    As I walk 8 hours a day, I need something that would support both leg and back (and of cause, my feet). This shoe does that. I have no fatigue what so ever in my feet after 8 hours so I really recommend this shoe to anyone who first look at their comfort than fashion.

    I have been familiar with Dansko shoes for years, but I've not had a pair for a long time. I needed something comfortable, with support, good for my back, easy to take on and off on the plane, good for running through the airport, and for walking, and comfortable enough to wear all day. I gave these a try and had seen the black patent ones on someone and really thought they looked great, so I ordered these and the Petrol clogs. I couldn't be happier. They are so comfortable and such a pretty color! I get lots of compliments on them. I wear a 7 1/2 to 8 so I ordered the 8 and they fit perfectly. They have a bit of slip to them (as there should be) while wearing barefoot and with thin socks, but will be able to also wear thicker socks in winter. I highly recommend them. You have to order the correct size tho or they will not be comfortable and they take a bit to break in, but once they do, they're great.

    I have been an operating room nurse for 24 years. I am on my feet all day long. I used to have tremendous heel and arch pain until I started wearing the Dansko professional clog. Now I stand all day without any pain. My last pair lasted 7 years! I also like that shoes are slip resistant, and there are a lot of stuff to slip on in the OR! My favorite shoe to work in! All the nurses wear them now.

    Typical Dansko clog, but unusual color! Fits fine, but due to my foot problems I had to stretch the right shoe a bit; if you haven’t worn Dansko clogs, you may find them a bit heavy and stiff. Good arch support and good support in general. I am still getting used to wearing clogs but find them comfortable when I do.

    My niece in Iowa orders from Zappo\'s quite a bit. She picked out a pair of shoes she wanted and sent me the link. I placed the order at 1 p.m. during a weekday, online, in Ohio, put the charge on my credit card, paid no shipping, and was amazed to track it on the UPS tracker and see it delivered the following morning to her apartment at 10:00 a.m. I was quite impressed with the speedy delivery, and my niece loves her Dansko shoes to go with her nursing uniform.

    from Virginia

    So disappointed! I love my one pair of Dansko clogs. I only have one pair, because I have to have a narrow clog and they are so limited in their selection. I thought I'd try the regular width, so first I tried a 40 ( I usually wear the Pro in 40 narrow). The 40 was way too big, so I ordered a 39 hoping that would do the trick. It was too small, so truly I must have the 40 narrow. I wish that Dansko would bring out more colors in the narrow! I did love the claret patent and the blue python patent, but sadly neither of those fun colors fit me. I do love Danskos though!

    This is my first closed back Danskos, I have always worn their clogs, so I was not sure if I would like them. I love them! I ordered the petrol and gets compliments almost every day at work. As a nursing supervisor, I am on my feet 12-14 hours a day and have plantar fasciitis. The support they offer is wonderful. I will be ordering myself another pair (petrol) as they are unique and will be great to wear with jeans. Thank you Zappos for your great customer service!

    My third pair of Danskos - love them all! Super comfortable, super supportive (I’ve been suffering from plantar fasciitis for a couple of years, but my feet aren’t sore at the end of a day with these on), and I get lots of compliments on the patent leather pair.

    This is my second pair of Dansko. They are great shoes for work. The difference is that at the end of the day walking and working in these shoes, there is no associated back or feet pain. The shoes provide the necessary support for nurse’s feet.

    I love my Dankos. They were a perfect fit, I followed the sizing chart and ordered size 38 - a seven and a half is my true size. I can wear a thick or thin sock, the large toe box is what I need and I will order more!

    If love were a shoe, it would be a Dansko clog. These are the most comfortable, wonderful shoes ever made. Comfortable and cute--these look great with jeans, dress pants, and skirts. I feel a little like Minnie Mouse wearing these with skirts, but it is worth it. I wish I could wear these everyday!

    I have a really high instep, which is great for wearing heels, but bad for flats. The minute I put these on, my feet fell in love. The arch support is incredible! I plan on walking these babies all over Paris. The navy patent is a true navy (ie: won't come across as black) and looks awesome on. It looks fairly stylish because of the shine and unusual color.
