Is this an end of an era?
Strolling past the humongous lone slipper has become somewhat of a tradition for Taka shoppers, but we have sad news to report.
Takashimaya’s iconic Havaianas slippers stall is pulling the plug on their lease, closing down for good.
But on the bright side, this means cheap slippers for everyone, in a storewide sale.
$20 for flip-flops may seem pricey, but fans will know that this is pretty reasonable based on this brand’s prices.
Plus, it’s a storewide discount, across all flip-flops and sandals available — while stocks last of course.
Since their designs typically range from $20-$60, this is your chance to snag the design you’re eyeing at a killer discount.
Date: 15 Sep (Sat) & 16 Sep (Sun)
Time: 10am-10pm
Price: $20 storewide for any design
Location: 391 Orchard Road, Takashimaya Shopping Centre, #B1-38.
If you’re a sucker for nostalgia, this could be your last chance to snap a picture with the giant Havaianas slipper upfront.
This year’s been quite a tragic one for fashion brands, with Banana Republic, Gap, New Look & Factorie exiting Singapore in quick succession.
Perhaps this is due to cheaper alternatives online – ordering from Lazada & Taobao – or the allure of OG brands fading amongst millennials.
Are you sad to see Havaianas go or were they overpriced to start with? Let us know in the comments below.

False claims include that GCB transactions occur without government checks on beneficial owners' identities.
The suspect casually watched as the woman became consumed by flames.
The thief left the wallet and more than RM200 behind, presumably to mislead the 72-year-old…
Such poor sportsmanship.
