This is my third pair of these sandals in a decade. I love them literally until I wear them out. And that takes some doing, because they are very well made.

Love this sandal! I have problem feet and need lots of arch support. These are the only sandals I order anymore - they are so comfortable and stylish too.

I have a long thin foot with a high arch so it is difficult to find the right shoe and the right fit. These sandals felt perfect right out of the box which is a rarity for me. I would recommend these to anyone looking for a comfortable everyday sandal.

Love these! Felt comfortable right out of the box. I have worn them several days all day. No breaking in period. My feet are somewhat narrow. While unlike Birkenstocks, they are too wide for me. These are perfect.

Extremely comfortable and versatile with more cushion than the Birkenstock cork sandals I also love. The Mephisto size chart can help with the best fit instead of ordering twice like I did. I normally wear an 8 1/2, and although there is a suggestion to size up, 9 was too big so reordered an 8 which was just right and stayed on nicely without extra tightening of the straps.

This is my 4th pair for Mephisto Helen's. They are a bit stiff straight out of the box, but after only 2 or 3 wears they are awesome. My child competes in swim meets and there is no better shoe to stand on cement with all day long. They are not water proof, but you can't beat the support.

I love Helen, this is my 8th pair. If you have foot problems such as plantar fasciitis, high arch, the arch support is excellent. This color looks good too! The size is right on. They last forever so the price is worth it!!

My favorite for years. The leather inner soles feel so good. Naturally it takes a little while to brake them in again.

Sizing, I usually take a 9.5 and the 41 fit perfectly.
I have never worn this type of sandal before to earthy but think this design is nice looking.

I have ordered this same shoe several times. They are comfortable and durable. Before I found these, I was having some foot pain issues, no more. I do have to order a 1/2 size larger than I normally wear AND the leather is super tight when new but they will loosen after you break them in. I will continue to order these shoes.

I am usually a size 11.5-12, depending on the brand. I have a narrow foot. The size 43 fit me well, the 42 was too small.

I have purchased two pairs of these sandals. The first pair are so perfectly comfortable it made sense to purchase another as a more casual pair. They are super comfortable and all I had hoped they would be except there is a small piece under the strap where the buckle is attached that is digging into my foot. This has rendered these shoes unwearable! Sadly, I do not think I can return or exchange them.

I have a narrow foot and these were perfect. I wear a 7.5 and the 38 fit much better than 39. Nubuck is so soft and works with my bunion.

I bought these when I found myself unable to cope with the heat and all the walking in Las Vegas when I was 30 weeks pregnant. I Googled to find a store that sold comfortable shoes near our hotel, went straight there, purchased these, changed into them in the shop and felt like a different person. I barely took them off the whole rest of my pregnancy and long afterwards. 2 years later still wear them all the time, even though they stretched due to my swollen feet when I first wore them. Planning to buy another pair in the pink snakeskin as soon as they come back in stock in my size. The only thing I was was different about these is that they're not super stylish as the sole is quite thick. Birkenstocks have a thinner sole. However, the reason I purchased these vs Birkenstocks (even though Birkies are cheaper) is the lady in the store said they don't have a "breaking in" period unlike Birkenstocks, which I found to be true and well worth the extra $$$.

The blue are gorgeous. This is my second pair of Helen shoes. Wore my first pair constantly for almost five years. They take some breaking in, but well worth it!

I just ordered my third pair of these sandals. I appreciate that this style is still available since my first pair which I purchased about 10 years ago. They have great arch support for a sandal, and are comfortable for walking and standing all day. They are more feminine than Birkenstocks, but have a similar cork footbed.

My favorite Mephisto shoe, for the last 15 years. I have purchased the Helen in several colors and love the support and comfort...meanwhile I can walk in the for hours on vacation and still look ok, not like I'm wearing something orthopaedic. Thanks Zappos!

This is my 3rd pair of Mephistos. My mom and I both LOVE them. They are stylish and very good if you need arch support. I like that the band across the top is adjustable making it a much better fit than a flip flop or other dress sandal. They are pricey but they last forever and your feet will thank you!
