Hawaiianas sandals and usual clothes.May

Havaianas" is a lifestyle brand from Brazil that has become increasingly common here in Japan. Inspired by Japanese zori sandals, the brand's classic flip-flops are now loved around the world and recognized as a world standard item. Perhaps the secret lies in their designs that suit everyone and the wide variety of styles available. For this issue, we have asked 30 fashion-conscious men and women of different generations and styles to try on a pair of flip-flops over a period of three months. In May, the first installment, we present styling by 10 fresh, spring-like men and women.

How did you feel when you tried on the "Hawaiianas" sandals?

Despite the thick sole, they were lightweight, comfortable, and pleasant to wear. The design is also simple, so they will be useful for any outfit you choose to wear them with!

What are the key points of coordination?

The key point is the inclusion of arm warmers, which I have been in the mood for recently. The combination of a vest and slim pants is my usual style, and I was conscious of coordinating with sandals that fit in well.

What are some of the challenges you would like to take on this summer?

This is the year I wanted to try surfing someday!

How did you feel when you tried on the "Hawaiianas" sandals?

I was worried that the sole might be too thin, but it has just the right amount of cushioning to make it easy to walk in. And the summery coloring will lift my spirits, and I am looking forward to the coming season!

What are the key points of coordination?

We were conscious of wearing a spring-like blue checked shirt with a bright pink color.

What are you into these days?

I am passionate about running and camping, and recently I have been into "vélamping," which is a camping experience on a balcony. My fashion style is also becoming more outdoorsy!
