LOVE these Sanitas. I needed to adjust to the new sizing (which I wish stayed to the European sizing) but had to increase one European size up.

Love this shoe. I will say that I am an 8W and needed to get a 39 to fit me well.
When I opened the box, there were scuff marks on the toes and backs of both shoes and a long dark mark across the top of one shoe.
Exchanging for another pair.

My first shoe review. All of our feet are different, but Sanita Professionals are incredibly good for my plantar fasciitis and pronating. I was wearing other ortho-type shoes and the plantar fasciitis was getting worse and worse. I was limping around. I started wearing these almost all the time and now it is entirely cleared up. I have stuck with the Professionals (in fact, Professional Oil). When I tried a Sanita Nina, it did not fit as well. But these have saved my life! If I go for a long walk or a hike, I have some other shoes and boots, but as long as I mostly stay with these I'm pain free!

These have been my go-to everyday shoes from May - October for more than a decade. Also the best option for working on your feet all day (as a former chef working 10-12 hours a day in a hot, messy kitchen, and former Starbucks shift, I know from long days...). Clean-up is a breeze with a damp rag. Also hard to beat Danish design :-)

I bought shoes for my daughter, she is RN in emergency room. She loves them. They are very comfortable ?

I finally replaced mine after 10 years of double shifts at the Mountain Brauhaus and urban trekking in NYC. When the soles finally split in 3 places I decided it was time to retire them and OMG, the new ones are even more amazing. Firm yet cushy inserts, great arch support, no pinching, no heel rubbing, just total awesomeness. I even went on a short hike with them and found them to be grippy on sandstone, who would have thought??

A little tight across the top but will stretch on the leather. Otherwise, I forget I have feet, they are so comfy!

And Sanita it is! After trying the Dansko Professional in 37 regular and narrow (both were falling off my feet), I read an article about Sanita, who split from Dansko years ago and to try their Professional if Dansko wasn't working. So I did and the Sanita fit my feet perfectly without large side gaps. My foot can still slightly lift as I walk (which is what they're meant to do) but don't feel like they're going to fall off my feet and make me trip! So if you're struggling with Dansko, give Sanita a try. Bonus: they cost less than Dansko!

I had to return my "usual" size (including of the same brand) for 1 size up, they fit perfectly. I like these better than danskos, the shoe is less clunky and fits me much better.

I bought my first pair of Sanitas oil clogs about ten years ago. I wear them everyday, mostly inside my home. They are essential for tasks like cooking and cleaning when I am on my feet for extended periods. I once had a similar pair of danskos but replaced those with the Sanitas, because the fit is better for me. They became my comfort shoe when I got plantar fasciitis, and really helped me recover from that. I have continued to wear them because they keep my feet pain-free and my back in alignment. My decade-old black pair finally broke down this morning, the sole basically came apart. I grabbed my phone and ordered a new pair exactly like them! There are people who think they’re too expensive, but if I were paying hourly for their use it would be the lowest hourly rate of any shoe in my closet. I also bought my husband the same pair to help with his back pain when he is on his feet in the kitchen. They have really helped him and now he is also a huge fan! I highly recommend this shoe.
I have a high instep and this particular model, the oil clog,
Is the only one that really works for me. Other models I haha be tried press on my instep and cause discomfort.

They look great but are too narrow, although my feet are not wide. Returning for a wide fit.

Love these shoes! I'm on my second pair; my first pair lasted for about four years until my dog chewed them. They are so comfortable for walking and being on my feet all day. I work in a school and am often in different classrooms throughout the day, on my feet most of the day. That can be so tiring, but my Sanitas give me the support I need and my feet actually feel great all day, which keeps me energized. They are also great for shopping, again, because they are so comfortable to walk in. I have small feet so Danskos are too wide and too big overall, whereas Sanitas fit well. I gave 3 stars for style simply because they are more practical than trendy.

After trying multiple danskos and not loving the fit for my foot, I’m so happy I tried these! They are so comfortable, feel very supportive and look nice - more molded to your foot than Dansko. Bought the grey and it looks cute with everything!

