Havaianas are a surprisingly comfortable choice for the plus-size foot, but that's not all. These shoes--made from a special rubber unique to the brand--are offered in a number of stylish designs that please a multitude of tastes.
1. Flexible Sizing & Unisex Design
The best thing about Havaianas is the fact that if you go for a unisex style, you can pull the look off without fail and still wear a men's size shoe. Some of us do have larger or wider feet, and it's comforting to know that your sandals aren't giving away your secret.2. Color to Minimize and Flatter
Havaianas have regularly-updated designs that make me drool, and you can select the design that flatters your feet the best. If you have smaller feet, select a pair with a white or wildly-patterned design. If you want to complement that manicure, draw the eyes away from the footbed and towards those tootsie with a coordinating thong band.3. Supportive Footbeds
I used to hate wearing flip-flops because my ankles turn in slightly. Over time, my heel would "grind down" the bottom of the shoe until it actually wore out completely! The special rubber that composes a Havaianas sole means that you don't get that dreaded "dip" that gives away the age of your shoe. I've had mine for about six months, but they look brand-new and have stood up to daily use. For the record, I'm about 160-170 pounds, so that means they'll likely handle slightly more substantial pressure from plus wearers.4. Stay-on-Foot Designs
When you're sick of flip flops falling off your feet, there's another option I discovered with Havaianas: they have wrap-around foot designs which keep things anchored. The straps go between your toes and around your ankle, securing at the side.5. Community
It's not exactly a plus-size reason, but did you know that Havaianas gives back? They've done some amazing work through celebrity contributions and donations, and it feels good to buy shoes that help others.
