The hands-down most comfortable shoes that have ever been invented! I have bunions that prevent me from wearing regular flats. These Naot Matais are so spiffy and comfortable I can't even believe it. I replaced the insert in the right shoe with a lower (flatter) insert for a while so that my bad bunion would not hurt when I first wore the shoes -- and it worked! I had zero trouble getting used to these shoes, wore them right away all day, comfortably. They are really wonderful! Well worth the price!

Undeniably comfortable and cute. However, after less than a year, not even wearing the shoes very often, a slit appeared on the outside suede edge. Instead of sending them back, I super glued the slit. Mistake!. I wore the shoes today for the first time in several months and the slit ripped even longer. For a shoe of this price, I expect much better quality. Also, the velcro strap will no longer hold firmly. I have to tighten it often. I would not recommend buying this shoe unless you have no concern about spending big bucks then having the shoe wear out quickly. If you need arch support, you will need to buy inserts.

These shoes work wonderfully for me, even though they are very expensive in my opinion. My feet are extremely difficult to fit. Almost no shoes work for me. I need a very roomy toe box and a heel that doesn't slip. I have purchased a few pairs of these over the past 5 years or so. The only problem I've had is that sooner or later the strap will break off. I've had my current pair for a few years though. I wear these shoes with pants or jeans, not with a skirt. I am a 9-9.5 (wide) shoe size, and I take a 40 in these.

Would have loved to have this shoe, as it is super comfy on my super sensitive feet, but had to return two pairs of the same shoe. I usually wear an 8.5 so the 39 (8) fit just fine as it runs about a half size big. The first pair was defective and the second had been previously worn and was mismatched to the other unworn shoe. Very disappointed and very unlike Zappos. Paying this amount of money for shoes, you expect perfect, brand new shoes. I guess I will be looking for my Matai elsewhere, but for what it is worth, it is one fantastic shoe!

These shoes were comfortable right out of the box. At this price, they should be. They are also very attractive. I broke my foot last year, and no more heels for me. These make me feel fashionable as well as comfy.
