In present day, these sandals are now available outside Brazil and are now a brand known throughout the world for their comfort, durability and style. Even Hollywood can be seen wearing Havaianas. Actress Sandra Bullock helped make the brand even more of a household name when she sported a pair of Havaianas with an evening gown.

This makes Havaianas one of the most comfortable shoes on the market today.
