Trinidad Keens are my favorites lately. They look quite strange but are very comfy and I can walk miles and miles in them and they still feel so good!

i just bought earth vegan in black and it is the most comfy flip flop. i have havianas, born, skechers and birkenstock and i like them all. i am going to buy the earth tranquil this coming week. i am really impressed with the comfort and support.

Rainbow only lasted me 6-7 months before they had holes in the soles!

I have found that Reef are great for the price and comfortable too.

hm... I''m a fan of reefs. some of my friends swear by rainbow but I don''t like the tan colors and I can''t find any others??

but speaking of flip flops, I saw some really cute ones with silk/fabric straps... but I can''t remember where or what brand or anything... anyone else seen any like that? they were super comfy too! dang I shoulda bought them when I saw them...

They have some darker brown colors and I have seen pink ones too! When I had them, I had the thin strap dark brown ones ordered for me because no one carried them.

The pink rainbows are sort of a salmon shade, and there is also a pale green shade as well.

The ones w/ the silk/fabric straps could be Eliza B''s- cute- but fair warning they run about a size small!

(Pink-faced) country mouse checking in... um, how is "Havaianas" pronounced???!!

 

[Mara]

i got those scarf steve madden ones a few weeks ago but in a diff pattern, the brown, green, tan, paisley ones, love them!! they are so versatile and comfy!

i also got a few pairs from the saks 5th outlet, they were like $12 and they are knotted leather ones, super basic, i got them in black and brown. i think i have like 20 pairs of flip flops!

eta i just saw i posted like the same thing 2 weeks ago on page one...doh. i'm losing it!

 

[MichelleCarmen]

I love Havaianas, too, and actually found out about them a few years back while reading on pricescope!

The first pair I purchased were black ones and they''ve held up for two years now and I still wear them a few times a week. They''re the only style of cheaper flip flops that don''t hurt the spaces between my toes, so I find myself doing all kinds of activities from yard work to errand running in them w/out any hesitation.

Just bumping this up... I was totally serious about wanting to know how to pronounce "Havaianas"!!!! I gotta know what to ask for, right?!!

Thanks!
Lynn

 

[Love in Bloom]

I was wondering the same thing LynnB!

Here is my shot at it: Have-aye-yah-nas or Have-aye-yee-nas

Sounds a bit like spanish to me...maybe pronunciation also depends on what part of the country you hail from??

 

[nsaids_nurse420]

my favorite are teva with teradakdyl soles, crocs, airwalks. i have had the tevas since i was a junior in high school. i''m 30 now and they are still in good shape.

 

[Mara]

LIB i think your first pass at it is right.

i buy all my havaianas online so i never have to pronounce it, i just point and click.

 

[FireGoddess]

Do they make havaianas with a wedged heel?

 

[crown1]

yes to the wedge heel. volitale idol ( i think)?

[crown1]

sorry, wrong name. after looking at marvel''s link i see i had wrong name. but they do have the wedges.

 

[Skippy123]

Those Steve Madden's are so cute!!! I love them; I should run to Dillard's and check them out!

I love Tevas too!

Hi, a friend of mine in FL told me about Lady Lanells...anyone heard of them? They''re flip flops decorated with swarovski crystals. She swears by them and claims they are super comfy. I can''t find anyplace in Houston that carries them, so I haven''t been able to check them out in person, but they have a website: http://www.ladylanells.com/index.asp

If you look at the "High Night Collection," don''t they look like they''re made from the High Look (wedge) Havaianas?

Anyway, if anyone can comment on these, I would love to know more about them. I especially thought this pair was cute: http://www.ladylanells.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=51

Love those Nan! I am going to have to track down a pair.

 

[Diamond*Dana]

Love my Sketchers, and a comfy pair of Nike.

 

[Libster]

I''m a die hard Havaianas fan. They are soooo simple and soooo comfy. I did just receive these JCrew wedges as a gift and am really enjoying them, too!

 

[sevens one]

I just got these jcrew flip flops and love em

Just wanted to mention that the Steve Madden scarf flip flops pictured above are on clearance on the Steve Madden website... at $29.99 -- I just snagged two different pairs. I love them, I tried them on weeks ago but wasn''t about to shell out $54.

 

[CrookedRock]

Wow! I can''t believe I just saw this thread! I''m a FLORIDA GIRL! All I wear is flip-flops!

I too love my Havianas, but after a whole day in a mall my feet are tired!
I love the JCrew Flips, I have the high ones and the loves ones. They are so cute! And if you have an outlet near you, you can find them on sale for $9.99
I also love my Rainbows!
But for something a little classier I love, love, love my Jack Rogers!
And for something really unique (a little pricey) I get a million compliments a day on my Mystique sandals....
