After reading all the reviews, I ordered two sizes--my usual shoe size and then the slighter larger size which is the same size as the professional clog that I have. The larger size was much better. I wasn't sure if the shoe was "suppose" to flop a little bit when you walked like the professional ones? But my usual shoe size was way too tight and would have been horrible walking all day. That being said, they do flop a little bit but they are VERY comfortable. I have high arches and they hug my foot perfectly. Other reviews have stated how they are narrow in the foot bed and I agree, they are. But with the correct size, that wasn't a problem for me.

Oh I really wanted to like these. I love my classic Dansko's but they get heavy, and I wanted a more stylish shoe. I tried both a 38 and a 39 and neither fit right ( I wear a 38 in classic). 39 completely slipped off my heel and the 38 rubbed and was too tight. They are cute, lighter, but they are certainly narrower cut than regular clogs.

I have a bad low back and Danskos really help. However, I don't like the general look of most styles and they are too wide for my narrow feet. This shoe looked sleeker and many reviewers said it felt narrower than other styles. I thought I'd give it a try since the other styles flip off my heel. I'm a size 9.5/10 but ordered a 41 because if I order my true size, my toe jams into the front of the shoe. I had these delivered to my office and first tried them on with nylons and they were way too big in the heel, but fit beautifully in the toe and across the top of my foot. I decided to take them home and try them on with a heavy sock and they are very comfortable and only slip slightly in the heel. I'm going to keep them and hope they don't stretch out too much over time.

This is my second pair of the Tamara style. I tried the Tenley as well but found that the heel on those were too big/wide for me. I have a narrow foot and the Tamara fits well. They are a bit more stylish than a clog. The exact pair I got seems to sqeak as a walk; hoping that goes away!!

I had the older style with the button clasp for several years and they are so comfortable that I finally ordered another color, in this buckle style. Fit the same, feel great. With Dansko's I always wear them around the house several times with thick socks to break them in a little, and soften up the leather; and then they are good to go.

I have not had a chance to wear this shoe much as it is still hot in Atlanta! The shoes are really cute and definitely less clog/clunky looking than many of the Dansko line. Without socks ( which I would never wear without) the shoe slips on my heel. I think with thin socks or tights they would also slip up and down as I walk. Because I think they are so cute and otherwise comfortable, I got a pair of comfort insoles by Dr. Sholls and I think they will be fine when I get out of flip flops and sandals!
As a side note... comfort is essential to me. I am a nurse and have abused my feet by being in this profession and standing more hours than could ever be counted. I have had plantar facilities and have foot neuropathy so good, comfortable shoes are a must. To find a pair that are comfortable and supportive is really important. I think these fit the bill and don't mind buying a small orthotic or insole to keep my foot from slipping

I really liked the way this shoe looked with pants, however it felt too small to wear with socks and style wasn't quiet right to wear with crop pants. Too bad, this shoe had excellent arch support and felt very comfortable but wasn't quite what I was looking for. I've never had a problem with Dansko before. I'll definitely keep looking for other Dansko styles.

Super cute Dansko and more professional looking for office - unfortunately much too tight across arch for me. Had to return.

I really wanted to like these. They're cute and seem multi-purpose. They fit fine (I'm a 7.5) in terms of width and length. Perfect toe box, I might add (I'm super picky about that). However, it absolutely falls short across the top of my foot. It's too tight and causes a fair amount of discomfort when I'm wearing them. I tried loosening the buckle but it didn't help. Oh, well. Back they go! I'll try another style.

This clog is more comfortable and stylish than other Dansko clogs. I wear them with pants but will probably wear with a longish skirt as well. The chestnut color is dark but has a warmth to it and the heel gives a boost to us short folks. I would recommend it to those who enjoy wearing clogs!

Great shoe. Very comfortable and supportive. If you have never worn Dansko's before keep in mind that your heel will always slip. I like the shoe because it's a little dressier than my professional clogs so that I can wear them to work with slacks. I do wish they came in a narrow width though.

Most reviews say the shoes run narrow. And they do, I have fout pairs of Danskos. I wear 39s, they have always worked. I ordered 39 In these and they were way too tight. I have wide feet, and I think that is why Dansko usually works for me. I returned them and I am going to exchange them and try a size 40 and hope that works! They looked super nice like usual, high quality and I love the different style than the regular Mary Janes. As always, Zappos makes online shopping super easy and fun!

I could tell that these shoes would have been an excellent addition to my "collection" if they weren't extremely narrow and tight. These shoes run much more narrow than the typical fit of Dansko's other styles, I do not typically need to wear wide sizes. I did like the shape of the toe and was so looking forward to trying them on. Everything else about them seemed fine, I could tell they would have been my new favorite shoes if they weren't so tight I couldn't even tolerate the pain of standing in them (breaking these in were not an option).

