Customer Reviews Naot Paris

These are extremely comfortable and well-fitting, but the medium width is too narrow and pinched the outside of my foot. I am not fond of the shiny patent edge around the footbed, either.

Loved the look of the sandal, and the fit is great if your foot is a bit narrower than mine. The back strap hit the side bone in my foot and it just wasn't comfortable. But I would recommend these for everyday sandals that look great, and have nice support.

I never write these and then I realized how much I depend on them! Very cute shoes...I'm going to Italy for two weeks and need comfortable shoes for the cobblestone streets to go with both dresses and pants; Zappos has been amazing on this adventure. Saw these and had to try them despite some of the negative reviews. They dug in a bit just walking around the house, I can't imagine whole day in Rome! Had to send them back. My quest continues.

Very comfortable shoe, pinched my left little toe at first (my left foot is actually bigger than my right) but next time I tried, it was not a problem. It is like walking on a cloud.

Extremely comfortable, but looks too dark and heavy for what I was looking for. I have small-ish feet (size 6), and it feels like there is just too much heavy stitching and wide strapping. I suspect that for people who wear bigger sizes the balance works better. The 37 is listed as a size 6 but it's too big, I definitely recommend at 36 if you usually wear a 6.

These are the only Naots that have given me a problem. (Maybe bunions affects this) but my baby toes hurt when they get squeezed into the strap spaces. If the straps were designed as one piece instead of two, it would have been perfect. For those without bunions or whose baby toes don't happen to fall into the open spaces, it'll be perfect. Too bad couldn't be returned since it started to hurt after a full day's walk.

A stylish and very comfortable shoe. The foot bed on the outside of the straps is wider than I thought it'd be. It makes me feel like my feet are extra wide but it's clearly all shoe. A little bulky. Overall happy with them.

I wanted so badly to love these sandals. I spent a lot of time reading reviews, and they're pretty pricey. The problem with them, for me, is that they are a little bit too narrow. I can wear 10W or 10 regular, but these does do run slightly narrow. I've been wearing them for a few months now, so they're as worn in as they're going to be but they still rub my little toes wrong every single time I wear them. Also, I wanted sandals I could walk in. These give me friction burns on the bottom of my feet whenever I walk in them too much (anything more than a usual day's work). They're still good quality shoes, and nice looking but for the price I wanted them to be perfect. They are not. Softspots Tatiana is a more comfortable choice.

We are traveling in France and Italy this summer, so, of course, I started obsessing early about what shoes I would wear. I have problematic feet -- the soles of my feet get really sore really easily and I need good arch support. I tried so many pairs of sandals before I landed on this one. It is really comfortable (I am already wearing them all day long at work), and fairly stylish (compared with other "comfort shoes" that look really clunky). The straps are flexible, not stiff like some of the other brands I tried and totally comfortable (and I am really particular!) I have several pairs of Naots now and in sandals I always order a 38 (7) even though in most shoes I am a 39 (8). Like the brand, love Zappos!

Although the shoe is very comfortable and I like the style, it runs big. I can normally wear a size 6 and I ordered what was the size 6, but was sent a European 37, which seems much more like a 6 1/2. Although I kept the shoes, they are noticeably too long and I have to tighten the strap a lot, until I run out of velcro. Thus, I'd be careful if you are a small size 6.

Beautiful sandal, great looking strap layout/design. Very comfortable. Just one complaint - the strap should be longer so that you can cover up any exposed Velcro. I would have bought the sandal in another color, but did not want any uncovered Velcro to show, so I only bought it in black.

They are HUGE in the toe area. Weird. Very comfortable but they seem to run large.

The leather was stiff and rubbed on my pinky toe immediately. I tried to wear them in the house for a while to see if they'd soften up, but they didn't. Darn it. I have several pairs of the Naot Kayla and they are perfect in fit. But, these just didn't work for me. They're nice looking. Maybe it was just this pair. But, they're going back.

