Customer Reviews Mephisto Helen

Do you know Mephistos are expensive? Because you are buying happiness for your feet! I have several pairs, purchased throughout the years. Not one disappointment: they are made extremely well, I love the styles, they are comfortable the first time you put them on, they last forever, and everytime I reach for them, I think, "ahhhhhh, my mephistos." They are worth every penny.

Nice color and great fit. The arch is the highest I’ve ever had in a shoe without using orthotics and it is quite comfortable. Definitely a keeper.

Love these shoes! They're super comfortable, and cute enough for me to wear to work all summer long. They also have excellent arch support, so my feet aren't killing me by the end of the day. I'm a size 9, but had to order a 40 (size 10 according to them) for them to fit properly. Highly recommend, and worth every penny.

I normally wear a 6.5 but ordered a 7 and it was too long so those went back and I ordered the 6.5. The shoes are cute but are more narrow than the Birkenstocks I normally wear so I sent those back too. Sad because I wanted something different. They are very comfortable and recommend them for people with narrower feet.

LOVE my mephistos. This is my third pair of their sandals and I'll keep coming back for more. You can't beat them for comfort. They're terrific for walking locally and on vacations.

I ordered a size up as suggested and a Medium width. I am still breaking them in but I love the look - esp in the platinum- and they provide immediate support and relief during a period of foot pain due to Morton's Neuroma. Highly recommend.

Just as you said, I needed this Mephisto one size larger than my usual Mephisto size. I’ll of course return the smaller shoe I ordered in my regular Mephisto size. This shoe replaces a sandal with the sMe footbed that I finally wore out after miles and miles of use. Thanks

This is my 4th pair of Mephisto shoes. I have had foot problems in the past secondary to a high arch and these shoes give me the support I need in a slip on sandal. I've never had a problem with the quality, always excellent, Hard to wear "flat" sandals now because these are so comfortable!

I've had this style before, several times in the past years. I got the turquoise mimetic, not realizing that they would have a little sparkle. Not what I was looking for, so I returned them. But, these are great sandals, and I would buy them again. Just waiting for the "right" color!

I've had a pair of Etna Bronze Helens for nearly 10 years. They wear like iron and become "yours" by the second wearing. Decided it was time for a new pair so I ordered the Grey Etna in both a 41 and a 42 (normally a 10.5 - 11M). My left foot is a smidge wider than my right so this shoe is a smidge narrow for it. However, the "wide" version of Helen doesn't hit my arch in the same way and is too wide for my right foot. Returned the 42 because the arch wasn't correct but the 41 is spot-on. Gotta love Zappos' service while you try to find your right size. I also trust them because I know I'll be receiving the "real thing," not a knock-off. Love the Helen sandals and totally recommend them.

I have been wearing Mephisto Helen sandals for years. They are great to work in if you are on your feet all day. They are so comfortable and stylish at the same time. I have them in many colors ! They are my go to spring and summer sandals ! I love them.

These are really comfortable sandals !!! I am going to buy another pair in another color!

My second pair. I love these shoes! They are dreamy. Pricey, yes. Totally worth it. Be sure to read the enclosed info from Mephisto about proper fitting. In a nutshell, almost everyone needs to go up one size. Just do it. The hardest decision is color - so many fun options! In my opinion, the style is quite common so I prefer a color with a bit of spark or pizzazz (like if my last name was Smith I probably wouldn't name my kid Jane or John). This time I chose Blue Star.

Love these shoes but they are about 1/2 inch too short.

great comfortable sandal, wish they don't raise price. It use to be $126 now its more expensive

With my flat feet, the Mephisto Helen is a joy to wear. Supporting my arches, the cork cushioned sole allows me to wear these sandals all day long. I have a pair I use as slippers, too.

This is my fourth pair of Helen sandals and my first one in black. As always, they fit well right out of the box. I expect minimal breaking in, as with my other pairs. Even though Zappos recommends ordering up one whole size, I wear a 37 European or 7 US in Mephisto. If I buy a pair of Naot, I get a 38/8 for the best fit. What I'm saying, is don't upsize automatically, unless you are a half size. Birkenstocks do not fit my arch and foot configuration at all, so I don't buy any of those. Highly recommend the Helen sandals for comfort, support and yes, style.

Been wearing this sandal for years. I love it!

This is my second pair. I wore the first pair for 2 years almost every day. They are absolutely the easiest wearing sandals I have ever had. I love the support they give me. You can dress up or down with wearing these. Love them.

Great sandal, have owned several of this style over the last few years. Loved this new blue color, will be great with so many things. Awesome Zappos service, as always!

Best sandle for my flat feet. I wear 81/2 medium, the 39 was a good fit. The shoe helps to keep my body in alignment. No more back or knee pain. I bought the tan color and it goes with everything. It did take me a couple of days to get used to the arch support, I had fallen arch on both feet.

Birkenstock are my typical go to shoes but I thought I’d try Mephisto and I LOVE them.

Love this sandal! The color is beautiful and can go with spring attire. You can walk 20 blocks in NYC or San Diego. I have several of this style in various colors. I love them all. Enjoy!

Mephisto is well worth the price. Excellent arch support. I’ve received several compliments on these.

Like the red.
