This is a very neat, sleek, stylish shoe. It makes large feet, like mine, look smaller! The more I wear it, the more I like it. I'm a teacher, on my feet constantly, and sometimes the tops of my toes suffer a bit after a full day. (I think some of that is from the height of the heel, which makes my sock-footed feet slip down into the toes a bit too much.) But, it's still my current favorite - I wear it will all kinds of slacks and jeans (not skirts, they just look goofy with this one).

Love these. I work in an office complex and walk to work about a mile each way. These are so awesome! Comfortable as all get out. I can walk and walk in these with no discomfort. Can't recommend them enough. I will be taking these to travel in from now on as well. These aren't sexy, but they are simple and professional looking. I wear them with Editors pants from Express and Gap work pants -- look great and my pants break nice over the Dansko Bennetts. Nice and roomy toe box. I have wide feet but these shoes don't look wide at all!

I bought (and kept) these in black and brown, size 39. I normally wear a US 9. I hope Dansko continues to make fashionable mainstream office shoes like these. I love Danskos, but they are too casual and clunky for work. I stand all day, and immediately bought these when I saw they would look great with business pants. I am also short and appreciate the 2 3/4" heel (I measured). They have a 'bump' for arch support, which is great for people with high arches, like me. My only criticism (well, I have two) is their cost, and the toe box is hard and needs to be broken in. It is very hard molded leather and rubs the tops of my toes.

I love these shoes! They are super comfortable, as Danskos always are, and a little more fashion-forward than most shoes this comfortable. They look great with pants and skirts and are very well cushioned.

These are great comfortable shoes. They are not as chunky looking as the usual Danskos. I wish they came in Navy Blue!

Amazingly comfortable even though the heel is high! These shoes have excellent arch support and work well with my high instep and wide foot.

I ordered two pairs of shoes and both were just as pictured on the website. However, I have a very sensitive area on one foot that was aggravated by a decorative seam on one pair. I called to return that pair and order another style. Zappos shipped the replacement that day without waiting for the pair that I was to ship back. I was very impressed with their customer service. The shoes are just as advertised...extremely comfortable.

Very comfortable! Heel is the perfect height for all day ware. Cute enough for slacks or a skirt and some dresses. Great shoe.

These are my favorite dress shoes of all time! A wonderful arch! I am a band director and stand all day. These look great for concerts and are comfortable for every day. They are a month old and still look absolutely brand new after wearing nearly every day for a month. I measured my foot for the size and was glad I did.

This is not my most fashionable shoe, but I have to say, I really like them. I needed a comfortable shoe that was also vegan and these shoes have worked out perfectly. I can take long walks without foot pain.

Love the shoe! I have a very narrow foot -- AAA -- and a maryjane shoe works well.

These are my new commuter shoes and they're doing great. I use them when I'm sprinting to catch the trains or climbing the stairs in my building- the strap makes it easier to wear than a pair of flats. I do usually wear them with socks. Roomy in the toe.

These shoes are very comfortable. I have a hammer toe that is somewhat irritated but there are few shoes that do not do that. These shoes look good with dress slacks and, again, is very comfortable.

This shoe was fairly comfortable, but felt a little large (tho' would probably be fine with socks). I did not like the style of this shoe, and am returning.

These shoes are not for a slender foot or small person. They are short and wide and clunky and you will look like a duck if you are petite. That being said, my feet are admittedly more like skis than feet and this situation seems to be getting worse as shoes keep getting wider. The style is cute but just not on me.

Cute shoe. Very comfortable. I purchased it for casual wear at work. The only fault I can see is that sometimes my pants get stuck in the strap if they are not long enough to cover it.

These are super comfortable and are cute flat Mary Janes. The toe actually curls up a little in the front by design, which looks a little odd with skinny jeans or leggings but they are super cute under boot cut or flared jeans. They look like real leather. They are very nice, quality looking shoes.
