Not so great - I ordered these boots based on the online reviews that were very positive. They are just not the right boot for me. The leather was very stiff and rubbed against my ankles. They also bothered my shins when I walked. The leather is not soft and doesn't move very well. They were loose through the calf but tight on my upper calf. I wasn't at all pleased. They also look pretty plain in real life. The black leather is shiny and looks a little plastic-like. I returned these boots.

Dansko Risa boots - I like them! These boots are awesome, especially for someone like me who seems to only ever wear Danskos. Very cut, comfy and even OK to walk around in for long periods of time. I have pretty wide feet and they're just right for me (i.e. probably a little too wide if you've got a regular width foot).

Extraordinary comfort! Danskos run a little large--I wear a 9 1/2 and ordered a 41 in this boot. It fit perfectly. The boot was a little wide around the ankle, but after a few wearings, the leather is softening up and becoming more form fitting.

Wonderful! Great quality - excellent comfort! I usually go for a sexier boot with a smaller and taller heel, but Danskos comfort and great style don't make me feel I am missing out on anything. Great to travel in and walk in the city.

Dansko Risa boot - Great looking boot and comfortable too. Best part is that there is some elastic at the top of the boot so that it is not tight around the calf. I liked it so much I got both the black and the brown!

So comfy! I love these boots! For casual days, I have worn Dansko clogs for many years and was thrilled to see they had a tall, work-appropriate fashionable, non-cloggy looking boot! They are so comfortable and look great, I want to get a pair in brown, too!

Good boots - I love the look of this boot. I think in smaller sizes it is especially cute (maybe not as much in my 42) but it makes me pretty happy. They are a little wide and my feet are on the narrow side but they fit in length which is rare for me so I really can't complain. Dying to wear them with a skirt- haven't done that yet. All in all a very nice product.

Great boot - Just what I wanted and expected. Fit is great and it’s very comfortable. I went up one size and they fit great. I love the look of them. They are so worth the money. And I think I need a pair in black, too.

Stylin' low heeled boot - Not as comfortable as the Solera (please bring that back, Dansko!), but more comfortable than anything I tried in stores. The almost invisible elastic inset at top allows just what I need for give.

loved! these are great! they look great with jeans, a skirt, dress or gauchos. And, it is not too tall for someone barely 5 feet tall. they feel great too! at first, they were a bit stiff, but I wore them around the house for a week or so. now, i'm wearing them with thin socks, and i might even be able to get away with thicker wool socks.

Super cute AND comfy - I LOVE these boots! I needed a comfortable boot with a low (and 2.5" is low for me) heel for my trip to New York. I was skeptical about these at first (were they cute and funky or just ugly and clunky), but once I got home and tried these with different outfits, I was convinced. The boot shaft is very fitted and doesn't bunch up around the ankles and the style is very simple and clean. Looks great with jeans, pants, skirts and casual dresses. Also, very cute with all those colorful and patterned tights and socks that are all the rage this fall/winter. The Dansko Risa is probably my best boot buy ever! (A note on sizing: I wear a 6.5 in dress shoes and sandals and a 7 - 7.5 in boots. I purchased the 37 and they fit well, with just a little extra room).

Comfortable boot - I bought these boot for a trip to Japan. They were comfortable and still looked good with skirts. They are not as comfortable as my Dansko Sonjas but still the most comfortable stylish boot I have tried. The suede is high quality. I waterproofed my boots before I left. No rain damage occurred and they still look great.

First-Time Dansko Owner Extremely Satisfied - I have never worn a pair of Danskos before, but I heard wonderful things about them from a podiatrist and other sources. Since I only wear shoes that can support a flat foot and that are attractive, finding these shoes was a treat. They are so comfortable- my first day wearing them I had to do deliveries for work all over New York City, and my feet were no worse for it. I almost never wear heels and have never worn boots other than snow boots, and these boots were an amazing first pair. If you like the look of this boot from the website and want to wear only the most comfortable shoe, you would be ridiculous to pass these up. Don't let the price tag faze you; these shoes are worth every penny.

Dansko Risa - I like these boots. I did not find them as comfortable as any of Dansko's other shoes, but they are more comfortable than any other brand of similar looking boot I have tried.

Great shoe! I am really enjoying this shoe! I did have to order a size larger than what I normally wear. It is a great fit and extremely comfortable. I enjoy wearing with jeans as well as dressy skirts! I have always loved Dansko shoes and would buy again. A great investment!

Comfort, comfort and fits 15" calves! This boot is both extremely comfortable and beautiful. I have 15" calves and this is the only regular size pair of boots I have found that fit me. The zipper did get stuck on the leather lining behind it the first time I tried it on though, but now I watch out for that and it has not happened since. No pain after hours of standing and walking, and the suede is beautiful. The brown is a bit darker than my monitor showed it so that was a nice surprise as well. Highly recommended.

Rich suede comfortable heel height - I was going for a comfortable city walking boot with a bit of sexy heel look. They felt very comfortable when I tried them on at home, but when I put these to the test I found that after an hour of out and about shopping, the main pad of my feet were feeling sore. I can't be sure if I need to wear them in a little more or walk differently in them. I still very much like these boots and am glad I got them, I just may put an insert for pad cushioning. The heel comfort factor is fine, the boot is comfortable if it did run a little roomier than the narrow feel of my Dansko clogs. Overall I dig them.

Great Looking Boot - I thought the shoe wasn't as comfortable as I had hoped. Then again I have problems with my feet and can hardly ever find a pair of shoes that *don't* hurt.

Risa - This is the second pair of Dansko boots I've ordered, and I'm so pleased with both. It's tough to find a warm pair of boots that are dressy enough to wear with a skirt or suit. These are just right.

Great boots--Great service! These suede boots are terrific. Comfortable and stylish is hard to beat. I also appreciate Zappos great service. I first ordered a 39 because I normally wear a size 9. They arrived and were unfortunately too small. I called and was told the size 40 was available and could be sent out to me immediately. I received the next pair; they fit perfectly; then I returned, at no cost to me, the size 39 pair. It couldn't have been simpler. Thanks, Zappos!

The service provided by Zappos was a tremendous fun experience. While I dread shopping at the mall Zappos consistency and attentiveness to their customer made it all easier to shop online...just want I needed! The salesperson that assisted me made shopping at Zappos easier and her cheery attitude made it all worthwhile...I will definitely shop at Zappos again!!!! Happy Holidays to Zappos staff!
