MephistoMen's Hurrikan Moccasin

Great leather. I love the feel of the footbed. Construction is top notch leather with great foot cushioning. I am a larger guy and need good support. Love these shoes. My only complaint is that the 10.5 size I normally wear were too big in every way. My heel would slip out and they seemed particularly wide even in the M width. I reordered the size 10, or 44 European, and they are like heaven on my feet. These are in my opinion the best boat shoe made that I have found. I have tried most of them over the years. I tried a pair of Sperry Gold Cup recently but the leather was too soft on the inside to the point my feet would stick to them when your foot would sweat. The MEPHISTO Hurrikan feel awesome. Really awesome. I like them so much I literally look forward to putting them on in the morning. In this time of Covid-19, I can’t wait to put on my khaki shorts and slip these amazing shoes on in the morning and get to work. I commute from my bedroom to my dining room table to start my workday and get a good cup of Joe and ......”Life is Good”!

This is my fourth pair of Spinnaker/Hurrikan boat shoes. My first pair I wore primarily sailing. The second pair I wore sailing and on the street. The two current pairs I wear primarily as summer street casual shoes. Each of them conformed to the shape of my feet quickly and provided comfortable, utilitarian service. Mephisto lasts are great for my feet. I am a firm Mephisto consumer, having purchased my first pair of "walking shoes" 30 years ago (and several pairs of walking shoes, cap toes, boat shoes, sandals & GoreTex boots since). The shoes are well constructed, provide good rough service over time, and can be re-soled through the mail. Recommended.

A high quality shoe as usual from Mephisto. I’ve buy them , indeed many of them, for quality. I’d love to find an equivalent less expensive.

Cons include a high price, a slightly small fit, and slight issues with durability of the leather and the rubber sole. That being said these are my everyday shoes and they are incredibly comfortable and functional. Mephisto will refurbish any durability issues as far as I know, which is a nice touch especially considering how much they cost.

After many years of wearing my original pair it was time to freshen up with a new pair. My original pair are still wearable and look good with a fresh coat of polish. They are exceptionally well made and built to last. They look great with jeans.

I have 2 other pairs of Mephisto. Great shoes. Little large, but comfortable and well made. This pair, not so much so. I just put these back on today, and wondered why I hadn't worn them since last fall. Then I looked down and remember that after wearing them a few times, the right shoe began to roll. (no, not my foot :-). The right shoe is just poorly made.Since I had worn them, I felt I couldn't return. I will be much more careful next time. Will examine closely upon arrival. You should do the same.

I wear a pair of Mephisto Hurrikans that were made in Portugal. They are from many years ago and came in the brown Mephisto box. The inside lining and insoles are soft, like a bison-type leather and the color is a contrasting light tan. The insoles have a comfortable padding and the tongue is thick and padded. The collar of the shoe is slightly padded. They feel great. The laces look good and have a good shape to them.I just bought the same Mephisto Hurrikans a half size up, from amazon. Suprisingly, these were also made in Portugal. They came in no box, but I would assume that they are from a current batch of Mephistos, probably the current greyish box with the dark blue lid. The inside lining and insoles have an ok leather, but not the soft velvety feeling leather like in the older version. No padding at all around the collar of the shoe. The color of the inside shoe lining is similar to the hazelnut outside color of the shoe. The insoles didn't have the padding like my older ones have, instead the inside of the shoe is hard and thin; similar to a regular $75 boat shoe. That softness that they are known for was not there. The tongue was thin, the leather was like doubled, but with no padding in between. The laces are a lower grade leather or they may have just been really dry and twisted. Mephistos are known to run a half size bigger, but these were more like a full size bigger plus with the flimsy interior build, these felt really big. Online pictures of Mephisto Hurrikans look sick, but these looked dumpy. I was thinking to take pictures showing the differences between the older and newer pairs, but I just wanted to return them quickly instead. Sorry.These were a total bummer and no way in the world should anyone pay $350 for the quality of the ones I received.

nice

Excellent produit. C'est ma deuxième paire. C'est cher, mais ça en vaut la peine.

This model is wider than others I own of the same brand. Same size. Over priced compared to my other Mephisto shoes
