I had seen the Miista Noa shoes on Instagram for quite a while before I decided to purchase them. These gorgeous woven raffia shoes seemed to grace the feet of just about every Instagram star. I love the knitted look of handbags and this spring\/summer shoe style definitely appealed to me as well!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Noa shoes are made of beautiful natural-colored raffia. They are hand-woven in Spain using traditional techniques, but the Miista design team is based in London. They have a leather sole and a very walkable low 4.5cm block heel. The tip is slightly squared, for a modern look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As I mentioned in my Miista Taissa review<\/a>, you have to size down in Miistas if you want them to fit. I normally take a 37 (7 US), but in these shoes, I went with 36 at the advice of the shop assistant. Miista sizing can be tricky, so try them on if you can or order two sizes to compare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the Taissa’s did stretch after wearing them around the house with socks on, the Noas show no signs of letting up! They are still super tight when I wear them and I have to put band-aids on ahead of time otherwise my feet will get blisters. I’m hoping that as time goes on, they will loosen up even more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While I love them as a new addition to my French girl shoe collection<\/a>, I definitely won’t be taking long strenuous walks around Paris in them! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n
