I have very hard to fit feet. They are skinny at the back and wide at the front. These shoes rock. I love them and came back to buy more, but it looks like (as with all my other favs) they have discontinued this model. Arrgh.

I really love this sandal. It's cute and very comfortable. I can wear these to work and work an 8 hour day with no problem! They feel true to size. I can't wear some of the other styles with the plastic supports in the heel; they cut into my foot. But this is a fantastic shoe! I have it in the brown, too!

I had already owned a pair of these shoes, but after 10 years they finally wore out. I can\'t get along without them in the summer. They are very comfortable, dress up any outfit, yet don\'t look out of place with casual clothes. Zappos was the least expensive web outlet for them, and their free shipping and wonderful customer service made it a no risk option. The shoes, by the way, seem to be made of a less sturdy leather than they were 10 years ago, but in every other detail they have been improved.

I love, love, love these shoes. I have problems with my left foot. And for work I need to wear closed toes shoes (even in Summer), these are perfect for capris. And very good support for my feet. They fit perfectly.

Dansko does it again! The Dansko Margrete is simply fabulous, I wear them with everything from a dark wash jean doing weekend errands to summer dresses and skirts. These versatile shoes are superior in comfort and style. I love Dansko, but not all of their shoes work for me and I usually have to try them on an individual basis. There was no "break in" time with this shoe - it was absolutely comfortable out of the box. I went with my regular size 8 1/2 (39) that I wear in all Dansko styles in the rich brown and they fit perfectly. You can wear them barefoot or with socks, I like to pair mine with a cozy pair of Smartwool. My feet are on the narrow side and these fit well without being too baggy. There is some room as the heel strap isn’t adjustable, but I find that it stays on securely. I treated mine with waterproof/leather protector and find myself reaching for them regardless of the weather. I can’t wait to return to Zappos to purchase a pair in black. For people who prefer a closed back shoe, I recommend the Dansko Sally which is the same style clog with a covered back. I hope my experience aids you in your search for the perfect shoes.

Great Shoe!
2nd pair in 6 years! I work in an environment where I log mileage on a daily basis in an outdoor, multi-use environment - but I have to look polished and nice. These shoes are perfect. 1 day break in tops so the shoe stretches and forms to your foot. Take care of cleaning the shoe, and they'll last years.

Dankso Margrete -
I own three pairs of this shoe in different colors and love them. I've worn two of them year-round for a couple of years with socks in the winter and without in the summer. I do have wide feet (with bunions); and while each pair fits differently, they do fit. I just received my fourth pair of the Margretes in brown (felt I better get another pair before they're discontinued). However, the new pair is not only too tight; I couldn't even get them on. My other brown pair, which is the most comfortable, was made in Poland; these new tight ones are made elsewhere. It's not just the leather upper that's too tight, the entire foot bed (measured across the sole) is narrower. What a disappointment! Zappos, however, is great. I ordered these shoes one day and got them the next. What excellent service!

Margrete is sweet!
Everyone loves these shoes! Comments galore! True to Dansko design, they do not disappoint. I've been wearing my open toed Dansko sandals for years through every season and decided I should get a closed toes shoe. Margrete is an excellent choice for those who are looking for the Dansko fit, but not their clog. And, forgive me but even with my bunion, I get hours of comfort.

Love my Margretes!
I love these shoes! They are super cute and comfy! I wear them barefoot, with stockings or thin socks. I can wear them all day long, can't do that with my Marcelles. They look great with jeans, dress pants or skirts.

Comfy Danskos -
Runs very true to size. Immediately wore them for a lovely walk in San Francisco and they looked very good and were super comfortable!

I've just ordered three different Dansko styles and found the sizing between them confusingly different. These absolutely lovely shoes are slightly small in the size 40 that I ordered, despite the fact that Dansko's new sizing seems to require a 40 for me in some other styles. I'm puzzled by the inconsistencies in sizing that I've experienced with Dansko this year. I was a solid 39 two years ago when I started with stapled clogs, but this year seemed to need a size 40 instead. The 40 in other styles, like the Lotus, however, is waaay too big. So, you'll like this clog-sandal shoe if you like Dansko clogs, but you might have to experiment a bit to get the right size. I DO like that Dansko clog styles now have slightly thicker heels, making the ankle support a little better.

