Love these shoes, very comfortable and stylish. A strap broke wearing them once on the first pair. Zappos has a fantastic customer service and replaced them the very next day. Fun for summer and lots of compliments! Thanks Zappos.

Most comfortable sandal - Have had a pair of these for 3 years and had them resoled once. The tops are beginning to wear and am thinking of another pair.

Unbelievable - Can't describe how comfortable these are. Worth every single penny.

Not quite 5 stars - I have had a pair for 3 years now and they seem to run a bit large and the air pocket squeaks as it has ruptured. I will have to send back for repair. Took a while to break in, but now feel almost as comfortable as my Merrells which are fantastic and much less, but there is that Mephisto look that is hard to beat.

Perfect everyday use - I was never that much of a sandal person until a friend let me try his Mephisto Sharks and they were so comfortable. I just had to get a pair of my own. Now I pretty much where them all of the time outside of work. To the beach, to the stores, wherever. They are Perfect! I definitely recommend and certainly worth the money for this kind of comfort.

Great looking sandal - I got these for my husband's birthday. He wanted to know what I paid for them, before he tried them on, because they looked expensive. I wouldn't tell him...Once he tried them on...he wouldn't take them off. He didn't ask the price again. Very comfortable--worth the price too.

Best sandals ever - This is my second pair of Mephistos ( I bought the first one nine years ago & wore them regularly). I thought nothing could surpass those but these are simply the best. Felt like I had them for years just after one day.

The world's most comfortable sandal - I have been wearing the Mephisto Shark for several years. We live in the Southwest and they get a lot of use. They are extremely comfortable and the sole has great traction.

Mephisto's Shark - All I asked for. I do wish they would change the inner sole to a dark color. The green gets looking pretty ratty looking long before the sandals wears out.

Wow! I do not think any shoes is worth this kind of money but these come the closest of any shoe I have tried. I have a high arch and usually wear arch supports. It is hard to so with sandals. I do not have to ware supports with these sharks. The most comfortable shoe I have worn.
