Customer Reviews Dansko Olivia

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.

After trying indoors for awhile, I found them to rub on my pinky toe and other side of my foot around my big toe. Also, the "lip" around the shoe opening is rough and rubs. I really wanted to like these as they are really cute, but alas, not for me. I need to wear these at a conference and walk for miles a day. Sadly, these won't work.

I was hoping these would be the one pair of shoes I could wear besides sneakers (since I need to wear orthotics now). I was able to slide my orthotics into these easily, but unfortunately, the shoes were still far too loose in the heel. Sending them back.

Very comfortable. Only worn during a month's period of time and on the crease of the shoe where the foot bends, the patent has cracked and is peeling off. Dansko stated they will replace the shoe once I return this pair to them. I order black patent in other shoes and never have this issue. I really like the comfort of the shoe though so trying another pair and hoping for better luck!

I have the bronze snake and cheetah patterns in these shoes. I really love the look and for some time, they were comfortable for me. Unfortunately, after prolonged wear, these cause me significant pain in my forefoot. I think that part of the shoe simply is not flexible enough for my feet. I am sad, because they are cute and supportive. They do run large. I wear a 7½ in almost all shoes and had to size down to a 36.

The 41 fit my size 11 feet well, but I'm returning them. I'm middle aged, and I think they look matronly. Nothing against the shoe, it's just a matronly style. They are very comfy, and have great arch support. I think they would be great for younger people, or maybe even older people. I got the black hair style, and I thought it would be okay, but the hair creeps me out a bit.

These run wide. I normally have to size up to a 9½ because one foot is bigger, but my feet were sliding in these. Cute style and print, though.

Loved the print and new Dansko look. Comfortable, but wore three times and the "calves hair" wore off in spots where I may have crossed my ankles and the shoes rubbed slightly...don't know. I returned them. I believe they would have been bald soon! Color is also a little bright rather than a subdued animal print.

I love Danskos. I mean, really love them. I currently have 8 pairs of Danskos, sandals and clogs, that I wear to school. So I was disappointed when I received these shoes. They were too short for my feet. I bought my usual size - 40 - but I couldn't stand to walk around my kitchen in them because my big toes were too crowded. After I returned my pair to Zappos, I went to a local shoe store and tried on a 41. They were huge and flopped off my feet as I walked around the store. It's sad that I had to send them back because they are so cute in the brown cobblestone and would look fabulous with both pants and skirts for fall and winter.

The Dansko Olivia are attractive shoes. The width was sufficient for my wide feet, and the length is plenty for my feet that straddle two sizes. I generally wear a 41 in the Dansko clogs, but I chose a 40 in the Olivia because of the other reviews, and those writers were accurate. Unfortunately, the lack of arch support and subsequent pronation of my feet has led me to return the shoes.

Disappointed in these shoes. They looked so cute online but they don't live up to Dansko quality to me. The heel is very wide (and I do not have a narrow foot by any means) and there is no arch support. My feet really tilted inward when I tried them on. Sadly, I will continue my search for a cute dress shoe with support (an impossible search, apparently!).

These shoes have a few issues that kept me from ordering down a size (my usual 39 in Dansko was too large): these shoes pinched my pinkies, and the upturned toe just doesn't work with a flexible shoe. I have sesamoiditis (ball of foot pain behind big toe) and these shoes would have aggravated it.

The fit is all wrong on these shoes. I bought 41 (size 11) and my toes were scrunched up in the toes. So I exchanged them for a size 42 (11½-12). Again, they were way too tight in the toes. I have always worn size 11 I do not know why these do not fit!

Relative to my Professionals, these are quite uncoomfortable, with minimal padding, and very wide heels. They're going back.

I love these shoes but I wish that I could get a half size. The 40 is not long enough, and the 41 slips at the heel. I tried different socks but could not overcome the problem. I normally wear 11 (US) or 43 (EU) women's shoes. I like the bronze pattern - it was subtle but dressy. My orthotic fit into the shoes well. If I could find the correct size, I would wear these shoes all day.

This is a cute shoe but on my foot it looked like a Dutch clog, windmills included. Sorry it must go back!

Tried liking these but they were so uncomfortable. I might have gotten over how unflattering these shoes are if they were comfortable, but sadly they aren't. My feet ached each time I wore these and despite earnest tries at breaking them in, they never did. I had to put these away and will end up just donating them.

After wearing these shoes for two months they have stretched out so much that they have become unwearable, even with thicker socks and a different insole. I did not buy them at Zappos but I wanted to tell others who are thinking of purchasing them.

Bought these after reading positive reviews on how cute and comfortable they are since I have wide feet and its hard to find sensible but cute shoes. These, however, were the opposite. I'm a bit embarrassed wearing them because of how ugly they are and they hurt my feet by the end of the day. The material feels hard and maybe there's a breaking in period, but I doubt I'll be wearing these enough to break them in.

These shoes fit when I first bought them but within a couple of months had stretched out to be too big. Now I wear them with 2 pairs of socks on. Also, the heel was worn down within 1 month of wearing the shoes about 2 times per week. I was surprised because my previous Dansko's lasted years. They are beautiful, though!

Terrific, classic design with the usual Dansko comfort. Don't expect it to fit like a "regular" shoe, though. Without the full coverage over the top of the foot a clog gives, it won't stay on my foot when I walk. It's very wide, especially in the heel. Length seems true to size. If your foot is practically square, go for it; otherwise, look for something else.
