Customer Reviews El Naturalista Wakataua N412

This is a really cute shoe/sandal. It runs short. I wear a 9.5 and the 40 didn't fit. It felt good as far as my arch was concerned, but my toes were scraping the inside of the shoe. No size 41 available, so I am returning them.

It really pained me to return these. Loved the style. Plenty of room for my big toes but smaller toes hit the front because of the angle of the toe box. A larger size would've been too large. Not a cushy sole, more of a hard Birkenstock cork feel.

I think this is going to be a great sandal. The leather is super soft and the sole is very comfortable. The arch support isn't fantastic, but it is enough to do. I will be able to wear it Spring through Fall. I am having to swap the size though. I should have listened to the other reviews and ordered my usual European size, not what is listed in the size list. I wear an USA 8 or 39 European size, but the size list has 38 (8). A size 8 can't wear these European 38. I am exchanging for 39.

I would say that I'm a true size 8 and the 38 fits just a touch on the tight side. However, I have other El Naturalista shoes that were tight and broke in perfectly. I do worry about these because the top of the shoe is stiff and sort of digs into the top of my foot. I'm afraid that any length of walking will create some serious blisters. I'm not sure if I'm keeping these or not.

I need walking shoes because I'm going to Italy in Oct. These were recommended to me by a friend. I'm wearing them around the house to see if I'll be able to walk all day in them. I really love the look of them. My feet are really sensitive so because its hard leather on the top I may have to send them back.

Overall, I was quite satisfied with the style and fit of this shoe. The photographs don't show the color/texture of the leather well. The color is almost a worn or "dusty" color rather than polished; so they are more casual looking than expected. The length was a bit short in the toes, but not enough to return for a larger size. I am generally a 9 1/2, but purchased a size 10. European sizing is often a "crap shoot" when it comes to fit. This brand tends to be a little heavy in the sole, but I found this particular style was not so much.

Soft & comfortable. Great for walking. Would love to find this in a slightly higher heels. I bought these in two colors.

I have bunions, so the wide toe box is perfect for me. Arch support is great. I originally ordered the turquoise to coordinate with a specific dress, but the color did not work. I loved the feel of the shoe, though, so I have returned the turquoise and ordered them in a more neutral brown.

These shoes are amazing! Fit is perfect, so comfortable.

Zappos, please. European size 37 is NOT US size 7! It is size 6.5! Size 7 is European size 37, NOT 38! This is the second time you got me even though I know better!

Love them! Have gotten many compliments!

have another pr. of this same shoe which I purchased 2yrs. ago. find this shoe very comfortable. it stretches a bit over time and conforms tou your fit. this shoes makes a nice appearance, always looks neat and tidy. it dresses up or down so it's a practical addition to your wardrobe. it goes without saying that zappos is a grt. source of footwear.delivery time is absolutely wonderful and all employees are very helpful. kind and have a good sense of humor and seem very happy at their work.

I ordered the Stella ND54 but when it arrived, the toe box wasn't tall enough to fit the top of my foot, causing paint. I wear a 9.5 and ordered the 41. I took a chance by ordering these in the same size worrying they'd also be too small. These are wider and roomer in toe length. No rubbing whatsoever! Very cute. I have the wood color but truly want more. They are very comfortable and perfect for three season weather.

I think these shoes are soooooo cute! They are now my favorite shoes! I am even planning to order some in a different color! I’m 35, and even my 18 yr old niece said she loved them, & would love to have a pair for herself! Would recommend to everyone questioning whether they should get a pair, or if they are worth the money! And if they were asking me I would tell them YES, & YES!!! Get them! And if you are anything like me, I have no doubt in saying that you will love them too!!!

This is my second pair of this style sandal and I love it! I originally bought my first one about 5 years ago and it’s still in great condition. There was no break in period which was always my issue with other shoes. It’s so comfortable to wear all day. I love that I can wear it with anything. If you don’t have a pair of these sandals yet, it’s worth buying.

These were comfortable from the moment I put them on, no breaking in needed, and I feel like I could walk a long way in them. I have very high arches, wide toes and wear orthotics in my running shoes, but these felt fine and my toes had plenty of room. I wear a 9.5 and ordered the 41 per another reviewer's comments, and that was the perfect size.

Based on other reviews, I ordered up a size and think they're too large. I usually wear a 38 and went up to a 39. I'm going return for smaller size if available. I have other El Naturalista clogs that I love. Have had them about 5-6 years and they have held up great! For the person asking about the heel height on this shoe, I would consider it a flat - maybe 1/2" heel. Also, I have a very high arch, so there was little support for my foot. I think it would be moderate for those with a typical arch.

Great shoes! Comfy and fashionable. I've gotten tons of complements. Only thing is I wish they didn't use Velcro because it doesn't hold well after a while

OMG!! I just received these shoes in a size 42. I normally wear an 11M. These fit perfectly. European sizes are so unreliable that I was very nervous about ordering a 42. I often times have to go up to a 43 to get enough length. I have such complex issues with my feet that it is often impossible to find a shoe that I can wear when I go out for an evening or to church. I am confident that these shoes are going to serve me very well They are a little bit more casual than expected but still wonderful.

Super cute casual Mary Janes. Looks great with my boho dresses

Couldn't decide between this shoe and the Zumaia NF41 so I ordered both in black. They are both really cute and although this is relatively comfortable it has a slightly narrower toe box and maybe a little less arch support. It should be fine for someone without foot problems but I prefer the Zumaia.

I love the look of this shoe. It is simple and sleek. The Wood 2 is a neutral shade that works with a variety of colors. It would look nice with skirts, pants, jeans, anything. The toebox is a bit wide. My foot measures medium, but needs a slightly wider toebox. The footbed is firm and there is very little support. Since I have a high arch and like a soft footbed, I'm returning these, but encourage you to try them if those factors don't concern you.

If you're like me & like your toes covered, you'll love these. Comfortable, with just a bit of heels. It attracted compliments.

Nice casual shoe. Insole material Keeps feet fresh during summer. The Velcro steam makes them easy to wear. The leather is hard and might hurt the first time the shoe is used. Good for an office with a code for close toe shoes

I love El Naturalista's shoes. They have a clean and elegant look. Very comfortable, you can wear them all day long. The size runs a bit bigger so I had to get a size smaller. Zappos makes it so easy to return and exchange that it wasn't a problem at all to send back the bigger ones and get a right size.
