Reviewed by finntastic from Buckeye, AZ on Tuesday, June 21, 2011These are half a size bigger than my Mephisto Mobils but feel narrower in forefoot (fit in heel is fine, usually a problem for me if I buy a wide shoe). Waited them to stretch a bit as the leather is not super stiff buit it never happened. Footbed is not very supportive either.

Reviewed by Ella from The Salish Sea on Sunday, February 13, 2011I rarely get a shoe that doesn't fit because my foot is not wide or narrow -- it's between a 6-1/2 and 7 so size US 7 (or euro 37) are a sure thing for me. I was very excited about these shoes. I had been looking forward to getting a pair of Mephisto's for a long time because I had always read they were incredible, but they were also very expensive -- too far out of my comfort zone. Once I saw the price of these at STP I had to go for it! I couldn't wait til they arrived -- I envisioned the best fit ever and a new favorite shoe -- a real treat for my feet. Instead I was terribly disappointed -- these shoes are not special at all. They are not as well made as Josef Siebel or Born, or even Rogue. And they are not nearly as comfortable as those either. I kept trying to break them in because I thought they'd be great for a laid back sophisticated look but once I got them stretched wide enough (they are very stiff and narrow), I found that the padding was so poor under the balls of my feet that they would quickly ache. I ended up putting them in the [...] bin. I hope somebody loves them. I would have liked to.

Reviewed by Imelda from Philadelphia, PA on Monday, November 29, 2010It's a true size 5 (some Mephisto's are large). Regret that I needed a 5.25--so I had to return them.

Reviewed by Rina from Colorado on Wednesday, May 05, 2010The shoes I got very just perfect but the sizing was a way off- they were tiny, at least a size smaller, so unfortunately, they went back...

Reviewed by Busy doc from Iowa City, IA on Saturday, December 05, 2009I am a big Mephisto fan. I bought one pair and found that they fit perfectly and can be worn all day with no discomfort. I am a busy professional and travel a lot, often taking only one pair of shoes. They are also a versatile style that can be worn to work or to a luxurious restaurant, as well as with casual clothes. They are real keepers! I eventually ordered two more pairs and am grateful to have them.

Reviewed by Jan the hygienist from Los Angeles, CA on Tuesday, November 03, 2009I purchased these shoes for work as a replacement for some others I had been wearing for over two years. I was very happy to find them on this website as Mephisto has discontinued the style. They have been so comfortable and have held up much longer than any other work shoes I have owned!

Reviewed by Old lady triathlete from Westchester, NY on Sunday, November 01, 2009This is my third pair. The first and second are still very wearable but a little tired. I am afraid they will stop making this marvelous shoe so I ordered a pair to have in my closet when the other two finally wear out. I have arthritis in my feet and these shoes are the only ones I have found that are comfortable for the entire day. I have always loved shoes, and stylish ones, so was devastated when I realized I could no longer wear cute, high-fashion footwear. These shoes have style!!!
