Customer Reviews Naot Rahina

High quality, comfort shoes. Although my feet are most happy with custom orthotics, Naot is one of the only brands I've found that I can wear comfortably as an alternative. As with all Naot shoes, this shoe is constructed from extremely high quality materials and fits like a glove. Plus, for a comfort shoe, the style is really cute. My shoes size is normally a 9 and the size 9 equivalent in this shoe fit me perfectly. Highly recommend this shoe and brand for finicky feet.

These shoes are awesome! I have worn them literally every day since I bought them. This was my first pair of NAOTs and I was hesitant because of the price but they are worth every penny.

These are one of the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. As comfy as a cross trainer but really cute. I love the metallic finish. I debated over spending that much but they are totally worth it. They are well made so I can tell they will last a long time.

I had to go up to a 39 and it fit! I like the way the shoe looks and the hook and loop closure.

Great shoe. I normally take a size 6 but the description suggested that I order down a size since they run large so I ordered a size 5 and they fit wonderfully. These shoes are expensive but so worth it. They fit great, have a good arch support and my feet were not tired or sore at the end of the day. I can't wait to order more Naot shoes. I now have a new favorite brand of shoe.

Liked how this shoe looked, but would have liked it better if the cut edge would have been more finished. Main problem, though, was my toes turn up and the toe box pressed on the top of my toes. Knew if I wore them all day, I would have had sore, pressure-bruised, or blistered toes. Bummer. I am so grateful that I do not have to go to a mall and try on and walk and walk and around only to come home with a shoe that hurts. Thank you, Zappos!

I love this shoe. It's comfortable, all day comfortable! It's classy; dress it up or dress it down, it goes either way. A great shoe and Zappos had it at my door very quickly. Thanks Zappos.

I went through so many brands of shoes looking for the perfect Europe travel shoe. Qualifications being dressy, yet able to run and or walk for 12 plus miles a day and not be foot weary. These were the only ones that worked! I ran 5 miles in them to test them and they felt great, so I took them abroad and they proved highly worthy. So far out of all the brands of shoes I've taken overseas with me, this is the only brand that's worked every time and has never given me blisters!

I LOVE these shoes, and have ordered them before. I recommend going a size larger than before, as I also ordered a 40 (my usual size) and it was too small, as I am noticing with all of my new Naot shoes. I am disappointed in this particular pair, as it gaps around the sides, which I have never experienced with the Rahina before, and I own this shoe in 4 different colors ordered over the last couple of years (black, red, brown and blue). Unfortunately, my black ones are just worn out, necessitating this purchase. Sadly, am returning these wonderfully comfortable shoes.

I love Naot shoes (even though I really wish they would make 1/2 sizes) but have found that each style fit's a bit differently. I am a size 8 although my left foot is slightly longer so I usually take a size 40. I have high arches and arthritis in my feet and, as of late, that has made finding comfortable shoes and boots challenging. Thank goodness for Zappos!!! While I'm not a huge fan of the mary jane style, these days I have found them to be the most comfortable style for me. The Naot Rahina is just lovely in every way. They fit comfortably right out of the box and are really pretty. The only thing that bothers me slightly is that they are a tiny bit loose where the shoe comes up from the top of my toes. All in all I am quite happy with this style and am keeping these and hoping that Naot comes out with some new styles in the spring. I have tried a lot of different shoes and Naot are by far the most comfortable and long lasting shoes out there in my opinion. I also have a pair of the Naot Kirei and several pars of Naot sandals which are equally as comfortable.

These are comfortable; like wearing moccasins though. Not much support and they definitely do not run big, as the description says--if anything they run a quarter size shorter than most naots. If you have narrow feet no worries. I have a narrow foot and these are perfect.

I wanted a pair of shoes that felt like sneakers but can be worn for city walking. Order your regular size and expect to go barefoot in these. They fit nicely to my wide foot. I have plantar fasciitis and these have a good "well" for my heel. I wish the strap was a little lower and not at my ankle. I also asked if they had this model with plain leather only (no nubuck) and they directed me to try Nau Mai which also feel good but the Rahina feels wider at the toes.

