Customer Reviews Native Shoes Jefferson

I may have found the perfect shoe for the gym. This shoe really grips the foot and stays cool. Also works as a shower shoe.

These are comfortable, but need an insert as the bottom is a bit hard. Time will tell if it's good in summer as it's only 18 degrees here now. Fit is as expected...lots of room in the toe area. I have a high instep and had no problem slipping them on.

I purchased these shoes for my trip to Playa Del Carmen, Mexico. I knew I needed a shoe for the beach, walking, and dancing and for the most part, they rocked! They're super cute on, almost a perfect fit just a little snug around my right pinky toe. Now my only gripe, which was pretty major for me is the sand gets caught in the shoe...wet sand = 10lbs of extra weight that I caught myself lugging around. I finally emptied out the sand and decided that it was best to wear them off the beach. These were my go to shoes, wore the heck out of them for 7 days.

These are great shoes. I wear them with long pants and people think I'm wearing regular 'Chucks'. They have better support and more cushion, though. I wear them in town but especially on the water. They are cool and extremely comfortable. I'm ordering a pair of the boat shoes next. highly recommend these great shoes! I would order a size smaller than you usually wear. I normally wear a 10 and it was too big even with socks. Returned it and got a 9 about a day later. Great service.

I own 4 pair of Native shoes. Which is to say, I love them. They are so light, comfortable and perfect to do almost anything in. Their one limitation, I think, is what many people buy them for: the beach. They are filled with holes, so if you are going near sand, loose dirt or debris, this is not the shoe. I like them best as an every day city shoe. They're easily washable, and they do stretch to fit your foot (the Jefferson is, at first, fairly narrow). I walk miles a day in Native shoes (in the city) and find that they do hold up well. They're foam, but seem durable. Also, although this company (which is determined to market these as hipster shoes) would be horrified: these shoes 100% solved my plantar fasciitis pain. Of course, people say Crocs do that, too, but I'd suffer for the rest of my life than wear Crocs. This is an inexpensive, and far more aesthetically pleasing, alternative.

Very comfortable, waterproof, easy on/off and they don't look like Crocs! I love these shoes. This is my second pair. I wore out the originals over about 2 years.

I love these shoes! I fell in love with them after seeing an entire family wearing them in an airport somewhere - Mom, Dad and three kids all with different colors! I usually wear an 8.5 to a 9 and I ordered these in Mens 6/Ladies 8 and they fit perfectly. When I took them out of the box I thought "no way are these going to fit" - they looked too small, but they're not and they make my feet look smaller! I don't feel like they are narrow as others have said. Maybe my feet are narrow, but if so I've never needed narrow shoes before. My only concern with them is that my feet sweat quite a bit and these certainly have nothing to wick away any moisture, but an insert could solve that. Very, very adorable! Hope they come out with more colors for adults.

I own several Natives & I highly recommend them as a good sailing shoe. Good sole grip & the material does not hold smells (from salt water)- make them ideal for kayaking, canoeing & for beach days, too. While I often wear them all day on-the-water, I think their lack of arch support & sweat-factor make them not ideal for a long day of walking in the big city.

I bought these shoes for my husband so he could have a pair of shoes that he could wear anywhere and still look stylish. He loves these and says they are so comfortable. They are so easy to clean too.

Purchased this shoe less than a month ago and the soles are already worn in two places. I haven't even paid the credit card bill yet and the shoes are worn out. I would not recommend this product.

The kids LOVE these! These are hard to find - Thank you Zappos! These are great for boys and girls and they even look cute with shorts, jeans. If you find your size - order them.

I'm a size 11 in every shoe but a 10 in these. I got the black Jeffersons which look good with or without socks, I wore without socks and walked/danced about 12 miles (Fitbit) in 100 degree heat and only had one small blister on a big toe but I have kind of wide big toes and the blister was better in a day so can't really fault the shoe. I got these things wet and sandy and all things and they wash up fine and don't smell bad. Noticed the crease thing after a couple wears but I like sneakers to look broken in and not brand new so that didn't bother me. Great pair for music festival/pool party weekend and also quick slip ons for errands.

These are really nice shoes. I got one 2 years ago. I tried to fit in because it's size 7m. Really agonizing of the comfortability of that size. My right size is 8m. Now I found it here...feel so good again. Thank you Zappos.

I've had multiple pairs of these and love them. They feel about a half size larger than listed, especially once they are broken in and relax. They are very comfortable & look great. I get plenty of compliments on them. The only problem is the durability. For around town or a casual shoe they are fine, I bought these for work around water and with walking all day 5-6 days a week they last me 3-4 months before the soles wear thin and they have to be replaced. Still prefer these to sandals but a real rubber sole with this EVA upper would make this 5 stars.

Unfortunately the shoe delivered was not as pictured. Also, as I am a 10 1/2, I had to make the decision to go up or down to the next whole size. Based upon other reviews I went up to the next whole size instead of down, which was a mistake. Usually have great success with Zappos. Just not this time.

I usually wear an 8½ and bought a size 8 since I read recommendations to buy half a size down. The size 8 was too snug so I returned them and bought a size 9. The size 9 was too big and fit more like a size 10. The two sizes must be from different production runs. The size 8 had a Native label glued to the heel. The size 9 had Native molded into the heel. Native needs to get their sizing straight.

Nice, but minor flaws on the bottom of the shoe. They are black and beige, not black and white.

Love these shoes! More style than a sneaker or a Croc. Perfect for jeans, shorts and casual comfort. Feel true to size both in width and length...and you don't have to be a teenager to have them look good on you!

Love these shoes. Just noticed though that the rubber on the sides of the sole is beginning to peel. :(

Great design, attractive, very comfortable, fits true to size and not at all narrow. Feet do sweat some in the hot weather but I plan on wearing for the rain so should be okay.

Great shoes. Real light & good looking. Only bad is they do run half a size larger like others have said.

If you are a half size, order Jeffersons in a half size down from your regular size. And yes, they are a bit narrow, but not terribly so. Order almost all other Natives one half size larger. And those will be a bit roomier in the width. Took lots of exchanging to figure this out. And don't dry them in a dryer for a few minutes after washing them off. They shrink! Natives are great shoes.

I bought these shoes for my husband as a water shoe for a trip...he hasn't taken them off yet! Very comfortable and a great look!

These are great knockabout shoes. I take them on the boat diving and wear them around the house. Yeah, you do have to watch out for the stripe wearing off but it does add character. Have several pairs and they are so comfortable and easy to clean. Just soap and water and you are good to go again! They really are soft and breath much better than I would ever have thought.

I love these shoes! Got a lot of complements for them. Initially they were hard on my feet but, as soon as you break them in you will love them! I have had mine for over one year and a half now and the white paint for the sole is peeling off. I'm definitely going to buy another pair for summer.
