Reviewer: Herlinda L from Waimanalo, Hawaii
Overall:1 stars   Comfort:1 stars   Look:5 stars

I've worn and loved the Helen for 10 years now, so I yearned for a little variety. I ignored a reviewer who said that this shoe felt like it didn't want to stay on your foot. This is true! It feels like, when I walk, I have to curl my toes down to keep the shoes on. How tiresome! I regret not having bought another pair of Helen's that I would've worn every day for 2-3 years. Live and learn.

I was disappointed in this sandals as I have been wearing Mephistos for years all summer long. This one doesn\'t have enough arch support so I can\'t wear them all day or on even short hikes. Think they skimped on the cork bed. To bad as I really like the design.

This is my first pair of Mephistos shoes in bronze. The leather is beautiful and the sandal is very comfortable with excellent arch and lateral support. At first I thought they were a bit too wide across the ball of the foot but wearing them on hot summer days proved otherwise. The other bonus is they are light weight which makes them an excellent travel shoe. The bronze goes with everything and is very understated. Another plus is they don't look clunky on the foot.

This is a great sandal - very comfortable. I wear a 7.5 and ordered the 38 based on other people's reviews and it fit perfectly!

The Afida by Mephisto has no padding for the ball of your foot. My favorite Mephisto is the Casilda and I was looking for something as fabulous and the Afida was not. I had a bunion removed and I seem to have less padding in the ball of my foot. When I do wear these shoes, my foot slides and the ball of my foot rubs on the suede footbed. I have lasting pain for days on my skin and in the ball of my foot and have to ice it down. Very expensive and very unsatisfied with this one. Plus my daughter says they look like "old lady shoes."

I have worn Mephisto sandals for years and have always found them to be light in weight, comfortable and very attractive. This particular style is especially attractive and cheerful. I highly recommend this particular style for its attractiveness and comfort.

Love these sandals - Just got these sandals- anticipating summer. They are so comfortable! I wear a 10 or 10.5 and ordered these in a 40. They fit perfectly! I love Mephistos and I love Zappos! Last fall, I was looking for a black, narrow dress shoe. Zappos sent me 15 pair to choose from- I found the ONE pair I needed and sent the rest back. No problem. Where else could you do that? I seldom shop anywhere else.

Love the Color! I've lost track of the number of Mephistos I own. They were the only sandal I could wear all day long. This is my first Afida and I love the color. They are not as rigid as the Heidi or Helen but they still provided support the one day that I have worn them. My only concern is that my little toe may be trying to sneak out on the right foot, other than that I really love them.

Great Comfort! These shoes are great! I have a herniated disc in my back. These are the only shoes I can wear that don't seem to make the pressure worse in my back. They make me almost feel like I am walking on air.

Mephistos are GREAT! I have 4 pair of Mephisto sandals and love them. The last pair isn't as soft as the first 3 pairs, due to the composition of the cork in the sole, making them higher. I find the size is accurate. Wish Mephisto would make another pair in camel color.

Careful! The jury is out on these sandals. I found they ran a size small, but once I got the right size, they seemed very comfortable. No break in time needed. Strangely enough, for some reason when walking up stairs they don't stay on your feet and the toe hits the edge of the step. I read about this same problem in another review and now I know exactly what they meant, could be dangerous.

Mephisto Afida sandals are the best! I absolutely love these sandals. I can walk all day in NYC wearing these. They are true to size and the best sandals I have ever owned. You do not have to break them in...They were slightly wider than I expected, but that can be adjusted. Everyone should own a pair...

Mephisto Afida sandal - These sandals are extremely comfortable, as well as attractive. I love them so much that I bought them in five colors. My feet will be very happy all summer.

Beautiful shoe - I have one wide foot and one not-so-wide foot, and this blissfully comfortable shoe easily adjusted across the instep to fit both. I'm a 7.5-8 and ordered a 38, despite the warnings about the shoe running small. They're perfect. The design of the shoe is incredibly flattering to the foot and to the leg, even though they're flats. And I love the Apple Green nubuck! Also, Zappos rocks. I ordered these shoes on Saturday night and received them Monday morning. You guys work too hard! But I'm not going to complain. I've never had anything but the best service from your company.

NYC walker - These are so comfortable like slippers, very soft leather. True to size and full for m-w. Nice looking for casual dress with white side walls. Wish they came in pale pink, too.

Mephisto Afida - I recently bought these shoes and they are beyond comfortable. This is my second pair of Mephistos. My husband swears by Mephistos. I know they are expensive, but they are worth it.

Returning this shoe - I love the look of this shoe on my foot BUT it does not stay tight on my foot- the other day I fell down as I took a step up a curb because it dangled from my heel and caught the edge of the cement - at 60 years old I don't like skinned knees! I've tried different buckle settings but it doesn't help- the foot bed is not all that comfortable for a shoe this expensive!

Comfy shoes - These shoes are wonderful. Your feet feel like they're naked. I usually wear a size 8 1/2 shoe and found that the 38 fit much better than the 39. The 39 was too wide.

I've never had an uncomfortable or bad-fitting Mephisto shoe. They make shoes for people with unhappy feet. I just wish their sandals were made in half-sizes like their walking shoes.

Mephisto Afida - Excellent comfort and support! They feel like slippers and you don't need to break them in. The first time I wore them I walked for hours in Manhattan and had no complaints. Great colors to choose from...I bought them in black and brown.
