Customer Reviews Dansko Sam

I love these shoes. I bought them a size larger and they are perfect. As some of the other reviewers stated, they do not cut into the top of my foot. They are stylish and comfy. My feet run wide and I was surprised at how well these fit. I highly recommend them.

These run short and are narrower than other danskos. The top part of the dream digs into my skin. Super cute though, but they don't make danskos the way they used to. This is the fourth pair I've returned. I give up.

I have ordered this shoe THREE TIMES, I believe. Each time, there has been scratches, scuffs, or ratty looking straps. If I'm paying this much for a shoe, I want them perfect. I want them wrapped, not obviously been returned, thrown in a plain brown box, and sent to me. I WANT these shoes. Zappos, I love you. C'mon.

I started a new job in March and came home every night for a week nearly weeping from how much my feet hurt...in sneakers! Dansko was on my short list to examine as an alternative when I got a great tip from a nurse I met: the heel of the clogs are wide and you're likely to step out of them. She even said she'd known women who fractured ankles in the clogs. When I saw this version with the snug ankle straps I thought it was a great solution to my concerns. I was right, these Dansko's are amazing! They stay snugly on my feet, they are comfortable enough to wear 8-10 hours a day running around a winery and they don't look half bad. I have the black, they aren't super stylish, but nice, and so so comfortable. No more crying, no more epsom salt foot baths, no more elevated legs every night, these are exactly what I needed. I highly recommend them!

I bought the Ocean color pair and loved it so much, I decided to order another one in Sand Dollar also. This one looks a lot lighter in color in person and frankly looks very very orthopedic and granny looking in a bad way. Very comfortable but not keen on looking older.

I have the standard Dansko clogs, and these feel very similar. Instant comfort, no breaking in period. Much more comfortable on the top of the foot than the other Dansko brand maryjane styles. Love them for being on my feet all day! Worth the money for sure. I'm a size 8-8.5 and I ordered a 39.

I love these clogs! I wear a size 8.5-9 shoe, and I have narrow long feet. I sized up based on the reviews to size 40. The length feels right, but the top of the shoe and the strap feel big. They’re still very comfortable and I love them, but I have to tighten the strap all the way. There’s a lot of space in the top of the shoe but they don’t rub or give me blisters. I don’t think the 39 would be long enough, and I wish there was an in between option, but I’m still very happy with them. These seem like they’d be good for someone with wide feet. The red color is so lovely and goes with a surprising wide variety of outfits.

Just have to add that The Dansko Sam has a different kind of material under the foot than the usual Dansko. The material under the Dansko Sam is like a faux suade, so I'm not sure how foot smell will hold up by the end of the day when not wearing socks or other kind of stocking. I do wish the Dansko Sam was made with something that's wasn't faux suade under the foot. But other than this, it's a lovely shoe.

These shoes are the best. So comfortable, great color, and cute.

The color is WAY off from pictures. Horrible putty color not tan.

I purchased these in black. I had two foot surgeries on my right foot in October 2011. Since then I have to buy more expensive, well made and podiatrist approved shoes. I have been wearing Merrell Encore Ice (slide on sheepskin lined clogs) and Aetrex Berry slides since I could only slide my foot straight in without bending the toes. This was my first "real shoe" in months. The sole is not as comfortable as I had hoped. It is quite firm, almost hard, but provides great stability. The slight rocker bottom is a must for me. I am able to keep the shoes on all day and walk around, however my right foot is a bit swollen by the end of the day. Receive many compliments on the style from people who know I have to wear special shoes now. I am actually planning to buy another pair/color for spring/summer. I wear them with my skirt suits and jeans so quite a flexible style. The leather is good quality and the heel height is perfect since I am 5'8.75" tall. I wear between a 9 and 9.5, so I had to buy the 9.5-10. Fortunately, they fit more like a 9.5 than a 10.

If you have wide feet, beware of this style. I have worn Danskos for many years, and the fit has always been perfect right out of the box. Not with these. My feet were killing me within minutes of putting them on. They feel much narrower than other Danskos I have worn. Too bad, as the style is cute.

These are great shoes. I am a true size 8 and prefer the size 39. Super comfy as I expected! So happy with this purchase. Totally feminine and stylish way to wear a clog.

I have four pairs of Danskos, all size 39 (I am a size 8.5). These are SHORT. My toes touched the end. I exchanged for a 40, and they fit like a 39. Width is normal in both sizes. Some breaking in will be required for the toe box, where the edge of the leather meets the top of the foot. Otherwise, very comfortable and stable. A bit of height without the pain of a heel.

These shoes are just what I needed. I have severe arthritis in my big toe joints and I had no pain at all when wearing them.

I bought these at a local store today (sorry, Zappos, but I was there and could walk out with them). Finally, a pair of Dansko MaryJanes that don't cut across the front! I'm so happy.

I love these shoes. I am a size 8 to 8 1/2 depending on the shoe, but I have very wide feet with bunions. This shoe did not come in a wide, so I purchase size 39, and it a great fit. If a Dansko shoe come support in wide, I buy the 38.

Very cute and extremely comfortable and versatile. I just love these shoes. I'm between a 37 and 38 and took advice to go larger, and the 38 fits like it was made for my feet.

Am very happy with these shoes. They fit perfectly, do not cut into the upper part of either foot despite standing for long periods. I have a difficult time finding shoes that a accommodate bunions and bent toes but these are perfect. I ordered size 39 even though I wear a 38 in some other shoes based on a couple reviews.

Size up! I ordered my normal size 37 and I could not get my foot into the front part of the shoe. I ordered a 38 and they now fit. My foot is wide and would not fit into the 37. They are very comfortable and cute!

I love these shoes. I was a bit hesitant to buy Danskos again because the last pair I bought had such hard leather. I checked the other reviews and they commented how soft the leather is so I took a chance (hoping to find a pair like an old pair of Danskos that I love and still wear). These were so wonderful that I went and bought another color a week later. They're so cute too and will be great this summer with skirts or shorts.

Cute, comfortable and they don't dig into the top of my foot. They stabilize my walking...can't ask for more than that!

I absolutely love these shoes! I have the sand and black and I want the ocean. They feel wonderful. I have about 30 pairs of Dansko shoes and I think these are the best. A big thanks also goes to zappos.

I live in Danskos because of heel spurs and a back problem they are the only shoe that actually make the heel spur pain go away. This shoe is so comfortable and the color is so pretty goes well with jeans/skirts. In comparison to the clogs it's a much lighter weight shoe also which will make it perfect for summer.

Run a size larger than all of the other size 40 Danskos (including Mary Janes) that I own. I thought they were just wide at first, but 39's are great!
