Customer Reviews Patagonia Naked Maui

The most casual shoe I own. The most comfortable shoe I own.

Love how light this shoe is. This is my second pair. I do think they lack in arch support so I add my cushy and supportive insoles form the Walking Company and my feet are happy all day. My first pair (blue) got a little stinky after wearing them without socks all summer. They wash up fine but faded up a bit and look a little worn, so I kind of view this as a one season shoe, but they are so comfortable and I love the way they look with shorts or jeans that I have no problem buying a new pair (or two in different colors!) every year!

Love the shoes (second pair of Patagonias) but I am glad I read the prior reviews. Actually, I did not think these could be a full size too large (the Patagonia Maui Airs fit fine at a 9 1/2) so I just ordered them a half size smaller in a 9. I then returned them for an 8 1/2 and they fit perfect. I must say that Zappos has the best return policy and fastest delivery of any online vendor from whom I have ever purchased product. I actually received my store credit on a Monday, reordered the shoes, and they magically appeared at my doorstep on Tuesday when I came home from my office for lunch. Gotta love Zappos.

I bought these for my husband as a Christmas gift. The material is high quality, true to size and he says extremely comfortable. He says it's like wearing house slippers but they are dressy enough to wear on a casual Friday to the office but also great for cargo shorts or jeans. I would recommend purchasing to a friend.

Ordered another pair as these shoes are according to hubby, remarkably comfortable! He likes them, could not believe I got PATAGONIA at such a great price. Had to show receipt, which I choose not to do, however, he was so happy, he wanted another pair. Might add, shoe is true to size with socks, width, etc. without sport sock, size a 1/2 down. Grab them while you can.

Absolutely fabulous! I bought these for my husband and they look so much better in person than the photo. I got Navy, in his regular size, shoe fit perfectly, so I wouldn't recommend sizing up. He wore his with little socks in beige, looks nice with navy. Gorgeous shoe for price. Thanks Zappos.

These are comfortable and light. They do seem to run half a size larger than the other Mauis.

These shoes are so great...ordering another pair! They are lightweight, comfy, casual...wear them so much that another pair is needed while one is being washed!

Very lightweight and comfortable. I wear them everywhere, sometimes with socks, sometimes without. But they definitely run big. I typically wear a size 12, got an 11 1/2 and they were too big. Finally settled on an 11.

Some reviews said these fit true to size, others said to order one whole size smaller. I thought I would split the difference and got a pair that were a half size smaller than what I usually wear. If you are going to wear them with socks, I would suggest this option. If you are going to go without socks, then I would suggest going one whole size smaller than what you usually wear. Otherwise these shoes are the bees knees.

I've been looking for a great summer slip-on shoe. This is it! Unbelievably lightweight with a cool hemp mesh upper. Not sure if Patagonia intends to keep this shoe in their lineup, but they definitely should. I would buy it again!

Purchased the shoes for my husband for Father's Day. He chose them and we ordered them 1/2 size smaller as per the reviews. He says they're very comfortable and getting the 1/2 size smaller was a great idea.

Shoe fit a half-full size too small - I returned it painlessly but unfortunately there is no size greater than 14 made.

This is an amazingly light all day shoe. I use them as an alternative to boat shoes or flip flops and find them comfortable and durable. I like the look of a little wear and tear without it being over the top. I wear them with shorts, jeans and chinos. Love 'em!

I am a Patagonia Maui nut. I have these Naked Mauis and the Maui mocs and a pair of Maui Airs. Every morning I face the challenge of which pair to wear. I love them all. I frequently choose the Naked Maui because they are a bit sturdier feeling than the others making them very slightly better for street wear...although it's really a toss--up. Love them all. For wearing anytime, anywhere.

The Patagonia Naked Maui is one of those evolutionary shoes that comes along and becomes a new and integral part of your lifestyle. I purchased a pair last year in May 2010 with the notion that any Patagonia quality shoe, made of hemp and weighing in at a mere 8.0 ounces had to be comfortable, and they are still. I fail to see where those griping about wear are coming from? I am 6 ft. tall and weigh in at 175 lbs. and mine are still very comfortable and wearable. In fact my Naked Maui's seemed to become even more comfortable as time molded them around my feet. The soles do show some wear, but are by no means blown out, and the uppers are good to go for at least another year. I guess some people are destructive no matter what. I do work in an office in a large airport, which causes me to walk on a multitude of varying surfaces, especially concrete, asphalt, and even marble flooring. The Maui's did great on all and in the hottest summer recorded in Charleston, WV in 67 years. I felt fortunate to have them along with Zappos incredible service

Love these shoes; they look great and are very comfortable. They breathe well and are very light. They run large; I usually wear an 8 but had to return for a 7.5.

I bought these for my sons for Christmas. They loved them! So comfortable and fit them perfectly. I bought them a half size smaller than they normally wear and they were perfect. Very lightweight. Zappos was amazing with their service, as always!

Wearing band aids beneath elastic as a precaution. Shoe fits great toe and heel. Will wait to see how they age.

Love these shoes. Light, sharp-looking, and super-comfortable, with a great sole.

I love these shoes. I wear them all the time. I walk a lot at my job and am on my feet all day...and these shoes are perfect. They are super light and super comfortable and pretty damn cool. It's like you're not wearing shoes. I am always getting compliments on them. I can't wait to get another pair.

I love these shoes. They are comfortable and perfect for summer wear. The hemp fabric is thick and sturdy, but soft. These are more robust than Tom's or Sanuk's. Also, they aren't very "dressy"...more like a tennis shoe or boat shoe. They are well made (typical Patagonia quality).

Awesome looking shoe. Light and comfortable? Yes and yes. But I did find them to run slightly large (1/2 size). I ordered a Man's US 9.5 and I definitely needed a Man's size US 9.0. My heel easily slide out of the back of the shoe.

These shoes have worked out great. Lightweight and they keep my feet cool and dry. Plus Zappos added overnight delivery for free. They run in size with most of Patagonia's shoes. I wear a 11.5 and they fit true to size for me. Lots of cushion and the tread has held up well. I wouldn't say they were brown but more of a distressed army green. No much arch support but as you break in the shoes the foot bed is so thick that the shoe conforms with your foot. Very impressed with the quality of Patagonia and the service at Zappos.com.

I wrote a very favorable review for this shoe yesterday 5/24/2010 and apparently, you elected not to publish it. Its OK by me, you still don't have a review posted for a very fine shoe which is about as comfortable as they come. Patagonia has made a huge leap forward in design, innovation and sustainability of the shoe line in particular. Not to put anyone else down who makes a similar shoe as the Naked Maui in Hemp, but this is the gold standard that everyone else will seek. Its by far the best of a new generation in casual-comfort footwear for some time to come. Not a single stitch was dropped or out of place, the quality control is pristine,and Patagonia stands behind what they make, another win for the consumer. If one is looking for a reasonable priced quality made non leather comfort shoe, the Naked Maui is your new sweetheart.
