Customer Reviews Sanita Professional Cabrio

I bought these shoes less than seven months ago. I had a similar pair of Danskos that I purchased in 2010 for a veterinary job where I was on my feet all day. Those shoes had been great and were finally getting fairly beat up (the rubber sole was beginning to crack from frequent crouching). After some research, I opted to try Sanita clogs as they had previously manufactured Danskos and I assumed that quality control would be more consistent since Danskos are now manufactured in many different locations. Unfortunately, I chose poorly. In the time that I have had the Sanitas, wearing them in the same conditions as my previous Danskos, they have already begun peeling somewhat on the toes. Additionally and most frustrating, the staples that run along the inner outsole (near the ball of the foot) of both shoes have started backing out constantly. Once or twice a day, I will see a few staples sticking 2-3 mm out of the shoe and have to hit them back in with the other shoe or some other hard object. Today, I am trying some glue along the staples to see if that helps. Granted, the shoes have been comfortable, so I am pleased in that regard. However, if I am paying this much for a pair of work shoes, I expect them to hold up a little bit better. Comparing my 4½ years with the Danskos versus almost 7 months with the Sanitas, I think I will go with Danskos next time.

It seems that Sanita has gone the same way as Dansko. I don't know why they changed a wonderful shoe? I ordered a 39 and 40. (just in case) 39 would be my size...right shoe great the left one much smaller (tight). The 40's were way too big. They are going back and I won't try anymore. It's a waste of time. And they are hard leather. I don't think they would ever 'break in'. And it is hard to fill in the questions that are asked because the fit was so strange.

I ordered a 39 and the right shoe felt a whole size smaller than the left one. I really wanted to like this shoe. I gave up on Dansko because of the inconsistent fit. I was hoping the Sanita would be better. I'm still in search for a great work shoe. My next try will be Alegria. I hope I have better luck. Thank you Zappos for making purchases and returns so quick and easy!!

Definitely not the same as Dansko quality. My wife had a pair of similar Dansko clogs that held up beautifully for 12 years. When she went to replace them with this pair of Sanitas, she expected better quality. What she found was that after 3 months, the surface of the leather was stripping off the toes and the stapled sides were pulling apart. Very disappointed in this purchase.

I am a loyal Dansko wearer for years, but my last two pairs have been so squeaky with every step from the day I bought them. I was chatting with coworkers who suggested the Sanitas. I ordered a pair, and I am firm size 40 in Danskos. So I was hesitant to listen to the reviews saying the Sanitas ran smaller. Well it is true, I am returning these and I think I am going two sizes larger and getting a 42, they felt that small. Live and learn to listen to the reviews!

I totally do not understand the positive reviews these shoes receive. I stepped into these shoes and it's like wearing concrete. No give, no soft support, nothing but a hard shoe with an uncomfortably high arch. I'm grateful that I shop with Zappos because these are going straight back! I'd give these zero stars if that was an option. For people who think this shoe is better than the Dansko - I'm giving it the exact same review. Both are lousy.

So disappointed when these arrived. The right foot was too small and the left foot was too big. They were very stiff. I have another pair of the same shoe that I love and are a softer leather and could wear them right away. I could not wait to get these off my feet.

I have been a fan of Sanita Clogs for years and usually I can wear them right out of the box with no breaking in period. I am sorry to say that this is not the case with these clogs. They are really tight and uncomfortable and I will return them. I just ordered a pair of Klogs and I hope they will be a better fit.

Received these shoes by mistake. Had ordered the Sanita Professional Cabrio. Couldn't believe the difference between this shoe and the Sanita Professional Cabrio that I had been wearing all day. These are much wider and the bed of the shoe is not as comfortable. Sending these back and getting what I ordered in the first place. Will never order a Dansko after trying these on.
