Customer Reviews Naot Kirei

As a wedding photographer I have gone through about 100 pairs of black shoes looking for the perfect pair. After going 12 hours, my feet are always killing me, but with these shoes this is not the case. I never even think about my feet when I wear these shoes and they used to be my number one pain! I adore them. And I highly recommend them!!

The taupe shoe trim is much darker than the photo. The leather and patent leather trim in the photo looks bone or off-white colored, but in person, it's essentially as dark as the suede - looks like roughly the same color on all three types of leather. They were super comfy, but a tad too short for me. The body of the shoe was narrower than other Naot flats I have, which felt great on my narrow foot (with normal to wide ball of foot). This Kirei size 40 was definitely shorter and narrower than my Naot Matai shoes. Both of these shoes are in the "Koru" collection, therefore Medium width. Both have descriptions saying they run a size large. Not sure why they don't fit the same as each other.

Excellent shoe. It is so comfortable and stylish at the same time. Very pleased.

I'm still trying these out. I tried to wear them without socks and I didn't feel they were comfortable. I tried them with thin socks and they did much better. Several people mentioned that the shoes ran large but I didn't feel that way. I ordered my usual size and they fit. I like the looks of the shoes and feel I can wear them with jeans and skirts. They are very comfortable and all and all a good shoe.

I have these shoes in Black and Blue. I love them! I bought them because I had back surgery and I needed a comfortable shoe.

I ordered these shoes a size smaller than I normally wear as recommended. The shoes were too small. I ordered them in my normal size, and they fit beautifully. The color is more of wine color than a purple, a very pretty color. The service was excellent. I was sent the larger size and told to return the pair that I did not want.

These are great little shoes. The fit is true to Naot sizing and have nice roomy toes. They are quite versatile and can go from casual to more dressy. The design of leather across the front along with suede on the tips makes the shoe look dainty and less casual. The cork insoles are extremely comfortable - an all-day walker.

The most amazing feeling shoes in the world! Feel like ultimate support slippers!

Great shoe. The color, style, look, and comfort is a home run! I typically am a 10 1/2, an 11 usually a bit big and sloppy. These fit perfect. Treat yourself, buy now.

I had these in black and liked them so much that I ordered them in this color. I love these shoes! It is like wearing a comfortable slipper. Plus, they are versatile. They look great with pants, skirts, and nearly everything else!

Very cute and adjusts for my narrow foot. I plan to wear them when traveling because of their good support.

This is a beautifully made and exceptionally comfortable shoe with excellent support. More urban and sophisticated than the usual Naot. If you had to take only one shoe on a trip to European cities, this is it. The toe is designed for the true shape of a foot, not squeezing down and inward on the big toe. In black suede, it could go from jeans to a suit. There is just one drawback to this otherwise perfect shoe and that is the placement of the mary jane strap up close to the ankle like a little girl's shoe making you look flatfooted from certain angles. If not for that, it could even be called elegant. I'm still on the fence about that strap, these will go back if I can do better.

These shoes are amazing, I took them to europe and walked all over the place (without socks) and they were awesome! My feet did not sweat, smell, or hurt! And I did not get any blisters! They form to your feet, I did not even break them in, the shoes arrived the day before I left.

It's like they changed the shoe with the Sterling. I'm keeping it because I desperately need gray flats, but these do not feel the same as the other colors (and I have them all). The strap is shorter for one thing. The shoe feels tighter all over and shorter. And the insole is different. Beautiful color, though. And don't believe the note. These do not run large. I had to go to a 42 in these and I invariably wear a 41 in NAOT sandals, so I'd say they run at best true to size and maybe a bit small. I would give the shoe in other colors all 5 stars, but this would only get a 3 for comfort.

These are the most comfortable shoes ever. I have them in 3 colors. I wear them to work because I walk several miles throughout the day.

I bought these for my mother who is 90 years old. Great fit, comfortable, true to size.

Great shoe and super comfortable. I have to wear orthotics and they fit well in this shoe.

Eureka! This is the shoe that accommodates my orthotics (removable insole) and is comfortable on first wearing and does not look like a sneaker. Yay!

Love this shoe. Stylish yet comfortable. Does run large, but with a sock it is great. Narrow size fits me well.

This shoe instantly caught my eye. It has got to be one of THE most comfortable pair of shoes I own. It almost feels like wearing slippers - there's no breaking these shoes in - they are pure comfort to wear all day and all evening and look great with all sorts of clothes including sportswear. The cork bedding is very soft, the overall quality of this shoe is worth purchasing if you need a shoe that looks great and is guaranteed to be comfortable. I bought a pair in black and am planning to purchase in brown as well.
