I love these flip flops and having a difficult time finding the size I normally wear 4/5. I ordered 5/6 (based on suggestions on Zappos) but my actual shoe size is 5. The size on shoes are 6W and they are very big.

I have been buying the slim Havianas for years and have always been pleased with the quality of these flip flops. They are thick, comfortable and long lasting. I recently ordered a black pair to add to my collection and was so disappointed when I received them in the mail. I'm not sure if I just got a bad pair or if Havianas has decided to cheapen their product. This particular pair was so much thinner than all my other pairs. They felt cheap like the $5 ones you can get at Target. I'm not returning them because it's just a pair of flip flops and I only wear them around the house , to the pool and at the beach. If the next pair I order are this thin, I will not be buying them ever again. Please, Havianas, do not lessen the quality of my favorite flips!

I love Havaianas slims & own more than a dozen pairs. Sometimes I've had to give them a little filing in the area underneath where the toe post and rubber (V) straps meet. Lately I've noticed some ragged finishes like rubber nubs and strange outcroppings that need clipping. While inspecting the underside of the last two pairs that I bought from Zappos, I found at those round stopper things a thick, milky grease-like substance that looked like congealed bacon fat. Gobs of it that managed to sufficiently gross me out. I imagine the manufacturing process must involve a lubricant to get those rubber stoppers through the little holes. I've decided I now have enough Havaianas.

These are my go-to flips for casual wear and I ordered my usual size. The cut of the sole is bigger than my previous and other pairs, and anyone who buys these on a regular basis knows that quality control on them is kind of shabby. Different colors in the exact same style and size can be different, even the same color can be different from pair to pair. I think you get what you get and shouldn't expect exact matches from this brand, but they still look good and are fine for everyday wear.

These are nice looking shoes but not nearly as comfortable as Reef flip flops. They are hard plastic so you definitely feel them on your feet after a few hours of wear. Reefs are like pillows, and you forget they are on most of the time.

They are well constructed, and for a flip flop - they're probably better than the drugstore variety - but they are a very pricey flip flop.

Bought these to wear at the beach/pool. They are SUPER slippery when went. I think they are cute, but I would definitely advise against wearing them anywhere near water.

More than once these flip-flops have inconsistent sizing; this requires a return and re-purchase which I have not gotten around to doing yet. It is such a hassle.

The sandals seem to fit when you try them on, only my toes hung out when I walked. Very annoying.

So disappointed when I received these shoes. I loved the color and they were a size too small. I ordered my usual size, but were too small. I order 3 pairs for my girls, all youth sizes. That was disappointing as well. Too small! Order a size up than you usually wear. Really cute and looking forward to receiving my new order!

Wanted to try Havaianas because I read about them in fashion magazines. Did not dislike at all, but Old Navy flip flops are just as good and less expensive.

I have many of Havaianas flip flops and always wear a 37/38 but when I ordered this pair they were too small and had to return them. I even measured them up against the many havaianas that I have at home at they are about a 1/2 inch smaller which makes a big difference in they way they look and feel.

Pretty basic flip flop for what seems to be a fairly high cost. Not really sure what the fuss is all about but I like the color and the fit.

These flip-flops looks really nice and I ended up keeping them. I have owned the slim fit before and was really pleased, but these seem to be more "floppy" (the material is less stiff so they feel like they're on the verge of snapping apart a lot). Very strange. Since I'm not using them for long walks, it's ok.

I ought to have read the reviews before selecting a size. I ordered what is my normal shoe size 9-10 (39-40, although I know myself to be a 40 in European size), and once the flip-flops arrived they were too small. Upon ordering the next size up (the gargantuan 41-42, dubbed women's size 11-12), I found these to be far better in width and fit, although a touch too long. In the Havaianas world, the perfect size for me would be 40-41. Too bad they do not make this size for those of us in-betweeners. At this price, I cannot hold it against them. However, for those women with size 11 feet, I am sure the size 41-42 will only just fit, as in toes and heels will be right up against the edges. Definitely do not think a size 12 foot is going to be happy in these. These flip-flops will best suit those with normal to slightly wide feet. Havaianas are cut well so as not to bind the feet. I picked the sand grey/light golden color combination, which is subtle and pretty and neutral. The flip-flops are cushy and spongy. There is no traction on the soles. The slim style is nice for those of us who want more feminine-looking flip-flops.

Smaller than expected. Love Havaianas always, but these somehow seemed 1/4 smaller than previous sizes. Does not sound like much, but made a huge difference.

The sizes are listed incorrectly. I ordered a size "37/38" which Zappos indicates is a "US Women's 7/8." However, the box says "EUR 37/38" and "USA 4/5." This is greater than a full size different! Very disappointing.

I have large wide feet with a high arch. Have been buying basic Havaianas for years and they always fit well. A couple of years ago I decided to splurge on fancier Havaianas. They had very long straps to a point that my feet were sliding out with every step. I had to return. This time around, basic Havaianas and guess what - the straps are too long! Will be returning and looking for a different flip flop brand.

The listed price for the pair I purchased was $30, however, the pair I received had a tag that said the item price was $26 and the flip flips had stickers on the bottom saying they were from 2022. The size I selected during purchase was based on current flip flips, not a make from 2 years ago, so they did not fit.

I buy these on a regular basis and know my size and my heel was falling off the back of these. They are mis-sized
