Customer Reviews Dansko Shayla

Like other reviews I bought these to wear on the treadmill. They did not work for me. The heel slips as they do with the Dansko Clogs. Not sure if that's they way they are designed but for me it is not a good fit. Going back.

I really wanted to like this shoe, but I don't. First of all, most of the upper material is synthetic not leather. For me it doesn't tie up tight or stay tied. I fight a constant battle to keep my shoes tied tightly. Because I can't tie them tight, my feet slide and turn out, which is no good. Unfortunately, I found this out the hard way when I wore these to school on a Friday. I usually LOVE Danskos and recommend them to anyone who will ask, but these are a no-go for me.

I do not believe any kind of athletic event could be completed wearing these shoes. I have all kinds of issues and reading reviews I thought maybe they would offer support from the ground up -- they are not especially comfortable and definitely could not withstand lateral movement of any kind. The appearance of these shoes only is bearable if the support is there, without that - they are unattractive at best. Sorry...hate these and love ZAPPOS tho!

I bought these shoes because I love to walk, but with a recent bout of plantar fasciitis, I knew I needed a shoe with good arch support. I've been wearing Dansko clogs for a while and trusted that these sneakers would be as comfortable. Sadly, that's not the case for me. The toe box, although it looks wide enough, really made my bunions flare up...to the point of being very red and sore. I've worn them outside and enough times thinking they would break in, so I can't in good conscience return them, but I can't recommend them either.

For the price, this shoe is the most uncomfortable, no support, hard to walk in shoe I have ever purchased. They are not flexible at all so when you walk the don't bend and sound like you are walking in swim flippers!

I have been a Dansko's fan for years both with recreational and professional footwear but the Dansko Shayla sneakers are a real disappointment. For the cost they seem flimsy and do not provide the support and comfort I have come to expect with this company. I do like the color and styling but that doesn't compensate for the rest. Sorry Dansko, you really blew it on this one.

Not worth the money some of the threads are coming loose, not enough traction on sole. Have only had these shoes 6 months and have worn very little!

I wear Dansko clogs, so I had high hopes for these. I found them to be extremely uncomfortable. Hard to believe when you look at them. After only 5 minutes on the treadmill, I had to change shoes. Felt like I was walking on nothing. They look well-padded, but that's not how they felt to me. (I do have "skinny" feet, i.e., very little padding. But I expected better from Dansko.) Also, the heel slips a lot. Cute, but not comfortable.
