Havaianas store.com - Visit the Havaianas® official online shop. Flip flops, sandals, espadrilles, sunglasses & accessories. Havaianas were created in Brazil in 1962 through inspiration from the Zori sandal; a traditional Japanese sandal with cloth straps and woven rice straw soles. Havaianas replaced the straw with rubber, updated the design to look modern, and the rest is history! This is why Havaianas' soles feature a rice grain pattern; one of the many design elements that make Havaianas so unique.
