Customer Reviews Naturalizer Riviera

These are the best shoes of my life. That likely seems hyperbolic but if you knew the extent of my foot problems and that at age 48 I have finally found really cute shoes that don't kill my feet you would understand!

I love how sexy and comfortable these are. These are cute enough to wear with a dress, shorts or pants.

I love these wedge sandals. Comfortable out of the box and no break in period. I got the black color and will go back for another

Size 7 fit me perfectly, the base is a spongy white, shoes are more a yellow tint beige, they are very comfortable & good heel height for casual wear

I was concerned the style would be too matronly would I put them on my feet. I received them and put them in to west out in a Houston visit to Van Gough and dinner at Relish. There was no breaking in period. I fell in love with them immediately. For reference I bought the 7.5M and it’s true to size. I will be buying in other colors.

I like to dress for the occasion and I start with my foundation. I wanted something in the beige/tan color, smart casual and stylish with comfort for standing all evening. I have changes in my feet related to rheumatoid arthritis as well. I think the ankle strap is secured, stylish and is the pivotal point in the shoes. The wedge gives stability and the straps across the top are really comfortable. I'm not dreading the evening as I love the shoes I'll be wearing. Afraid the medium was too narrow, I ordered the wide. I will attach those photos. My sister could wear the wide and I order the medium. The FIT is definitely true to size.

I wanted these to work for my feet and they did so well I bought the second pair instantly. Finding a cute sandal that wears well for work and weekends in a wide width has been challenging. I have a bad ankle and daily swelling it’s really nice at the end of the day to not have the puffy foot swell over the strap. The cushioned footbed is like walking on pillows. The wide straps are secure so my feet are not slipping in the shoe. I was hesitant about the width but I am so happy with my purchases. I will be purchasing this brand again.

Butter-soft leather, the retro look (think 1940s glamour) I love, and dreamy comfort. I will love wearing these!

These are cuter in person! Casual enough to wear with shorts but they work with a dress for dinner out as well. The wedge is low profile and the platform makes it just as comfortable as flat sandals. My only caveat is to beware of the straps if you have wide ankles. I don't, and still found this to be a slightly snug fit but since these are real leather, I believe they'll stretch with wear.

I’ve been suffering from swollen ankles and feet and couldn’t find a comfortable shoe to wear that I could dress up or down. However this shoe was perfect. And the fit was true to size as well. Did I mention that I didn’t have to break these shoes in. Just slipped them on and they supported me all day and night. I will be buying more in different colors

LOVE these shoes! So comfy & cute!!!

Fit and comfort of the sole are exceptional. The leather is real and so soft I love the way it feels against. My only problem is they gave me blisters in the corner where my pinky toe and big toe rub against the leather. You can wear them all day but need band aids.

There are not many options for dressy black sandals to wear to work so I was happy to find these. The shoe is comfortable but there is not much arch support so they cannot be worn on days with extended walking.

Beautiful shoe! Soft leather, comfortable foot bed with some arch support, classy style. My problem is the thick ankle strap. I love the look of it, but it's too tight around my ankles. If you loosen it too much the velcro from the top strap rubs against your leg and is very uncomfortable. If you have small ankles go for it!!

This shoe has a very awkward strap that is too wide and goes directly over your ankle bone. Ummm.. the walking motion does require movement of the ankle - hello?? I love the look of an ankle strap, but it has to be functional!

Too big, too wide, too loose. Felt big and clunky. Not attractive.

Cute shoe but zero arch support. I thought there might be a way to add some support but no. Bummer. As for the ankle strap, it works fine for me. Others mention that it hits the ankle bone but I didn't find that to be a problem.

Holy squeaking shoes, batman. I read the reviews that talked about how squeaky these shoes are, but I was in love with the style so I decided to try them anyway. The footbed is dreamy. The style is adorbs. The part over my toes felt like it would create a blister if I wore them for too long. But the main reason I'm returning them is the squeaking noise blasting from both shoes every time I walk. My husband complained that he couldn't hear the TV, and ladies and gentlemen, he was watching F1. There's not much louder than racecars zooming around a track. Not much... except the Naturalizer Riviera. I bought these shoes hoping to wear them to a wedding, but I'm pretty sure their incessant squeaking would have ruined the wedding.

These are adorable shoes, but the footbed and heel were too wide. Very comfortable and stylish, though. I ordered wide and they were that. Figured the medium width would be too tight on my ankle, so returned instead of exchanged.

I was super excited for these. Returning them. POSITIVES: Shoes are a true wide width. Cute casual style. Comfortable heel height. NEGATIVES: Run really long, I am a standard size 9, easily could size down to an 8. Velcro fit ok around my average ankle but if your ankle is slightly thick you may have issues with the Velcro closing. Footbed is a strange mesh material, it may help with breathability but I think it cheapens the look of the shoes. Pinky Toe Pop! - if these are slightly long on you beware your pinky toes will probably pop out the strap hole! OVERALL: Cute style, with right fit would be comfortable and light weight, however, given the issues they are going back.

Wanted to like these after reading reviews, but somehow they made my feet look matronly.

Made for wider feet.
