Customer Reviews Naot Kirei

When I first tried these shoes, I thought they were incredibly comfortable, and my only problem was deciding which color to get. After wearing them for long periods, however, I find that they can get a little hard on your feet by the end of the day, and they do require a small amount of breaking in. They are still pretty good, but not perfect. The toe shape is very natural, but the strap across the instep can be a problem; sometimes it needs a lot of adjusting. I have a friend with the same pair of shoes who found its placement does not work for her at all. One thing I have noticed recently is that the shoes have really started to smell. I have had them for less than a year. This is pretty annoying for how expensive they are. I would recommend these, but with some reservations.

Wonderful shoes. Naot always comfortable and these get lots of compliments on the way they look.

I decided on this shoe because of the good reviews and Naot reputation. It is extremely comfortable and feels custom fit. I wear them to work; with or without socks and they are still comfortable. My only complaint is after about a month of wear, the right shoe squeaks (reason for 4 stars overall). I didn't expect this for the price and I am a little disappointed. Although I've had them for about 3 months I am still considering returning them but would replace with the same shoe.

These are very cute. I like Naot but I couldn't get the fit right with this style. My regular size was a bit too big and the next size down was a bit too small. Had to return.

I own these in black, my favorite shoe. Tried ordering in brown, but wrong size shipped. Easy return, but second pair not made well. I love the black so much I will try one more exchange on the brown and hope for the best. Thanks Zappos.

Love these shoes. I have a heel spur and seem to do best in shoes with a cork footbed. These are so feminine and look great with jeans and/or casual pants. I like the variety of texture on the shoe -- suede, leather and patent. They are not big and bulky at all. They are very comfy without socks. I am a preschool teacher and spend all day on my feet.The only problem is that some of the patent has come off so I rated it 4 stars.

I just got back from a three-week trip to Europe during which I wore these shoes nearly every day, walking on cobblestones and hard museum floors. My problematic feet never got tired and achy -- while even my 15-year-old had sore feet by week two. They are not my ideal fashion shoe but looked almost like ballet flats with my skinny jeans. Expensive but worth it.

Comfortable shoes from day one. I got it in size 9 and in black. Toe box is smaller than it\'s pictured but it kind of looks cute, like a ballerina Mary Jane. My other Naot shoes were impossible to wear out, so I hope this one lasts a long time too.

The shoes are too wide. My order was for the size 41 Medium but the box they came in says Kirei Wide size 41. They don't fit like my normal size 41 Naot Kirei shoes do. I've ordered them for years in this size.

These are comfortable shoes and just right for the office. If I’m being picky, I’m not excited about the bronze colored and patent leather straps, and I wish the toebox had better room for the middle and little toes. My main issue is that the one pair of these really pricey shoes creaks and sighs as I walk. The other color doesn’t do this so it didn’t occur to me to try them before wearing them outside.

I have worn Naot Kirei for years and have several pairs. Since chemo treatment, I developed Neuropathy in the forefront of my feet. All of my shoes are size 40 Med. For some extra toe room and comfort, I ordered size 41 Wide in both the black suede and the navy suede. They fit tighter than my 40 M and not because they were stretched out (I compared to my new 40 M). Not sure what happened to Naots sizing but it has definitely changed. Very disappointed.

I like the shoes but ended up returning them. The sole of the shoe is slippery, some kind of smooth plastic not a grippy rubber. The did not work with tile floors.

I found these really stiff and uncomfortable.

The shoes might have been okay, but they made squeaky sounds with walking. The sounds were coming from both shoes making them impossible to wear.

This shoe felt true to size but did seem wide. I had gaping on both sides of my foot even with the Velcro strap. Arch support was very good for my high arches. It was disappointing that the right shoe had numerous scuff marks in the toe area. Due to the width issue and scuff marks I am returning.

My feet have multiple problems, including neuropathy and previous Achilles surgeries. So even though these shoes aren't as comfortable as I'd hoped, they might be perfect for some people.

My daughter tried two different Naot styles of black mary jane shoes. This one, the Kirei, was too tight across the top of foot. The patent leather was very shiny and she decided she preferred "not so shiny." Good brand, just not what she'd hoped for, so it's going back.

The fit is definitely different than the same style Naots from a couple of years ago. This wide width was narrower and I had to size up, but that size didn't really fit and it still felt narrow. Would have loved to love them because my older Naots are my go to travel shoe.

I wear a size 39W (size 8 US) but this size 39W was way too snug and my toes reached the end of the toe area. Naot must have changed the shoe sizing or configuration. Will exchange for a larger size and I hope it fits because this shoe is one of the best for traveling and walking all day long.

Toe box has an odd shape

I bought one pair not from zappos and another from zappos ..i bout the second one thinking it amazing but wearing it every day makes my feet hurt after taking them off ..i didn't know its the shoes since it so comfortable when you put them on but the pain im getting its just the days that i wear them ..i kept one and returned zappos..i think the saul is not wide enogh..but the arch support is excellent

I have two other pairs of this same style but they are suede rather than smooth leather. For this reason I sent back the smooth pair and placed an order for the suede shoes. There is more give with the suede than there is with the smooth leather. This makes my feet very happy. Love these shoes!

I have Naot sandals that I like, but these shoes were much too stiff to wear for any length of time. They were returned...

I ordered a size down and in wide, and it was too small. I have problem feet with bunions and the top edge of the shoe was too harsh on my toes. Has a wonderful, supportive foot bed. I almost always have to get suede shoes because they give more, or a very supple, soft leather. The strap came at the wrong spot on my foot too. I like the strap on the Agaita Naot shoe which is thin and higher up on the foot. Will have to order another pair of those.
