Customer Reviews Allrounder by Mephisto Niro

Not good for touring - Along with other Mephisto shoes, I bought these shoes for a walking tour of Europe. Unfortunately, I find that these shoes are not ideal for long walks. There is too much room between the top of the foot and the shoe and there is not enough velcro on the heel section. These gave me blisters. I ended up wearing my good old, white Nike sneakers which cost a third of what these cost. Sigh... oh well. At least they are cute and I'll use them for around town. BTW, I also bought expensive Mephisto sandals for this trip and, like the Allrounder’s; they did not work for me. They gave me blisters and made my feet ache! Thank goodness I threw my white sneakers in my suitcase at the last minute! BTW, while in Europe we visited 8 cities and I took note of what people were wearing. I did not see any Mephisto’s but I did see mostly Merrill sandals, Clarks sandals, and Puma sneakers.

Trendy shoes - I love this shoe but unfortunately, I found I had to wear socks. The strap across the foot scratches a bit with walking. Altogether very comfortable.

LOVE THIS SHOE! Great shoe -- perfect for walking and everything else. Love the comfort and the look -- get loads of compliments wherever I go!

I've found the world's best shoe!! Not only is this shoe adorable, it's amazingly comfortable as well. There is an air pack in the heel so you can wear it all day (or all week) with no problems. The traction is second to none. I've gotten several compliments on them.

I love these shoes! I have poor feet. I have a large bunion on my right foot and a dorsal bunion on my left foot. These shoes have been very comfortable for me. So much so, I bought 3 pairs. They are adjustable so that you can make them snugger or less snug!

Great looking but runs big - This stylish walking shoe offers comfort and good looks. It is difficult to find my size (10-1/2), as many suppliers mysteriously jump from 10 to 11. I was most pleased to find this shoe in a 10-1/2, but it feels almost as large as an 11. Socks take up most of the extra room, so the size works out for me after all. Get it a half-size smaller unless you intend to wear it with socks.

All-arounder - Love the look, very comfortable and true to size. A bit of time needed to break them in, start with socks! They are a bit stiff and hot without socks. They do fit my orthotics without removing anything and love the two way adjustable straps!

I love this shoe! This is my second pair of Mephisto Allrounder. I wear them all year - very comfortable. I have a bunch of foot problems and shoe comfort is very important to me.

Comfortable from the first - I had been envious of kids' shoes with the Velcro closures so when Mephisto (almost all of my shoes are Mephisto) came up with the Allrounder, I had to try it. Instant comfort! They are also very stable, and it's impossible not to step squarely without rocking. I was worried about the dinky little strap that goes around the back of the shoe--it doesn't serve much purpose. But I've been wearing my Allrounders for several weeks now, and the strap has stayed put. I volunteer at the library, and this is the only shoe that stays comfortable for two hours pushing the cart up and down the aisles and filing books. Not even my other Mephistos did that.

Great "all around" shoe. This is my second pair of the Allrounder. I've worn my other (purple) pair so much that I thought I'd get another in my favorite shoe color---black. It's adjustable in two places, has little to no break in period, is true to size, and a good option for wearing instead of sneaker when you'd rather pass on socks.

A Tennis Shoe Alternative! Love this shoe! It has the comfort of a tennis shoe with the style of a Mary Jane. My feet have a tendency to get hot and sweaty in socks and shoes. I love the Allrounder because I can wear it without socks. I also bought it in the green/white combinations. One word of caution: I normally wear an 8 1/2. When that size came I had to ship it back for a smaller size. I ended up a whole size smaller...a 7 1/2 fits perfectly! Be sure to order a smaller size.

Comfort is the highlight - These shoes are incredibly supportive and comfortable. They look a little boxy on my 6.5 foot but comfort makes up for it. Toe box is wide.

The coolest look! Love the look, love the Velcro (wish it were the smooth kind, though), and love the adjustability. I had to reorder this in a half-size larger, because, although I love Peds, I think it's a good idea to have the option of wearing socks, including cushy ones. So these are kind of loose if I don't wear socks, but what I plan to do (I haven't worn them outside yet) is take up some room with a gel insole.

Love them- This is, I confess, my third pair of this shoe. I have them in black, red, and now brown. My sister recently bought them in the olive green color, and I was jealous. If they weren't so expensive, I would have a pair in every color. When I bought my first pair over a year ago, I was experiencing Achilles tendonitis- not anymore. They have a great fit, great support, and I love the way they look.

Great walking shoe! I love these shoes! I bought them for a backpacking trip through Northern Africa. I wanted something that will not make my feet too hot. They are light and super-comfortable to walk in. I feel like I could walk across the world in these shoes! I don't have any problems with the velcro as previous reviewers have mentioned. These shoes do run small. Normally I wear 9.5-10 and I got the 10, and they fit like a glove. So I'd recommend going up to the next whole size, if you wear a half size. I love that you can adjust the ankle strap on these shoes if you have narrow feet like I do. A great pair of shoes and well worth the price!

I Love this shoe!!! I now have 3 pairs of these shoes and I am getting ready to order the 4th! Comfortable from the get go. No break in time needed. The arch fits my foot great. I you are familiar with Helle Comforts shoes, the arch is a bit more forward than theirs. Works well for me.

Great Shoe - I loved this shoe right out of the box. I bought them in Loden green and they are very comfortable and believe me I have bad feet. I did buy a half size larger than I normally wear and was glad that I did. I would definately buy another pair.

Mephisto Nero- I received more compliments on this shoe than any I have had. Comfortable, great support, adjustable, and good looking. Love it.

Comfort and fun- Got these for a European trip. They were comfortable from day 1. Look great, easy to get off through airport security, look good with jeans or a skirt. You don't have to wear white sneakers and look like a tourist to been comfortable.

Great Shoe!! This is a great shoe. It fit right out of the box. It's size was perfect and I have small wide feet which are difficult to fit.

This is a really cute Mary Jane sneaker. The look is very striking and certainly not what you would see every day. Comfort is awesome, the Niro fits like a glove even on girls like me with the big feet (size 10). Excellent arch support, too! Mehpisto's have the best fit of any shoe.

Fabulous shoe! I love this shoe. I generally wear a black shoe, but bought the loden color, which I am finding is very versatile too.

Walked all over Europe in these!! I bought these for two trips to Europe that I took in the spring and summer. They were great on cobblestone. I didn't even break them in and had no problem thanks to the ability to adjust with the Velcro straps. I walked for miles each day in perfect comfort. They were very cute with pants and long skirts. I like the black for versatility of wear, but now I'm going to get the loden, too.

Love them and worth the price - These were expensive - but they're really cute and super comfortable. I bought big due to my pregnancy, so I can't comment on the width/size elements. These are still comfortable even after a few hours of walking. I have a high instep so the strap doesn't cover all of the velcro - the only downside

Love These! These are great. I get tons of compliments and they are super comfy - a perfect Fall shoe. I had to order a 9 as the 8.5 was not available but they fit just fine. I looked at plenty of similar less expensive styles, but they just weren't as nice as these...
