Teva Naot (Hebrew: טבע נאות) is an Israeli shoe and sandal manufacturer based at Kibbutz Neot Mordechai.
Naot's products include a variety of shoes and sandals for men, women and children with special insoles that conform to the shape of the wearer's foot.
"I aimed at a sort of Israelization of Birkenstock,” said Bar-Nahor, referring to a well-known German footwear manufacturer.
Traditional biblical sandals had inflexible soles; Naot used a flexible footbed of cork, natural rubber or leather.
