Customer Reviews Dansko Marcelle

I have flat feet so I found the arch support too hard and uncomfortable and the strap did not support my foot enough.

I really wanted these to work? However, my foot is narrow with a narrow heel and these were way too wide. Back they go!

I am so disappointed in my Marcelles that I bought in 2016. The sole on one of them is cracking and the staples are falling out. I have a pair of the red ones I bought in 2008 which are still in great shape. This is the second pair of Danskos where the bottom has done this. Another pair I had for about five years had a heel which cracked open and fell apart. I'm not sure if the company is cutting corners on their quality in recent years, but I have pairs of Danskos I bought over a decade ago that are still in amazing shape.

This is a beautiful shoe; looks great on and works well with just about anything. The footbed was extremely comfortable too. However, the shoe was surprisingly heavy, making it feel unstable; the heaviness also made the strap very noticeable with every step. Plus, the strap has no elastic, so you have to buckle and unbuckle it every time -- which might be okay, except that the strap doesn't feel sturdy enough to last very long with that much use (and there's no chance of the shoe staying on without the strap). So, it was a no for me.

I'm not sure if my favorite pair of Dansko's were smaller than usual (purchased several yrs ago from Zappos) but these were huge! I have small feet but normal width, so a 35 or 36 is usually okay once orthodics are in the shoe. There aren't many Danskos I see in a 35 so I decided to try them. They were actually just as big as the size 36 Danskos I already have, if not bigger (see pic, the new pair is on the right)! Also, you can't remove the insole to put in orthodics. So I'm returning them. It's very difficult for me to find small size comfort shoes that I can fit orthodics into and are actually attractive. I do like the height of the platform to give me some height and make the arch not so tall and angled, so I wanted to give these a shot, but honestly, they were just too big and blocky.

I'm disappointed because these fit well but the arch is too high for me. They're uncomfortable, so they're going back.

I wanted to love these, but they were unfortunately too narrow. I don’t always require wide sizing and can often do regular. But these pinched, and I’d already sized up so a larger size isn’t an option. If dansko would make these in wide I’d try them. For now it’s back to the Algeria Paloma.

I ordered these yesterday and received them today, thanks Zappos. I’ve worn Danskos in the past but not for the past few years so I am aware about sizing up for room in the heel but these are way too big. I wear an 8 and ordered a 39 in the cordovan Cabrio leather, nice neutral color but wish they weren’t so shiny. Wanted to wear without socks and there’s no way I can keep them on my feet even with the strap. I like the look and support so I’m going to reorder in a smaller size, 38 and see how it works.

Shoe was very heavy and bulky. I returned then.

Should have got a size bigger. Too much pressure on the instep.

These are horribly made too...I’ve only had these a year and worn them maybe 10 times and they are leaning to the side...for the money these shoes cost U would think they would be made better! Going back to Ariat

great supportive shoe. fit a little wide. i have worn dansko for work for over 10 years. these marcelle and the professional styles no longer work for my feet. i"m so sad. the padding on the ball of my foot causes me pain and i now have to find the appropriate shoe for that. thanks zappos for your quick delivery.

I bought 2 pairs trying to figure out my size, but they were both too big! Very cute style and comfy, it's just hard to find your size . Returning both now

I keep trying Danskos in different styles because so many people rave about how great they are, but I just don't like them. They feel heavy on my feet, and I can't find the right size for my feet. If I order my regular size, they feel great until I start walking, then my big toe rubs the front of the shoe. If I order a size up, then they're too big and sloppy. I really wanted to love these shoes, but it just didn't work out. I prefer Alegria over Dansko.

Overall these were super cute shoes, but they seemed very large. I have several other pairs of Dansko's and these seemed to run really big. Alas back they will go. But as usual thanks to Zappos for making it so easy.

The teal leather is very dark, looked nearly black in person. Cute shoe but felt nearly a size smaller than marked. I had to return them.

I love danskos but this have an issue with this one. I couldn't love them no matter how hard I tried. They are different than the typical clog and feel much heavier on the ankle.

I am a dedicated DANSKO XP wearer for years - always my go to shoe. Thought I would mix it up and try the Marcelle for a change. I will be exchanging for the XP. Let's face it, DANSKOs are kind of clunky (they are clogs after all) but the Marcelle flattered even less. And unless you love the top of your feet, need to wear socks or hosiery.

I usually wear 38 or 38 wide, this feels too large and clunky when you lift the foot, the strap doesn't really help, I will stick with the classic clog.

I've heard a lot of good things about Dansko, so I was disappointed in this pair. I tried a size 40 and could step right out of them, no matter how I adjusted the strap, so I moved down to a 39, and I was still stepping out of them--but now the whole toe area hurt. They felt too much like clogs with too-wide heels and narrow / tight toes. Absolutely adorable, and if they fit me, I think they would be good support. Sadly, this particular style just isn't for me.

Super comfy but not the most stylish. I am looking for a pair of stylish shoes to wear with ankle pants to my retail job where I am ok my feet all day. I was hoping I could pull these off but they are better with boot cut or flare pants. Unfortunately I had to return them and I am still on the hunt for comfy stylish shoes.....

heel just too big. I used to wear danskos all the time but the newer ones seem to be narrower in the toe box. this one was ok but the heel was just so wide that it flopped off my foot - plus the sole is very hard and slippery so you slide to the end.. I think if just standing it would work but not for a lot of walking for me.

After having achilles tendon repair, finding a comfortable shoe has been a chore. Ordered these to give me not only height, but to assist in my gait with my walk. I LOVE these shoes. I had ordered the 38 originally, which did not work for me, but the 39 has been a blessing to my feet. My feet do not hurt when I get home anymore. ( I think my feet got bigger or something the older I get.. bahooey)

Doesn't fit like old Danskos. Very tight and narrow. More important. This shoe is not RED! It's burgundy. Sad to have to return it as I really wanted a pair of red Danskos.

Order these clogs hoping they would fit. I tried on the right shoe and it was perfect I was so happy. Unfortunately I tried on the left shoe and it was tight and my little toe was hitting the side. I am going to try a larger size or try the same size again and hope that there was a problem with the shoe. Bummer, they are perfect looking for me!
