Long wearing, great fit!Really nice shoe. Extremely well made, but for $400 one would expect that. But the shoe ran a little large for my foot and the majority of 10s I buy are a bit tighter than I would like. These are a bit loose. Even with a thicker sock. But not large enough to warrant a smaller size. So I will have to live with them. So for the sizing I give them only 4 stars. Otherwise they are terrific.I have been wearing Mephisto shoes and sandals for 17 years. In fact, they are the only brand I wear. I bought my first pair of Sharks in Florance in 2004. After five years of hard use in Thailand for five years, I had them remanufactured in 2012.The Paco is built like a tank and light. I wear custom orthotics for a very high arch and the Paco provides the comfort of Mephisto with the lateral support I need.They are the best shoes in the world. Thank you.My husband and son do a lot of walking and will only wear these shoes. They've even mailed them away to be resoled. Not cheap, but the quality and support are good.Great product ! Shoe is well crafted and worth extra cost. Unique in that special insole and padding provide hikers, walkers and other weekend users a strong shoe with good cushion for uneven ground or older city pavement . Outstanding shoe by MEPHISTO !I've got two pair of Mephistos and they are the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn. That being said, they don't last me very long (like, 6 weeks or so) before I wear them through.I walk, a lot. Most mornings I do 8-10 miles to the coffeeshop and back home, and then I go about the rest of my day. My Mephistos are my "daily drivers" and I've got them on most of the time. If you're walking on smooth office floors or indoors, these will probably last you 50 years. But if you're out in the world, on asphalt and concrete and have arches like the McDonald's sign as do I, you'll get to know their resole program quite well.So again, these are super comfy and they have that tag on them that says to those who know "this person is serious about their shoes", but other than that I'm afraid that my wallet will prohibit me from shelling out yet another $400 on a pair of comfy, high-maintenance shoes.Qualité de fabrication impeccable
