Customer Reviews Dansko Betty

Thank you, Dansko, for making a pretty pump! Looks fab and feels great!

Awesome! I have a large (11) foot and almost narrow foot - impossible to find shoes that fit well. I could wear these all day...the best shoe I have found in a long time. Purchased Black and Brown.

These are cute shoes, but I wish that I would have listened to the other flight attendant that reviewed these shoes. I thought the reputation would justify my investment. That was a waste of money. The bottom of my toes and ball of foot hurt so bad. I too am a Flight Attendant and these shoes really hurt my feet!

I purchased these shoes because of the Dansko name. As a Flight Attendant, everyone I work with knows and loves Dansko. I wish I could say the same about these shoes. Upon trying them on and walking around my home on a carpeted surface, these shoes seemed fine. However, after three hours walking around the airport, my feet were on fire, and I instantly regretted my purchase. Thinking perhaps I just needed an adjustment period, I toughed it out and committed to wearing these for my 4-day trip. By the end of day two, I was shopping around for a new pair of shoes to wear in the middle of my overnight. The thought of wearing them one more day was unbearable. Unfortunately, I couldn't find a uniform-approved replacement, so I was stuck wearing them for two more days. Admittedly, by the end of day four, I was starting to adjust a bit as my feet were starting to go numb. However, I can't commit to giving these shoes another try after how sore and swollen they were from wearing them four days in a row for about 12 hours each day. I'm truly disappointed in these shoes as they feel like they have zero cushioning and no give. While the velcro strap was a nice touch to adjust the shoe (especially convenient as your feet slowly swell while flying), these shoes were just awful. I'm now out the money for a pair of shoes I will never, ever wear again. For less than half the price and quadruple the comfort, purchase yourself a pair of Clarks instead -- don't make my expensive mistake!

I am so glad I didn't go by the reviews of the other flight attendants! I wore these for the first time on my last trip...11 hour days on my feet...and my feet didn't hurt! I mean, not one ache. My only regret is that I didn't buy more than one pair.

I am very happy with the style and comfort of this shoe. In addition, Zappos' customer service is a pleasure to work with. Very helpful!

I love these shoes. I have bad feet and always wear an orthotic. But occasionally it is nice to wear heels for wearing with a dress. Because the inner soul is so high the shoe does not feel out of the ordinary.

I've tried Danskos before, but they never fit me right. These do, and they're very comfortable. The heel takes a little getting used to when I walk (maybe b/c it is at a slightly strange angle?) but I really like these shoes.

These are as comfortable as any of my other six pairs of Dansko clogs. However, they definitely pass the style code when worn with dresses and stockings. I can dance the night away and still take care of my knees and spine.

Love these shoes! Different style than the usual clog from Dansko but still same comfort. The strap is adjustable, which is a nice feature. And they're super cute with dresses & skirts!

I love these! Got them in Patent Black. I am a teller, so I'm on my feet all day long and then some. These feel great (I practically forget that I'm wearing a heel, because they're so sturdy) and meet my young-person "business casual" standards. I'd definitely buy another pair in brown!

I love Dansko. If you need Maryjanes that you can actually walk in - these are they. Don't have the same effect on gentlemen as the high-heeled version, but being able to stand up all day is worth it.

I have extremely wide feet and am normally a size 8, so I sized up a half size. I tried these out at work. They are a little stiff (Danksos usually are) but the arch support makes up for that. They are way cuter than any of the other Danskos I have seen!

I bought these for much son's wedding this past weekend. I always wear Dansko because of my back and knew this day would be even more important to have good shoes. My friends teased me not to wear grandma shoes. These were not that, they are super classy and dressy with black patent and strap design. Truth is I didn't take them off until end of dance!

I am a Dansko fan, and usually keep every shoe I order...but this one will go back only because I ordered the patent, and it appears a bit too much like a stage/tap shoe. But the comfort and style are great. In something other than patent, I would recommend it.

I like these shoes, and for work-dressy shoes, they are pretty comfortable. Still, they aren't quite a comfy as I'd hoped from other reviews. I have arthritis, have had it (Juvenile onset) since I was 16, but it's only really starting to get bad now that I'm in my thirties. All my old heels had to be given away recently because they are excruciating by lunch time. These I can wear them all day to work, where I'm not on my feet all day, but at the end my feet are a little tender. I can wear Danskos baker boots all day and not be tender, but sometimes you just want to wear heels, you know? If you don't have arthritis, these will probably be some of the comfiest heels you've ever worn. If you do, these will do (And they're very cute!) but don't expect them to solve all of your foot pain problems.

I am a huge fan of Danskos. I have always found them so comfortable, even the shoes that are not the professional series. I own a few pairs of them with heels, and wedges. I have wanted this style for some time and when they went on sale I pounced! I wear around an 8 - 8.5 shoe size, and all of my other Danskos are a size 39. I have tried on a size 38 in different styles and they were all too small for my feet. I orders the Betty in a 39 and they fit perfect everywhere but the heel. They feel like the traditional clog, where your heel lifts up when you step. I am going to keep them, as they are comfortable everywhere else, and I know a size down will be too small in the ball of the foot area and around the top of my foot, and I will almost always be wearing them with pants so the gap in the heel won't be noticeable to anyone but myself. They are crazy cute, love the patent leather look.

I love the idea of this shoe. I wish they had pushed it a little further, dropped the opening on top of the foot to show a little toe cleavage and not gone asymmetrical. If you're going to lean it down and go stylish, you should just go for it. I am still happy I bought these though. Danskos save my feet, and these are no different. Plus I don't have the issue with rolling my ankle like I do in the clogs that are a bit wider and have no way to adjust

I first spotted these shoes a few months ago and was immediately smitten with them - my favorite type of work shoe is a black mary jane, and I loved the look of these; and it was an added bonus that they were Dansko. But when I hopped onto Zappos to buy them, I hesitated because I saw the mixed reviews about their comfort. After a few months of keeping an eye on the incoming reviews, I finally decided to give them a try. After two days of wearing them at work, I really like them - they are wider than I expected (a good thing for me), and the toe box is quite roomy. They aren't the cushiest shoes ever, so I agree with other reviewers that these wouldn't be the best choice for someone who is on their feet all day. But for a standard office environment with a typical amount of daily walking, they're totally fine. Very happy with my purchase.

Very comfortable. Great shoes. I am returning them because I wanted something a bit more modern and stylish.

These shoes are beautiful, but, they did not fit! I always wear a 38 in Dansko, but that was a full size too big. So I got the 37, that was too tight in the toes. Bummer! These just will not fit me, I guess.

Loved the style of these shoes, disappointed in the fit. Not as comfortable as I expected, not enough padding in foot bed, too wide and long.

I have been a Dansko fan for years, owning around a dozen pairs in various styles. I have wanted the Betty style for a long time and finally took the plunge and made the purchase online. Unfortunately, these shoes are uncomfortable. Not a little bit - a lot. I wore then for two hours and was in pain for two days afterwards. I cannot bear to try them again, for fear of the pain. What a shame, because they are really cute.
