Too small! I was so looking forward to getting these shoes... my friends all raved about them so I ordered a pair, along with several other Danskos. None of them fit! I wear a women's size 12 in every other brand - actually some 11's -- but I couldn't even get the Danskos on my foot. Has anyone else had this problem?

NOT ALL THEY ARE CRACKED UP TO BE - Everyone told me to get these for work that they are the best comfort shoe. After having to send back two pairs until I got the size right, (I think I finally got the right size) and having to pay a small fortune they took forever to break in, have had them a year now and still only wear them when I have too. Not my favorites by any means. I am 5'9", they make me even taller, they are very clunky and after a year I think they look worn and I only wear them to work in a salon. Can't understand what all the fuss is over these clogs???

Sadly Disappointed - I have heard tons of women rave about Dansko shoes and how comfortable they are. However, I am sadly disappointed. I find them extremely uncomfortable. They're also difficult to walk in. I find that I twist my ankles frequently. I guess I’m just the exception to the rule with this shoe.

Edges tight - I love Dansko's and have 4 other pairs. I wore these yesterday again and they are still snug around the edges. I noticed a cramped feeling in the toe areas of both shoes. I would have thought this shoe would have a little "give" in it after wearing it many times but it’s still kinda tight. A larger size and my heel would come out when I walk. I love the backless and fabric Dansko's much better.

Dansko Professional Shoes - I wear size 10. Shoe states 43 equivalent to size 12. Still feels tight. Sizing very unpredictable.

Dansko Professional - I have heard fabulous things about this shoe. However, they are not comfortable for me. They are too tight across the top of my foot and make indentations soon after standing for an hour or two. I am hoping they will eventually stretch enough to be comfortable because I paid a lot of money for them and they are really cute. Make my size 11 foot look small!

These shoes came highly recommended by my co-workers but I'm not that happy with them. They are a very hard walk...no cushion at all. I've turned my ankle several times in them and luckily have not broken it yet. Seem to be highly durable but not worth the money in terms of comfort/safety.

"Please take them off!" I was truly bummed to find out that, contrary to what I had read, these do not stretch out very well. I even tried taking them to a store to have them stretched for me. Little improvement. The tops of my feet beg me to remove the shoes after just 2-4 hours, not to mention my toes and sides of my feet. My back and knees feel great while I wear them, but my feet feel like they are going to fall off. I start getting clumsy in them as my feet rebel against having them on. These are way too expensive to take a chance, in my opinion. If you try them on at a store, ask for a brand new pair so you won't be trying on stretched out ones. Also, mine yellowed very quickly. I know not all of them do that, but mine did. Hopefully, I can try to give them to some young college student, willing to wait the months it seems to take to have them fit better.

KILLER OF A SHOE - Yes, looks great but kill my feet by the end of the day. Go limping out of work after 9 hours on my feet on cement floors. Have been wearing them only 3 weeks and still waiting for them to stretch. Should have bought half size bigger but they look so great on the foot while sitting. Have a torn ligament in left ankle and now don't know what hurts worse, the ankle or the shoes.

Not for wide feet - I purchased these since everyone raved about them. I have wide feet, and these were not the shoes for me. I had to return them. There is room in the toe box, but not width wise. They were rubbing against the inner ball of my foot. My feet also pronate, so the high arch was very uncomfortable. I was disappointed. Too bad they don't come in wide with a flatter arch, or they would've been perfect for me.

Dansko Professional - Several doctors, podiatrists and nurses in the O.R where I work wear these shoes and highly recommended them, so I bought a pair. They have never been very comfortable for me since I started wearing them a year ago. They seemed to fit perfectly during initial wear but stretched out causing my feet to slip forward with my toes constantly hitting the front of the shoe. I am also developing a bunion which I attribute to the aforementioned slippage. (I wear a size 7 1/2 and bought a size 38. A colleague of mine buys a size smaller than recommended for her true size and has no problems.) The shoes are very sturdy however, and provide incredible support and shock absorption. I have also had a significant decrease in back pain while wearing these shoes.

I ALWAYS wear a size 40 in Dansko and this clog for some reason was humungous, they nearly fit my husband, who wears a size 43. In going to try a size down just because I love the print so much but I’m worried the length will be too short.

The outer layer on these leather clogs is very prone to scratching and scuffing. A brand new pair worn inside for an hour picked up enough scuffing to discolor the toe. Zappos could offer no help with polish or any other remedy. I returned. Also, size seemed snugger than other Dansko shoes.

The size is fine but the material is too stiff. I was not expecting them to be gllittered. From the photo I expected them to be shades of brown and tan.

I LOVED the shoe, but it was too wide. I find Sanita brand fits well but this shoe was too cute not to try. Dansko was my go-to brand until they seemed to get wider and wider. Sad to return these beauties.

Please make 44 and up in fun colors!! It’s a unisex world Dansko! This was pitched as a women’s 12. Nope. Need a 44.

The finish looks off. Doesn't look like quality. Left shoe with blemish, as if it was spray painted on pale leather to make it darker. Would like to exchange for darker color.

The size 40 (US sizes 9.5-10) was too big and the size 39 (US size 8.5-9.0) too small. Disappointing there is no in-between size because I love the shoe.

Ok i've ordered two pairs. I am usually a 38 in Dansko, but that was too big. The 37 was too tight. Neither felt wide and my feet normally also fit into regular width, although tight. I could barely get my feet into both of these pairs. Such a bummer because they're pretty cute.

Wide Fit -- creates a wider heel? not sure what was going on there, but the length felt longer in the wide. I'm otherwise a classic 38 in Danskos. Will try a 37 Wide and see if that works better. Otherwise cute and cloggy. Just what I wanted.