I have been wearing Sanita clogs for years, this is my fifth pair. After wearing the same size for all these years, I had to increase a size this time. I wear and 8.5 shoe and always bought size 39 clog - could barely get that on my foot and had to size up to the 40. Fits a little looser than my old ones but seems appropriate size. I haven't worn much yet, more of a winter shoe for me.

These fit a bit tighter across the top of my foot than previous pairs I've purchased in same style and size. I'm not sure if it's related to color/material. However, clogs are the only shoes I've been able to wear while standing at work for 12 hours in retail pharmacy. I have several pairs of Sanitas and several Danskos - these are a key member of the rotation

This shoes are extremely comfortable! I originally wanted Danskos but I learned that their clog insteps were too low for my foot shape. The Sanita clogs are a great alternative with a higher instep. These shoes are perfect for wearing at my retail job for 8 hours a day!

I've been wearing these clogs almost daily for about a month, and they are SO comfortable. Sizing: A full size larger than my typical size fits perfectly with thick socks. I was hoping my regular size would fit without socks, but unfortunately the arch support falls in the wrong place. I'm a professor and stand a lot to teach, and I don't feel the least bit of discomfort in these shoes. I'm also comfortable walking and even running (to cross a street or upstairs) when not at work. Unlike typical clogs, they have a flexible sole, which works for me.

I am in love! These are so comfortable. I honestly don’t know how I’ve gone so long without having a pair. Sometimes I feel like shoes scrunch up my toes but these give me plenty of room. The black look really sleek too! I will definitely stick to Thisbe brand for all my clog needs!

I love these! I have warn Dansko clogs for years but switched to this brand with this pair and I love them! The fit is better for me and they have held up longer then the Danskos ever did! I have worn them several times a week for the past year and the sole is just beginning to show wear. Which is good for me as I overpronate and wear shoes out quickly! Usually I only get 6 months out of danskos but these have past the year mark! I’m coming back to buy in a different color!

It’s a great supportive clog! I’ve been wearing weekly the past year for a work shoe! I love the support this shoe provides! I have warn dansko for years but with there changes in manufacturing the sizing doesn’t work as well for me and the quality has deteriorated!

I have been wearing Sanita Professional Oil Clogs, Size 41 Narrow since 2010. Sanita told me this line is made in Poland, not China. I LOVE THESE CLOGS! They are hands down the most comfortable, sturdy, well-made shoes I've ever owned. Although I'm a bit hard on heels, both the uppers and soles were still in great shape nearly 8 years later, and these are my "go to" shoes. So contrary to Sanita's advice, I've had them re-heeled twice and it's like having new shoes. Zappos has been out of my size for a while, so I did buy a new pair of these from Clog Outlet (sorry Zappos!). My old pair is the smooth oil which have been discontinued, so I got the textured oil. For all the reviewers who say they are running smaller, I'm confused. I lined my old ones up to the new ones and they seem to be exactly the same length and width. So are you sure your feet haven't spread? :-). For the reviewers who say they hurt across the top or somewhere else, are you sure you understand how clogs are supposed to fit? They shouldn't be that tight; they're designed so that the foot is able to gently rock and the heel to lift up a bit as you walk. They're not supposed to fit like regular shoes! Also, the leather will conform to your foot after a while just like Birkenstocks.

The fit and size were just as good as the last pair I ordered about 5 years ago. They feel a bit firmer of course, being new. Good support, good grip and I really like how the professional oil finish looks. They were comfortable right out of the box. I love Sanita clogs and hope they continue to be reliable.

I ordered a size 39, which is a US size 8-8.5. I went a half size up because I wanted to be able to wear socks with my clogs. I already have a pair of Sanitas in a 39 regular, but they are regular width. I ordered the wide width and it made the clocks a bit too big. Typically I wear wide shoes, but they aren't needed with these. The feeling of these clogs is amazing, and I loved the texture on the outside.
I'd also recommend:
Danskos, Clarks
