Customer Reviews Dansko Professional

This is the first time I have ordered from Zappos. The staff is so helpful and so customer oriented. I will use Zappos exclusively from now on! Had to exchange sizes twice with no hassle.

These are the best shoes out there. If you have never worn them, I recommend going to a local uniform store and try them on to assure the correct size, they are not sized or fit like your normal purchased shoes, remember also they will also stretch some with wearing this will prevent you from having to send them back or replace them. I have worn Dansko for over 20 years as a health care professional and on my feet for hours, these shoes alleviate foot and back pain. I also suffer from Plantar Fasciitis and have never experienced a flare up after wearing these shoes.

I've been wearing Dansko clogs for almost 20 years and they always fit me well. However, sometime in the past few years they changed their sizing, offering narrow, regular and wide options. I ordered a "regular" width, but apparently, with the new sizing, I needed a "wide." It was a bit frustrating to have to return the "regular" pair and order the "wide," but all's well that ends well. The wide fits fine.

I ordered the Dansko clogs and they arrived a day early. They didn't fit so I looked up how to send back and printed out their return label, shipped them back, free. Within the week, a couple days later they received the shoes and I had a different size at my house the next day! That was the best service I've ever had! The shoes are very comfortable. Your heel is suppose to slip a little in back, but stay on your foot. Your toes should not touch the tip of shoe, and you should feel the arch support. That is how you know its a perfect fit. They are pretty true to size. If you have a foot that is between a 1/2 size and next whole size, I would get the next whole size. I ordered these for surgery because that is what a lot of the surgery staff and nursing staff wear and they swear by the comfort being on their feet for long hours.

I highly recommend these to anyone who is on their feet most of the day! I do recommend trying them on at a store first to get an idea of how they're supposed ro fit. Your heels are supposed to slip out a little when you walk. I ordered online because they didn't have wide width in stores.

Love, love, love these shoes. They provide the three most important shoe qualities: height, comfort and style.

I've had a number of Dansko shoes like this and I've been happy with all of them. One thing to note about them is that they make you a bit taller than normal and I think it makes you a bit wobbly on them at first. I gave this shoe 4 stars out of 5 for style. I like the look of these shoes and that's why I bought this pair, but I also feel that I might tire of it at some point too.

I ordered these shoes for my granddaughter. She loves them, but needs a smaller size. She did not realize they were larger than what she usually wears.

I love these shoes. I am on may feet most of the day and I don't have any foot pain once I get home.

I've had these for a month now and they are great. Like most Dansko's you have to break them in for a few days, maybe a week but once they are broken in, you have them for a while without any maintenance. I even bought a black full grain pair that I wear more because I'm in the kitchen a lot.

These are my favorite work shoes. I have used these for more than 10+ years. They last a long time. They are hand made and therefore, when you order your size they may fit and or may not fit. But once you find one that fits, they are fantastic. Can't say enough about them. I wear Danskos even when I'm off most all the time, except for summer when I'm in flip flops during my off time.

These are not the sexiest shoe out there. But they are comfortable! I teach and so am on my feet all day, and I needed a black version of the professional clog I already have. This time I got the wide, and I highly recommend the wide width for people who have a long break in period with the regular width clogs. In the past it's taken weeks to break in a pair of Dansko shoes, but the wides were perfect almost right away. Definitely the wide version if the regulars seem a bit snug!

These shoes are absolutely amazing. I wear them for about 12 hours a day in the hospital. They are the only shoes I can wear and still have enough energy to go for a run in the afternoon.

This is my third pair of Dansko Pro, so obviously i love them. the oiled leather brown is so cute, and I feel like these uppers don't stretch as much as the regular leather uppers do. My only complaint (and I feel like I shouldn't even call it that) is that the sizing on the pro tends to be inconsistent. I have three of the exact same style shoe, and they are all slightly different sizes. Not a real big deal, but makes it a little harder to order online. OH, and my first pair is 8 years old, and, despite having the insoles replaced twice, they are still going strong and looking good. Definitely a good long term investment.

This shoe is perfect for being on your feet a lot. I ordered 39 wide in black cabrio, and they fit perfect on my size 7 feet! If you have trouble with the top of the shoe hurting foot, get the wide. I also have the xp's, but I keep coming back to the original. I think the fit is more secure, and offers firm support in the arch. Yes, I'm male, and nobody says they look like girls shoes, but I will stay with black, brown, or at least dark colors. Anything else would draw too much attention. They look good with jeans, or any long pants.

Very comfortable and little break in. Arch support which I need. At first I ordered 39's my regular size and thought they were snug so ordered next size up which were way too big. Retried the 39's and they fit, maybe they stretched a bit. Love the all day comfort and get a lot of compliments on them. And as always, Zappos takes care of it all, effortlessly!

This is a great-looking shoe, but sadly, not very wide, even though it says "wide." I couldn't get my foot with it's high arch into it. Bummer. But highly recommend this shoe, especially for anyone who is on their feet a lot! When my feet were narrower (they swelled from a sickness), I wore these all the time, so I am comfortable with my ratings.

Great shoes! I bought these Danskos after a few long days in the OR during my surgery rotation. I was wearing sneakers, which I thought would be comfortable, but they just didn't provide the support I needed. I looked around the room and everyone else had a pair of Danskos on so I just had to give them a shot. Comfortable and supportive! I also love the design, they look great with scrubs or slacks. They have also been great during my ER rotation.

These are very comfortable and well made. I am on my feet a great deal of the day in my profession and frequently wear Dansko shoes. I also like the pattern on the leather. These shoes will not disappoint!

I could not put the shoes on because they are too small. They might be long enough but too narrow to put on, even though they are marked "W."

I bought my first pair of Dasnkos from the walking company store. They fitted me for a 39 even though I'm more of a 7.5/8. I insisted on the smaller size because I didn't like it being loose. That was dumb. It was so small it was actually bruising the top of my feet. Danskos should be ordered at least a half size larger they're supposed to be loose! Now that I have the slightly larger size it's AMAZING! I'm a hairstylist so I'm on my feet for hours and hours! Such a difference my feet, back, or hips are now pain free. My clients do give me a hard time about them looking "too big" but I explain that they're suppose to be. Best investment ever.

I have/had plantar fasciitis and it was very bad. I could barely walk..but these shoes changed by whole world. I love these shoes and it has enabled me to walk again without surgery or inserts or anything. I just wish they had my size in other colors because I would definitely buy them.

I love my professionals! They are extremely comfortable & I get compliments all the time on them. I have multiple colors. I guess I am addicted! You will not be sorry if you invest in Danskos!

This is a very nice shoe. My issue for this shoe in particular is that the heel area sets down a little too low and made the arch dig in slightly this was easily remedied by taking a foam shoe pad meant for the back of the heel (for shoes that rub on the back of the heel)cut and shape it to fit where the bottom of my heel rests. This raised it exactly the amount I needed for the curve of the arch of my foot. I otherwise love this shoe and have received many compliments on it. My overall issue with danskos clogs is they are not consistent in shoe size from style to style, nor are they consistent in the depth of the arch curve. Seems like it could be.

I have worn these shoes almost two years now from 3-5 days a week in my job as a Food Server and they've held up great. They are pretty comfortable, but my feet still hurt after standing on concrete floors for 6-7 hours. I don't want to blame the shoes though. They are by far some of the best professional shoes on the market, in my opinion. I had some $30 cheapies before them and my feet were killing me almost immediately. It's worth the investment for your comfort and foot health.
