These are great shoes. I love the beige patent color and they feel great to walk in. The comment from the info page about getting a size larger is true since they do run a little smaller. The best part is that unlike Birkenstocks they don't have to be broken in!

I now have 3 pairs of this sandal in various colors. I can depend on it being a sandal that is comfortable all day long!

So comfortable and light! But one color was not true! I wear an 8. My foot is fairly flat, slightly wide. I needed a 39 (9) in these because my pinkie toes kept drifting over the side of the sole. No issues with toe loop and the buckle on the instep is a total bonus for me since I needed a 9. However, the color silver star is not well represented in the images and is actually much more a metallic/mirror than the creamy color the photos depict. Still very cute but not exactly what I was looking for. I was able to find solace in the mint perle patent. And Zappos free shipping and returns cannot be beat!

I love these sandals. Have most colors. This style solved all my heel and arch problems. I live in them and they last for years - even with heavy wear and (inadvertent) ocean/river wading.

: Love, love, love these sandals! I bought two pairs of the same sandals 8 years ago and they still look great, so I decided to buy another pair in another color to add to my collection. They are extremely comfortable as well from day one. I would highly recommend these.

I really enjoy wearing these shoes, they are super comfortable and they look great on my feet even thought I have really no arch at all. I wish they would make many more shoes similar to these as they are truly worth the price. The arch support is great and I can wear them all day without any worries.

Pretty sandal but the 39 is a little short for a size 9. I'm returning them, but will try Mephisto again.

Very comfortable shoe. I ordered them in the navy as well as the silver. Really cute and I look forward to many miles in both of these shoes. They do run pretty close true to size. I wear a 7 and ordered the 37 and they seem to be fine.

Great sandal or so my sister tells me. This is the second pair I have had to buy her in a different color. They really are the rave in San Diego!

My feet are happy! I literally stepped out of my Birkenstock and into the Helen with an "aahhh!" The Helen has so much more support and stability plus the cushion/foot bed is amazing. I don't fight to keep the Helen on my foot, and I always felt I did that with the Birkenstock. I have a stress fracture of the foot from running and this sandal is what I'm going to live in this summer. I have always been a form over function girl wanting stylish shoes, and this one fits the bill on both counts.

These are the most sturdy and rugged sandals! They give wonderful support for a long day of being on your feet. I buy a new pair of the Helens every two or three years. Very comfortable foot bed and adjustable straps.

I wear a size 5 and can rarely find shoes I like in any shoe or department store. Zappos always has a variety of European sandals with great arch support in my size. The Mephisto Helen is amazingingly comfortable and has great arch support. I was able to wear the shoe all day right out of the box. No break in period was needed. I have ordered from Zappos several times and always find my day brightened in speaking with their folks. Zappos customer service reps are always courteous, friendly and extremely helpful. It's a pleasure to place an order.

This is a great looking and fitting sandal. I love the way it molds into my foot. I wear an 11 but I ordered a 12. Glad I did because due to my long toes I fear the 11 would have been a little short. Overall, I'm a happy camper and can't wait to give them a spin.

Ever since I installed marble floors in my house, these have been my shoe. Fortunately, after 16 years, they are still making them and, since I live in Florida, I usually have 4 or 5 pairs in different colours. They are just great!

Where shoes are concerned, these are perfection. I love them and only wear Mephisto. I've tried other brands but these are the only brand that make my feet happy. Thanks Zappos!

I have a difficult shoe size, 9 1/2 AAAAA, and it is not available on most shoe departments. I have shopped at Zappos forever and am never disappointed. They always provide a variety of styles and I receive my order promptly. The Mephistos are the sandal I wear from April through October because they are comfortable and I can tighten them to fit my narrow (oh, boy!) foot.

I appreciate all of the previous reviewers who recommended this as a travel sandal for trips with lots of walking. I've been wearing my pairs inside, breaking them in for our trip to Europe this summer. They are amazingly comfortable and will be perfect for our long days walking around. I ordered two other pairs once I began to wear these. A classic sandal for sure.

I've never spent so much on a pair of sandals and was very hesitant to do so. But I was looking for a comfortable pair, and so I based my decision on these positive reviews. I'm so glad I did! Perfect fit and incredibly comfortable. I'll be looking at this brand again.
