I love these sandals!!
They are so comfortable that even the pain that I often have in my legs disappear when I wear my Mephistos. They are worth the money!

Mephisto Helen is a very comfortable sandal. I am having problems with my right foot and this sandal is my favorite for comfort.

Fabulous Shoes!
This is my 4th pair of Mephisto Helens! This is the best shoe for my plantar fasciitis. My feet, knees, and back no longer hurt when wearing these shoes with great arch support. They are great for walking and look so cute!

Love the style.
It was recommended to order 1 size up from the size I normally wear. I did that and the shoe was too big. Ordered my normal size and it fit perfectly. Took a day to break in the strap by the big toe. Wear these all the time and love them!

Perfect Posture with Comfort and Style -
Just enough pick me up to do the job with comfort and style. Strong looking and manufactured to perfection. I can't express enough how this sandal will be a keeper forever. Not inexpensive but everyone should save or ask for gift cards from Zappos for that special occasion. Sandal also forces you to have better posture with that special comfort that we all deserve. Thank you Mephisto for this superior shoe and thank you Zappos for top notch service.

Good for my ankles -
These sandals have really helped my falling ankles. I wear these sandals all the time instead of bare feet. They take a little getting used to, but it's worth it. I wear a 5 1/2, so went with the 6 equivalent. Have had several compliments on how nice they look.

This is my 4th pair of Helens. I just can't get enough of this soft, comfortable supportive sandal. I wear them all the time. They are a little clunky looking, but everything else is perfection.

The most comfortable sandal I've ever worn - As soon as I slipped these on I knew it was the sandal I've been looking for. Excellent arch support. I have a narrow foot and this sandal works for me. I had a little problem with one foot where the band of the sandal rubbed on my second toe, but I put a piece of mole skin on the sandal and it was fine. They are very well made, I really like the suede lining – my foot doesn't sweat in them and stick to the shoe. I wear them with everything. They are very cute and I've gotten lots of compliments on them. This is my first pair of Mephistos and it won't be my last. I was a Birkenstock addict – I've now changed to Mephistos. As usual, Zappos is wonderful to deal with. Great company, only wished I lived where you were so I could work for you.

Wonderful -
These are the best sandals I have ever owned, they are great for walking and fun to wear. They look very smart with just about any summer outfit and I should know... I'm 74 years young...my young sister told me about these and I'm so glad she did...thanks for such a wonderful product.

Repeat purchase – now on 3rd pair! I saw my first pair in France (where they're made) and searched for them. I wore my first pair for 3 summers, my second pair for 2. I've just bought my 3rd pair. SO comfortable; the support they provide (I have fairly high arches) is almost as good as my orthotics and certainly miles ahead of any other sandal I own. Highly recommended.

I love them, love them, love them! I need lots of support and these great sandals give it and look good, too. I dress them up with a nice outfit and wear them with shorts. They are the best sandal I have!

Worth every penny -
I love Zappos! I have several pairs of the Helen sandal and it is the most comfortable sandal or shoe I've ever had. I usually have 3-4 pairs at any one time and switch off. I also get tons of compliments on the look. Wonderful support. I've had trouble with plantar fasciitis and have very high arches and these are incredible. I wear them constantly. I am a 9-9.5 and by a size 39. I like the Nubuck, but if you buy a light color, spray it or be prepared for stains. You do have to avoid getting these wet. They can be re-soled by sending them back to Mephisto, but it’s expensive, and they replace everything but the leather uppers. I always just buy a new pair...

Uber-comfortable -
Really enjoying these sandals. I normally like a sleeker looking, stylish, flat sandal or shoe (love the brands Delman, Coclico, Cole Haan), but with heel pain and a little bunion developing in my 40 year old feet, I thought it wise to start taking care of them. Looked at Birkenstocks also, but too wide for my smallish feet. The narrower profile of the Helen fits the bill pretty well and doesn't look so clunky. I did order one size up as suggested.

Excellent Shoe!
I have plantar fasciitis and usually wear orthotics. However, this shoe has such a good arch support that I prefer them to my orthotics. I am a teacher and am on my feet all day! I even put them on first thing in the morning and wear them around the house like slippers.

Not only was the service wonderful and comfortable, but so is the shoe. I LIVE in my Mephistos. Had foot surgery in December and these shoes are my salvation!

Mephisto Helen -
This is my third pair of Helen. Just a couple of points for perhaps (unscientific opinion) the most comfortable shoe in the history of shoes (dating backing perhaps 13,000 or so!) Instant pure comfort even on a "Lifestepper" which I use about 80 minutes a day. Got my pair in about 24 hours from my order. I have narrow feet and that might be part of the reason I enjoy these shoes so much. They are an EXACT fit in length and width.
Careful when you first put them on as they come with a "tag" that must be cut before you wear them outside the house.

This is one of the most comfortable sandals I have ever worn. The arch support is great. I was able to wear them walking for hours with no problem on the first day.

Have enjoyed wearing Mephisto sandals - My knees tend to get irritated at times. This shoe really helps me keep the knees happy. I must have 8 to 10 pairs of this shoe in many colors. I even wear the old ones when I do yard work. They feel great on my foot.

I was given a pair by a dear friend. I have had this sandal for 6 years and now, I am sadly retiring after many miles together. This is by far and away the best sandal for arch support, style, overall fit and comfort. I love this shoe, what a pleasure to walk in and I love the overall integrity of this shoe. I will be looking for another pair, but I am finding it difficult to limit my self to one color, thank you.

The best comfort sandal on the market -
I love these sandals. They are incredibly comfortable, and provide good support for such an open style. I wear them everywhere, including as bedroom slippers. Mephistos rock.

I bought these a week before went on vacation. Most comfortable sandal I've ever worn. I have a wide foot and this works well without regard for width. This is my second pair in 3 years. Worth every penny I paid.

Love them!
I had one pair of these sandals in brown and wear them daily since I live in Florida. Because they were so comfortable, I got a pair in pink and black. They are the shoes I live in. I have problems with my arches and plantar fasciitis, but not when I wear these shoes. Can't go wrong with these.
