I bought these shoes before and wore them for probably 10 years. I looked and looked for a new pair of black sandals and found nothing better so I bought them again!

The 41 was too small for me.....and the color was more of a brownish-bronze rather than silver. (It did not come in a Naot box, but rather in a cardboard box). The 42, which I also ordered, was a silver color. I ordered both sizes in the "metal leather" color, so not sure why the differences. Unfortunately neither size fit due to my high arches. It just kept pushing my foot back, over the heel. I have many Naot shoes and I'm disappointed I won't be keeping either of these.

Narrow last. Excellent support. Great looking shoe. Disappointing.

These sandals are the most COMFORTABLE shoes I have ever put on my feet! I wear them every day, all year long (with socks in the winter). Am replacing them because I wore the tread down after at least 3 years of constant use.
Please don’t ever discontinue this shoe.

This sandal is much smaller than other Naot sandals of the same size. I had a pair of this same shoe years ago and I loved it. But this time I could barely get my foot in the sandal.

This is my 3rd pair of Ashley! I replace them every two years. Best walking sandals ever, support and hug your feet. Love them!

First, the size. I usually wear a 9 1/2 shoe. I tried both the 40 (size 9) and the 41 (size 10). The 41 is perfect. I have narrow feet and a wider toe box which has gotten worse as I've gotten older. Usually I have trouble with any band that covers the "bunion" area of the big toe but the leather on these sandals is buttery soft and perfectly comfortable.
Second, these are far and away the most comfortable sandals I have purchased since struggling with aging foot issues. The foot bed is soft and has just the right amount of support under the metatarsal pad of the foot and the arch. The upper strap is at just the right location to prevent "walking out" of the sandal which happens to me with many slides, plus there is elastic in the strap that has enough "give" to prevent chafing. As stated above, the strap closest to the toes is soft and just at the right location to prevent chafing on the bunion although I usually wear a blister bandage over this area if I'm going to be walking for any length of time. That last statement would have unthinkable until I tried these sandals.
Finally the color and style are nice enough to wear out to a casual dinner, especially with the little bit of "bling" on the strap. I am overjoyed with these and plan to buy other Naots.

I have this same footbed in different styles and colors. They are very comfortable to wear even if I am on my feet for an extended period of time. I have a narrow foot and the upper straps hold my feet well and keep them from sliding forward.

I was delighted with this shoe. I am a new fan of Naots after trying this brand for the first time. My feet are narrow with a high arch, and I love the fit.

This shoe hardly needs more positive reviews, but I wanted to write up Ashley vs Marissa vs Kayla sizing/fit experience which others searching Naot styles might find useful at some point. Naot shoes are so amazingly comfortable when you get the style/size right but they're not cheap so the more information before buying, the better! I am a US 11, and tried a pair of 43 Ashley a couple of years ago - they were way too small/narrow (my foot literally hung over the sides). Sent them back, and wound up with a pair of 44 Naot Kayla instead. Those were big-ish, but wearable (and very comfortable, at least until they stretched out after the second summer). Based on that, when I found a pair of Marissa on sale in a 44, I went ahead and got them. I thought they would be fine, but if I wore them for more than a little while, or walked any distance, they always hurt my instep as the footbed cut into my arch (something Kayla never did). The elastic was surprisingly tight and didn't stretch out as I had anticipated/hoped; while wearable (and a very attractive style), they didn't provide the same kind of Naot comfort. Scroll forward to a recent sale of the Naot Ashley in a size 43. I searched online but could find no comparison of Ashley vs Marissa - they are similar, but based on pictures I wondered if the slightly different straps could make a difference. Since all of my 44's are really too big and they were very discounted, I thought what the heck and gave them a try. At last. The perfect Naot slide. They've either re-sized them, or that first pair of Ashley I tried on were mis-marked, as these are just right - no question the 43 is an 11 (not a 12). The straps/elastic are noticeably less tight and I'm having none of the cut-into-the-arch problem I had with the Marissa. I don't know if Naot has adjusted their sizing slightly since the last time I tried Ashley (3 years ago) to run a little longer, the Marissa and the Ashley genuinely have as different a fit as I'm experiencing, or I just got lucky with this pair but...happy feet! I guess the moral here is if you have trouble getting a Naot sandal to feel just right, try some of the other styles and sizes, and maybe even another pair of the same model - you may be pleasantly surprised.

These are great shoes! Helped my flat feet feel comfy walking around New Orleans during the French Quarter Festival. Just be careful walking on those wonky N'awlins sidewalks... They did feel narrower than I expected. Usually Medium widths feel wider than this brand's Medium. I have narrow feet, so I was bummed that they only had Mediums in my size - but it turned out to be the right width for me.

I got the embossed pearl and they are so, cute with a little bling. Even though they are flats, the cushion/support is amazing. I have a low profile (bony) foot with an average forefoot and narrow heel, they keep my foot in place w/o slippage or pinching. I'm a size 11.5/12 and 43 fit perfect with a little extra room at toe so, no hanging toes over the edge.

Love these sandals!! Wore them to a wedding. It was a hot day and I did not want to wear the dressy sandals I had bought for the wedding.So, I wore these and was I glad. These shoes are so comfortable! Danced all night too.

I have wide, ugly feet and these are the only sandals I have found that make my feet look not so hideous. I love the look of a sandal in the summer (on other women) but usually try to hide my toes in shoes. The wide strap closest to my toes has enough coverage that I feel comfortable wearing these sandals. They actually make my feet look slim. The giving leather+ elastic accommodate my wide feet very well. I have had these for three seasons and elastic is still like new. These are cute with skirts, jeans, even yoga pants. They are my go-to shoes around the house even in winter due to the arch support and easy slip-on. Pricey, but one of the best shoe purchases I have ever made. My shoe size is normally 8.5 WW, but in these size 41 fit me perfectly. I have the copper color...very attractive, neutral medium brown.

So comfortable! Didn't need to break these in. Definitely get a size bigger. I am always a 39 and couldn't even fit my foot in it. Had to get 40. Everyone loves them and comments on them.

Very happy with this shoe. Needed a good support sandal to be able to walk around town. Naot's fit narrowly in general which is great for me. Other shoes in this category are way too wide. I also wear a size 11 women's which should be a 41 but the 42 was the perfect fit. The cork started to mold to my foot right away and it seems like they get more and more comfortable each time I wear them.

Love my Naot sandals. This brand of sandal was recommended to me as I have issues with my feet and need extra support. I also want style and my Naots (I have 4 pair) fit the bill. I thought that I might never be able to wear sandals until I found my Naots.

Wish they were just a tad longer, but good enough to keep because they felt comfortable from the get go. Will give them the true comfort test walking all day at Disney!

Love these. I've worn Naot sandals for years without my necessary orthotics. These dressier sandals are just as comfortable and supportive.
I went up a half size to get the length I needed.
At first the right foot arch strap felt loose but I've gotten used to it.

So I bought 3 different Naots for an upcoming trip, fully expecting to return all three due to my foot problems. This is the sandal I truly believed I would return as I normally cannot wear pretty fashionable shoes. Well, even this one fits great and is so comfortable. I can't believe I am keeping all 3! My foot was very swollen and the elastic was a little tight on that day, but since the swelling has gone down, it fits great on that bad foot.

I have or owned 8 pairs of Naot Ashley shoes, 4 in the steel color. They are comfortable and classy looking and can be worn to the beach or when you are dressed for a night out.

Just received my second pair of Naot's in this style. So very comfortable, and the first pair has lasted well. I enjoy these as a casual and comfortable sandal with enough style to wear for nicer restaurants and events.
