Customer Reviews Naot Kayla

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.

I have another pair of Naot sandals that I love. I traipsed all over Yellowstone with them and wanted another pair. These just aren't as comfortable.

Wanted to like these but the strap in the back runs low on the back of the heel which I don't like. The Naot shoes also seem to be smaller than they were when I've previously bough them.

I was really looking forward to wearing these on an upcoming vacation, but I'll have to return them. Unfortunately, they're a bit too short for EU 36 (and a little tight on the width for me)! I always wear a 36 for sandals and my toes go all the way up to the front edge on these. The strange thing is that the Naot Karennas in size 36 do fit, and are visibly longer than these Kaylas (by more than a 1/4 inch). I don't know how the sizes can be different within the same brand, but I'm thinking of trying the 37 to see how those feel.

In my opinion, Naot sizing on this sandal is goofy! I own three other pairs of sandals by Naot in size 38 so I felt comfortable ordering a 38. It runs narrow and a bit too short! Bummer. I will send them back because of the sizing, but the leather and foot bed are nice quality. Also, you can't beat Zappos' service.

These are very cute, and I wish I could keep them. But the straps that connect around the ankle happen to be sewn together right where they are best positioned to rub against the arch of my foot. I can tell it will irritate the bejeebers out of me. Also, I bought my usual size but they feel short. My toes were hitting right at the very front end of the soles.

When you read reviews that say this style runs narrow...believe them. I wear an 8B, but after reading the reviews here I ordered a 9B...shoe fits perfectly...so comfortable but this style runs narrow. Had to return them. Perhaps I could have worn them and after a few weeks the leather might have stretched out...but didn't want to take the chance. Will return and order another style from Naot. Because I ordered from Zappos I have this easy quick option!

Usually wear a 10.5 but since this sandal doesn't come in that size, I ordered an 11. My toes were hanging over the end. Ordered the 12s and the sandal still felt very narrow and weren't long enough. Like the feel of the arch support, but I don't think this shoe is sized properly.

Too narrow for me. Naot makes a line that runs medium (this is from that line) but I could hardly squeeze my foot in. Going back.
