The Brazilian beach footwear brand, Havaianas, has teamed up with Japanese label, mastermind WORLD, for a second time to create a bold and unique summer-ready footwear collection. The new Urban Slide features mastermind WORLD’s classic skull and crossbones emblem, sculpted onto the upper of the slide using a high-relief method. The lateral areas are adorned with both brand’s logos in white, adding contrast to the black and orange colorways.
Havaianas’ Global Marketing VP, Maria Fernanda Albuquerque, expressed excitement over the collaboration, stating, “This second drop combines comfort and style, and it is the first collaboration in which we feature the slide shape.” She also added, “Our first drop in 2020 was very special and we are certain that this one will be too, once again.”
This collaboration follows the debut partnership that saw the two brands release an understated take on the traditional Zori sandal. The Urban Slide pack is available online via Havaianas.ph for 4,299 Pesos.
