I ordered a pair of Mephisto Barracuda shoes from Shoes International. The service was very good; the shoes arrived in a few days. I particularly liked to friendly compliments slip in the box signed by one of the sales team. The shoes are very comfortable and waterproof. I wear them daily for long dog walks through the countryside and they have not let water in. They are a little heavier than I expected, but I have got used to this. The size is a little generous, but I have found that wearing a pair of extra socks gives a perfect fit. This is my first purchase of Mephisto shoes and I am sure that I will by another, different pair in the near future. I will certainly look at the Shoes international website.
