Customer Reviews Naot Kayla

I thought these were so cute online, but they were too narrow and too small for me. I am usually a 7.5/8 and the 39 was too small.

The support of these sandals is great and I love that I can adjust the strap; however, they are sized one size too short.

This is the first time that I bought Kayla sandals that were too narrow. I have three pairs of size 41 in different colors and they were all perfectly comfortable and beautifully fitting right out of the box. These appear to have slightly shorter straps across the foot - so they feel tight. I am very disappointed in Naot. Their quality does seem to be slipping. I will exchange these and hope for the best in the next pair they send me. Sigh.

I am a huge fan of Naot, but this color is pictured more as a gold, and it actually has the color of "biscuits."

I love Zappos, Naot, and the Kayla and have had 4 pairs. But be aware that the "Biscuit" color is NOTHING like the picture. The leather appears to be dried and bleached. The color is uneven, mottled, and nothing like the picture. I returned the first pair thinking it was defective and the replacement pair came looking just the same. A small tag says that the leather has been "uniquely processed by hand in order to achieve a distressed effect" but there's no indication of that in the picture. A closer look at the color listing shows that "Biscuit" is called "Zappos.com exclusive color." This needs to be explained. The tag on the shoe itself says that the color "changes substantially as it is worn" but I'm not willing to chance it so am returning these.

Very disappointed in fit (too big though I ordered a 6 instead of 6.5 which is my usual size), and the color is more beige than in the photo. Looks well made and probably comfortable if it fit.

These sandals are very comfortable. My sister loves them, but alas, they run small and narrow. I can't wear them. This color is a rather unusual mottled beige. Once I realized they were supposed to be like that (not damaged) I decided I liked it, but still had to go back because of size.

Shoe was too narrow. It would've been fine in length; however, I could not get my foot in it. I really liked the style, but they did not have a wider width in size 13.

Seems like they would have been perfect if they weren't too narrow. Please make this shoe in a wider width! I would say my feet are only slightly wider than average. Most average width shoes fit. These did not. So disappointed.

The style was exactly what I was looking for, but the strap across the heel is too loose and there is no way it adjust it. Also, it runs a bit wide. As far as I can tell there is excellent arch support.

If you have low arches and narrow heels, you may find Velcro closings and their lack of adjustability a problem. I do. The middle strap on Kayla was too long and loose for my foot and I was not able to tighten the Velcro strap enough. Speedy on and off is not worth it. Here is to buckles!

Beautiful sandals, but I found the velcro strap at the ankle rubs/scratches (it doe not fold back as on other models), and the toe length is a little short. Does not have the same feeling as being cradled in a soft footbed as other Naot I've tried.

Really surprised at all the wonderful reviews for the Naot Kayla. I have worn a pair of size nine Naot slide sandals for years and they must be making their shoes much narrower these days. I purchased a size nine and my medium size foot looked like a stuffed sausage in this shoe. A size ten would probably be longer and I do not think I need it to be significantly longer. They are insanely narrow and I don't have that wide of a foot to begin with. I usually wear a size nine and a half. Worst issue was the back strap.. though I lightly fastened it, it rubbed horribly against my ankle in the first five seconds I tried it on. I am terribly disappointed as the style with the metallic leather was so pretty but these could never work for me.

I agree with the other reviewers. The shoe runs a bit narrow. I am a B and it fits but is certainly more narrow than other B width sandals by Naot. I bought mine about 2 months ago and the straps are already stretched out. I'm disappointed! I do love the shoe though and may try a patent leather one to test. It's an expensive test though!

Sadly, these went back. They are cute and comfortable, but the very front strap is way too big for my regular medium width feet. The second strap was just right, but it will stretch and then the shoes will be hanging by the ankle strap only, and already the shoe did not feel stable at all because of the lose front strap. I really wish the front straps were adjustable. I will be trying Sophia and Madison next. Also I had to go up to 8 (I usually wear 7½ and 38 in Euro sizes but had to size up to 39 in Naot or the back of the heel was resting on the back edge uncomfortably. 39 was perfect length).

Beautiful shoes and they feel like you're walking on a sandy beach. The upper leather straps, however, are tight and non adjustable. I assume walking in my classroom all day would be uncomfortable. It would be nice if they made those straps with velcro closures. For this reason I'm retuning them.

Love Zappos! I wear a 7.5 in most shoes so, I ordered this in 39. My foot was swimming in it! Leather is soft but the middle strap is way too big for my skinny foot.

After finding out I had stress fractures in the balls of both feet, I was told to find shoes with a stiff sole. I immediately remembered a pair of Naots I bought several years ago. The footbed is as I remembered: comfortable, stiffer, and somewhat formed to the foot (also runs narrow). However, the straps/upper parts are not as nice...more plastic-y feeling. I'm keeping them because of my personal situation, but the quality does not match the price point.

Bought the Black Patent and this Silver Snake. Both the same size. The straps are too loose on the silver snake I think because of the softness of the leather.

This is my fourth pair of Naot Kayla in various colors and the first time I've been disappointed. The "black matte leather" color leaves stains on my feet. Also, I got a blister the first time I wore these. Didn't happen with the green nubuck, blue metallic, or copper color Kayla's I have worn and loved for years. I sure hope this is a fluke and Naot hasn't downgraded their leather quality!

I usually wear a 43, but ordered up on the advice of the other reviews. The 44 length would have worked out for me, but they also run very narrow. My feet are "average" width, but these were so tight that I could barely cram my foot in. They fit my mother - who wears an 11.5 narrow - far better than they fit me (12 M).

Support-wise they seemed like they would have been great, as i tried them on indoors around the house. However, they were just too narrow and had to return them. I've never had to order a wide width in shoes before, so i think my width is pretty "normal." but these shoes definitely ran narrow! I even ordered the next size up hoping they would work. Nope, still too narrow.

Although the shoes fit comfortably and were able to wear them without a break in period, after walking 5-10 miles/day in France, the first strap loosened up and my toes moved around a lot causing blisters on my toes (foot moved a lot especially on uneven pavement/cobblestone streets). Velcroed bottom straps would alleviate this problem.

I bought these shoes a couple of months ago to wear to South America. The footbed and sole are very comfortable. All the straps are fairly comfortable. The closure strap that goes over the arch is way too long. To keep the shoes on my feet, I have to put it very near the end of the Velcro. Now it keeps popping open constantly because the strap has stretched so much. The "leather" is low quality and looks cheap. The shoes have become unwearable for the most part. I have tried to find a shoe repair place that can shorten the closure strap and perhaps add more Velcro. I have been unsuccessful. I paid way too much for these shoes and do not think that I will purchase Naots again.
