Havaianas Men's Top Flip Flop Sandal, Black, 8 M US

I have never had a simple, inexpensive, basic, rubber flip flop before, so I am walking in with no expectations. Though, I did do some research and from the reviews these seemed to be on the upper end of quality for this type of sandal. Surprising not the upper end of the price though...very reasonably priced.First time I put them on, I was not impressed. A little narrow for my foot. The straps are a little loose and fall very far forward on my foot (close to the line of the base of your toes, where they connect to your foot - there is a word for that...don't know what it is). Foot bed feels nice, dense, substantial, light, and very comfortable, and very grippy sole (impressed with that, have not had them wet yet, that is the big test). No arch support what so ever. I am dead on size 13, and there is not much room left fore and aft. I did have to figure out how to walk in these, they walk a little different than other sandals. Probably not particular to these, but to this type of sandal. And they are not what i would choose for a hike or long walk. They do make the 'flop' sound a little more when you walk. Mostly due to the strap falling so far forward on your foot, so the footbed is not supported/secured closer to your foot.Note: I work from home and it is summer, so I wear flip flops almost predominately. I usually wear Chacos, OluKai, Reef, Cobain, and Rafters (have 'opinions' about each). They are all more sport oriented type sandals (heavy, arch support).So, I said I will wear these around the house to get a good feel for them...then pass judgement. I got into my day, and then realized much later in the day when I took the dog and trash out that I had forgotten and still had these on....so I guess they are mine now! That was yesterday...I have not taken them off, and was pleased to put them back on this morning. Again, I have not gotten them wet and that is the big test where most of my others fail miserably. Foot slips on the footbed and sole slips on wet surface.Walking in with low expectations really helps, as well as I am excited to try something new/different. But, so far, these are doing great...for what they are.Well, that got long...sorry. So, long story short...I am very pleased with my purchase. Looking forward to the use that these will get. Looking at other Havaianas...yeah I don't know how to pronounce it either. No matter, they make great sandals.

The color is perfect. I own 2 havayanas but I'm getting this 3rd pair to have a back up. Many of these sandals break the piece between the toes too soon but my last two are long lasting! Notice how these are a more rugged style than some of the more delicate ones on the website. This is the good stuff. The straps are thick, the sandal/sole is thick. Get this type, they will last.

Great basic flip-flops. Foot fit true to size. Comfortable foot beds.

The black flip flops that I ordered are comfy, fit pretty well, are durable, & look good. But my only gripe is the strap which is pretty cheap. I may replace the strap with a different flip flop straps in the future.

Great flip-flop. Perfect size and very comfortable.

So frustrating. I love your shoes but all the five pairs and all that I try on in every store have lose and flimsy straps. The straps on all the Havaianas flip flops i have bought in the last four years are too flimsy and poorly manufactured. I thought these fat straps would work but they are too loose. Please go back to making the thicker and tighter straps so I can buy them again.

Good quality flip flops. Good buy for the money.

Great flop at a great price. It’s a great throw on and go. My only issue is that the toe area seems short.
