Customer Reviews Dansko Professional

Comfortable "All Purpose" Shoe! I was looking for a shoe that I could wear almost anywhere and that would be warm and comfortable for winter wear. Dankso's Professional has fit the bill. I haven't worn any other shoe this winter (even to church!). Just recently I got into some deep mud, which DIDN'T seep inside, and they cleaned up good as new afterwards with a wet paper towel.

Excellent times three! Dansko's and Zappo's - After having Planter faciitis surgery on both feet with still no positive result with the left foot, I find I can literally walk if not run without pain. I too am on my feet with concrete floor 8 hrs. each day for work. The shoe helps my posture and places the pressure more to the front and off the heel. Feels like I am walking on a pillow, they are so comfortable. This is my second pair and I will not look elsewhere when it comes to work shoes. Also Zappos's on line was excellent in shipping and delivery. Within a few days I had my shoes, free shipping. They are well worth every penny. The shoes saved my feet and job. I love the comfort and style. Soo cute!!! and comfy. Trust me, you won't be disappointed if you have problem feet. I cannot say enough good. Keep making them I have 15 more years of work to go.... Thank you Dansko's and Zappo's Mary

These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever bought. After wearing them for 8 hours at work I dont have to rush home and take them off. They are attractive and durable. I highly recommend them to anyone who is on their feet for any length of time.

Dansko Professional - I work at two different retail locations. I'm on my feet the whole day. I realize the importance of having a better quality shoe due do getting older and keeping my legs and feet looking more attractive. This shoe is awesome and I will buy more and tell everyone I know about them and how wonderful Zappos is.

these professionals are fine as always but this pair had inner sole on one glued higher than other which tilted my gait. I chose 2 pairs of the XP2 because are higher heel and have removable insoles. I chose the Prof for the attractive pattern )

Similar to other reviews, shoe fit is at least a half to whole size large larger. Otherwise beautiful shoe!

It fit great with thick socks but as I wanted to wear them with nicer looking outfits they didn’t work. I could barely hobble around in them in regular socks.

Of all my Dansko clogs, these took the longest to break in (because the material is really stiff), and they are still a little tighter and more narrow than the others. I love the way they look and wear them a lot because of that, but I would recommend going up a size in these, unless you have narrow feet.

I previously tried the 37 which was miles too big. The size 36 fit nicely with the exception of the toe box which was very tight. Could be the patent leather is just a little less forgiving than other softer leathers. I’m so disappointed because this is such a beautiful print and impeccable made. I’m just too old to wear shoes that hurt!

Felt to small had to send back

I have multiple Dansko Professionals and these did not disappoint in quality or fit. However, the color, distressed honey, just wasn't for me.

Dansko is so inconsistent. For several years I couldn’t wear them at all because my instep is too high and they were putting too much pressure on the top of my foot. Now they are much better (still some pressure but not painful like it used to be). I have two newer pairs like this (one from 2023 and one from 2024) and the 2023 pair is narrower and the top of the shoe is higher than the 2024. The inside of the 2024 shoe is lined with polyester whereas my 2023 pair is not. Not sure if my feet will be able to breathe... we’ll see. If you already own Dansko shoes, check the date stamped inside them to see when and where they were made so you can compare pairs.

The color of the honey distressed clogs was much lighter than pictured when they actually arrived but the toe on the end was a very dark brown. It was too big of a contrast.

Overall this is a beautiful shoe, but the mixed sizing (8.5-9) didn't work for me. It seemed like a 9, so I have to return it.

The fit was fine but the pronounced blue on the toe was extreme

The fit was great for wearing in my apartment. I didn't know until I went out a few days later that they would slip up and down on the street and knew that I couldn't return them once I had worn them outside. I have to wear shoes at home and these are the ones I wear very comfortably. These are 42 W and the other Dansko clogs I have are 42 medium (thought they were getting a little cramped in the toes). Perhaps with the right heavy socks I could wear them outside.

Fit and size was good, high arch support

Love the style and fit. Sadly, this pair/style had very slippery soles. I realize I could sand them or add non-slip materials. I decided instead to stick to my comfy, non-slip sneakers. I'm in my 70's. Can't chance a fall. Too bad tho', I love the look. Once had a pair of Danskos that lasted over 20 years. I was in my early 50's then. Not afraid to slip. LOL. Thank goodness for Zappos easy-peasy returns!

These fit great, but the leather is very oddly textured, unlike the last pair I had. It makes the color look very strange, because I ordered the tan. So the “top” of the pebbly texture is dark and the bottom is almost white. Last pair, same color, much smoother. Returning and ordering again hopefully to get a nicer finish. Need to love them since I wear them daily at work. These shoes are simply the best for working in healthcare and in your feet all day!

The size felt too large and one size down was too small so I had to return both. I loved the look and feel of the shoe but unfortunately, the fit will not work for me.

shoes feel fine, little tight at first but do stretch out after wearing. Danskos are one of the few shoes that I can teach all day in and not have a back ache or my feet hurt.

I'm usually an 8.5 or 39 European - ultimately went with the 38 because I plan to just wear thin socks. They do feel like they've stretched a tiny bit. If you plan to wear in winter and are a half size I'd get the next size up. The 39 I could easily kick off which felt to insecure for stairs etc., and while the 38 is a little snug it's getting looser by the day so I think I'll be ok. My heel spur and other issues are happier in these than sneakers so it's worth the cash money in my opinion to have supportive, cute-ish work shoes. I got the honey distresssed and they look great with jeans, slacks, or even some skirts.

I am so happy to be back in Dansko clogs. They are the best for my feet and back. My posture is really improved as well. And! The plantar fasciitis that was digging me has been relieved! Yay I was disappointed that the bottom is plastic, not real wood as in the past. It doesn’t affect the comfort or support but it doesn’t seem too environmentally friendly- and that’s a surprise in 2022. I highly recommend these clogs to any nurse or medical professional on their feet a lot.

They are high quality and exactly what I wanted. I wear a size 8 1/2 to 9 so I ordered a 39. The top is a little tight across my foot, but they will loosen with some wear.
