes suggest considering the BR size as the best fit, equal to the EU size.
Are these suitable for swimming?
Yes, they are water-resistant and dry quickly, making them ideal for use around pools or at the beach. The non-slip sole also provides added safety.
How do I clean my Havaianas?
Clean them with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Rinse with fresh water and allow them to air dry away from direct sunlight.
Can these be worn for long walks?
While comfortable for casual wear, they offer minimal arch support. They are best suited for shorter distances or casual outings rather than extended hiking or walking.
What does the 'Greek key' pattern refer to?
The Greek key pattern is a decorative design found on the straps of these flip-flops, inspired by ancient Greek art.
Are these flip-flops unisex?
Yes, this model is designed for unisex adult wear.
What is the material of the sole?
The sole is made of durable, heat-resistant, and non-slip rubber.
Troubleshooting
Flip-flops feel too tight or loose
Check the BR sizing against a conversion chart. Brazilian sizes often align with EU sizes. Try on to confirm the best fit, as recommended in the product description.
Slight odor from rubber material
This is normal for new rubber products. Air them out in a well-ventilated area for a day or two. A light rinse with water and soap can also help.
Strap feels stiff
Wear them for a short period; the rubber will soften and conform to your foot with body heat and movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These flip-flops require no setup; they are ready to wear straight out of the packaging.
Compatibility: Designed for unisex adult use. The primary consideration is sizing. Havaianas uses Brazilian (BR) sizing, which often corresponds directly to European (EU) sizes. It is recommended to consult a size chart or try them on to ensure the best fit, as the BR size equals the EU size regardless of what might be printed on the sole.
Care: To maintain your Havaianas:
- Rinse with clean water after use, especially after exposure to salt water or chlorine.
- Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the straps and sole if needed.
- Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not in use, as this can degrade the rubber over time.
- Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Air dry away from direct heat.
