The most comfortable sandals you'll ever buy. I have wide feet and a very high instep and after having foot surgery this is the only sandal I can wear. Great arch support. Lots of great color options. After a while they loosen up but that's no problem because you can just adjust the strap! I've worn Mephistos for years; however, since my surgery I've had to switch from the Ularia to the Helen. Mephisto sandals are the best and last forever. It's just a matter of finding the right one for you!

I have worn Mephisto Helen for more than 12 years and have always loved them... until the last purchase I made. My feet stink every time after wearing them and they have literally disintegrated (both pairs, purchased at the same time) within 6 months. Extremely disappointing given that they have been my all-time favorite for years, but I won't order them again.

My first Mephisto purchase and certainly not my last! I normally wear size 10-10.5. The size 11(41) fit perfectly. The adjustable strap gives my narrow foot a secure fit in this shoe. I will definitely order the Helen in other colors.
I'd also recommend: Mephisto is my new recommendation!

I am a true 7.5 & the 38 is a perfect fit. Comfortable right out of the box. I had ordered the grey etna & found it to be way too shiny, & almost a bronzy grey. It was almost cheap looking. It is darker in the photo. I returned them for the waxy black sandals & they are much more stylish. The piece between the toe on the grey etna was stiffer than the waxy black. Perhaps because it was a patent leather type material. The waxy black leather is soft & feels already broken in. Got these to wear on an Italian vacation this summer. The appear to be a comfortable, substantial shoe for walking with a lot of arch support.

I bought these hoping they would be a more elegant alternative to my high arch Birkenstocks, which are miracle cures for plantar fasciitis and great for my arthritic toes but really ugly. The arches of these Helens are not as high as those of the high arch Birks (they are comparable to a regular Birkenstock, I feel) and unlike Birkenstocks, which are flat, these sandals have a heel that is somewhat raised. I found that this made my foot slide forward and press down uncomfortably on the strap between my toes. Sadly, I am returning these sandals.

I searched and searched for the perfect summer sandal (casual yet dressy and comfortable). This is the sandal. Fits perfectly and looks so cute. I love that the straps can be made tighter or looser (my feet sometimes swell). This sandal is worth the money. In fact I just ordered another Mephisto sandal (Elka) as well!

I had another pair of these a while back and lost them. They are the best! So comfy you could wear them all day. Thanks for all you help and many exchanges, you are the best. Love the color too, really shiny and gem to go with silver accessories. Thanks, Zappos!
I'd also recommend: FitFlops are awesome.