The shoe seems to be about the perfect fit but only with thin socks. I am worried I won't be able to wear them with normal socks. If they stretch that would be great. I have them in a 43 - the biggest they go in woman's so if not, i think i am out of luck. i also wonder if they are too tight - seem to be causing circulation problems. again it would be nice if they stretch. trying not to return these. will walk in the house for a while to make sure.

I love Dansko. These are more narrow than I expected. I believe I have a fairly wide foot. They were a little tight, but fine after a week.

I wear a 41 wide in the Dansko Professional clog and had read that this style of shoe felt narrow, so I ordered the 41 in this too (I'm usually a US 9.5 or so, a Euro 40).
Although this was a nice shoe and it DID fit like the Professional Clog, I'm not keen on having a regular shoe move around like the clog. It slipped off my heel too much, while the toe and arch were very comfortable. I don't think the 40 would fit better (just squeeze my toes more), so I'm returning this. Might try on a 40 if I come across it in a store, but for now I'm sticking with the clog.

This is the first pair of Dansko shoes that I've owned. Bought them because I was recovering from a sprained ankle and needed a good shoe to walk in while on vacation. I wore my tennis shoes at first cause I wasn't sure. But when the tennis shows made my ankles tired, I switched to these shows. They were so comfortable! I'm thank God that I took them and switched to them I was able to walk long distances and stand without any difficulty. I did have to get a 39 (I wear an 8.5 normally). They are higher than I'm used to paying for shoes, but I have not complaint. So far, they are serving me very well.

Very cute shoe. However, they hurt the back of my foot (above my heel) because it is kind of stiff and more "V" shaped in the back rather than rounded like all my other Danskos.

I love these shoes. I normally wear a size 8 so I purchased the size 38. Like some other reviewers, at first I thought these were too small but after adjusting the buckle they fit perfect. I am a production planner in a manufacturing plant. I have an office job that requires often (and quick) movement around a cement floor in a plant. After only one day I am a fan. At the end of the day my day my feet nor knees no longer hurt. The only complaint I had after the first day was that my feet sweat (I had never had this problem before). When I mentioned this to my husband...he said why not use foot powder Problem solved. I am purchasing another pair in a different color.

This shoe seems to be very well constructed and durable, with what seems to be quality leather uppers. Unlike almost every other shoe made for women, to its credit, this one has a very pronounce arch support. They are quite stiff at first, so it might take a while to break them in. I like the thick sole, especially at the front end, which minimizes the height differential between the heel and toe, giving you some lift without the pain of standing in a high-heeled shoe. I ordered this as a casual shoe to wear with jeans instead of sneakers. It's not bad looking, though a little clunky. But for casual wear, that's OK. However, two features caused me to return them. One is that the length is about a half-size bigger than expected, so my heel lifts out of the shoe as I walk. I have medium-wide feet, so it's snug between my heel and toes, and I would think going down a half-size would feel too tight. The other problem is that the toe box is so spacious that I feel that there's not enough support up front. I don't particularly like the look of the toe area either, the way it curves upward, and would have liked it better if it tapered more toward the front of the shoe instead. But if the fit had been perfect, I would have kept them.

I really love this shoe, but over the months that I've had them, they've gotten pretty scuffed and just look worn and not as nice. They are super comfy and cute, I just don't like how they look now, especially worn with my nice work pants - I hate all the scuffs.

These shoes are super cute, but I wear a women's 12 and the 12.5-13 was to short for my foot. My toes were rubbing on the very end of the shoes. Danskos have been pretty good to me, but their women's 12.5-13 sizes (43) are too short for my feet, which is such a bummer because it really cuts down on the styles I can order. Generally, if a shoe says 12.5-13 it will be way to big for my feet, but Dansko must run small. If that ever changes, I will definitely be ordering more of their shoes.

I had the solstice shoe before, and like those, these are true to fit. They are a little snug for the first several wears, but they stretch out and become very comfy. They are stylish and I've gotten a lot of compliments. They are great for work and weekends.

The design of these shoes are so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful but I wish there is more heel cushion and arch support. The cushion and arch support is not enough for long stand hours at work. I have high arch and on my feet 10 hrs a day. It was heartbreaking to return these shoes because I love the design so much that I tried to put Dr. Scholl's gel insoles in but the there is no room to put the insoles in.

When I first put them on it feels tight. But very soon after I get a snug and supportive fit. Will look for other shoes from Dansko.
