Words cannot express how much I love these shoes. I'm on my feet all day, plus I'm dealing with chronic foot pain. These shoes give me everything I need: excellent support, no painful pressure points (especially in the width), plus they have a sense of style with the patterned calfskin!

I fell in love with this shoe! When you have feet issues like I do, it's awful to sacrifice style for comfort. I don't have to with Dansko...and this shoe was the moccasin I was looking for. So stylish - and still comfortable.

Love the shoes. I have received compliments. I always feel Dansko shoes are very durable in all types of weather. True to size. Try them. Can't go wrong with Zappos!

I ordered the Black Patent after trying the Cheetah Hair Calf in a store. A 41 is my normal size and it fit great. The Patent was extremely tight. I do not know if it was miss marked or the Patent runs smaller. I am ordering the Bronze Snake to try.

Love this shoe from Dansko. I have worn many Dansko's over the years and they are so comfortable. They have gone one better now! A shoe that does not look like a clog but has all the comfort of the clogs! And the Cheetah print is a winner. Thanks Zappos for great service and for carrying such great shoes!

I'm really happy with these shoes! I am a big Dansko fan and needed some dressier shoes. These offer the same comfort and arch support of Dansko clogs, but in a shoe that can be worn on dressy occasions. There has been zero breaking-in period (blisters, sore feet, waiting for the shoes to stretch a bit, etc.) -- super comfortable from the very start. Highly recommended!

I love that Dansko created a great shoe with a shorter heel. The feel of the shoe is awesome and the styling is very nice. Sadly, the size 41 for my 10.5 foot was too short for my left foot. They are heading back to Zappos via their great return policy.

The footbed felt true to size, but slips on the heels when walking. The smaller size was too short. I added a heel insert and now they are perfect. More stylishly versatile that then clogs, but with the same comfort.

These shoes felt fine when I first tried them on. So I decided to keep them and commenced wearing them. After about two hours, the place where they bend while walking begin to hurt my toes. Too late to send them back, I have been trying to stretch them out some. Even though tight they are comfortable (if that makes sense) but I wish they were half a size larger. They are very understated and look nice. I got them to take on a trip this summer, they will not take up a lot of room in the suitcase.

Beautiful shoe. Unfortunately, the heel scraps against my ankle when I walk. The shoe is so stylish that I will try to use moleskin rather than return it. Otherwise, the fit is good. It is nice and wide and my toes are not cramped.

Perfect style, however, I am a 9 1/2 WW. I ordered the 40 regular and they were way too small then realized that I needed at least a 41. Will try that but patent leather material makes for a more snug fit and that's no good for me. Great looking shoe though, especially since I need stylish and ultra support.

This is a really stylish Dansko. Unfortunately I was between sizes. I'm usually a 10 in a shoe and the 41 were too short and the 42 were a good length, but way too wide. For someone with wider feet, this shoe would be a dream. I have been looking for a supportive shoe that still has some cuteness to it. Thought this was going to be it. When you put them on, your feet almost sigh with relief. So comfortable. Wish so much the sizing would have been right for me.

Very nice quality shoe. I own other Dansko shoes in various styles and this pair seemed to run large and I am disappointed to have to return it. It was too large to stay on my foot and kept slipping off the heel - I am hopeful that the smaller size will work for me, as this is an attractive and well made shoe.

I needed exactly this, however, I am a 9½WW and I ordered the 9½-10 and at first they felt great so I threw the box away but after two hours on my feet as a hairdresser they were so tight. I need another size up unless it is just that the top of my foot will always be too large for this fit.

I loved this shoe, so cute; however, when I received it and put it on it was large in the heel and slipped easily. I only wear a size 5.5 so have trouble finding shoes that fit and now am developing very painful feet and easily break toes so need to find good shoes to wear. I am returning these and trying a different style from Danskos, as well as two different brands, to see if it is just this style or if I cannot wear Danskos at all. So thankful for Zappos and the opportunity to find my size and give them a try. Returns are always easy but with wearing a small size I really hope they don't mind my trying so many before I find a fit and shoe that works!

Most comfortable shoe ever! My feet feel so wonderful after a day of wearing these shoes. I feel like I stand taller, my back does not ache at the end of the day, and I highly recommend this shoe for those who are having back aches and knee pain. I somewhat regret choosing the calf hair as it looks silly with some outfits. I should have opted for the leather skin but overall, I'm very happy with my purchase.

Shoe is really comfortable! unfortunately, I find the curved up toe and rounded toe (view from the top) is not as fashion forward as I would like. The black calf hair is shiny, so maybe in basic black suede/ matte leather wouldn't reflect so much light and be less noticeable. Did I say it was really comfortable though?

The first two weeks were the most painful thing ever. I thought about returning them until someone gave me hope saying they would wear in. Sure enough they did and are now the most comfy work shoes I could ask for. Stick out the pain. It's worth it.

I'm glad that Dansko is making shoes that are more stylish. I'm between a 9.5 & 10 and I have the Dansko Olivia in size 41 so I ordered this in a 41. It was too big for me so it's going back.

I have a flat foot, so the Dansko arch support is awesome. However, it makes the shoe feel a bit narrow. After 'breaking in the shoe' it is a little better, but not for a day with lots of walking.

I have worn Danskos for years and love how they fit and cushion my foot while providing lots of support. I have almost always worn a size 42, which fits my foot well. This shoe, however, runs large, so I tried both a size 42 and and a size 41, but both have to be returned. Too bad, as it's a super cute shoe, seems very supportive, and would be great for travel. Thanks to Zappos for making the overall process very easy.

I love Dansko clogs, however this shoes was so wide on my foot that even with an insert it was way too big. Wish that Dansko made narrows. I don't usually wear a narrow.

I love Dansko shoes. This style is very nice looking but seems to run very small. I will exchange for a larger size.

Nice, comfortable shoe; however, it runs a bit narrow so I have to return it. Wish they came in wider sizes.

Cute but pinched the tops of my toes with the dip in the top of the shoe. Did not work for my feet.
