Customer Reviews Dansko Margrete

Love 'em! They are comfortable and adorable. No breaking-in time, they are the best!

Love these shoes - I have owned Danskos for several years. These Margretes are actually a replacement for a pair of Margretes that I had for 7 years. They’re a little tighter than I remember them being when my others were new, but they'll be ok. I also had to add some holes to the straps as they were too tight, but easy fix. I love them and wear them with jeans, skirts, anything!

The best shoe ever! I would purchase them in all colors if I could. These are the cutest, most comfortable shoes I own. They're great for walking, dancing, work, and anything else you throw their way. Order them in your usual size, not one size under! The truly fit a little snugger than the Dansko Professional (my other favorite shoe).

Love these - I love Dansko shoes. They are the only shoes I can wear right now that don't make my feet and legs hurt. This style is great because of the ankle strap. I have regular Dansko clogs, but these are easier to walk in, and I don't have to worry about them falling off while running up the stairs! Oh, by the way, they are cute too.

Really like these for everyday wear. These were a little tight on one foot by the pinkie toe; I wore them with socks around my house for an afternoon and now they're fine. The sock turned pink from the leather dye, though (I have the brown pair). The strap is tight around my larger-than-average ankle. It needs another hole punched into it to make it absolutely the perfect fit. These shoes - along with many, many Dansko styles - make my size 41's very pretty. I feel feminine (hard to do when wearing large, comfortable shoes) without sacrificing comfort. I have had issues with other Dansko styles and my plantar fasciitis (my Madigan’s and Remy’s seem to bother it on occasion), but these footbeds are pretty cushy and were very comfortable from the first wear. I was going to buy a black pair, too, but want to try the new Merries. I think I prefer clogs that I can kick off. I LOVE ZAPPOS!

Best shoes in the world - This is the second pair of Dansko Margrete that I have owned. Ther first pair I wore walking all over Eastern Europe in great comfort and they still look great. They look feminine enough to wear with skirts yet are more comfortable than my athletic shoes. Color is much better than how it appears online. I became addicted to Dansko shoes while living in Colorado and it was easy to find them in stores in Denver; they are harder to find in stores in Nashville making Zappos a great option. Zappos has great service and selection.

Work shoe - I have had this shoe style for about ten years. They have been the most comfortable long lasting shoes I have ever purchased! I am an Occupational Therapist & have put many miles on these shoes in hospitals, nursing homes & schools. They recently have been falling apart and this is the 1st time I have seen them in this style again in quite a while. They are both casual & dressy. Best money I have ever spent on shoes!

The most comfortable shoes!!! These are the best shoes. I have 2 pairs of the Classic Clogs…and now 2 pairs of the Margrete’s. I like the Margrete’s better. Don’t get me wrong I still love my clogs but there is just something about these. Now, I did notice on other reviews that people had issues with the back strap being too big…well it will seem that way at first…I almost sent them back after I first tried them on. I decided to wear them for an entire day…and I fell in love. Even though the back strap feels too big the shoes move with you. Give them a chance and you will be in love too!

Great Shoes! I have several pairs of Dansko and I love every one!

Dansko's Margrete - I so wanted to love this shoe, but a couple of things prevent it from being perfect. The heel strap is completely useless. It is HUGE. It doesn't hold onto my heel at all. So, the only thing keeping the shoe on my foot is the adjustable strap over the top of the foot, but even with my narrow foot, it was too short/tight. Also, without socks, the stitching inside the shoe (over the pinkie toes) is rough and hurts. Otherwise, the foot bed and the construction are soft and very comfortable. Note: I wear an 8.5, and I first ordered a 39, but it felt too short. The 40 gave my toes more room. I'm sad to send this cute shoe back, but it just doesn't work for me!

Amazingly comfortable - I was given the Dansko Margrete shoe as a gift and have never experienced a more comfortable shoe. It has exceeded any expectations I had in a shoe. Thank you

I'm a teacher and I have a lot of trouble finding comfortable shoes that I can stand in all day. The first few times I wore these shoes, the edge of the front part (that covers the toes) cut into my feet a little; now, though, they fit perfectly. While the shoes aren't exactly high fashion, they definitely look cute and flatter my size 10 feet. I love them so much that I'm thinking of buying another pair in black.

Great, Comfortable, True To Size, Awesome walking shoes - I have gotten this same shoe in brown which is the picture but the new ones are black. I have had numerous compliments on their looks and also they are the best support for my foot ever. I have three pairs of Dansko. Love, Love, Love them. (I also have major foot problems but that's forgotten when I wear them).

