Order a size up!
I wear a size 8.5 and needed the size 40! Once I figured out the sizing, I was very pleased with this shoe. It does run on the narrow side, if my feet were any wider it would not work, but they fit. I typically wear sneakers with a very chunky orthotic; this is a nice and comfortable sandal vacation for my feet.

LOVE THEM!
I have been walking around with Plantar Fasciitis for 11 months now; in addition I have a very high arch, am a runner and have a slim foot. Nothing in the shoe world feels good, except these. I will slowly add more to my wardrobe, I absolutely love them. A great shoe AND they are very cute. I hope they will always be available. :-) My feet don’t hurt anymore-yippee!

Mephisto Helen -
The best comfort shoe. Great arch support which was very important to me. I have tried Birkenstock and Ecco -no arch at all. Also this shoe fits a narrow foot quite nicely, unlike Birkenstock which is wide. I am switching all of my shoes to Mephisto because of the great arch support.

Mephisto Helen, great shoe, size change?
I have worn this style shoe for several years, and I have three pair size 38. With my most recent purchase, size 38 was shorter than the shoes I already have. Had to reorder size 39. Helen is a narrow shoe which happens to suit my foot. I love this shoe. I just hope the sizes will stay stable.

Helen -
It’s my favorite sandal. Extremely comfortable. It does take a bit of breaking in. But once it’s done, you won't believe how great they feel. I have them in about 5 colors.

Mephisto Helen -
Very comfortable shoe. I am a size 8 1/2 or 9, so I ordered 39 and 40. I settled on the 39, but it is perfect when my feet are resting in the footbed but are a tad short in the toes when walking. Size 40 seemed too big.

This is an awesome shoe. I have a heel spur and I can’t even feel it with this shoe. It's too cute also.

Mephisto Helen -
These are really nice sandals. They have a great arch and are very comfortable. The only trouble I had was getting a blister once last fall after walking around in them for a while, but it hasn't happened since. These sandals are both cute and unique! You can basically wear them anywhere from dinner to a daytrip. I recommend them as a high-quality, universal sandal.

Fantastic!
These are my favorite sandals. They have great arch support. I can wear them all day anywhere. My feet never hurt. They also help me keep my back aligned. I wouldn't trade them for anything.

So comfortable it's my third pair -
Very comfortable and good arch support, I have had problems with my feet with so much walking in NYC. These are as comfortable as tennis shoes but have more style.

Love my Mephistos -
A friend recommended the Mephistos Helen's to me recently when we were planning a vacation with lots of walking involved. I took her advice and this ended up being the only pair of shoes I wore during the entire vacation!

Favorite shoe ever!
I bought these shoes because they had been recommended to me by a friend. I wear them almost everyday and could not ask for a more comfortable shoe! I have traveled in them, walked miles in them, and have been in all kinds of weather in them and they are still in great condition! When they eventually wear down, I will most definitely buy them again!

A real fan!
This is my 5th pair of Mephistos Helen. They will replace the pair I ruined walking all over Italy last summer. I've been living in this shoe for years because of its comfort and still get compliments on its good looks.

Simply the most comfortable sandal I have ever owned for wearing over a long period of time. I can walk all day with no foot pain!

Best Sandal Ever -
The Mephisto Helen is the best shoe or sandal I have ever worn. I have very wide feet with a very high arches, so finding a sandal that is comfortable AND supportive while looking great has been a godsend. I also have arthritis in my feet-these sandals make it possible to look stylish and not hurt. In November I broke my left foot and now have a 2" screw in my foot-I can still wear these since they adjust. I have 15+ pairs of these Helen sandals-every color I can get. In November, Mephistos resoling company totally re-did 3 of my oldest pairs. I can put these next to my new ones and I cannot tell the difference. Try them.

Fantastic Slipper -
This is a great slipper. Very comfortable. I bought a size up as was recommended and the fit was excellent. I think I will get a few more colors. Well done Zappos on the deliver.

I find I have to order a size smaller than my normal size. I wear a 6 shoe, but buy the Helens in a 35.

My fourth pair...
My first pair of Helen's I bought maybe 7 or 8 years ago. They are a wonderful fit with just the right support for my foot. I could walk in them all day and still be comfortable. I still have all of my "Helen's", when it is warm, I put them on the first thing in the morning as slippers and keep them as long as appropriate. I did buy a size larger than my others. I could wear the same size but the next size up was more comfortable. I find the nubuck to be more comfortable. They last for years... A good value!

Mephisto Helen -
Hands-down, THE most comfortable shoes I've ever worn... and they look great. What's not to love? I wear a lot of Dansko and Birkenstocks, but slipping my feet into the Helen sandals is the epitome of podiatric heaven! I'm slowly building my inventory one color at a time.

I have this style shoe in so many colors and materials. It's a great shoe for folks with lower back problems. The support is just great. I will continue to buy them as long as Mephisto makes them!

This is the fifth pair of these sandals I've bought in various colors. They've got to have the most comfortable footbed on the planet. I enjoy them all year round here in Southern California--indoors on the tile floor in winter & outdoors in summer. I truly recommend them to all.
