Walk as one with the 2011 Havaianas Filipinas collection
MANILA, Philippines - It’s not too late to show off your Pinoy pride.
Since 2006, Havaianas has honored the Philippines’ rich and colorful culture with designs that embody the spirit of Filipino pride. This June, Havaianas joins the country as it celebrates its 113th year of independence with the release of this year’s limited-edition Havaianas Filipinas collection.“This year’s limited-edition Havaianas Filipinas collection hopes to reflect happiness, carefree fashion, and good memories with the playful use of color and inventive patterns. These attitudes truly match the Filipino culture and even the brand’s cheery personality,” says Anne Gonzalez, managing director of Havaianas Philippines.
The limited-edition 2011 Havaianas Filipinas collection chose to play with the colors of the national flag. With the dazzling shades of blue, red, yellow, and white, fused with contemporary, street-graffiti prints, the result is a modern yet decidedly nationalistic fashion statement, letting all fashionable Havaianaticos walk as one.Filipinos from Luzon can literally wear their heritage at their feet with Havaianas Filipinas yellow, with the name “Luz” imprinted on its soles amid artistic splashes of red and blue. Meanwhile, Visayans can flaunt their nationalism loud and proud with Havaianas Filipinas red. With intense red straps adorned with the same engraved flag and Havaianas logo, the name “Vis” is printed across its red soles, complemented by vibrant shades of blue and yellow. Those hailing from Mindanao can walk patriotically in Havaianas Filipinas blue, with lively cobalt soles that feature the name “Min” accented with bright colors of red and yellow.Each pair’s well-crafted strap carries a unique rendition of the Philippine flag engraved with “Pinas” next to the distinctive Havaianas logo.Get your hands on all three designs of the limited edition 2011 Havaianas Filipinas Collection, available in All Flip-Flops, Celio, Complex, Duty Free Philippines Fiesta Mall, Gas, KidSports, Manila Polo Club, Moana, ROX, Rustan’s, Stoked, Tick Tock Flip Flop NAIA Terminal 3, and Urban Athletics.
