FAQs
Are these flip-flops waterproof?
Yes, they are made from signature rubber construction that is fully water-resistant and suitable for beach or poolside use.
Can I wear these for long walks?
They are designed for daily activity and offer more stability than standard flip-flops, though they are not intended as replacements for athletic walking shoes.
Do the straps break easily?
Havaianas are known for their durable construction, though avoiding excessive pulling or snagging on sharp objects will prolong their lifespan.
Are these true to size?
They generally follow standard UK sizing, but we recommend consulting the size guide to match your specific foot length for the best fit.
How do I remove salt stains?
Rinse thoroughly with fresh water and mild soap. If stains persist, use a damp cloth to wipe the affected areas gently.
Is the outsole slip-resistant?
Yes, the sturdy lug outsole is specifically engineered to provide extra grip on slippery or uneven surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Straps feeling too tight
Gently stretch the straps by hand to loosen the fit, or wear them for short periods to allow the material to naturally conform to your foot.
Accumulated dirt in the textured footbed
Use a soft-bristled brush or an old toothbrush with soapy water to scrub the channels between the wave patterns.
Slippage on the footbed when wet
Ensure the footbed is wiped dry after heavy water exposure; the textured design is intended to provide grip but works best when debris is cleared.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These flip-flops require no formal setup; they are ready for use immediately out of the box. Compatibility relies on selecting your correct UK adult size. To ensure your Havaianas last for several seasons, follow these care steps:
- Cleaning: Hand wash with mild soap and warm water using a soft brush or cloth to remove salt, sand, or debris.
- Drying: Air dry in a shaded area. Avoid direct sunlight or high-heat sources like radiators, which can warp the rubber over time.
- Storage: Store flat in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving them in a hot car, as extreme temperatures may affect the material density.
- Rotation: If worn daily, rotate with another pair to allow the rubber structure to recover its natural shape.
