Such a cute and versatile shoe. Can be dressed up or down. Just which Naot would make shoes with wider foot beds. Not all girls are dainty little pixie's!

Very cute and comfy sandal. Once the back strap is adjusted, it is easy to put these on and off using just the wider, studded top strap. The black leather has a matte finish, but under the perforations on the top strap is a shiny metallic fabric that is hard to see in the photos. Gives this shoe a nice bit of bling! A real tough rocker girl style without the pain of a high heel!

Love the look... More trendy than I usually find in my kind of sandal and the heel is a real plus too. Today I wore them for the first time, walked around in the city for several hours, found them to be extremely comfy... Maybe I need an additional pair in another color?

Fantastic shoes! I'm still not sure they're worth the price tag, but they really are comfortable, stylish, and totally vacation appropriate!

Okay, here goes, my first Zappos review. So these sandals are just great. They have two straps that close with velcro, but they don't "read" as velcro (i.e. old lady). Rather, they are super easy to adjust to whatever width your foot happens to be. And they are very stylish (with a touch of the funky that I require) and at the same time they are comfortable. I just got them and haven't tested them out on the streets, but out of the box and walking around the house they are winners. If you can get them in your size, don't hesitate.

Very comfortable shoe to walk in for more than 12 hrs. Two problems, I have a narrow heel and need a tighter strap in the back and they ran short. Always wear 38 in Naot but this style should have gone up a size. Keeping anyway.

Love these shoes. They are super comfy. I like the velcro, it makes them easy to put on and take off. They can be dressy and very casual depending on the outfit. Perfect for every occasion. The best sandals I have purchased this season! I typically wear a 8 1/2 but with Naot shoes, I have been buying the 9 (40).

These are great! My foot is a size 9, medium to wide width. I purchased the biscuit color and it goes with everything. Very nice! These were a little tight over the top, but after I wet stretched the two skinny center straps they fit perfectly. I do wish the top velcro strap was a little longer so the velcro didn't show at all when I close it. I have a damaged ankle that doesn't flex well without pain, so I'm always having to buy flatter, more orthopedic type shoes. This shoe gives me a chance to feel like I can wear grown-up shoes, have some height and fashion, and even feel a little sexy. Yes, they are expensive, but after buying ortho type shoes like Dansko, this wasn't greatly extravagant after all - besides, my foot health is worth it. Heck, I'm worth it! I see these shoes lasting several years, so if I break the cost down over 3 or four 4 seasons, it doesn't seem quite as expensive.

These are really beautiful shoes with a lot of support. They have the appeal of a lot of height without stressing your feet due to the platform. I really really love them but had to return due to them running a bit small. I will order them again in one size up.

These shoes not only look fabulous to wear but are also the most comfortable Naot shoes I have ever bought. I was surprised that I could walk in them for hours! I do think they are made for a more narrow foot, but I am amazed at how comfortable they are and how fashionable they look. I would definitely buy this style shoe in other colors.

These are very walkable, cute platform sandals. They seem sturdy and well made, and I love the soft Naot cork footbed. For me, the 1½" rise makes the Relate slightly less comfortable for extended wear than my flatter Naot sandals. I had a small sore spot on my right (but not left) pinkie toe after wearing these new shoes on a two mile walk around my neighborhood, but that was probably a little too long to wear brand new shoes.

Love this shoe! It runs a touch small. I wear a 38 in Naot and I maybe should have returned for a 39, but I loved them so much I didn't want to have to wait for an exchange, so kept them. Wore them all day today, walking everywhere and I was very comfortable. Dress these up or down, I am going to order the other color now!

Very comfortable. I'm short (5'2) so I like a sandal to give me height, but I need it be super comfortable since I need to wear my shoes all day. I like the nude color, which blends into my skin, making my legs appear longer, and the studs and perforations--and the chunky platform--give the sandal a more modern feel.

I looked all last year for this color sandal, and was thrilled to see this great style in one of my favorite brands. It's super cute in person and wonderfully comfortable (as all my other Naots are).

Love the shoe except that the two narrow straps do not lay down against my foot. I ended up cutting off one of them because they looked funny just sticking up and not touching my foot. Other than that, the shoe is extremely comfortable and has wonderful support.

