The name Havaianas (pronounced ah-vai-YAH-nas) is Portuguese for Hawaiians. The secret behind the comfort and uniqueness of the flip flops is a 42-year old secret Brazilian rubber formula created exclusively by Designer Alpargatas, which makes the Havaianas flip flops so irresistibly soft, and comfortable. Designed, marketed and manufactured by São Paulo Alpargatas, since their launch, 2.2 billion pairs of Havaianas sandals have been produced and sold throughout the world. The Havaianas trend first started in Brazil, but quickly gained notice within the US. It all started with the flip flops taking center stage at fashion shows and being worn backstage by model Gisele Bundchen. Now the Havaianas flip flops are worn by anyone and are referred to as the “best rubber sandal in the world.” Havaianas flip flops are seen in the hottest fashion and sport magazines, on fashion runways at New York Fashion Week and even at red carpet events. |
