Baffin Driller...this is the real deal. When you work 12 hour shifts 7 days a week, in all types of weather the last thing you need is cold wet feet. I work on a drilling rig based out of Oklahoma, in mud and water many times above the knee, these Baffin boots were more than I expected for warmth and comfort. Thanks!

Works great on rigs - I'm a derrick man on a rig in West Texas. I originally ordered these boots for when I was working on the Western Slope in Colorado. They are great boots in either Colorado or Texas. Although, they can get a little warm in Texas...

Best boots for oil field - These boots fit like a glove and are very warm. I work derricks on a drilling and these are by far the best pair of boots I’ve used in cold weather!

Best boots I’ve had! I’ve seen several of the guys at work had bought these boots for the cold work ahead. I asked if they liked them. No one had even put them on yet. I’m not one to just go buy a boot not knowing if they are going to keep me warm or not, but my wife got them for me for Christmas. The first day back to work I tried them on and went deep into the gravel pit where I work and the snow was over my knees, it was minus 15 degrees F. and I loved them! They have a strong construction to ward off scratching and abrasion from rock, sand, and the like you will find in any gravel and sand quarry. They also repel all the oils and oil-like chemicals we have to use to maintain our conveyers. It was the best boot for the job! Thank you Baffin for the technology we need to keep our poor feet out of the cold weather!!!

Good for cold, bad for work - I work on a drilling rig in Utah. This winter I bought a pair of these boots in hopes that I would stay warm, and thankfully, I did. But after the first week I had found the down side to them. These boots have absolutely no traction on any surface other than traction grating. Working the floor was quite a challenge, trying to stay in one spot on the steel. Overall a good boot as long as you don't work on steel plates. The traction got even worse when they got wet. On the other hand, anyone who does a lot of walking during work will love this boot, the first time I put them on, they were a little tight, but even after the insulation stretched, it felt like walking on air, they are very comfortable, even though I was on my feet for 12 hours a day, seven days at a time!

These boots were suggested by some of the other rig hands who have used these on top of the mountains of CO in the middle of bad winter weather. I have been using mine for just over a week. They already are very comfortable with obvious warmth. They have been proven to be awesome with the weather, chemicals and abuse that occurs on a drilling rig in the CO winter. I strongly suggest these boots if you are out in really bad weather and need the industrial foot protection (steel shank and toe/ chemical resistant).

Love these shoes! I bought my pair just before we left for Italy. I was a little nervous about taking new shoes on a trip without breaking them in, but I was worried for nothing. The shoes were like old friends the minute I put them on. I walked in them for a month in Italy. Never wore any other shoes. They were great!

Karena perfection - I thought it would be a wonderful shoe and it is. I think generally Naot shoes run a little wide (which I need for my left foot) and I was not disappointed with this style.

Karena sandal is terrific! I love everything about these. They can be casual or dressy. They breathe unlike Teva, which make my feet hot. They are adjustable so my foot does not slosh around in them. The sole is non-slip and I like the little bit of heel. They arrived at my door the next day after ordering online.

An Awesom All-Round Summer Shoe - My Karennas arrived today, but as a long time Naot fan, I know that they will be just perfect. One thing you should know is that the leather is MUCH nicer than it looks onscreen, the color is a rich, reddish brown, almost oxblood, and it is really SOFT. I however, had to get them a size smaller than I usually order in Naot. I think it is because I have a rather thin foot (from top to bottom).

Wonderful! I agree with the other reviewers. These are great sandals. Very comfortable and like the fact I can adjust them, especially in hot humid weather. The footbed is more comfortable than most of my birkenstocks, and that's saying a lot since I rarely wore anything else until these came. Thanks Zappos.

Very pleased - Zappos is great; got the shoe to me in just a few days. I love the shoe, it looks great on. It rubs a little at the straps, but it is getting more comfortable every day. The straps make it so that you can really get a good fit. The removable orthotic is great, I was able to have it modified to be just like the orthotic I wear in my other shoes, so now I have a sandal I can wear (for the first time since I've needed an orthotic to be comfortable). Plus, the removable footbed is identical in all of the Naot sandals, so I can move the modified one to another shoe easily and not have to modify them all (expensive). I'm very happy with this solution and love the way the shoe looks!

A Real Problem Solver - Very comfortable, looks fine. This sandal would be a great choice if you have trouble finding the right width, since both straps are adjustable. Also great if you want to substitute an orthotic for the removable insole; that's what I intended but I ended up slipping a little padding under the existing sole and it provides great support as is. I'm definitely going to try another style of Naots (Sonia) for dressier occasions, now that I see how well these work. The edges of the straps are a bit rough--you might try filing them down a little. Thanks, Zappos, for letting me try out new styles with no charge and no hassle!

Perfect sandal - I have never found a more comfortable sandal. It envelopes my foot but doesn't bind. It also does not make my foot appear wide. It is easy to put on and adjust. I will buy more to have them available as these wear out.

Longtime Naot fan - As a frequent Israel tourist, I have long known of the delight of Naot sandals. Now that I'm older and have wide feet, I would be grateful if Naot would make sandals in widths too! I can guarantee an American market for them!
