Customer Reviews Naot Kata

The shoes have multiple unusual or interesting features about them. Actually, when the light hits them a certain way, the front black material has a very subtle rainbow color to it that reflects. I wouldn't say these are high fashion but they are really great for interesting and functional shoes when standing on your feet all day in a hospital setting. Very supportive shoes with a splash of some fashion. ;-)

I wanted to love these shoes, but they just didn't fit right on my feet. I have never had an issue fitting into "M" width shoes, but the leather surrounding my forefoot squeezed uncomfortably at the edges. The style is incredible (I'm always looking for a stylish take on the Mary Jane!), and they felt comfortable otherwise (footbed, arch support, etc.). But had to send them back.

Loved these so much I bought 2 colors. I'd probably need to go up a size to wear with even light socks but they're great with no socks or a very thin trouser sock.

I have bought both colors in these shoes in my usual Naot size, and they fit, perhaps a bit looser/wider than some other Korus. The tie helps adjust the shoe so it's comfortable. Great arch support, as usual. Love the textured leather in both colors. But something about them just seems a bit too massive . . .too sturdy-looking. I'm returning both colors to think more about them. I like them, but I don't love them. Just not sure about the style -- too much leather/coverage in the heel area, I think. Need more cutout/air space, I think. I always buy 41 in Naot and wear a 9.5 shoe, so size up if you're on the border.

The fit was weird, I liked that the toe box was big but the shoe came in really narrow underfoot. I don’t have wide feet.. The shoe didn’t sit straight under my foot so the ball of my foot felt the hard outside of the shoe pressing up. Comfortable when I first put them on and then instantly I felt that hard outer bottom sole and decided to return them. Cute style but just not worth that much money. The quality really makes them seem like they should be no more than $60.

I bought these shoes for work for the summer. Super cute with dress or pants. I am not a fan of tying and untying shoe laces every time and these shoe laces do not stay tied, so I have to do an extra knot which means putting more time in the untying. The description says, "Leather and textile lining for breathability." The texture lining is not breathable. My feet get hot and sweaty -- very uncomfortable.

I wanted to love these shoes, because they are VERY comfy. Sad to report they have an old lady orthopedic look in person. This is coming from an old lady. Consider yourself warned.

I had very high expectations for these be e they're adorable - but the stiff part of the back heel rises up to that impossible spot on the ankle & most definitely will cause constant friction rubbing that can't be mitigated by anything but thick hiking socks. Moleskin and various other padding won't be effective. The leather is thick, too, so just the thought of trying to break them in makes me cringe in pain. Sadly, I must return them.

The back of the shoe is tall, firm, and scratchy and rubs on my upper achilles, so I have to return them. They are longer in length than a true size 5; the heel feels as low as the toe bed, giving little heel height. Great look.... if you can fit in to them.

These shoes did not work for me, though I love Naot. But they came in a bag--not in a box. They had been obviously worn and one lace was broken almost all the way through. Very unusual from Zappos. But I'll return them and hope they don't show up at someone else's house. And shame on the person who returned them in this condition and Zappos for not thoroughly checking them out before they sent them to me.

After ordering and trying on about 15 pairs of shoes over the last month these came out as the winner! Naot's are great for travel where a lot of walking is required. I have high arches and these provide a good amount of support. My feet were slightly tired after walking all day, so not quite as much as support as say, Vionic, but I still chose Naot over Vionic for our most recent trip because Naot has better styles for casual all-day walking that can be worn with shorts, pants or dresses. I wanted something that was also close toed. I ordered two colors in the same size, and the black ones felt significantly tighter than the taupe ones, so either the sizing is off or the taupe ones got stretched out over time by being tried on? Either way, these were perfect perfect perfect.

I own 2 colors, stone and black. I am 7.5 and purchased 38, excellent fit. Needed a bit of stretching because of minor bunion issue but they were so comfy like walking on clouds. I have the stone color for years now, my go to in spring summer when I don’t feel like showing those toes and need something comfy and stylish to go with jeans, dress them up..black..or down ..stone, absolutely amazing I get compliments or looks . I am surprised not everyone knows this brand . A bit pricey sure but worth every penny.

These shoes are so comfortable and stylish! I feel like I'm walking in slippers with them. Naot is my new favorite brand of shoes!

Loved the design and style!!! Ordered the beige. Loved the materials and workmanship. I wish Naot's would come in 1/2 sizes. The 9 was to short and the 10 was too long, so, sadly, both were sent back.

Comfortable and cute shoe but not a $200 shoe.

I was pleasantly surprised with the ankle strap/ankle support. Cute!

I love Naot shoes! That suede interior is SO comfortable. I can't speak to this pair (yet) but my others have lasted so well. The ghillie detail on the ankle is subtle but beautiful. The toe box is more structured (so it won't collapse and look slovenly), yet comfortable. I got these in the Beige Lizard since i wanted something neutral for the summer. so few "sandals" allow you to replace the insole, but these do. I would not advise anything lower, because then you likely need the mild arch support these provide (not to mention the suede is fabulous), but for long all-day walking while traveling I may switch them for more supportive insoles. If you are hesitant to get these, don't be (unless you fear is becoming a Noat convert, which is a true risk).

I loved this shoe but unfortunately, it was a little too short and Khaki Beige was not available in the next size up. Very sad that I had to return because the style is really cute! I ordered the shoe in black directly from Naot but it wasn't as cute and the fit was not good so I had to send them back.

I loved the look and style of this shoe but my big toe touched the tip of the shoe so I know it will be uncomfortable for travel. I have a narrow foot and the width was perfect! Wish I could have kept them. Looks like Naot has discontinued this shoe which is a shame.

Did not fit as width is too wide for me. I have narrow feet, so it is probably medium

i love these shoes but today i noticed the laces are frayed where is i tie a knot. I have these shoes in 3 different colors and I hope this doesn't continue to happen. Can Naot mail me another set of laces please?

My regular 8M size fit perfectly. I bought these in 2018 in navy and now wanted them in black. I was surprised they were still available. Thanks Naot! Perfect travel shoe. Comfortable for walking during the day and cute for casual outing in the evening. VERY comfortable!!! Great design. More colors please.

Stunningly gorgeous shoes! Fit like a glove and are exceedingly comfortable. So happy I discovered these wonderful shoes!

Bought these in my usual size 38 (womens 7), but returned, as they run large compared to my other 3 pairs of Naot shoes. Once I got the right size, I absolutely love them! The Naot comfort is there, as well as a super-cute style for summer. And of course, Zappos customer service is unbeatable.
