I bought these shoes this summer in DC when the other sandals I was wearing became too painful and the bottom of my right foot was swollen. Putting them on my feet I felt immediate comfort and I have worn them daily ever since. I bought a size 42 when my foot is usually a 40. The foot bed of the 40 was way too narrow and that is why I had never bought a NOAT before - my toes always fell over the side of the shoe. The 42 fit well with swollen hot feet, but now that it is getting cooler, yes even here in Greece, my foot has gone back to normal size and is slipping around in the shoe. Still, I wouldn't trade them for anything only next time I will try try on a 41 as well. the swelling underneath my right foot has decreased and is now less painful. Perhaps I will be able to wear socks until I need covered shoes.

I wanted a comfortable sandal to walk all over Europe and I found it! My husband kept asking if I wanted to change into my tennies for all of the walking but actually the NAOT Rachel sandal was MORE comfortable and definitely COOLER than my tennies! The price is steep but not when you consider the comfort and the champagne leather sandals go with any color of your wardrobe! I am very thankful that Nordstrom suggested this shoe!

This is the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn in my life! I just bought a second pair because the first pair is years old and were getting too worn looking(but still super comfortable!) I was able to find a second pair on sale but really the higher price is worth it because you can waste a lot of $$ on cheaper sandals that end up being uncomfortable. These look stylish and not 'orthapedic'! Best of all there is a hole in the 'flower' design which allows my bunion/bone spur to pop out and not rub against the sandal, unlike other other sandal styles I've worn. I would wear these in every colour, on every day of the year if I could!!!

I love these Rachels sandals. I have the burnt copper leather pair and wear them ALL THE TIME. On the advice of a website, I bought one size larger than I would normally. I usually wear a 9 1/2 (sz 40) N to M, and several people recommended buying a half size larger. So I bought a 41 and they fit perfectly. I recently ordered the black pearl leather and thought they were too black -- the picture makes them look more dark gray. Not quite the color I wanted so they went back. I may buy the flame shimmer -- WHAT a red! They're VERY comfortable right out of the box, and very stylish. The footbed is soothing, soft, and supportive. I LOVE them. I'm a new Naot buyer (the price seemed an obstacle) -- and I'll be back! They're worth it.

I am pregnant and could not find a sandal that didn't hurt. The rep at Nordstrom suggested this one and I have been in HEAVEN ever since. The best purchase so far I have no pain or discomfort at the end of the day... This show is my greatest buy!!!

My favorite sandals are Naots and they are several years old; therefore, I decided to invest in a new pair of Naots. This style sandal, though, is not so comfortable. I've tried 4 or 5 times to wear this sandal yet it causes pain up my right leg every time I wear them!! I hope I can find someone who wears size 40 and would like a pair of Naot sandals.

Super comfortable, could wear them all day and night BUT.....leather stretched out too much and now velcro won't tighten up enough and know my ankle is rolling. Looking for a closed toe and cannot use any of the suede type, it has to be all leather to work in the restaurant. This shoe has wonderful support. Own danskos and they kill my heels when i wear them.

I've bought a new pair of Naot sandals every summer for over a decade and wear them daily. These were a hands down favorite for looks, but the worst for comfort and durability. The velcro straps are far too loose and won't stay closed. All the leather has stretched, causing my ankles to roll. Most of my Naots can be worn a second season, but I couldn't wear these after 2 months.

I ordered another pair due to the first one had straps of different lengths and the velcro would not stay facened. The second pair had the same issue but on the right shoe vs the left shoe. The retailer had there shoe repair attempt to add more valcro but he also cut the straps shorter which made the shoe unwarable & had to return them. Too bad for me because I loved this foot bed. I now ordered the Kate, hopefully this will work for me. I got the Vibe 'flow', FYI they run one size too big. Good support but nothing like the elegant collection foot bed.

I love the foot bed, so comfortable. The straps do not allow enough valcro for strapping. My left ankle kept rolling over, I thought better stop wearing them I'm going to break my ankle. I put the 2 shoes next to each other and noticed that the strap on the left shoe was an inch longer than the right shoe. So, when I would strap them up the valcro barely touched the other portion of the valcro that keeps the strap facened. Anyway, taking them back to the store, hopefully they can get this fixed. Otherwise, I love them.

These sandals are my ultimate favorite shoe. I can walk to the ends of the Earth,with this sandal. I was in an "Aerosole Shoe Store" in philly where I live and a girl walked into the store with a Nu buck Rachel. I stopped her right in her tracks,and she told me where to purchase them. This is the most comforatble sandal I have ever owned, and they are so stylish. Nothing compares! My feet go on vacation every single time I place my feet and spread my toes inside this Rachel. I would do a TV commercial for NAOT for free,that's how strongly I feel this shoe!!

I love the comfort and how great they look on -- with skirts, shorts and pants. But my big toe got a blister from wearing them barefoot for an hour. From now on I'll wear them with socks till the shoe "loosens" up.

I love these shoes!!! It is so hard to find shoes that both feel great and look great, so I'm buying them in every color. The style is fun and goes with summer dresses and shorts. I do wish they came in some fun colors like red, coral or lime green as well as the nuetrals.
