Detailed Review
The NAOT Fresno Sandal excels in comfort and style, thanks primarily to its innovative anatomic cork and latex footbed. This feature allows the sandal to adapt to the contours of your feet, providing personalized support as you wear them over time. Coupled with a plush suede wrap, this footbed feels luxurious against your skin, reducing fatigue during prolonged use.
In terms of style, the combination of white pearl leather and sand stone suede creates a versatile look suitable for casual outings or more dressed-up occasions. The oversized buckle is not only a stylish accent but also functional, allowing you to adjust the fit effortlessly.
On practicality, the slide design with a toe loop keeps your foot securely in place without the need for constant adjustments, making them ideal for daily wear. The lightweight manmade outsole provides durability without adding extra weight, ensuring you can walk comfortably whether you're running errands or enjoying a leisurely stroll.

User Reviews
I love these! My 3rd pair or Naots in 20 years, and my other 2 are still in good condition! Very supportive and long lasting great quality
Can’t go wrong with the brand! Arch support meets fashion forward style! Great quality and my feet are never stressed or sore. With my high arches, I cannot wear standard flat sandals or flip flops. Found this brand and it fit the bill.
So comfortable but no size for me.
I particularly love the sleek and attractive style of this shoe!
This was wide and large everywhere else- the adjustable strap wouldn't go any smaller, and I couldn't keep them on my feet. If they work for you seem like they would be comfortable.
This is my second pair of these shoes. They are much like a Birkenstock, in that they form to your feet, but I feel like they “hold” to your feet better (my feet just slide around in Birks). Great arch support. I typically don’t like straps between my toes, but for some reason the soft leather of these shoe’s doesn’t bother me. Well worth the money!!
You will not regret this purchase. I love these sandals so much. Super cute.
I ordered this shoe for a vacation. I wore it three times. When I went to wear it the last time, I noticed there is a piece of metal sticking out of the side of the shoe that stabs my foot when I walk. It feels like the end of a very thick staple. I have tried multiple pathways to get in touch with the seller, NAOT, to ask them to either return or replace the item. Every time, they send me to a link to contact the Amazon seller, which brings me each time to the original NAOT contact form. The brand itself says they cannot help me because they are a warehouse and I need to contact the original seller, and then when I do it brings me back to the same link. At this point I have sent photos and explained the situation but I haven't gotten any assistance. For more than $150, this shoe is definitely not worth the hassle.
