i am always a skeptic of those who says shoes are comfortable right out of the box...but they were right about these shoes! I work in a 2 story restaurant with concrete floors...these shoes have endured night after night and been incredible. I had a little sensitivity on the top of my foot where the strap hits after the first day I wore them - but that was a 14 hour day in brand new shoes. No problems with it since. love this shoe and only desire would be for more fun colors in this style

Perfect! Stylish and Dansko comfort! I don't want to take them off. Careful, though, b cz of this gorgeous sandy color, I put mink oil on them to protect them from staining and they did darken to a more light carmel color. Still pretty, but not the same. Fit is as the Dansko clog. Order that size.

I love Danskos, and these are no exception. These have a comfortable, supportive footbed, and the platform gives some height even though the heel isn't too high. My only complaint is that the buckle is a little hard to fasten and unfasten, but hopefully that will improve as the leather breaks in.

I have wide feet and took a chance on these. Unfortunately, one foot is wider on the other and the shoe hit an uncomfortable spot on my wider foot. Also, I was going for a 1970s clog style but found these more of a round-toe chunky mary jane look, almost like a Minnie Mouse shoe. Very cute, but not for me. I think these would be very comfortable on most people's feet-- the one that fit was light and stable while walking.

These are my favorite go-to shoe when the seasons change from sandals to shoes or vice versa. They're dressier than athletic shoes, but I can do almost everything but hike in them even though I actually ended up doing it last weekend. I don't recommend it if there are rocks and tree roots! I made it though, and my feet didn't even hurt. They're also very comfortable walking over cobblestones. I really love all of my Danskos and haven't had a bad pair yet.

I have been having a problem with nerve pain in my foot, and my podiatrist told me to wear Danskos. I have a few pairs of clogs, but wanted to treat myself to something that would bridge the gap between winter and spring. The Sam is perfect! It's even cuter than the photo and very comfortable! I'm go glad I got it. ??

So glad they brought these back. At first they don't feel quite as comfy as my old pair, but they may just require some breaking in. I rarely re-buy shoes I already own, but these are comfortable enough to merit an exception.

I love these shoes! I was really disappointed however that they are not the high quality I usually expect from Dansko. They arrived and only some of the holes on the ankle straps are punched all the way through! (It seems very like the holes were punched in the upper and then after that they were attached to the lower part which had no holes?) So in order to actually wear these I'll have to get an awl to punch through the holes myself (who even has an awl?) I will likely take them to a shoe repair shop for help, but shoes this expensive shouldn't be DIY at all. I should have been able to pull them out of the box and wear them immediately. Sad!

I've had other Danskos and these are just as comfortable. Also, it's nice to be able to find size 5 on Zappos as it is not always easy to find shoes in my size. I bought these for an upcoming trip as I prefer to wear shoes like this rather than sneakers when I am traveling. The shoes fit perfectly and are extremely comfortable. I think they'll be perfect for my trip.

Love my Dansko's! They look great and are very comfortable. Now I do not go hiking in them but I have walked in them for short distances. Great to wear for party, out to dinner, walking down city streets to peruse art galleries.

This is by far my favorite shoe. I recommend the soft leather styles because they are ready to wear from purchase. No blisters, no sore feet. I wish I had a pair for every color of the rainbow. I can't believe I waited this long to be a Dansko customer.

I have bought and worn Dansko shoes for over 20 years. They are comfortable and well made. These did not disappoint. They are true to size and the tooling on the leather is lovely. I would highly recommend these to a friend!

I really love these shoes. I wear a 9-9.5 and the 40 fit the best, 39 was too snug. Inspect the shoe when you first get it though, the straps of mine were different lengths, and after a long day on my feet, the one on my right foot gets a little too snug for comfort, but I'm taking my shoes off at that point anyway. I should have sent them back for another pair, but had already worn them a few times before noticing and seeing the measurable difference. I've only had for a few weeks, but I would buy again.

This shoe is stylish and extremely comfortable, as are all Dansko. I wore the next day all day and my feet did not hurt at all. If you have back problems the Dankso shoe will help. To soften the leather I use Nivea cream (blue container), learned this living in Italy.

They are perfect and so attractive. Very comfortable. I leave for Europe this week so this will be my walking shoe. I wanted something comfortable and not frumpy looking sneakers. They have a great design too.

Love these shoes. They fit and feel great although it is tricky getting the right size since just because you wear one size in a certain style, does not mean you will wear the same size in another style. I wear these with rolled up Boyfriend jeans and a loose sweater or top...I get stopped almost every time I wear them with women asking what they are and where did I get them. They have that distinctive European look.

My size used to be 10aa; and now is a 10 1/2a; the only width available is B, so I needed it to strap on my foot. At times my ankles are swollen, so I needed to loosen the ankle strap; but there is little to let out; the strap could have been more generously longer. The support is good and the heel height is just right. The leather is not the greatest quality and seems more like heavy paper rather than a supple leather. It should be a good walking shoe...yet to be determined. I only wear Dansko now and know why podiatrists recommend this brand.

These are fantastic. Very comfortable and stylish. I get compliments all the time. I usually wear a 41, but in these a 42 felt much more comfortable. I have to go a size up in Danskos in general.

I love these shoes. LOVE them. They are incredibly comfortable, light on my feet, and not huge and chunky. I have plantar fasciitis and need heel support for a long work day, Danskos are the only shoe I've found that truly give me the relief I need. The tooled pattern in the leather is also something I get lots of compliments on!

Great sandal. The greyish-nude color goes with just about everything (a sandal goes with) while not looking dirty despite consistent wear. I've worn this sandal to walk to work all summer, and shopping for hours as well, with no complaints from me.

I am absolutely in love with these shoes. They are my first pair of Danskos. I've never bought the brand before because my ankle would roll out of the top of the heel, but this style, with the ankle strap, keeps my foot secure inside, and my ankles happy. I get compliments on these often as a shoe that looks cute but comfortable: it's a light, fun clog...not clunky at all. The color is a really nice neutral; I've got some leather conditioner and waterproofing spray that I plan to use, because with such light leather, things like grass and dirt will show easily. I'm wearing these every day, and have to convince myself to take them off. I am smitten. As for size: I am normally a US 7. I ordered both the 37 and the 38...while the 37 felt a little tight at first, it has worked out, and the 38 was way too loose.

Very pretty styling, especially the tooled leather, works great with pants or skirts. Comfortable and true to size, at the end of the day, my feet still feel like dancing. :-)

I wear a size 10 wide, normally wear size 41 Danskos which is what I ordered, in sand dollar. I wish I had ordered a size up, 42, as they are somewhat tight across the top of the foot, as are some of my Danskos in the past. Hopefully will stretch in time. I wear with the small socks, wear for shorter periods of time initially. The color is a little light also. They are somewhat cute. Not what I expected. Though would love them more.