Very satisfied - I am very pleased with Zappos. I purchased a pair of Dansko shoes about six years ago. I loved them. I was thrilled to see the Margrete which is almost identical to the pair I have. They arrived promptly and fit perfectly. I would recommend this store to anyone.

Walking in Wonderland - These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. I have them in 3 colors, and if I could afford it, I would have them in every color that Dansko makes.

Heaven in a shoe! I can't believe how comfortable these shoes are. I don't think I'll ever wear another shoe. Really good arch support and stable foot bed. I normally wear a 7 1/2, sometimes an 8. The 38 fit me perfectly when I wear the shoes with trouser socks. I received them in less than 2 days after I ordered them from Zappos.

Always my favorites! I absolutely LOVE my Grape Latigo Margretes!! I am VERY sorry to see that this beautiful, versatile shade of eggplant is not offered here anymore. I hope they come back by the time I need to replace these!! They go with an amazing variety of colors. They compliment clothing styles from jeans to slacks & skirts. Not super dressy, but I guess (eyes rolling) I can wear some other shoes ONCE in a while. ;D I LIVE in my Margretes - barefoot in summer; socks in winter. And get compliments on them all the time. But the reason I wear them everywhere every day is the c-o-m-f-o-r-t. My expensive cross-trainer tennis shoes are not nearly as comfy. Neither are my suede flat Naturalizers. I'm gradually getting rid of all my other shoes - Clarks included - since these are really the only ones I wear!!! Thanks, Zappos for your fabulous service and incredibly wide selection!! PLEASE always keep Danskos in stock in small sizes - 35 and 36 - and in all colors. Y'all are my favorites!! Today I finally need to order some brown shoes - a little dressy. Also more clogs. No Margretes in 36!! :-( Roxy & Regina look great, but sounds like they will be too big for me since they don't come in 35. I'll try them anyway, just to see.

The cutest Danskos in my closet! I've had my eye on these for a year, and finally ordered them last month. I love, love, love these shoes! They are so much more feminine than my Dansko Professionals, but just as comfortable. They look great with jeans, and with patterned socks, a little bit of sock peeps out. I even wear them with skirts. I wear a 42 in Professionals and a 41 in Sonjas - I ended up with the 42 in the Margrete. The toe area is much snugger than other Dansko styles, but not tight at all. I really wish these came in dark brown on a black sole, and then I'd be buying another pair.

Great shoes; great service - I knew these shoes, so was comfortable ordering online. They fit great. Your site is great.

Overnight Sensation - Back in production after about 2 years of absence, I recently bought a pair in black. They became my favorite pair of shoes in one day. Cute with black tights and a pleated skirt. Without socks - fabulous, with socks - nirvana. Had to buy a full size larger than I normally wear, but who cares, the shoes are dynamite. If you're even vaguely considering them, do your feet a favor and get some today.

Works for every occasion - This Dansko style has more flair than the clog and goes great with pants, skirts, and capris. It is hard to find such a versatile style that is so cute. The strap took breaking into but overall a wonderful fit. I haven't taken the shoes off since I got them two weeks ago.

Great shoe -- glad it's available again! I was very happy to find the Margrete again, after it was discontinued for a few years. In the interim, I bought a replacement that looked the most like it -- both the original and the replacement fit great. One strange thing about the latest version of the Margrete (and I've tried on three different pairs) is that while the footbed fits just like the original, the heel strap is a little too big and I can almost walk out of them, especially with the right shoe. I am extremely happy with my experience with Zappos' sales and service.

Great, as usual - This is my umpteenth pair of Dansko’s. Die-hards know they brought this style back after being gone from the line-up. Thank goodness.

These are THE most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. I have them in black, but I don't care for the look of the two-tone ones (where the heel is a different color). Unlike my Dansko Professionals when I had to order a size up for them to fit, these ones were right on the money. I wear them tons with capris, skirts and pants. With an A-line skirt they have a very early-20th century feel which I love. I wear them with and without socks. They have the most comfortable foot bed of any shoes I've ever had. I can't say enough great things about them!

My last pair lasted since November 1999 - And they are still in good shape -- I just decided it was time to pass them along to Goodwill. These are the most versatile, comfortable shoes I've ever owned. The first day I wore them traipsing up and down hills delivering Meals on Wheels and felt like I was flying along! I love shoes and have Imelda amounts, but these remain my favorites, feet up!
