Customer Reviews El Naturalista Yggdrasil N096

Even though I'm a big fan of this brand, the so called "medium" width is way too wide so I have to glue material to the sides to keep the shoes on. This being said, I still love them. I own 3 pairs of these clogs and one of the Mary Jane types. This one I'm reviewing is a 37 although my others are 36, so size is not consistent. Fortunately, Zappos allows one to "keep at it" until the right size appears!

Really cute shoes, and fairly comfortable even on a first-wearing. Wish they would not make the interior of the clog white--is sure to show dirt easily.

I found the size 38 ran small. I requested a credit so I could reorder size 39 and found no color available in size 39! Now I'm stuck, or I take the size 38s to a shoe repair store to be stretched!

I liked the look of these, and actually bought them based on a friends recommendation. However, once I got them, I found them heavy, heavier than my Dansko clogs, and tight on my semi-wide foot. If the heel didn't have that lip on it they would've felt acceptable, but I probably would've returned them anyway due to the tightness around my foot. I did find them very comfy when I walked around in them though. There's a a nice soft rubber sole and the heel is rounded. That makes it a soft impact and a well supported rocking motion when you walk. Shame they weren't wider. =(

I love this shoe but have sent two pair back because color is not even close to on screen (I've checked two different computers). I would give it 5 stars for everything else but color. I put true size but I have wide feet so this might not work for someone with narrow feet.

Cute shoe, too bad it has one of those toe lumps that is supposed to fit under your toes, but is not in the right place for me. Back they go!

I had to send these shoes back. Not only were they half a size too small, they appeared extremely clunky on my foot. Not a good choice for me.

Bought these in Lila because I did not have any purple shoes. Actually, I don't really look all that good in purple, but Lila is more of a magenta. Very comfy right out of the box. My foot is narrow and I have high arches and this shoe fits great. I wore them for the first time today, running errands all over town, & walked my 2 bassets in them for 2 miles and they were comfortable all day. These shoes, worn with cute jeans and a hand knit sweater will make anyone look like a North Carolina fiber artist.

The shoes are well made and I love wearing them. I get compliments all the time.

I love the fit and comfort of the shoe. Although the shoe itself is heavy, it doesn't feel so while wearing.

I love these shoes! I have them in brown and wear them both! They are comfortable and the size is perfect!

Unique and comfortable. Only complaint is that they are very heavy.

I love this shoe! Well, I just love this shoe. And everyone must suffer to be beautiful, right? As I've read other reviews, I see that the fit is not always perfect. For me, even though I bought the wide shoe, it is still a little tight across the top. But I am patient and trying to hope that they will stretch out.

The quality and style of this shoe is great... I think. It just did not even come close to fitting. Not even close. I have a big foot, and a larger size is not an option for me. The leather, stitching, sole ... all looked great. Some may want to know that the strap is not adjustable on the top.

I ordered this shoe because I have a small but wide foot. The front of the shoe fit but it rubbed on the instep, also the straps were very loose and didn't even touch my foot which looked a little odd on. They are a unique shoe, the sole is made of some recycled material, which looks awesome. They are a little on the heavy weight side also. Good looking shoe, just didn't feel good on my foot.

Great style - Yes, the shoe is in great style. I wear size 6 and half, and I purchased size 7. After wearing 4 times the shoe got larger. I felt like I am wearing size 8. Now the shoe sits in the closet. The problem is after wearing a couple times when shoe started getting larger and I couldn't return it for size 6. I like to continue buying with this brand, but I am not sure about the sizes.

I ordered these shoes because they came with a bag of tea and I thought, "wow this is so cool, shoes with free tea!!" I was very excited when my shoes came, and opened they in a hurry. when I tried the tea, I was very disappointed because I had thought it would taste more like a shoe, since it is "shoe tea." I was also disappointed because it was only one bag.. The shoes were very comfortable but I was expecting them to be better looking. These also didn't live up to my expectations because if I wear them with my skinny jeans I look like a girl from one of those "squirrel dog" fashions and that is not the look I'm going for.

I have several pairs of these in different colors. SO comfortable, especially if your feet are a little wide, and you can dress them up or dress them down. I cannot say the same of the El Naturalista with the backs on them - not comfortable.

Received as a gift - comfy and fun. Had to go a size up but that is likely due to my foot width. Once I did, it was a great fit. The opening on the top of the shoe is very flattering and they were comfortable at first wearing. I like these for their whimsical style and the fact that they're not as heavy and clunky as other comfort wear I've worn - e.g. Dansko. They are different enough that they will draw some attention, fyi. Be ready to answer questions!

I simply adored this shoe when I took it out of the box. Unfortunately the strap is too tight for my higher instep, so, alas, it's going back. It's such a shame this isn't elasticized!

I work 12+ hours in the hospital. Had terrible foot and shin pains during my pregnancy in 2008 and bought my very first pair. Foot pain resolved! I had many compliments about the shoe. In 2011 I bought a 2nd pair for my 2nd pregnancy. I will buy a 3rd pair as I am starting a new job and want a comfy shoe.

I tried these because of the rubber sole and low heel and open back clog style. A past auto accident has caused significant foot and ankle damage. These with the use of my orthotics or some Aetrex orthotic inserts allow me to walk more comfortably/decrease the pain from walking because the thick rubber sole absorbs most of the impact. I bought several pairs in a variety of colors and two in black for dress. When I find shoes that work this well and are cute, I get them!

I don't generally allow myself to spend this much money on shoes, but I needed something (a) comfortable, and (b) funky, and these shoes have those requirements in abundance! They are unbelievably comfortable right out of the box, and I'm thrilled with them and so glad I decided to make the purchase. And they're as eye-catching as they are comfy. I found these very true to size, and they have a nice, generous toebox that doesn't crowd. The craftsmanship appears outstanding. I will definitely order from this manufacturer again. If you're thinking about buying these shoes, just go ahead and do it!

So striking in color and design. I bought another pair in a different style thinking it would be dressier, but its not; these go with anything. They're totally comfortable. The one thing that would have be helpful is to make the strap adjustable. My favorite brand!

I have wanted these shoes for more than a year. I finally ordered them and they are fantastic. Well constructed and lovely. If you want a totally comfortable clog, this is for you. The colors are beautiful. I can't wait to order another pair.