If you are looking for soft, flexible comfort, these shoes, along with the Matai, are great. If you are looking for unusual and amusing style, you got it, although I would agree with another comment that the strap is a little high on the foot (in black shoe, brown strap lining easily shows also) and socks look funny. If you are looking for a lining that is entirely leather, these are not it -- the front of the toe area is synthetic. I also ordered the 11, knowing I often wear 11.5 and reading that these run large. At this size, they do not -- bare toes just hit the end. Moderate to excellent arch support for low arches. Must add really well-made, too.

These are very comfortable shoes but I am not as happy with the style. They look cute with pants but I wear mostly skirts and the location of the strap is not very flattering.

I love these mary janes! They are wonderful. I gave up wearing heels a few years ago and now care more about comfort and something that looks good on my feet as opposed to a show-stopper but painful shoe.

I have a narrow heel, small bunion and my foot is thin. I need narrows but can’t always get them to fit. If they fit in the heel, they’re too tight in the toe box This is why I go to the Mary Jane style. The strap helps it stay on my foot, but typically the toe box provides a little more room. This shoe is a medium width but works for me. Naots, if you’ve never worn them, are VERY comfortable. This style fits my narrow heel pretty well, while providing plenty of room in the toe box. However it does gap a little mid-foot. Doesn’t bother me, but if that bothers you, just be aware. You can also remove the footbed and put in an orthotic I believe.

I have size 7.5-8.0 narrow feet. I usually order the Mary Jane style because I cannot get loafer styles to stay on my heel without them being too tight in the toe box. I love Naots because they are so comfortable. This shoe fits me well in a size 39 and is comfortable right out of the box, with plenty of room in the toe box and bonus - they’re cute! Happy with this purchase!

Great fit and very comfortable, even after being on my feet all day at work. This is my second pair of Noats (first was a pair of sandals), and I will buy more.

Fit and size were great...had to chose betwen this style and Naot Toatoa......decided I liked Toatoa better

These shoes are true to size. I am not sure why there is a note that they run large. I did not find that to be true.

Thank you Zappos for letting me try on so many shoes in my search for the perfect walking shoe for my upcoming trip to Europe. I have very difficult feet with bunions and plantar fansciitis. The Naot Rahina felt comfortable right out of the box. I can wear them comfortably with or without socks. I can also remove the footbed and insert my custom orthotics. The toe box is very roomy and my heel doesn't slip. They also have great arch support. Very comfortable! I also tried the Naot Matai and Naot ToaToa. The Naot Rahina fit my feet best.

I love these shoes. I originally bought them several years ago and wore them nearly everyday at work -- and I worked on my feet running up and down stairs CONSTANTLY. I literally wore them until they began to fall apart, which took years. When I saw that my size was out of stock, I waited until they came back in, rather than choose another Noat shoe. Strongly recommend them.

This are really a cute shoes, seemed to have good support for my foot problems of tendonitis and plantar fasciitis. The 41, my usual size in other shoes was a perfect fit. I tried these and the Kirei. The Kirei was the winner because they made my size 10 feet look smaller! But these are fantastic shoes, and would have met my needs otherwise. These are perhaps a little more casual looking also, and I was looking for both a casual/dressy look in one style.

THANK YOU ZAPPO’s! Without your wonderful return policy and friendliest customer service, I would never have found my new Maryjanes. These shoes are ridiculously comfortable and like all Naots (had to try a few before these came) they are beautifully crafted with quality material. I love the little cut out design, detailing and suede for added contrast. Makes the shoe stand out and NOT look like granny shoes. As to the squeaking issue I’ve read in other reviews...mine squeak a little but not enough to return. Love them way too much. As far as sizing goes I find the Rahina run true to size. The Naot Sea were returned as they were too big. I am an 81/2 Medium and the 39 fits perfectly. I am a 39 in Fly London’s as well.
