Overall:

This shoe is very comfortable for me, and I have received compliments. My foot is slightly narrow, whereas this shoe is supposed to be a medium width. However, past experience with Mephisto led me to order it anyway, as Mephisto shoes usually quickly adapt to my feet.

Wow! I threw out all my old shoes and I'm living in these Gamas! I have pronation which has caused chondromalacia (terrible knee pain) over the last two years. Now I can only wear shoes with a higher arch support. My knee pain is gone because of these shoes and other Mephistos I have. Can I rate it 10 stars?! What would I do without you Zappos?! I can order shoes at night and they're at my door in the morning! I love your company!

1st of all, I have never found a company with such a great customer relations department. This is the 1st pair of Mephisto shoes I have purchased. I cannot walk barefoot on our hardwood floors anymore. I also have an extremely high arch. These shoes are great; I teach high school and to put these on after a day at school is heaven.

I love this sandal! I have had a black pair for 2-3 years and they are my favorite, comfy sandal. I can walk all day in them at work or on vacation. They are a little pricey, but they have held up well. This time I got the red ones (chianti) and the color is great, kind of a dark red/burgundy.

Overall:

These shoes are great - look terrific, not clunky.Yes, when you first get them, the three adjustable straps are tight but they're easy to adjust and you can REALLY get a perfect fit. They are definitely worth a try - I wear a lot of Mephistos and these are at the top of my list.

Overall:

I wear 8 1/2 slim and the 8 1/2 med fit pretty well because the strap is adjustable. I find the bed to be pretty hard. I normally buy sandals from Born and Merrell which are much softer.

Overall:

These are very comfortable shoes. I have severe foot problems due to previous fractures and have difficulty finding shoes that are supportive, yet light-weight and not orthotic looking. These are perfect. Very attractive with the patent accent, too. They felt comfortable right out of the box.

Overall:

I have several pair of Mephisto sandals and I love them. They are a little narrower than Birkenstocks and have a much softer footbed. This is my second pair of Hannel style which are excellent for my very narrow feet, 4A. And as always, Zappos is the best Internet shoe supplier in the country!

Overall:

These sandals are very comfortable for walking and look attractive. There is only one problem. The metal ring on the upper strap digs into my feet and I have to put pieces of foam rubber underneath it on both feet. A better design would be to have a crossover strap (like the bottom strap.) When I pay this much for sandals I expect better than this.

Overall:

I bought these Mephisto Helen sandals after wearing Birkenstocks for the last year. I think the Mephistos have much better support. The soles are cushiony and very comfortable. They are slightly narrow, but fit fine. There was no "break in" period; they were great from the start. Mine have a shiny patent finish which I like, and have had compliments on.

I tried this boot on 2 weeks ago and they are fabulous! They feel so comfortable and look great. I plan to buy them close to Christmas. I wish they were priced a little more affordable. I have tried many boots and paid high only to have them take space in my closet. This boot is a keeper and a lifer for that price!

With a case of chronic plantar fasciitis, I am forced to be very fussy about my shoes. These Mephisto sandals are wonderful! Great arch support and comfortable from the first step out of the box.

Reviewer: Marlene C from South Haven, MI

Overall:

I ordered this shoe mostly hoping it would look a little less clunky than my Merrell clogs and yet be just as comfy. It failed on both counts. It looks passable for a clog, but I did not feel as sure-footed in the shoe. Rather than my foot being cradled in the shoe, I feel like I'm walking (& balancing) on top of it. The heel is higher than I anticipated and the shoe seems to stretch out the longer I wear it.

These shoes are beautiful and comfortable. Unfortunately, not true to size. But don't go forth boldly and think you can go a 1/2 size up on all of Mephistos. Read each review and hope someone mentions it! But a great shoe.

Overall:

I got these shoes in the bronze and they are so beautiful; they look almost black with a brown tone so I can wear them with any color outfit. I got them in a 7 and they are a bit big, but I can take out the insert and put my orthotic in and they fit great. And I can walk in them all day. Mephitos never fail me. They are the best if you have foot problems.

