A couple of years ago (in one of my Havainas-crazed days), I bought my son, who was still learning to walk then, a pair of the Baby Estampas by Havaianas. It’s actually our Christmas present to him. But that was ages ago.

He has worn it few times but that was it. And since then, I never saw a reason to buy another pair for him.

Now ain’t I glad because just recently, news broke about Havaianas being recalled due to high lead content found in their decorative paints.

Among the recalled models were Baby Estampas, Baby Pets, Kids Apple, Kids Fairy, Kids Flores, Kids Lighthouse, Kids Monsters, Kids Surf, Baby Letrinhas, Kids Sports, Kids Candies, Kids Fun, Kids Love, Kids Sereias, Kids Speed, Kids Lucky Bug, Kids Pets, Kids Rock, Kids Slim, Kids Wonder Woman, Kids Small Flowers and Kids Tropical w/Kit.

Haay, one really has to be careful with the products (food, clothing, footwear, medicine, diet product, etc…etc..) we buy these days.
