Customer Reviews Naot Kayla

Great comfort but Rumba color is not as red as shown. Almost identical to Red Chili Pepper from last year.

After having foot surgery in November 2011 - to correct on one of my flat feet - I need new sandals with good support. I really enjoyed wearing these comfortable sandals last summer. I've ordered them again this year in a different color. The footbed is very sturdy & comfortable.

In the USVI, we live in sandals, but we have no good shoe stores except for flip-flops. So I was thrilled when a friend told me about Naot Sandals from Zappos. As soon as I got them, I put them on and I haven't been barefoot since (which is really saying something). I have high arches and tendonitis and all kinds of things wrong with my feet, and these sandals are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn that weren't custom made! The foot box gives support where it's needed and lovely goosh elsewhere. The rubber soles grip well even on salty wet decks when sailing. The straps are secure and adjustable so I don't feel like I'm going to step out of my shoes. The gold tone is muted and lovely and not at all as gaudy as my husband worried it would be. I just adore them and never want to take them off. As a person who lives life barefoot, that really is saying something! Plus, Zappos didn't give me a hard time when I told them I was from the USVI. A lot of companies won't ship here because we're "not the US" (although we are). Zappos not only ships here but they gave me free shipping through USPS Priority Mail. I WILL be ordering more Naots from Zappos!

I've owned 2 pairs of Naot Kaylas and could not be happier with them. My feet tend to swell and the velcro adjustment allows me to adjust as needed through the day. They are great on our boat, too, since they are non-marking and they dry quickly if they happen to get wet. Between the black embossed patent and the clay color (goes with everything from gray to tan), they are my summer shoe wardrobe. :)

Very cute, comfortable sandals. The black patent is beautiful. Well made, the leather is nice, and they have excellent arch support. I can wear them all day and my feet feel fine. Might run slightly narrow...

This is the second pair of these sandals that I have purchased, and I love them. Having plantar fasciitis, it used to be almost impossible for me to wear sandals for any length of time. But these sandals are GREAT and wonderful arch support, comfortable, and great looking too. For the first time in years, I have been able to wear Naot's Kayla sandals all day long in comfort. Please note; NOT ALL NAOT SANDALS ARE DESIGNED THIS WAY. I purchased a different pair of Naot sandals expecting a similar support, and was disappointed to discover they were like all other sandals. KAYLA is the name you want for the support!

I bought 2 pairs a half size larger than I would normally wear after trying a 37 I bought a 38 in Matte black and dressy black patent. The patent leather is a thinner "leather" so it feels looser than a true leather. It is a very small difference and I kept both.

These are cute and amazingly comfortable. I have several Naot sandals and these are the most comfortable...what surprised me the most was the excellent arch support.

I love this sandal. I have had four pairs and am about to buy another. I wear them for walking in the warm weather and they are more comfortable than my walking shoes (also Naots). I have a hard time finding shoes that fit properly and have a good arch but these are perfect.

These are great shoes. They are very comfortable -- no pressure points. I can walk all day in them without experiencing any discomfort or tired feet. This is my second pair of Naots. I really like them a lot.

These sandals were really cute and seemed like they would be comfortable if they weren't too wide for me. Lots of the reviews said they were narrow. If you truly have a narrow foot (AA), don't bother. My foot didn't even touch the straps or the sides.

I love this shoe. I have a hard time finding sandals because I wear an orthotic for plantar fasciitis. It has great arch support and a soft cushioned foot bed...no need for orthotic. This was not my first pick as far as style but they are cute enough to wear with shorts and capris. This was my first Naot shoe and I was not disappointed. They totally fulfilled my expectations of long wearing comfort.

I have these sandals in five colors and wear them all summer with pants, shorts and skirts. I save the patent and lizzard for dresses, and the others for casual wear. They are so comfortable I hate when fall comes and I have to go back to shoes (Naot also!). Love them.

I love the Kayla style. I own three different colors in them and love them all! My foot is a size 4 so the velcro straps really help the shoe fit well. Great arch support. Nice looking.

