Bravely loving my white Mephisto’s - I was hesitant to order a white shoe with a white footbed, but I am loving them. I make sure I have clean feet before wearing & so far the white footbed is staying white and does not ‘bleed’ onto my feet when they sweat. I’m sure over time it will darken but it looks much nicer with the white bed with the white patent upper. A wee less arch than the ‘Helen’ for some reason, but not enough to bother my ‘needy’ arches. The first time I wore them all day & my feet felt fine, no break in period with this one. I would highly recommend them. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 on comfort only because of the wee difference in the arch compared to the ‘Helen’. The ‘thong’ part is very comfortable, not irritating at all between my toes. I’m glad Mephisto is coming out with new styles as they seem to be the best shoe for my foot needs. Wish they weren't so expensive but they do last for years.

Mephisto, Hale and Helen sandals have the best arch support, due to my neroropthy they are the only brand/style I can wear. Highly recommend because we all need the best support for our feet.

This shoe has a wonderful footbed. The strap across the instep is a bit loose even with adjustment and I have a high instep but I think it will break in okay. This shoe is quite pricey. Order up a size.

So glad Mephisto brought back this style, different name, same design. So comfortable, no break-in time, can wear them all day with no problems.

Love these thongs! They are super cute and the piece between your toes is soft and easy to wear. I've never worn a Mephisto that wasn't really comfortable and these don't let you down. They have a similar look to the classic Birkenstock thongs but with the softly cushioned Mephisto footbed. awesome!

Absolutely the BEST shoe ever made!!! I have owned at least 6 pairs of these wonderfully comfortable shoes. They are like walking on angel petals, the look is so chic, and the comfort better than ever!! Tennis people, this is your shoe! After a hard match, throw off those tennis shoes and put on your Hale's! Formally Hado's!