Great shoe!!
I've had this shoe for going on 6 years, and they're great!! It did take me a while to get used the arch support and the lack of cushion, but after adding the gel inserts I've been wearing them all day every day for several years now! As a hairdresser I wish they were cuter and trendier (I feel matronly), but they're worth it! The elastic has since gone out (I'll just replace it), and when my feet get wet (or sweat) the black dye still comes off on my feet. Overall, for having wide problem feet, these are great!!!

Happy As Can Be -
These shoes are great -- I did a lot of online looking around first, but in terms of a closed toe, sturdy sandal that is comfortable and looks hip and stylish, with casual skirts, slacks, or jeans/capris, these cannot be beat. Love them. Though I think short walks and errands are best in these...more than 2+ miles and I'd change shoes.

Great shoe!
As with all the Danskos I have, I had to order a larger size than I would with other shoes. I normally wear a 10, and I ordered the size 41 which corresponds to a 10.5-11. This shoe has excellent arch support and I would highly recommend it to anyone with plantar fasciitis (which I have) and/or anyone who is on their feet all day. My toes have plenty of room however the leather that is beneath the toe bed is pretty snug across my foot. I don't have especially wide feet either; my foot is an average width. This is something I have encountered with other Danskos as well. Based on past experience I am confident that once I break them in they will feel perfect. The shoe is cute looking too, I might order other colors one of these days. Overall, I recommend this shoe highly. Also, Zappos is wonderful. I can't imagine buying my shoes elsewhere anymore.

I have this pair in two colors. I've had them for awhile. Extremely comfy, unlike SOME Danskos. However, I find that the look is a little dowdy/clunky, and I don't like seeing the staples. That said, my feet are still happy at the end of the day.

My favorite shoes ever!
I have these shoes in red and they're my favorite shoes ever. I think I've been subconsciously buying grey, black, and red clothes in the last few years just so I can wear them more often! I have a REALLY high arch and so I had to go to my local Dansko dealer and have them stretched a bit and have a couple more holes punched into the straps, but after that they fit like a dream right away with minimal "breaking in". I get compliments on them almost every time I wear them.

Dansko Margrete -
These are fast becoming my favorite shoes. I can't believe how many compliments I've received, even from strangers. I like the way they make my size 9 feet actually look smaller!!

Finally my old pair bought the farm -
I love these shoes. I recently ordered my second pair. My first pair lasted for years (with a few replacements of the elastic on the strap); however, they were looking pretty lived in. I like the look of these because they are not too mainstream but don't look like bozo shoes either.

Margrete Shoes -
I love these shoes. I have them in brown and black. They go with everything and I can wear them in the summer without socks or in the winter with socks/tights. The straps make them even better than the regular clogs because they don't slip in the heel at all. I actually walk about 2 miles per day in them and have never had any problem with comfort or support. Plus, they are super cute!

Great spring alternative to clogs -
I ordered these shoes to wear during a week-long field trip to D.C. that involves extensive daily walking. I normally wear my Dansko clogs (which I love) but wanted to try these since it was going to be warm out. I wore them for two consecutive days and thought they were great. They were very comfortable, but I needed to place a few Band-Aids where the seams chafed my skin by the end of the first day. I guess they require a little breaking in since I choose to wear them barefoot. Hopefully I can lose the Band-Aids over time. I recommend them as a dressier alternative to sneakers and to anyone who likes Dansko clogs.

Great work shoes!
I finally wore out my first pair of Margrete’s and immediately had to order a replacement pair. They are that perfect! They are just as comfortable as my other Dansko clogs, but the style looks much better with capris and skirts. I would recommend them to anyone who works on their feet all day.

I love these shoes!
Out of all my Dansko shoes (I have about 5 styles) this is by far my favorite style. They look great with pants or a skirt and they're incredibly comfortable. For some reason the clasp rubbed my foot the first 3 or 4 times that I wore the black pair (didn't happen with the brown pair) but after that they were fine.
