These are too high and stiff feeling for me. I am not graceful enough to wear them. The wide is very wide. They are super cute. Not for me though.

I had to return the Stone Waxy Burnished pair that I ordered. They do not look like the shoes in the picture. The color was different and they have texture to them that was hard for me to see on line. Also, they seemed to run big, as my foot floated all around in them.

LOVED these, and was sick that they did not fit. Really hated to send it back.

I ordered several pairs of this identical shoe a year ago, now when I order the same size, they are just too big. I've purchased four pairs in the hopes that there would be enough variation and I'd find the right fit, but to no avail. The 38s are too small and the 39s too big.

I don’t know but my knees have been hurting since I got these. My feet are now hurting to. This is very disappointing considering they are perfect slip on and easy to clean but having lots of discomfort

Not sure what has changed... I bought my usual size to replace ones that were several years old and I had to retire due to wear. These new ones are comfy to stand in, and have more toe room than my last, which is good because I am not squishing my big toe. But they keep falling off my feet when I walk. I wish I had the others to compare because I suspect the foot of the new shoe is further forward, meaning they don't cover as much of the top of my foot, so the space is larger and my foot falls out. If I don't walk carefully, the whole shoe flips right off my foot - both sides! I pray that with some wear they'll stick inside better. But it's annoying.

I wear a 12 wide so that is what I purchased. Unfortunately, I couldn't get half of my foot into the shoe. Returned them. I will need to try and see if I can get a similar shoe in a men's 11 wide. the design was attractive though.

These were at least a full size too big and the coloring was much more yellow than the product image depicts. If they fit properly, I can tell that the comfort and support would be excellent.

I'm a size 11 and have been wearing 41 in Dansko for a long time. But the 41 in these were huge, flopping off my feet, and the 40 was too small. Have a coworker who also bought the honey color and said the same thing. So don't know if it's just this color, or the sizing has changed. Sad, because I need a new pair and am in love with the honey distressed color.

I want to love Danskos, I really do. They're just not comfortable for me. I have a high arch and these cut into the top of my foot (leaving a mark) every time I wore them. I don't mind the style of the shoe so much -yes it's clunky but I think that's to be expected. I marked these low for "style" primarily because of the color. I expected a true grey and these are much more brown than grey. I know many swear by Danskos so maybe they'll work for you - they just don't for me.

I tried on a black pair same size 38, but the fit was not the same. This pair was uncomfortable and not as cushioned. They also seemed tighter. I mainly purchased this because of the color, but it was way too yellow for me, plus the tips of the shoes were darker. Weird. On the dansko site, the honey distressed was more of a brown hue which was what caught my eye. Unfortunately, I had to return them.

I have worn Dansko's for more than 10 yrs. First time ordering a pair on line. After much anticipation, my clogs arrived in 2 different sizes: Left 39, as ordered, the right in a 38...too small to try to wear. I still love Dansko's but will NOT purchase on line again. PS: Was a Clearance item...NO RETURNS!

I was looking for shoes for work where I'm on my feet for hours. I know these shoes work for a lot of people, but they were not comfortable for me. Also, I seem to be between two sixes so this was a bit loose on me. I had to return.

Not the same fit as the Dansko Professional clogs I have worn and loved for many years! I am heart broken - these were my FAVORITES! I have them in a lot of colors - all in the size I ordered. These are too big and I'm I think the next size down will be too small. :-(

These are really cute, a little bit of patent in the pattern. I found them too stiff and rub my feet uncomfortably. I have worn several Dansko styles in the past but this one was not as comfortable. Will be returning them. Thanks Zappos for the return shipping!

I have been wearing Danskos for 12 years, always a size 39 and I have never had to "break in" my clogs. I bought a pair when I was returning to work after 4 years off. Right away I knew something was different/wrong about the shoes. They felt harder and stiffer than all my previous Danskos, and they gave me blisters, which was a shock and an immense disappointment. I found out about Dansko branching off from its previous business relationship with S and that Danskos are now made "somewhere else". Well, somebody downgraded the materials. So sad, Dansko, and so disappointed that I can't put my trust in this company to provide the support/comfort that I need as a nurse. $125 wasted. I bought the XPs in a 39 and they were huge! I could barely keep them on while walking. Guess I'll try something else...

If you want to twist or break your ankle, buy these! I have owned five pairs and kept hoping that I wouldn't sprain my ankle again but alas I have surrendered, no more! I have switched to the Alegria Seville and will never look back. I am a nurse in the operating room and am very physically active so Danskos are not the way to go if you have a similar job. Please take heed or I'll be seeing you in surgery to fix your ankle!

I've heard so many good things about these shoes...I work in a lab and wanted to love these so much. Unfortunately they are so uncomfortable! They don't really bend at all, so my feet are terribly sore at the end of the day, and my feet and legs are really swollen. I've gone back to tennis shoes.

I had purchased my first pair of Dansko shoes about two years ago. I had got the patent leather ones they ended up splitting at bend of the foot. I contacted Dansko they very generously replaced them with a new pair. My second pair the toe has fallen right off. I'm very sad because I really like the way they fit. Unfortunately I won't be buying any more.

The fit of Dansko shoes has apparently changed. The sizing doesn't seem to be consistent and the parameters of the shoe don't seem to be symmetrical when on the foot. This shoe rubbed me in a spot that made them impossible to wear and still get through my 12-14 hour shifts. This is the second pair to have a problem. Looks like I get the tedious task of finding a different brand of shoe for work. That makes me truly not happy.

I have a similar pair of Danskos and was looking to replace them. Checking inside the shoe, I see that my size 42 professionals were made in China in 2010. I love them. I bought another pair immediately after purchasing the original pair. This new shoe looks to be the same shape -- but the toe box is shallower? tighter at any rate. I am returning them and wish that more info were given like that inside the Dansko shoes (serial no, date made, etc). I recommend Danskos to everyone. I may have to rethink that!

Dansko Nubuck bone Professional shoe, bone color only -
This was my 5th pair of Dansko stapled clogs. The Nubuck bone was so tight, with no room at all. I had blisters on both feet. I returned them after wearing them one time. I replaced them with the Professional cordovan cabrio. True to size. I wear a size 8 so I order them in size 39 as well as the Dansko Sonja, not a size smaller but the same as the professional. Zappos sent me out a new pair without receiving my return first and did not charge me a second time on my charge card, trusting me to return the bad pair. Fabulous company I will only buy from Zappos from now on. Thank you,
Tammy RN
