I have spent years looking for a comfortable, everyday shoe to go with jeans. I have terrible knees and wide feett with a low arch, and these are PERFECT. The sizing is tricky - usually I'm a 10.5 wide, but I had to get the 42 wide in these because they run very short. The top of the right clog dug in for a few days but it loosened up and now they fit great. It does take a few wears to get used to walking in clogs, but once you do they are magic.

I've been thinking about getting a pair of these for years and finally did it when I developed plantar fasciitis. They are great! The cordovan cabrio color is beautiful and goes with everything. I ordered the black cabrio at the same time and they fit completely different -- they are hand made so each pair will give you a different fit. The cordovan ones were a bit snug across the top but I have narrow feet so I kept them and they have broken in nicely. These are a great investment!

Comfort! This is my second pair in this style, they wear exceptionally well. I am on my feet a lot, have plantar fasciitis problems. No tightness across the top, hits my arch beautifully.

I ordered the Dansko Professionals in Black Cabrio Leather. I wear a 7 in casual shoes, and a 7.5 in pumps, and the size 38 fit me perfectly with the requisite pinkie-finger clearance in back. These are nice clogs, and seem well made. Incidentally, the ones I received were stamped "made in Italy" -- in fact all the Black Cabrio Professionals I've seen recently have been made in Italy, not China. I ordered the Danskos along with the Sanita brand Professionals in Black Cabrio, to compare. I prefer the Sanitas -- the Danskos came up further on the foot (toward the leg) than the Sanitas, also I preferred the slightly harder leather of the Sanitas.

I love these shoes. I have had terrible heel and leg pain which is now gone. They were tight to begin with but have conformed to my feet and now are looser. They were worth every penny, I will be buying more of them.

I absolutely love my shoes and wear them almost every day at work. I'm on my feet all day walking on concrete floors. My doctor recommended them for my plantar fasciitis and they really have made a difference. I did have to return my first pair and get a size larger, but so happy I did. I love them and am looking forward to buying another pair soon!

I wear a size 9, and after a try with Dansko 39's (I thought they might be too small but had never worn Dansko's before), I found that the 40 is just the right fit. Give your toes & heels a little room. These shoes are comfortable, resilient, and make a day on your feet much easier!

These shoes saved me. I stand on my feet all day at work. One day of the week it's 8 hours standing on concrete. I was having such foot pain that I was just about ready to go to a podiatrist. I decided to give these shoes a try, and 3 weeks later, I am pain-free.

This is my first pair of Dansko clogs. I was looking for a shoe to travel in that would be easy to get on and off through airports. These shoes fit the bill perfectly! I own Dansko sandals and love how comfortable they are. These clogs do not disappoint. The sizing was a little short compared to the sandals but I just ordered the next size up and they fit great. I get many compliments over the design etching and these shoes look great with jeans.

Most comfortable shoe ever! I'm a physician and work 12-hour shifts; these keep my back and feet from hurting when I work. I've had my Danskos for about 5 years and they are finally starting to wear out. I hate to have to replace them but will eventually have to break down and do it. They are worth every penny! I wear a size 8 in US shoes and the 38 in Dankso fits like a dream.

I love these shoes! I ordered my 3rd pair today... they're the only shoes I wear! I had to work out the sizing but once I got it right, they're a perfect fit. Love them!

Many things: 1.) be sure to try on your Dansko shoes in a store and be fitted for them. This is important as shes sizes do tend to vary from store to store and by brand (I usually wear a 6.5W, but I wear a 38 for Dansko's) and also that Dansko's are handmade and will vary! (I tried on two different pairs of size 38's in the same style and went with the one that I felt was more comfortable.) 2.) Dansko's are supposed to feel tight at the top of your feet and have a finger width gap at the back of the heel. this is part of being measured for Danskos. So if I had recommendations for Dansko purchasers its this: If this is your first pair of Dansko's, go to a shoe store and talk with the people there to get properly fitted. If you ultimately want to buy Dansko's online (and save by doing so) then do it, but you may end up returning the shoes over and over again until you find a good fitting pair, or deal with the luck of the draw. Good notes: Excellent for wide footed folks! :)

Love these shoes, they finally fit! I am a women size 12 med. and have bought Dansko shoes in the past (5 or so yrs ago, size 42) Yet when I ordered a 42, then a 43, both times too small, my toes were cramped. Unfortunatly Dansko does not make women's 44. So I ordered this shoe, a 44 and the length was perfect, slightly wider I think because it is a men's shoe. They are comfortable and have good support. I hope Dansko will make more syle options for women's 44.

I wasn't sure on my size so I ordered the 8-8.5. They seemed too loose so I called to see about getting a refund. Zappos is awesome, sent me a size smaller and told me to keep the ones I already had in order to compare the fit. They said these shoes were supposed to "slip" a little at the heel. So I agreed. The smaller size was much tighter round the top of my foot, so I decided to keep the original pair. No hassle, free shipping both ways. I love Zappos! And these Danskos are wonderful for 12.5 hour RN shifts in the ER.

Best purchase! These shoes are great. I work in an office and it's so cold all winter. These are great because they are comfy and I can wear warm socks with them.

I'm a waiter and this shoe is perfect for me. They're durable and comfortable. Amazing arch support - my back hurts way less after a long day since ordering these shoes. I wear a size 12 and ordered a 46 (us 12-13) and the fit is great.

Love the look and comfy fit of this Dansko classic! I do get compliments...I wear black pants almost every day for work, and they really look nice, and give me a few inches that help my petite pants not to drag on the ground. Walked uphill, and they were great!

Love, love, love these shoes. I bought the Narrow Professional and they fit perfectly. I am on my feet all day and they are the most comfortable shoes I own. I just wish Dansko would make all of their styles available in Narrow.

I have had countless pair of Dansko Professional Clogs and they are my favorites! I loved the patent leather look this Fall/Winter so I purchased a pair. In two months the uppers began to crack and peel. I am going to have to throw them out or relegate them to yard work only shoes. Way disappointed with the materials on the patent leather style. Will go back to my oiled leather professional!

Super comfortable, look nice. A great arch support. Plus, I love being taller in them! You have to get used to your heel slipping in them - this is normal. I walk 1.5 km to work in them and they're great.

Another great pair of Dansko's. The tool work on this shoe is subtle yet offers a bit more style for what can feel a bit utilitarian. As with other shoes in the Dansko Prof line, they will soften up a bit. Mine felt tight at first but within 1-2 wearings had conformed to my foot. Super comfy and support for my disintegrating metatarsal joint.

Great style and fit. Returned first pair and got the next size smaller which fit much better. I have wide feet and always have a hard time finding shoes that fit well.
Seem well constructed and I plan to buy another pair in black when they are back in stock.

Love the shoe, it took a couple of orders to figure out my size but Zappos was really wonderful for exchanges. I suffer with plantar fascitis and Danskos are great they have good support and I love them! If you wear wide make sure your order wide.

Love Dansko especially for everyday wear! Great for a lot of walking and standing at conferences but still look professional!
