Customer Reviews Dansko Sam

Love it - runs true to Dansko size, comfy right out of the box. A very cute summer version of the shoe.

I love these shoes! I am a huge Dansko fan because I have wide feet and back problems and Danskos offer amazing support and a generous footbed. These shoes are absolutely adorable( even on my wide feet), and so comfortable. They are great with a skirt or jeans, very versatile.

I love Dansko Sam's, and this is my third pair, however, as the Honey Distressed color was sold out I bought the Sand Dollar instead. I definitely do not love the color. But I need the shoes, so I am keeping them...

These fit pretty well, and I love the way the look. Unfortunately, my skin is very fragile, and the edge of the toe cup is too stiff for me. It will bruise me if I wear it without socks, but the shoe fits too closely to have room for a sock. I may try again in a larger size.

I ordered my usual Dansko size and these were a good fit. Very comfortable shoe. I wish they came in a lower heel, but I like these enough to order another pair. I'm always looking for cute, closed toe shoes that have good arch support.

My toes swam a bit in the toe box, and the color wasn't appealing to me in person. The shoes are very comfortable though.

Just a bit small. Loved the style though.

Too big for me though it was my size. The leather is stiff. But the color is a great lipstick red.

Love the color and style, but it was too narrow.

Several take aways: 1) everyone is right- you should probably size up. My feet are on the narrow side, but I still wear medium width- the length was right in the larger size, but the shoe was too wide. In my normal size, the leather cur into the side of my food when walking. 2) the colors are really nice in person. 3) the bottom is not real wood, so I think they would have been very comfortable for standing and walking all day if I didn't have the fit issue. Sorry I couldn't make them work!

I wanted to love these shoes, but front sides were cutting into the front of my feet. The width was wide enough on the sole, but the leather was too hard against my skin. A softer leather might have been better.

Too short, not comfie

These black Dansko Sam, fit will on my foot, the straps do not cut into the ankle bone and they feel secure on my foot. Usually this brand gets loose after awhile and then the toe of the shoe begins to get "floppy" not good for hallux rigidus. And at these prices, they could last a few years hopefully.

Too small

Right foot toes touching the top of shoe. Normally doesn’t this type of shoe. This is the size I wear, normally. Also, the left shoe strapped looked worn. The other looked bran new.

Loved these but they rubbed the toe nail of both big toes. They are lovely lovey and well made shoes

These shoes are beautiful, and I hate to send them back, but they are just too short. I ordered the 43, great narrow width for my skinny feet, but shorter then marked, more a true 11/ 42. Ugh - my toes are up against the front.

Pretty comfortable and sturdy. But my feet ache after standing in them a few hours. Some more sole cushioning would help.

I usually wear a size 9, regular width, in women's shoes, but euro size 39 does not seem to work for me; the Dansko Sam in 40 is perfect. I work in a busy restaurant and have high arches: I did have sore feet after the first day (busy weekend lunch shift!) of breaking them in but nothing extreme. Recommended for kitchen people. Probably the most attractive but practical shoe option I've seen for my work.

I so wanted to love these. They were very comfy right out of the box. Fit as expected but they just had a bit too much of an “old lady” vibe so, I returned them. Maybe better with long pants than Capri or ankle length.

Dansko is a quality shoe and very well made. The “Sam” did not fit on the foot where I’d had surgery. The shoe for the other foot seemed a bit short also. I was able to get another, slightly different style, from Zappo’s, which fit my usual size.

Have been wearing this same Dansko shoe for years and love it. Ordered new pair and not the same anymore. Upper leather not as soft and felt much tighter in the toe box. Returned them and will try wide width to see if it’s any better. Disappointed for sure.

True to size, comfortable stylish.

Love the footbed, height, and look, but the leather edges are rougher and thinner than what I expected. When I first put them on, I wasn’t sure I would keep them, but now I am glad I did!

I'm a 39 in Dansko usually, with a wide foot. This was a bit narrow and seemed slightly shorter.
