I really like these sandals. I have been having trouble finding sandals that are the right length yet still have straps that fit me. Many are too loose. Since these straps are adjustable both on the forefoot and around the ankle, I was able to get a good fit. I did have a few extra holes punched in the ankle strap. I like these way these look and they are comfy enough that I can wear them all day for teaching.

They\'re Danskos, so they\'re comfortable. The sole is this great cushioned semiabsorbent stuff; the leather is very pretty. They felt great wearing around the office, not really walking much, for a day or two; but after wearing them all over on vacation for a few days, they started to chafe something awful on the big toe side. Maybe I just need to loosen the buckles (they\'re configurable); I intend to try, since they\'re hella cute.

They fit well and are super comfortable. I have fallen off the side/twisted my ankle a few times, but that is standard fare with Dansko. Perhaps I am just klutzy? Either way, very comfortable, if a bit clunky.

Very comfortable foot bed. The leather is a bit rough. I'm still using a few Band-Aids for the irritations that the shoes have caused, but they're very cute and worth taking the time to break them in.

These are good shoes! they provide the comfort of any other Dansko, but the soft footbed makes them even more comfortable to wear without socks. While they're moderately cute, I wish I had shopped a little more. I think this season's Dansko sandals are even better. but these cover my ugly bunion and look good with dresses, so they're doing their job. I don't know if this is true for these sandals, but generally Dansko is a shoe that lasts forever and ever, so they're worth the price.

I like the look. Like all Dansko\'s they are very comfortable. The only thing is they feel pretty wide. I may take them to a shoe maker to add additional holes in to narrow them some. For someone with a wider foot I\'m sure they\'d be great.

Cute, kind of retro and the most fashionable Dansko I've seen- especially the brown colors with the fake wood bottom. I am a 9-9.5 and the 40 fits me perfectly in length. The footbed is like walking on a comfy cloud, and the arch support is very good. The shoe does rub/press on my feet at the "bunion area" It didn't quite give me a blister, but I put some padding inside the leather before I went out for a long day in these, and it seems to help a bit.

I bought the black as a pretty all-terrain sandal to wear with pants to work, especially on summer days that call for a lot of walking. The style, fit, comfort and support were perfect, and with enough adjustments to fit my wide foot, also there was no break-in period. My main complaint with this style is that the foot bed that supposedly wicks away moisture to keep your feet dry and odor free instead seems to trap moisture and odor, the latter of which does not go away on its own. With the cushy foot bed and its light gray color, it's not an easy problem to solve. These are comfortable for walking with the heel strap, but I would not recommend them for extended walking or uneven surfaces since ankle twists and stumbling are common when I wear them. That said, for their comfort, I would definitely recommend the brand.

Love these shoes, they are going to be my everyday walk around, go to work shoe. The clog base is comfortable for all day wear, stable for uneven pavement but also gives me a little height to make my leg look nicer. They are fully adjustable with an ankle strap and toe box strap making it easier to go with socks or without. A little rubbing on the insides of the toe area is happening but they just need a bit of softening up. The color is great and the cut out details make this clog look pretty not bulky.

So far so good. I tried on so many shoes in preparation for a trip that requires a ton of walking and these are the most comfortable. A little worried about the strap breaking after reading other reviews but this hasn't happened to me.

This shoes are cute -- most people who buy them will already be Dansko fans, and they\'re pretty much what you see is what you get! I like them. That said, the Danskos with open heels like this exacerbate the ankle-rolling problem that many wearers have. Still, I give them a thumbs up.

These clogs make my legs look longer and thinner and are very flattering. They are also so adjustable, they could probably fit almost any foot. The only issue I have with them is I wish the inside of the upper was as soft and cushy as the sole. The inside of the upper irritates my toes a bit. But I\'m basically very happy with them. They might not look like much in the picture, but wear them with shorts and no one will be looking at the shoes.

Great shoes. Dansko, as always, produces the most comfortable shoes. I like the adjustable strap across the top. They are great if you have bunions and need a little extra room!

Although these are among the most comfortable and stylish sandals I've ever worn, there is a weakness in one part of the shoe. It is the little piece of elastic on the ankle strap. It started to fray soon after I began to wear the shoes and I had to have it replaced at my shoemakers.

Pros: I love these sandals. At first I thought the style was a little bit dated (they reminded me of some shoes I had as a kid), but then I fell in love with them. I have also received many compliments on them. It is great that the inner lining is so soft, and you don\'t stick to the shoes as you walk. \r\n\r\nCons: the first pair I purchased broke in less than a month- thankfully Zappos sent me another pair. I did also notice I slide a little on the soft part of the sole. \r\n\r\nThat being said, I still recommend these shoes and still love Dansko. \r\n\r\n

This is a very comfortable casual sandal that looks good with shorts, jeans and skirts. It is slightly clunky looking in the way of all Dansko shoes. My feet have very high arches, wide in the front with a narrow heel. The two different adjustments (front and heel) work very well as they allow for a more custom fit than just the (more common) heel-only strap. I was able to wear these right out of the box for several hours, and have even used them to walk around town (3 or 4 miles) with no problem.

Cute, very comfy, lightweight, ankle strap does not rub.Cons: Clunky, toe strap does rub, had to get the size 10 (I'm a size 9-91/2) so I had to use a leather punch to make another hole on the ankle strap so it would fit.

What a great sandal. Comfort gets a 5! Love it. I would go up a size though. I had to get a 39 even though I normally wear a 38. The only problem was that the leather straps seem to show wear very early on. I had only worn the shoes a couple of times and the leather strap on the toe part was showing signs of wear already, which was disappointing for the money you pay for these shoes. But overall, these are great sandals that go well with everything from jeans to skirts. Dressy or casual. Love them.

I am a Hair Stylist so I am on my feet 11 hours a day & the shoes are very comfortable, but I ordered a half size bigger and they are still a little too small. They also make my feet smell after wearing them all day at work. So if you can stand that, go ahead and and get them. Overall totally worth it because now my feet don't ache every day!

Very supportive. I agree with other reviewers that they run a little short. I typically wear a 38 and ordered a 39 and the 39 fits just right. I did need to have an extra hole punched in the ankle strap (I do have narrow ankles). Not sure if this would have also been the case if I had not had to go up a size. Love that the front is also adjustable. Am noticing some rubbing but plan to get some moleskin to cut to fit. Only real problem is that because the sole is a little chunky, the strap at the ankle tends to pull a little/feels a little heavy (not sure if I'm explaining that well). But these have a lot of support for my flat feet and overall I am happy.

Cute, comfy.
I bought these for walking around college, as they are high enough off the ground that I don't get as much dirt under my toes like you would in flip flops. They do run small! I wear a 9, 9 1/2 in heels and had to order a 10.

Buckle on front allows for adjustment to width, a big plus for those of us who find widths are often too narrow. Dansko knows how to shape a comfortable sole.

If you're thinking of ordering the black or black patent of Sissy, be aware that the gray lining really makes the shoe look ugly in person. I didn't notice it when I was looking on line but, to my mind, it ruins the look of an otherwise very cute and super comfortable shoe. It should be black.
