Customer Reviews Dansko Professional Patent

Love these clogs - I wear these shoes for 12 hour work shifts in the hospital and my feet never hurt. They are great shoes and they last for years and years. This is my second pair...I still have the first pair from 3 or 4 years ago and I still wear and love them as well. The patent leather doesn’t have to be broken in unlike the regular leather and suede versions of this shoe which I like.

The Healer - I swear by these clog shoes and own 4 pairs! They are therapeutic without looking like old lady shoes! THE ARCH IS GREAT and they are probably the shoes that have saved my feet.

Wonderful Shoes - I am a teacher, so I am always looking for a comfortable shoe, because I am constantly on my feet. This is my first pair of Danskos and they were comfortable right out of the box. My feet are in between m and w width and they were soooo comfortable. I had to one size larger than my regular size, but these shoes are so worth it. I will definitely by another pair in brown.

Terrific shoes that are great to travel in. Can wear them all day with no problem.

I love these shoes! They are very comfortable, so much so that I often find myself looking for the outfit to wear just so I can wear the shoes! Just a note, they do run a little big. I got one size smaller than I usually wear in European sizes.

Fantastic shoes! They are incredibly comfortable. Great arch support. True to size. I travel a lot and these are the best for endless standing, walking and waiting...

One Problem - The one problem with Dansko is that after you have worn them for awhile, (in my case probably ten years); it is very hard to be comfortable in any other shoe! My new black patents solve my dress up problem...

The best shoe in the world! I LOVE these clogs! They are the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. They look nice too...how often do you get comfort AND good looks in a shoe?! I have gotten many compliments on them. I am on my feet all day at work and my feet used to ache by the end of the day, but now I feel no discomfort at the end of the day ...in fact , my feet feel great!

So comfortable, I'm thinking of getting a spare pair... These are the first of the "professional" series (the clogs with backs) that I've tried and I love them. I wear a US 9.5 or EU 40 and the 40s fit me perfectly. I can *just* feel the end of the shoe with my big toe and there's plenty of wiggle room. I got the patent and they look great whether I wear them with jeans or a skirt and tights. Perfect!

Love these shoes! These shoes are really great! I bought them as nursing shoes, but have worn them out for everyday outings. They are comfortable, with room for my toes to move. I love them & will probably buy another color soon!

Great Shoe - This is my fourth pair of Dansko's and they are great for winter. The patent makes them a little more formal and so they are easy to wear to the office with slacks.

My second pair! With a high instep I had a hard time finding comfortable clogs for work. These are the best; they stay clean, have great support and are very comfortable. I am a 7.5 and was told to go up 1/2 size, the 8 fits perfectly.

This is my Second pair I love them so much! I have very large feet size 11 and wear these shoes for work with suits I get so many compliments!! People even say my feet look like a size 8...what a compliment!

Shiny Happy Shoes - I really like the way these shoes look -- and the patent leather version gives it that extra kick. They felt a little stiff at first, but have been comfortable to wear overall. These are really nice shoes.

Comfort, Style and Durability Put Together! In a quandry about what to wear to a January wedding, a friend told me she bought these for New Year's and loved them--My pair fit the bill perfectly and I now wear them as much as possible! Fit is true to size. Good work Dansko!

For a fantastic feel for your feet try Danskos - I have had trouble with my feet for about two years now - I have bought insoles and a myriad of other things to help with foot pain. But I saw these shoes on a worker at a local store (she walked a lot) and asked her about them. She told me where she bought them and I bought a pair and I must say I now own several pairs. They are the best feeling shoe for my feet. I am so grateful for them.

Love them! These are awesome shoes. The fit is perfect and the arch support is better than my orthotics! They look cute with jeans or a black skirt. They are also great in the snow!

Any Dansko clogs - I had bought a pair of Dansko Sonya’s backless clogs years ago, but when I was travel nursing I forgot my work shoes and had to wear my clogs to work, they were great! My feet never hurt even after 13 hrs! I’m a light wt person and for me the cushion and support is more than adequate. I have short wide feet and a med width has been fine. I wear a 6 and buy the 36 euro size, no problems. I work in renal dialysis and fluid spills wipe right off the patent leather. Plus they're really cute!

LOVE THESE SHOES!! I've been wanting a pair of Dansko's but thought they looked too clunky to wear w/pant suits... but these patents do the trick. Dressy, spunky and OH SO COMFY.

Great shoes - I love this shoe. They look sharp and are amazingly comfortable. My feet actually look smaller than they are. I can walk miles! Never a blister. Zappos is terrific!

Pleased with patent - Excellent Dansko shoe, very comfortable, as are all my Danskos in the Professional series. I own several pairs of Danskos, not all in the Professional series, and am extremely happy with them. They are very durable! I have had some pairs for 5-6 years and am still able to wear them to work everyday.

Fantastic shoe - Overall, I am very happy with this shoe, my first pair of Dansko clogs. They are just as comfy as everyone says-- I see what the hoopla is about! Very cute too, I've gotten lots of compliments on the patent leather. My only complaint is that the right shoe is definitely bigger than the left, but I didn't really realize it until after I'd been wearing them for almost a week (too late to return). And it's not just my feet because a friend of mine who wears 8.5 shoes and always wears size 39 Danskos also felt that the right shoe was noticeably larger. It's not a huge problem-- I can and will still wear them-- just slightly annoying for an otherwise extremely high quality shoe. I would recommend wearing them inside for several days to make sure they are BOTH the right size!

Hospital Chic - QUICK BREAK DOWN: SIZE: These are true to size ONLY if you go up one size from your normal shoe size. Don't waste your time shipping a wrong size back to Zappos to have them send you another. Just go up one size and most people should be fine with that. Or, if you have time, go to a clog store and get fitted for a pair and buy them here for a cheaper price--that's what I did. WIDTH: These are clogs, not a dress shoe which I'm accustomed to wearing, so I think they're wider than marked. With that said, they aren't overly wide for my narrow heel and just perfect for my wide toe-box area. Another thing to remember: your heel does go up and down in the clog, but these stay on better than open back clogs. ARCH SUPPORT: I have extremely high arches and these do wonders for me. When my orthodics come in I can only imagine how heavenly they will feel! THE LONG BREAKDOWN: I love my Dansko clogs. I bought these a few weeks ago and loved them so much I bought a pair in brown. The patent-leather black is a perfect compliment to my work clothing that ranges from suits, slacks, skirts and dressier tops. I work as a chaplain in a busy hospital and I am on my feet a lot--thus the "Hospital Chic" title--but I wear them when I'm not at work, too. My assigned unit (when not on-call) is orthopedics, with lots of people having foot surgery. One of the surgeons suggested I get these clogs--and I'm so happy I did. I have very, very high arches and most shoes don't help support my feet the way they need to be; these clogs changed all of that. The arch support is superior. I don't get foot fatigue in these clogs like I used to with other shoes. They're not heavy, either. I would strongly suggest you order one full size larger than you normally wear in other shoes. For example, I wear a 10 and should, in theory, wear a size 40 in Danskos, but I'm a 41. There are always exceptions to the norm, but it's a good rule of thumb to begin with if you're new to clogs. I think they're a perfect mix of the unexpected and the very comfortable/functional. I would take these shoes over my stacked wedge heels, still sitting in my closet among many other pairs of cute shoes, any day.

Happy Feet - I am a very active mom and I LOVE these shoes! The high arch and flex sole makes them great to wear all day--with or without socks. Get a little bigger size than usual. I wear a size 8 and got the 39 (about and 8 1/2) My friend who wears a 7 got the 38. Great on a rainy day too. Very durable. LOVE THEM.
