Wonderful summer shoe for comfort and "city" style, a little more covered-up and formal than a sandal. My chief need is that it fit snugly and comfortably over my very flat, bony, and narrow instep, which it did. No loose flopping.

The BEST sandal for traveI. Two years ago, I bought my first pair in Jerusalem when the sandals that I brought just did not offer enough support. These sandals carried my comfortably as I walked for miles on cobblestone streets for the remainder of my trip. As soon as I got home, I ordered another pair thru Zappos and wore them all spring, summer and fall. Last year, I ordered more of these sandals for a trip to northern Spain and Portugal. I just received my 3rd Zappos shipment in preparation for a trip to France.

These were my first pair of Naots. The fabric does stretch some with wear if you are worried about the sandals being too snug when you first get them. I'm not sure they would work with someone who has very narrow feet. My feet are average to slightly narrow. These sandals are very comfortable with moderate to above average arch support. (Mephisto has better arch support in my opinion). I've been able to wear these sandals all day shopping with no problems. They felt a little large but not enough to order a size up. Normally I wear a 6 or 6-1/2. I usually wear Mephisto, Born, Frye, and Dansko for my comfort shoes and boots. I have a lot of foot and back problems and I need footwear with firm arch support. The Naot sizes differ from my usual shoe brands, but as everyone knows Zappos is the best about returning for any reason. Of all the shoes, boots, purses, watches etc that I order thru Zappos, there is not another online business that provides the service you get with Zappos. Other businesses could all learn a huge lesson in customer service from Zappos. Everything always arrives in great condition within 1-2 days. I have no idea how Zappos manages to pull off this awesome feat.

These shoes feel so nice! I have size 9, nearly flat feet on the narrow side of medium. I was very pleased with how the stretch fabric snugged around my foot in such a comfortable way. I got these in a size 40 but my toes and my heels were at the very ends of the shoes so I sent them back and got size 41. Much more comfortable and looks better. Not my first pair of Naots. These shoes are well made and will last you. And thank you, Zappos, for your great service!

My first order with Zappos. The sales person was very helpful. I ordered in the evening and my shoes arrived at 11:00 the next morning. How did that happen? I had been looking for a shoe with this quality leather, and undainty style for everyday. My foot is narrow and they fit. I am experiencing a little rubbing on the edges of my foot, likely due to my flat feet. I have difficult feet to fit, so I'll put up with the rubbing until I get a callous or the leather gives a bit. All in all, I'm thrilled to have finally found a narrow, good looking sandal. No more running around shoe hunting again. Zappos have the best customer service I've ever experienced.
