Danskos are the best! I bought my first pair 17 years ago and they just gave out last month! This time around, I purchased a Professional in 'Cordovan Cabrio' (the same color I've had for 17 years), a Professional in 'Distressed Honey' and an XP 2.0 in Brown Pull Up. I must admit that the XP 2.0's are extremely comfortable...yes, even more comfortable than the Professionals. However, I am not in the health care profession, and alas, I must be a little more vain than I thought, because I just don't like the shape of the toe on the XP 2.0. The Professional has that perfectly round "snub-nosed" toe that is so cute with jeans and the XP 2.0 does not...it just looks a little more like an old lady shoe than the Professional.
So, the XP's are going back. Don't get me wrong...if I was on my feet for 12 hours a day the XP 2.0's would be the way to go...no questions asked! But...Dansko, why do we have to sacrifice cuteness for comfort? Can't you make the XP 2.0's as cute as the Professionals? And, in case you're thinking of purchasing a Professional, they are plenty comfortable, so go for it!
A note about size...the Cordovan Cabrio color in a 40 (the size I had for 17 years) is snug around the middle of my foot (where there's that little padded band). The Distressed Honey in a 40 is super loose and fits more like my old worn-in pair. I think I'm going to have to return the Cordovan Cabrios for a 41 and see if that helps. Like other reviewers have said, the sizing on these is all over the place! If the 41 does not work, I may keep the 40 and try to stretch that part out. It's so snug that it cuts my circulation off. The Distressed Honey pair does not do that at all, and there's a bit more room in the heel too...almost like it's a size 40.5 or a 41...hmmm...

It took a couple of returns to get the correct size. The first size 40 pair, which I normally wear in this style, was too small. So I ordered a size 41 which was way too big. I then exchanged that for another size 40 pair. This pair fits like a size 40 normally fits. I think I just got a defective size the first time around. Love this color!

I’m a 9 to 9.5 and have wider feet with high arches . The 39 felt small at first but only cause I have high arches. The top of my feet were tight at the top of the clog. I’m wearing them anyway and they are breaking in nicely. No show socks from Stance are my go to.
Also, for those of you debating on the color, it’s awesome! My work allows us to wear any color shoes so I wanted to ‘express’ myself. I was afraid the color would be too loud but they are perfect.

I wear a 41 narrow in birkenstock but this 41 worked as well. I used to wear Dansko clogs a great deal for about 5-6yrs - love them - they are still very comfortable! Note: i love clogs in general.

These shoes felt very different from each other so I ordered a second pair. The second pair had the same problem as the first only worse. I sent the second pair back and am sticking with the first pair. After awhile they warm up to your feet and these shoes seem to form to your feet and fit much better. I have had several pairs in the past and usually completely wear them out, which usually takes years.

I love this wildflower pattern! They are gorgeous.
I have worn size 37 for the past 20 years. This pair seems wider than the size 37s I have owned in the past.

These are my go-to shoes. I've worn Dansko Professional clogs for just any any occasion. I'm not a nurse, nor a chef, but these shoes keep my feet happy in any setting: the office, on the weekend and on vacation. I love that they are super easy to remove when I"m traveling and going through TSA. I've worn them walking great distances when touring Europe. This new pair did not disappoint in terms of comfort as well as style.

I like the design but I seem to be in between sizes so I had to return it. I’m usually a 37 but as I get older it seems to be getting tighter but 38 is to loose unless I wear thicker socks.

I have worn Danskos to work for decades! Best shoes if you are on your feet a lot, and the brown ombré style is super stylish. Never disappointed

I bought a similar pair that didn’t fit. Wish they had these were my second choice. They are beautiful shoes. And fit perfectly I’m pregnant and they are fine on my swollen feet

I am on my feet all day in retail and I have worn Danskos forever. They are by far the best shoes to wear in these instances. I have some that I have worn for 10 years and they are still wonderful. The choices of color and styles of leather are awesome and never disappoint. Get some now. You will love them too.

This shoe is all I expected it to be. As some of the other reviews stated, it runs a bit narrow, which means it fits me perfectly. I am also very happy with the comfort, support and the beautiful dark navy color ??

This is my third pair of Danskos. Wasn’t sure how accurate the photo was color wise, but seems right on. Fits just as expected. They’re excellent, everyday shoes.

have been wearing dansko clogs for 25 years, best work shoes ever. My feet do not hurt even after working a 12 hour day standing on concrete floors in a kitchen.

In my opinion, the professional has a wider box that the Dansko XP. These feel fantastic, no rubbing the little toes.

Loved it. Thought I could pull off this “look” I can’t, so I returned them. But I love the shoe itself. Just felt a little funny. I think the open back style would be easier to pull off and more versatile.
