They have been a trend for several seasons, and it seems that 2026 could be no exception. We are talking about flip-flops, that fashionable footwear that slipped into street style some time ago and that this spring/summer also have a starring role in everyday looks.

And the best proof of this is that they have arrived in Zara’s new arrivals. Yes, the label led by Marta Ortega has teamed up with the quintessential flip-flop brand: Havaianas. And the result is a collection you won’t want to miss.

This new line that Zara has just launched consists of only six different models that lightly reinterpret the classic Havaianas design. Maintaining its lines and material, the brand brings this footwear closer to the fashion-minded audience who likes to play with the trends of the moment.

Once again, Zara has taken the traditional model and relaunched it in several colors. The result is flat sandals, with a normal sole thickness and several tones that pair perfectly with everything and, above all, that adapt wonderfully to outfits with jeans you wear at any time.

And indeed, last year the Spanish and Brazilian brands joined forces to complete Zara’s footwear collection with models that quickly became a hit. This year, they repeat the alliance with designs similar that won’t take long to sneak into the wishlist of the chicest girls.

But what makes them special compared to the rest of the models sold by Havaianas? The square toe. The sandals available in a flattering butter-yellow color, in a wearable dark red, and in basic black have that sophisticated finish.

If you prefer the more traditional rounded toe, opting for something more basic, Zara has another model that we like not only for its design but also for its color. Indeed, you can grab these sandals in an ideal strawberry red, but also in chocolate brown, a trending tone that is more wearable with your urban style.

But there’s more. For those who seek height, they have released a platform design. Who said flip-flops couldn’t elevate and help us look taller? Available only in black, it’s an ergonomic design with a textured sole and a rounded toe finish.

They cost 44.95 euros, unlike the 29.95 euros price of the basic model, and they are perfect for both your beach looks and something with jeans, a dress, or a skirt. The sizes run from 35 to 42 and they have been so popular that some models are already running out. Hurry, they’re flying off the shelves!