Very comfy sandal. A bit on the frumpy side but, in this case, practicality beat my fashion sense. Extremely comfortable from the first wearing and great for situations with a lot of walking, which is why I purchased them.

Sole not as cushioned as I expected from reviews, and the arch is a little less than I would have wanted. However, they stay on very well and don't rub anywhere, are overall comfortable.

Naot Paris is real good 'as an almost barefoot as a sandal can be shoe'. The shoe is comfortable, and the straps do hold in the right places. It does run just a little wide & long: about a 1/4th size. The Steel leather is a good blue denim shade. The leather could be a little firmer for it to be a "5" star.

The shoes are comfortable and cute, but it took some days and a few blisters (walking hours on stone streets) to break in. I have a small foot and the 35 fit much better than a 36.

Looks good on but took a bit of breaking in to keep the strap from chafing. The patent leather dresses up the look.

I have a very hectic itinerary in Europe coming up and wanted a sandal that can withstand long hours of daily walking on hot cobbled streets. I have small feet (size 5 in dress shoes) and flat arches. Ordered this shoe in 36 but was too big so got the 35 in peacock purple. The footbed is awesome! Soft and cushiony with enough arch support to prevent my plantar fasciitis from recurring, feels like I'm walking on a cloud. However, the top of the right strap pinched my pinky toe. Also, the heel the straps were loose. On my small feet, the shoes look a bit clunky. But it's not easy to find such a comfortable footbed for my flat feet so I'm keeping the shoe, hoping that the toe strap will stretch out. The loose heel straps can be tightened by the local cobbler.

Naot Paris (Burnt Copper): These are very comfortable, but the straps across the foot are a little loose. The ankle strap helps but still could be a little tighter. I'm normally a 7 and in these sandals my foot fits the depressed footbed perfectly, so I didn't order down to 6.5 despite the loose straps. I'm sticking with them and have been happy with them for casual wear.

Wearing these shoes is like walking on a cloud! The first time I put them on I couldn't believe how comfortable they were. I bought them for a trip to Europe and intended to alternate them with a pair of brown Birkenstocks. Unfortunately, my pinky toes ended up hitting the Naot in a funny spot and they would start to hurt after a long day of walking. However, they were great to wear for shorter periods of time and were stylish enough to wear out for the evening. My foot is on the narrow side, and these sandals were the slightest bit wide. When I tightened the ankle strap enough it seemed to deal with the issue pretty well. However, it would have been nice to have a way to adjust the straps across the foot. Overall, I'm very happy with the shoes and will be getting a lot of use out of them.

Very nice sandal. Good heel height, looks good while being comfortable. Unfortunately toe area of footbed is narrower than expected and has a raised lip, causing several toes to rub. Has to go back. Darn!

I cannot believe how comfortable the footbed of this sandal is - so soft and squishy! I like the adjustability of the velcro strap. My only concern is the weight of the sandal - that will take some getting used to. Glad to find a casual sandal that offers a bit of height and some style. The peacock color is a very dark plum, very pretty and neutral. For the record, I wear a size 5B (EU 36 in this sandal). I ordered this sandal from Zappos after it was clear that another vendor (whose name begins with "N", that I'd ordered from a week earlier still hadn't delivered. Zappos, your fast shipping rocks!

I really wanted to have the fabulous experience others talked about with these shoes. The first pair I ordered (39) was too big for my 7-7.5 feet, so I exchanged for the 38. The arch support is cushy but it doesn't seem to hit exactly right for me. I also have a bunion on my right foot that the strap hit just wrong, and a different strap pinched my small toe on the same foot. The shoe might have worked anyway with time and stretching out, but another part of my foot met another edge of the shoe and rubbed uncomfortably. I would say the shoe runs true to size and is a true medium -- great if your foot is medium but not so great if your foot is wider than medium. I ordered the peacock leather largely because I couldn't tell what color it was online, and now that I've seen the shoes, I'm extra sorry I have to send them back: the peacock color is a deep, slightly shimmery aubergine. A real knockout color. I wish these incredibly cute shoes would have been perfect enough to justify the price.
