Very Comfortable - These are my first Naot shoes and I am not disappointed. I stand at work between 8 and 14 hours a day and these shoes are very comfortable. They almost feel like slippers, and you can wear them all day right away. I would recommend these. I am new to Zappos, and am very pleased with their service and promptness!

Foot spa - I am recovering from foot surgery and this shoe felt wonderful as soon as I stepped into it. Excellent arch support, cushioning and has some pizzazz.

Love the shoe, love Zappos - I am very happy about my purchase. The shoe is SO comfortable from the moment you put it on. I wear a size 9 US and ordered a size 8 and it fits.

Excellent post knee-rehab recovery shoes - These shoes are top notch for aligning my lower legs and getting my balance proper. Instead of spending several hundred on custom orthotics, I got these, and these work for preventative care for the knees as well. I have Dansko’s, Ecco’s, Birkies, and Keen, but these are the best. The arch support and comfort of the sole is perfect for my medium-arched feet. Super cute style, too. These are the only Naot’s I’ve tried so far, but I plan on buying several more styles and colors. Oh yes, I’m always a size 9.5 but a 40 fits me perfectly with thin socks. I also have somewhat wide feet (they are a 'full b' or a 'small c' depending on manufacturer.) and these were a perfect width, no toe pinching.
Brands I'd also recommend: Dansko, Keen, more Naots

Very comfortable right out of the box and I have multiple foot problems. Working on my feet on a hard surface all day requires well-constructed shoes and these are! I bought the orange and thought I might look like Bozo because my feet are size 9 but everyone said how cute they looked. So i highly recommend the Matai.

Crazy Awesome Shoes! The Shoes are the best ever!! When I put these on my feet I feel like I can do anything from running a marathon to climbing a mountain. I wore them out at night and I swear they were guy magnets. Their funky fresh look is a big hit for Naot and was also the biggest hit at the party I was at. YEA! That’s what’s up!!!!

Matai - I was looking for a shoe I could wear with both jeans and a skirt. I was also looking for a shoe that is comfortable for up to 8 hours of walking daily. We have not left for the sightseeing yet but I have been wearing it in preparation. I have needed a few initial band aids on the heels. Other than that I often forget I have the shoe on. It is a beautiful shoe!

So Cute! I purchased the terra cotta. They are really pretty and everybody asks about them. They are super soft, comfortable and reasonably roomy in the toe box for those of us with mild bunions. They seem about one size larger than marked. At first I thought that was part of the design to accommodate the slightly pointed toe. Now that I've been wearing them for a few weeks...I wish I had ordered one size smaller. Other than that, I love everything about them and I'm ordering more NAOTs right now!

Happy Feet!! Zappos does it again! I ordered these shoes Saturday and they were waiting for me Monday night when I got home, and I live on the west coast. Practically instant manifestation. These shoes rock and are the most comfortable I've worn in many years. I read other reviews and got a size smaller and they fit perfectly. Will definitely be getting more Naots. Good advice - thanks to all!!

Can't Stop Wearing Them - These shoes go everywhere, do everything, and look great! I bought them because of the angled strap--I had reconstructive ankle surgery last year and one ankle sometimes swells--these straps accommodate that perfectly. But more important these shoes are comfortable and CUTE, CUTE, CUTE. I've worn them with skirts and pants; to meetings, shopping, and walking the dog. They are comfortable with or without socks. My only concern is wear along the suede edging in the front. I'd buy these shoes again (and again) and wish they came in more colors.

The Shape of a Foot - What you cannot clearly see in the pictures is that this shoe is shaped like a foot. The point of the toe is not at the center, but toward the inside, just in place for the big toe. The curve of the shoe follows the natural curve of my toes, making for an elegant shape and no deformed toes. These are elegantly made. I wear a wide 9.5 and following the reviews, bought a 40 (9). They fit perfectly.

Great comfort in a great looking shoe - These shoes are unbelievable. So comfortable, so much support and so great looking. They are dressier than an athletic shoe, but every bit as comfortable. Excellent quality both in design and construction.

Cute and comfortable - Initially felt tight and the inner sole was a little uncomfortable but with wear, it became very comfortable. Walked in Italian hill towns for a week and forgot they were on my feet.

These shoes are a dream - Took these shoes to D.C. for spring break and walked for 4 days in them. They felt fantastic immediately, even in cold & wet conditions! Cute styling, fancier than other mary jane styles. I wear a 9 US and got the 39 and they were perfect, even with a light sock.

Definitely worth the money... This is my second pair of Naot shoes. They are truly the most comfortable pairs of shoes that I own. There is no need to break them in; they are comfortable from day one. I also love the style of this particular pair. I ordered the green pair and received several compliments the first day I wore them out.

Cute and comfy - Found this shoe after four tries and ordered a half size smaller than I usually wear. It was like putting on a slipper and I wore it all day with no problem. My only complaint would be the arch hitting the bottom of my foot feels a little high, but I would order other colors.

Heaven! I was in heaven the minute I put this shoe on. I knew right away that I had invested in a quality product. I wore it all day without a thought. I got 4 pairs of shoes from Zappos and this was the only one I kept. I plan to take these shoes on a trip to Peru as a dressier alternative to my hikers. They are pretty cute too. Even in a size 11!

So CUTE! I love this shoe - very soft, yet sturdy, stylish, low profile. Cute with capris pants, skirts, anything! My only problem is I have a high arch, with a bone spur on the top of one foot, so the strap hits just in the wrong place for that one foot. Sadly, I will have to return them. Zappos has superb customer service and has been so patient as I find the right shoe for my Italy trip.
