Havaianas: The Brand's Journey
Laid-back Classic Style
Havaianas was created in 1962 by the Brazilian footwear company Alpargatas. The name “Havaianas” is derived from the Portuguese word for “Hawaiians,” indicating the laid-back and beach vibe lifestyle associated with the Hawaiian islands. Its sandals’ design was also inspired by traditional Japanese sandals called Zori, a pair of sandals made of fabric straps and rice straw soles.
