Hey guys, does anyone know where I can get cheap slim havaianas in Melbourne? Or any online shops? citybeach.com.au has them for $29.99. Thanks! My sisters back in Singapore are complaining they are expensive in Singapore and want me to find cheaper ones here.

they seem to last alot longer, have a nicer feel, and they look good with my hipster jeans (jk).
They are simply just better quality…and i think its made in brazil? not china
To me, a $5 pair of thongs will do. But my sisters and their friends insist on wearing only havaianas!
I can tell you that they are also expensive in Brazil, where they are made, so I would regard this as a victory of marketing, persuading consumers that they are worth that much.
The only reason I ask is because my wife bought some, from Harbour town in QLD on special for $20 or something like that.
And when I asked why they were so go, I was told cause they are Havaianas!
After having them for a few months, she then admitted that the $5 pair from target were actually more comfortable. Funny!
My local surf shop recently had 50% off everything so picked up quite a few pairs then, but generally discounted Havaianas are pretty hard to find in stores. You can try eBay but the sometimes the sizing can get confusing considering each pair of Havs lists 3 sizes. Sometimes the surf shops in DFO's have them slightly cheaper but ugly colours or huge or tiny sizes.
I looked at the title & thought you were after some Cuban cigars or something! :o
Just be careful they don't try to sell you Dominican thongs instead! ;)
Catchoftheday have some today (20/10/10)
Just checked it out.. My sisters don't like those ones. They want the slim kind. PICKY PICKY PICKY!
Just be a caring brother, buy them full price and tell her that they are an early christmas present.
What's the go with Havaianas?, why are they so good compared to normal thongs?
