Great except for flimsy leather -
These shoes are very comfortable. But after walking outside in them for the first time, I noticed a small rip in the leather on the front. It's not a scuff; it's an actual rip where the top layer of leather lifted off the shoe. My walk was on city streets, no gravel or anything obvious to damage the shoe. I haven't worn them since and I'm still debating about whether to return them. They're wonderful shoes, and very cute-looking, but I'm worried that after a short time, they'll look old and ratty. If not for this, I would have given them a five-star for everything.

Leather too soft and thin -
The Naot shoes and boots are comfortable. I have found that all of the four pair I own the leather is too soft and thin, just driving the car and using the pedals causes scratches and tears.

Wrong shoes were sent to me. I ordered the Naot Sea Soft Ink Leather/Navy but got the Noat Kerie which was not only wrong shoe but priced at $5.00 less than the Naot Sea. I wanted to take the shoes on a trip but cannot do so not enough time to get the right shoe.

I bought a black pair from amazon.com because you didn't have the black pair. I wore them for a day and my feet start hurting really bad. I have an old pair of a different style Naot shoes that I bought from "Walking Shoes" in Anchorage, and those lasted me almost 4-5 years and they're comfortable. But the same pair of shoes I bought as above hurt my feet so bad at the end of the day that I've decided I better sent these back. I have not worn these but they are the exact pair as my black ones so I would like to send these back. Thank you.

The fit was fine, but the style looked very clunky on my foot, plus the edge of the velcro on the strap scratched my foot.

I absolutely love these shoes. But after wearing them for one week, the bottom half of the velcro strap, the part that is attached to the shoe, has begun coming off the shoes. The stitching has broken. Just a heads up. I need these shoes and Zappos is out. So, for $199.99 I might have to take them to a shoe repair person after a week.

I loved the look of this shoe. However, it does run about 1/2 size too small. What I really didn't like, though, was the ankle area. The back of the shoe came all the way up my achilles heel, and slid up and down both with socks and without. I bought these based on raving reviews for an upcoming trip, but I could never wear them even in day to day. I'm so sad! Back they go.

The strap on the shoe caused blisters. Otherwise the shoe was comfortable but blisters after wearing inside for less than 30 minutes is enough to return them.

I have owned three pairs of these shoes. The first pair (not purchased through Zappos) were excellent and lasted for years. The second pair--purchased through Zappos--lasted only a year at which point the leather holding the metal eye came lose on the left shoe. Zappos kindly sent a replacement but the same thing happened again in the same place on the left shoe again in less than a year. I am very disappointed with this decline in workmanship-- especially for the price of these shoes.

I recommend NOT getting these shoes. I ordered them saying yes I will spend almost 200. dollars for something that will make my feet feel great. The shoes came and they were kind of cute. Looked like shoes a 5 year old would wear with white leotards. Not worth the price. Made well but not 185. dollars well. The ankles are way too big, even if your toes touch the end of the front of the shoe. I think part of the issue is that the strap going across the top is not enough tightness to make it snug plus it is just super wide on the heel. I got another pair of Naot shoes called Primrose. Same issue sorry to say.

I was really hoping to love these shoes, and I did as long as I wore then inside. But the first time I wore then outside, blisters galore, both on my toes and from the scratchy straps! Had I not worn them outside already, they'd be back in the box for a return trip

While these shoes are comfortable, I have to give them a two star rating. I have had them for two years. Shortly after purchasing them and after I had worn them several times, they developed a very loud and annoying squeak. (It's so loud that you can even hear it in a busy parking lot...) I feel like a clown when I walk. Additionally, they are very easy to scuff. I have another pair of Naot shoes that I love, so I was very disappointed with these. I reached out to Naot, but they didn't respond to my inquiry about what to do. I write after two years because I recently pulled them out of my closet for another try, but the squeak is just too loud. At the price, I expected more from Naot.

Very stiff leather, which surprised me. Naot makes a lot of soft-leather shoes, and I was expecting that with this shoe. Not a very stylish-looking shoe. Thick soles, which I need.

I have a narrow foot and this was too wide. I don't think it had much arch support. I love Zappos thanks for the quick delivery!

I loved the shoe but the first time i wore them I scuffed the toe slightly and the finish came off. Seemed very lightly applied on the surface and not durable. Am now looking for a Purple/peacock polish to try to fix. I would buy this style again but not this finish

Squeaky gremlins - don't get them wet!
I accidentally wore these in the rain once and ever since they squeak so loudly I'm embarrassed to wear them indoors. I took them to a repair place where they glued the insoles down but it didn't help. They also scuffed faster and worse than any shoes I've ever had, although it's finally starting to look natural. They are beautiful and comfortable but the design is flawed.

Disappointing Sole issues -
I have had 2 pairs of this shoe have issues with the left sole which then causes annoying clicking sounds when I walk. The 1st pair lasted only 6 weeks when the clicking sound started, and the 2nd pair lasted about 6 months. I'm not sure if there is a design problem with the shoe, or if I was just "lucky" enough to get 2 defective pairs. For the price of the shoe, though, they should have lasted me a lot longer than 6 months. I love the look of the shoe & they were probably the most comfortable shoe I've put on in a long time--but I won't wear them now that they click all the time.

These shoes were completely unwearable. The strap cut into the top of my foot with each step. If I loosened the strap it didn\'t cut as much, but then my heel slipped out.

I hate these shoes!! I've had them since December 2008. They were comfortable the first hour or so of wearing them, but after that my feet just hurt. I almost sent them back, but dummy me I thought they would get better. They didn't and now both the right and left shoe have developed a squeak. (A LOUD SQUEAK)! They drive me insane, but since I spent an insane amount of money on them, (I've been trying to buy shoes that last) I am really stuck with wearing them. I am a very hard fit. I have very narrow feet with long high arches. These shoes, from the description, seemed perfect. Too bad. I am so unhappy with these shoes, so, so unhappy. If I wanted my feet to continue hurting I could have just gone to my local shoe store and spent much much less. I should have stuck with EARTH shoes. These shoes were the worst financial decision I've made in a long time. Regret, regret, regret!!!!!!!!