I loved the look and fit of this shoe except for the fact that the front straps were too narrow for my wide feet. Sadly I had to return.

Finally!! After playing mailtag with Zappos on 3 prior potential sandal heels from other manufacturers, success! Last year I had J-41's and they were to die for comfortable, but they didn't hold up well and looked pretty used quickly. (or maybe I was hard on them) In any case, it was time for a new Summer sandal. I like the way these look on the feet. I love the adjustable velcro straps. I wish the top leather straps were a little more forgiving, because I do not have a narrow foot at all, but I knew when I bought these that they are for narrow to medium widths. The footbed is very comfortable. Hoping the top straps will break in a bit. I'm keeping this pair. Very stylish with jeans or a summer dress!

I am so disappointed in this shoe based on my other experiences with Naot. I have three pairs of Naot mary janes and I adore their comfortable and supportive footbeds, but my feet are medium to narrow in width, so I struggle with sizing but after some trial and error I usually wind up with a good fit. I was therefore very excited to see that these sandals, which looked like the perfect summer shoes, are considered to run in a narrow to medium width. I tried these shoes first in a 37, then in a 38 (I am normally a size 6½ or 7), and I am baffled as to how these shoes could even remotely be considered as a narrower width. The 36 was a marginal fit width wise (I am used to having extra room in the width - that is the price I pay for having somewhat narrow feet in a world where most of the cute shoes run in a medium to wide width) but my pinky and big toes hung over the strangely shaped end of the shoes. The longest part of the toe box hits the middle of the foot, not the big and second toe area. Anyway, I was determined to find the right fit, so I went up to a 38. That was even worse. My toes still hung over the edge and my feet absolutely swam in the shoes! In both sizes, the stationary straps gaped around my feet. I wish more of the straps had been adjustable with Velcro. The other problem I had with these shoes was aesthetic: The toe strap hit in a most unflattering spot, behind the toe clefts, rather than over them, which would have created a better line and a more flattering look for the feet in addition to more stability. For me, these shoes turned out to be great in concept but poor in execution, so the search continues.

These are comfortable straight out of the box. I typically wear a 7W. The 38 was perfect. Even though it is not listed as wide, it fit my foot well. I wore them on a travel day with tons of walking in airports. No Problem!

These are really comfortable. The footbed is cushioned and has a great shape that really held my foot. I was surprised that the top strap is velcro along with the back--which really helps with the fit. I am returning because the color isn't quite right for what I need--but would definitely recommend.

I have a chronic issue with the ball of my foot (capsulitis) and my podiatrist recommends a rigid shoe with a 1-1&1/2 inch drop from heel to toe. Most of the shoes that fit that description are NOT attractive and have limited my professional wardrobe substantially. These are stylish and super-comfy right out of the box. After giving them a test-drive around the house I decided to take a chance and wear them to the airport the next day for cross-country travel. I ended up with a layover in Denver with multiple gate changes due to a delayed flight, and then out for a shopping with a friend after I landed. I ended up walking a lot more than expected and the shoes were perfectly comfortable the whole day. The velcro makes for lots of adjustability, though I would have preferred buckles so I took one star off for style points. The platform height makes these fun for casual clothing and works well with dress slacks previously hemmed to a length that needed stillettos, which I can no longer wear. I highly recommend these shoes and plan to get them in other colors.

This is my first pair of Naots. I was looking for something that I could walk around all day from brunch to dinner that was also a little dressy and not too casual. These are perfect. There are a couple of adjustable Velcro straps that help tailor to your needs. I have very skinny feet so finding sandals that do not flop around on me is hard to find. Although the fixed straps are still loose on my feet the adjustable ones help make up for it. The footbed feels so comfortable I cannot wait to try them for a 12 hour day that I bought them for. So far I have only worn them for a few hours and they have fit the bill so far.

This is a perfect sandal. Rubber sole, cork layer and leather foot bed makes for a incredibly soft and easy fit. With 2 Velcro adjustable straps (heel and arch) you can get the perfect fit. I have terrible feet and was able to wear them all day for first wearing. platform gives height but easy on the toes.
