Product Information
Full details
This guide is for women seeking comfortable and durable footwear for casual wear. The key benefit is the lightweight, water-resistant, and non-slip design perfect for various environments. A potential caveat is the sizing, as the BR/Supplier size should be considered equivalent to the EU size, regardless of what is displayed on the product sole. These Havaianas flip-flops feature a 100% PVC strap and logo, a rubber outsole, and a comfortable, durable, and lightweight sole.

FAQs
How do I ensure I order the correct size?
Havaianas uses BR/Supplier sizing which is equivalent to EU sizing. Refer to the product description's sizing notes and compare with your EU shoe size. For example, if you are a UK 8.5, you should look for the corresponding EU size listed.
Are these suitable for swimming?
While they are water-resistant and can be worn in wet environments like the beach or poolside, they are not designed as swim fins or for rigorous water sports. They are best suited for walking in and out of water.
What is the sole made of?
The outsole is composed of 98.5% rubber and 1.5% silkscreen.
Can I wear these for sports?
No, these flip-flops are designed for casual wear and comfort, not for athletic activities which require specialized footwear.
How should I clean my Havaianas?
Clean them gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse with clean water and allow them to air dry completely, away from direct sunlight or heat.
Are the straps adjustable?
No, the straps are made of 100% PVC and are not adjustable. They are designed to provide a secure fit when the correct size is chosen.
What does 'Fantasia' or 'Fantasia Gloss' refer to in other models?
These often refer to specific collections or finishes within the Havaianas range, such as different patterns, textures, or a glossy finish on the straps or sole.
Troubleshooting
Flip-flops feel too tight or too loose.
Consult the sizing guide provided in the product description. Remember that the BR/Supplier size is equivalent to the EU size. If still unsure, consider the width of your foot.
Material has become stiff.
This can happen with prolonged exposure to extreme heat or sunlight. Try softening them by soaking in cool water for a short period. Always air dry away from heat.
Slipping even with the non-slip sole.
Ensure the soles and the surface you are walking on are clean and free from debris, soap, or excessive water. The non-slip feature is most effective on typical surfaces.
