Love these shoes: as stylish as anything for casual and work, and comfortable even for long walks. I wore them with a suit 2 nights ago and walked over a mile in them. I like the fit even better than my regular Dansko clogs, and they look great for work. If they hold up as well as most Danskos, these will be my favorite shoes.

I have heard so many great things about Dansko shoes from people who swear by them. I have been wearing my pair for about a month and I have to say, I'm not impressed. They are not as comfortable as I had heard or expected for the price. There is good support but it wasn't as life-changing as the die hard fans had told me. It could use a bit more comfort cushion in the base and everything would be great. Since I do quite a bit of city walking, I am hopeful that the shoe will hold up structurally better than my other shoes which fall apart after several months of wear.

Dansko Theo is very comfortable shoe. I typically buy wide shoes, so that my toes have room to maneuver. Dansko has taken that into account in their design. More standard arch support than any other dress shoe I have ever tried or owned. A sign of their thought to design is the insole-which is removable-it is built with honeycomb and is a structural piece, not merely a piece of thin foam.

Zappos is always great for service. These shoes seemed a bit sloppy in my normal size so I dropped from a 45 to a 44 and all is fine. I would recommend them to anyone, especially someone who has foot pain - they've been a lifesaver for me. I am on my feet approximately 12 hours per day amd these feel good from start to finish!

I was in need of some serious shoes for while and did a search for an oxford style. My goal was for something that could be worn in both professional and social environments. I went with Dansko because of their popularity with nurses and cooks. They're on their feet all day, so I figured they know what they're buying when it comes to shoes. The European sizing has varied for me in the past, so my first pair was too large, but the second pair was perfect. I've been wearing these shoes as often as the weather permits (I'm in SoCal, so flip flops are necessary often). They've held up well in a variety of settings and environments. Just last weekend I had them polished after a good month of serious wear. The leather breaks in well, so a firm fit will become cozy after some time.

These are comfortable shoes, not the most comfortable I've ever worn, but I do believe they offer the best support in terms of gait and foot position. They are reasonably stylish and bulletproof in construction. They wrap the feet and hold them in the best possible manner for both walking and sedentary activities. Normally a size 13--the 47 (Dansko) fits like a comfortable glove in length and width. I can't say enough good about Zappos--rapid order processing and delivery, and when I made a return the process was equally expeditious and I had my money back in my account in record time. Very, VERY pleased with the shoe, the customer service, and the ordering and returns process. I'll be back for all my future shoe needs!

So I had purchased these shoes in November of 2011. These shoes have stood up to the wear and tear I put shoes through. I wear them almost every day, and where other shoes I have bought have all but fallen off my feet within 3 months, these have lasted an unprecedented 10 months! I did end up getting some insoles to provide better support for my needs, but I am very impressed with these shoes. Since these are ready to be retired, I decided to try another dansko shoe, the Travis. After wearing them for a few hours, I ended up returning them since they shredded my heels with the worst blisters I have ever had. I have since re-ordered the Theos, which were perfect from the start.

Excellent socks for long hiking and prevention of hot spots and blisters. Very well made and durable. Would highly recommend to all who hate hiking with blisters.

I love these socks. I can wear them all day, and they are so comfortable that when I take my shoes off I don't want to remove my socks and I will continue wearing them into the night. I brought them for a recent trip to China and they kept my feet totally dry through 15 hour days, whether walking through the city or hiking through the mountains. My feet felt supported and comfortably insulated from the cold, yet there was plenty of "wiggle room" in my toe area and they didn't press into my ingrown toe nails. I will likely buy more of these but so far the 4 pack has kept me going, and the socks are still good as new after each washing. They are well worth the investment!

I have found these socks to be quite warm, which is the reason I bought them. At first I found them a bit stiff/coarse, especially compared to wool socks, but have noticed that after I've had them on for a few minutes I forget about that feeling and that's fine for me. The material is quite thick and so the stitching at the toes is pronounced, which might feel funny if your shoes are not large enough. Lastly, I wear an 8 1/2-9 men's shoe but the Large socks I ordered just fit me. Overall, I am satisfied but will know better once I wear them this winter!

Individual socks in pairs were not of uniform size; some were slightly smaller in overall length than their mates. Material and comfort are top quality. Pricey, but probably worth it for the durability and feel. Zappos is a great online store to deal with.

Good sox - Drymax socks are comfortable...but slightly too bulky. I wear them as walking socks and they perform well for that function, but too bulky for casual wear.

Wonderful socks! They're a little pricey, but walking in them is like walking on air. Haven't tested getting them wet yet, so don't know how quickly they dry out.

Good socks - by no means are they magic - a little better than Smart Wool. Are they worth the price? Depends on how much you value a dollar.

Love these socks, haven't worn them hiking yet but I have been wearing with my dress boots and they are great! They make the boots fit better and keep my feet nice and warm and don't cut into my calf which is a problem for me with socks. I'm ordering more!

These are awesome. Warm, well fitted and hold up well to activity. My feet sweat a LOT and these keep my feet dry and comfortable. Wish they carried it in all the colors I need.
