The most comfortable casual/business shoes I've ever found. I can't explain why they are so damn comfortable. I've been wearing cap verts almost exclusively for many years. There are other slippers that I like too, but I only use them for dinner and such because while they are more comfortable, they offer less support. I wear them to work (office) every day and they will serve you for many years. I have 4 pairs. Two blacks, one each of the other two colors. I think I get about 8 years out of a pair. Do the math the next time you buy a pair of mediocre boots that can last two years before the sole or boot falls apart. More comfort. Added value. Everyone is different, but if you try them on at a shoe store and feel very comfortable, you can bet you'll have the same experience as the rest of the Mephisto fans here.
