Customer Reviews Naot Kirei

Compliments galore from my friends. In addition, it is extremely comfortable -- walking, jazz class, etc. A winner!

I love the Naot brand. I find all their shoes to be supremely comfortable with practically no break in time needed. I have chronic back pain issues and a couple jobs that require me to be on my feet 7 to ten hours a day and Naot consistently keeps me up and moving and the removable foot bed allows me to switch out to my orthotics (but often I don't even need to). With that said I have been a little disappointed that the Kirei shoe has not held up to my work schedule. I have been using them almost exclusively as my sole work shoe for almost two years now and the velcro straps have deteriorated and the soles show heavy wear. I know I have been giving them a lot of hard use - but it still is causing me to hesitate about buying another Naot shoe for work. I know they are the best for me - but I really want something to last if I am going to pay that much.

Put these on right out of the box and walked around the city all day. They are incredibly comfortable. True to size and very cute.

I love Naot and wanted a pair of shoes for heavy walking in Europe yet with a closed toe in case of chilly weather. I am not one to wear athletic shoes other than working out...want my style. Although these are not super cute but they are the most comfortable Naots I have owned. I have owned many Naot sandals. I put these on and wore all day long with no rubbing or sore feet!

These are actually quite a good looking shoe and very, very comfortable. I wanted a closed shoe for the colder days when sandals aren't a good choice and these are perfect. Feel true to size and I think they work right out of the box without any breaking in time. So happy to have discovered this brand and Zappos!

Love this shoe! Great for walking; stylish and comfortable. Also have this in copper. Wide toe box great for my bunions.

I have bought these shoes twice. They are excellent, especially if you have foot problems, such as gout, and arthritis. They wear very well. I wear mine constantly.

These definitely run small. I bought a pair of Naot shoes a year ago in size 39. I ordered these in a 39 thinking they would be the same. I returned them and will now order a 40. Cute shoes though. I should have noted though that for these shoes they translate size 39 as an 8.

I love this shoe! Perfect fit right out of the box. It is a cute, low profile shoe that looks great with everything. A lot of comfort without being clunky.

Unbelievably comfortable. I'd call them cute rather than elegant but the way they make my feet feel at the end of the day? I'll take comfort over elegance any time. I want more.

I teach and am on my feet most of the day. These shoes are very comfortable and my feet were not tired by the end of the day. I have worn them with capris and casual dresses. True to size.

I ordered these shoes for a trip that involved a lot of walking on cobblestones. They were perfect! I even wore them to dinner-not my usual style, but they were so comfortable. As the cork footbed conforms to your foot, they become even more comfortable.

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.
