The soles are fairly heavy and the strap is very soft and flexible and while the sole itself was the right size, the strap was way tool loose for me for me, which is a bad combination. The were tied together so I couldn't attempt walking, but I'd imagine they'd fly off my feet if I'd tried. If your feet are "fat" these might work, or maybe the design wasn't scaled up correctly and the smaller sizes fit better but I'll be looking for something with a tighter fit and lighter/more flexible sole.

Plastic straps tend to get reversed and very uncomfortable. Attachment plugs stick out of bottom. Heavier than expected. A bit slippery in the gym shower. I bought these as gym/pool flip-flops and was quite disappointed. I actually wish I had tossed them and bought a cheapo pair at the drugstore. They look okay but they are highly impractical and if the straps get twisted, which is their natural state, then they're even a little painful, you have to remember to adjust the straps after you put them on. Not recommended at all. I have a pair of O'Neills that cost a little more and totally rock. And I have a pair of Olukai that are super great but cost a lot more. If you're interested in this kind of flip-flop, I recommend getting something cheaper and lighter either here or at the drugstore, because these are not nearly as good as they look.
I'd also recommend:
O'Neill, Olukai

I have worn Havaianas for years and they are THE BEST flops out there. Despite being very simple with not much going on in a flop design in terms of components, what is done they do very well with great quality materials and they last for years. My last white pair had a strap break because I wore them A LOT and sometimes in situations where i shouldn't and stressed them often. Still, they were champs that lasted me over 3 years but was finally time for a new pair since I broke them. I got the exact same size & color, men's 9/10 in white, as before that were originally purchased from Zappos as well.
Unfortunately, I got a bad pair that was not made properly. At first glance when taking them out of the packaging, the straps appeared to be longer than they normally should be but I was not sure if it was just my perception until I tried them on. The immediate issue when trying them on was that my toes were slightly hanging over the front edge somewhat and the sides of my foot would slightly hang over the sides of the soles ...that's definitely not right. At first I thought and what it looked like was that the hole of the between-the-toes thong portion was punched too close to the front of the flop sole. But taking everything into consideration, it appears that the sole that was cut for men's 9/10 was not cut right to size(slightly off and smaller) as well as the thong straps are definitely longer than normal. You can even tell looking at the Zappos product image that these thong straps are not the right length(including going to the Havaianas website as well). I purchased another pair thinking I just got the one irregular bad pair but the second pair is the same set of issues.
So what appears to have happened is that Zappos got a bad run of flops from Havaianas from last year's manufacturing stock. Both pairs had a manufacturing date of 08/2020 on them. I would say that these should fall under "irregular" because the issues are noticeable when worn but the issues are not immediately apparent visually(other than the straps appearing longer than normal) and somehow were passed by QA. I am of course sending them back for a refund and I am purchasing them directly from the Havaianas website with hopes for a couple pairs that are properly made. Still, it's a quality brand of flops and other footwear but they have to be more diligent on catching a bad run of flops.

My old Havanas were much better. Moe comfortable. They've gone downhill in the past 10 years.

The Men's Havaianas Top Flip Flops I received were not the size I ordered. I ordered size 13 and received 11/12. They're too small for my boyfriend.

These broke so quickly, I am surprised that Zappos has not discontinued this product due to lack of quality. Save yourself some trouble and money and pick up some Old Navy flip-flops instead!

The pair I ordered are gigantic. It was a Christmas gift. It is real hard to pick womans size when all you show is mens sizes. Am disappointed.
