The Arataki is a stylish closed - toe slingback shoe boasting unique cutout designs. It comes with a convenient hook - and - loop closure at the instep. Naot's removable anatomic cork and latex footbed, wrapped in soft suede, molds to your foot shape as you wear it. The Koru Collection features a 1 - inch polyurethane sole that is super lightweight, long - lasting, and slip - resistant. The hand - sewn Strobel construction makes these shoes strong and highly flexible. These shoes are also recognized by the American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA) for promoting good foot health. They fit true to size, but if you're a half - size, it's better to size up. The sole is made of polyurethane, the heel height is 1 inch, the width is medium, they're slip - resistant, orthotic - friendly, and have a removable footbed.

Using these Naot Arataki shoes is a breeze. Just slip your feet in and adjust the hook - and - loop closure at the instep for a snug fit. Since they're true to size, you can easily pick the right size, but remember, if you're a half - size, go up a size. When it comes to maintenance, keep them clean by gently wiping with a soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the suede on the footbed. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use. These shoes are slip - resistant, but still be careful on extremely wet or slippery surfaces. Also, because they're orthotic - friendly, you can insert your custom orthotics if needed, but make sure not to over - tighten the closure to maintain comfort.
