Customer Reviews Native Shoes Audrey

Chincy

I've never written a review before because I've always been very happy with my purchases, but this time I had too. The Native Audrey red shoes were wonderful (fit, comfort) and I would have kept them but I'm afraid my feet would have sweat too much. For the Native Audrey black pair I had asked for a size 7 and got a size 6, so the fit wouldn't have worked. However, the worst part was that they looked like they had been worn by the previous owner for some time, as there was foot debris in the crevices of the inside sole, and the heel was worn down a bit. I really wanted to see if they would work so I ordered two more Native Audrey black pair in the correct size (in case getting the 6 as a 7 was a fluke and it was) and received two pair of perfectly clean, new size 7s. However, I was so disgusted I couldn't keep them. I'm giving a 3 star because the red were 5 star and the black were 1 star because they were worn and gross. I did keep the Malley Burgundy and Tan shoes, they were wonderful and very comfortable. I will keep shopping at Zappos and not let this stop me but I will inspect everything very closely going forward.

Super cute style. But after wearing them all day for the first time, I had blisters in 3 different places. I had to kick them off and drive home barefoot because my feet hurt so bad.

I bought these shoes as I am vegan/raw and dont use animal products. I felt the style was timeless and classic, they look great. The first 30 minutes was fine. Walking with these shoes at any length is pretty painful then shortly after I notice my foot was sweating as assume because they are made from a form of plastic. It was a cool day. I orginally bought these for an upcoming all day event and there is no way I can where them without causing me much pain.... The style looks very nice but comfort and feet sweating are a turnoff.

Weird... Don't really know how to feel about them as flats? Its a nice pointed shoe but maybe because I got it in white it was almost a blinding white. They do feel comfy and work well as an in-office shoe, which is what I intended it for. But unfortunately I think they run slightly small? I fit most medium/normal width styled shoes but because the cut and the style of the flat, every time I walk with each step it would dig into the top of my foot at the flat fold and it just wasn't practical at that point. If I went up a size I think it would be too loose. Oh well, returning.

Cute, though they seem flimsy. They were too tight around the toe area and I had to return them.

I am an adult that can fit children's shoes, particularly sandals. My foot is just small enough to fit a girls 2 in sandals and a women's 4 and 5 in most closed toed shoes, depending on the brand. I bought these in a size 5. Because my feet are fully grown they tend to be wider and fuller than a child's so I thought I'd have no problem with the fit of this shoe, but they were too long and too narrow. There were also parts of the felt material that were already wearing off so that was a bad sign for me that they wouldn't last. It's a shame, the style and look of the shoe from far away are really beautiful.

The style of the Audrey is great. I ordered them in black and they looked dressed up - you couldn’t even tell they were plastic. I wear a 7.5 in flats so I tried 7s and 8s. The 8s were falling off my feet. The 7s fit but were too narrow in the toes. I don’t have a wide foot, but my pinky toes felt like they were being squished. I really wanted these to work since they look great on. I hope Native Shoes decides to make half sizes soon!

Pretty shoe, nice cushion but to narrow for my feet and cut into it. :(

I returned these. The black ones looked professional but these just did not fit me very well and were uncomfortable. I could tell they were going to rub really bad and create blisters. I was sad I had to return these, I was really hoping they would work because I love the style.

I love the idea behind these shoes: lightweight, easy to care for, sophisticated style with practicality, but the quality isn't there. These are 'flocked velvet' which means (I believe) that the shoe gets sprayed with lots of mini-fibers to resemble velvet. No real velvet. Around the edges and soles of the shoes I received there were already patches of worn off flocking. I can't imagine how they'll look after actually wearing them. For $55 I can't bring myself to keep these. They probably cost <$10 to make and it kinda shows... As for the sizing, they do run long and I liked the space in the toe box area. There's room there with the pointed toe. The color is truly a beet fuchsia, purple-dark pink. I loved it. So wished they had worked out...

I was prepared to love these after the amazing reviews and after trying them on initially--they are light and super cute. Bonus that you can wear them in the rain or mud and then hose them off! However, after several days wearing them, they started giving me awful blisters on the outside of my pinky toe and on my heel. I have pretty tough feet, so I was surprised that not more reviews brought this up. Maybe if I sized up a half size this would'n't have been so bad, but I also feel like they might have been falling off my feet if that were the case.

i needed a shoe to wear in wet areas and thought this classy shhoe would work, however the size 8 was like a 9, too big. Too bad no half sizes are produced.

Be specific about your likes and dislikes. How was the fit and size? What does the material feel like? How awesome (or not) do you feel wearing them?

They felt big. Very taugh rubber, i preffer crocs. These were returned

These are very lightweight so that was nice but my foot just felt smashed in them. Suggest to buy at least a half size bigger. Also made my feet super sweaty.

It’s a plastic mold. Like a cheap sandal you’d get at a discount mart.

Felt like plastic and I can only imagine what it will feel like as the weather warms up. Not for me.

These are thick plastic & they look like it.

The material is very hard...i have seen some comparisons with Crics...the material in these shoes is much harder. The heal is not properly supported. I read the feedback and i got a 5...although i wear a 5.5 to 6...but in crocs i wear a 5...however the toes get squashed because of the very pointy toe. Didn't like them...totally not worth the price. So i have returned them