I got lucky earlier this year and scored a pair of size 44 Kate and Kayla sandals at an outlet for $30 each (yes, really - brand new!!). I figured that even though they were a little big (I'm a size 11, and run true to size in most brands) I'd give them a try for that price, and have pretty much LIVED in them all summer. I decided to buy a second pair of Kayla at full price since I liked them so much; I ordered them in a 43, figuring that would be just about right since the 44 is big. WRONG! The 43 is MUCH MUCH MUCH smaller and, in fact, too small - my toes hang off the front edge and the arch digs into my foot. The 44 is still big for me, but much better than the 43, so that's the one I have kept, although somewhat disappointed that I still have to compromise on the fit. Love the shoes, but do have to grumble about their sizing: the shoes are just wonderful, but there are only a few styles which are offered in what is truly a US 11 (despite how they label them - I can't even squeeze my foot into their "11", which is a 42). If they could more accurately label their sizing, and add more extended sizes in other styles, I'd have more pairs - love the footbed, love the support and, for "comfort shoes" the range of colours/finishes means you can be comfy while adding a little bit of bling and not feeling quite so frumpy.

I am happy with my purchase. I did my research on comfortable shoes for Europe. I actually considered a few other Naot pairs but settled on this one because of the back strap support. I alternated this with my Ecco Yucatans and did well in my 8 days of walking through Rome and Florence.

The cork insole offers great cushioning and eventually conforms to your own foot shape. Quality is excellent. It fits a narrow foot best. The range of materials and colors offered by Zappos is amazing, and goes way beyond what is available elsewhere. Zappos' service and return policies are unmatched.

These are absolutely great shoes! They fit my narrow feet (with bunions) perfectly and hit the bottom of my feet in exactly the right places. Note that NAOT has two fit types - shoes run narrow to medium and shoes that run medium. Look for that info in the item information. Narrow to medium fits me. These shoes are beautiful, showing more of the metallic leather the more that I wear them. They are worth every penny.

I was in shoe panic anticipating a long trip where I would be on my feet all day long, in both urban and trail-like environments. I needed something sturdy, comfortable and versatile in terms of style. These fit the bill brilliantly. They immediately felt fabulous - like walking on a cloud. And I could tighten the ankle strap when hiking on trails to give a little extra support. Full disclosure: I had previously ordered 7 other pairs of sandals and had to return them all, before I ordered these! I was trying to stay below the $100 mark. But when I finally ordered these, I came to the conclusion that the extra money was well worth it. These will last forever.

Many customers have commented favorably on the Kayla already. They fit me perfectly after a very short break-in period, but I returned two other pairs in the same size because the straps were not quite right. If you like shoes and the fit is slightly off, it is often worth trying another of the same.

Excellent footbed; love the look of an open airy style -- the support of the straps is in all the right places and keeps my foot solidly within the sandal. I highly recommend this and would buy additional colors. You can wear as a dress up or dress down sandal -- very versatile. I happen to have knee problems as well as bone issues in the foot and the cork bed provides enough support that I can handle walking in them for long periods of time. I'm flat footed so the height of this footbed and heel was just right for me.

I love this sandal -- it has amazing arch support. I normally have to wear orthotics in all my shoes, but these sandals are so well made and well designed that I don't need the orthotics at all. That's a first for me! They're also very nice looking, without that clunky, elderly, orthopedic vibe that is so common. Love all the different colors available too! Naot shoes really are worth the expense.

I have been suffering from plantar faciitis for a year despite many therapies. I have tried every shoe and sandal which podiatrists have recommended. The moment I put on these sandals I was amazed at the comfort and support. I wear them all day, even as slippers with my PJs. I wish Naot would make a slipper with this footbed. I wear a 91/2 and ordered this sandal in a 41. Fits perfectly, have ordered two pair and will get more for next year! Zappos returns are so easy. No worry about colors or size being wrong.

These sandals are very comfortable and having amazing arch support. I normally where a 7 to 7 1/2 in US sizes, sometimes I wear a 37 or 38 in EU sizes. I definitely needed the 38, if you are borderline order up on these shoes. The width was perfect. I've received many compliments and they look great with dress pants, jeans and shorts.

Zappos is the best company! I purchased 3 pairs of shoes. I liked the Kayla Naot shoe. Zappos happily returned the shoes with no charge. This is a great customer policy. I will ALWAYS buy my shoes from this company.