Reviewer: Scott B from Los Angeles

Overall:

Not at all durable! Wear out quickly, poor construction, started coming apart! Very comfortable for walking, but the tread only lasted 75 miles! Three weeks of walking! For this price, this is unacceptable. Zappos customer service was great; they accepted the return no problem. The manufacturer could care less; I contacted them and their customer service department is an oxymoron, they offered little help/support/explanation.

Reviewer: Victoria H from Minnesota

Overall:

I bought this boot because I wanted something that would give the look of a good trouser shoe, but be somewhat more substantial for winter. I wanted something that was comfortable for traveling as well and would offer good support for long days of walking. I also wanted it to be fairly easy to slip on and off, and, of course, I wanted it to look good, too. I bought this shoe without trying it on first because I couldn't find it in any of the shops, but it had the look I wanted (the embossed "croc" pattern is very attractive) and I have another pair of Mephisto shoes and like them. This boot delivers on all my criteria. I am very happy with my purchase. I did use a shoe horn to help get it on at first, but now it has "relaxed" just enough for me to slip my foot in and out, great for the airport! I have a high arch and sometimes have trouble with fit over the top part of my foot, but this boot doesn't pinch. My first purchase from Zappos; service seems first rate.

I love these shoes and I now have them in 2 colors. They are very comfortable and great for walking. Lots of arch support. They fit my narrow foot much better than other comfort brands like Birkenstock or Simple and they are a bit more stylish.

Overall:

Bottom line perfect boot, you need not read any further in my review. A little background on my shoe buying experience. I am 5,10\' average weight and I go for comfort & style, no exceptions. God had humor and he created me with a sz.10 foot, medium/wide, with a very high arch and a very high instep (if you don\'t know what it is, you are lucky), so boots are out of the question if they do not adjust on the top. I bought this shoe in sz.10 and although the shoe runs true to size (I have close to 7mm in the front, which Mephisto recommends)the back of my heel is propped to the very edge making it very annoying. I will take back sz.10 and get 1/2 sz or 1sz up. The boot looks and feels precious! It has a swede look but is apparently waterproof, looks like I can dress it up and down. You will not regret the exorbitant amount of money you will invest in this piece of art. I have half a mind to name my unborn child "Mephisto Linda" even though its a boy.

I love Mephistos and I found the best price at Zappos! Every time I order, it comes right away, and they have the best return policy. Also they are great at getting the credit back on your card timely. I hardly every shop for shoes, except with Zappos.

Reviewer: Anonymous from Minneapolis, MN

Overall:

The Mephisto Celerina is an amazingly comfortable shoe. I have an arthritic toe and a sensitive bunion on my left foot which makes shoe shopping a bigger issue for me. The cut of a shoe has to either bypass or completely cover the bunion or the pressure on the nerves of that foot is really painful. The Celerina presented none of those problems to me. I slipped the shoes on, and, like Cinderella's, they fit perfectly. There were no seams to press on my bunion/nerve sensitive area. The toe box allowed for my toes to have enough room and not be pinched. The height of the wedge and arch were both comfortable and stylish. The cut of the shoe made my foot look very slender. The innersole is soft but firm with little air holes that allow one's feet to breathe. The comfort alone is worth the price.

Oh, so comfy with an elegant look. Mephisto makes a quality shoe that provides quality wear. The Celerina dresses up slacks and jeans and can be worn with skirts and dresses. Sizing is true.

My Mephisto Hurrikans arrived very quickly from Zappos and fit perfectly. One of my feet is a bit bigger than the other one, so one shoe is a bit loose, but nothing worth fussing about. They have been very comfortable from the start and I'm proud to wear them.

Great sandals! Comfortable and good support for my high arches. Go to the brick store and find your size and then order from Zappos. They are terrific! No hassles, best price around, free shipping, no tax, and instant delivery. I am a believer. (Mephisto shoes are actually good for your feet, even better than Clarks).
