Customer Reviews Dansko Professional

Beautiful shoes, very comfortable, and well worth the price.

Danskos are the best! I bought my first pair 17 years ago and they just gave out last month! This time around, I purchased a Professional in 'Cordovan Cabrio' (the same color I've had for 17 years), a Professional in 'Distressed Honey' and an XP 2.0 in Brown Pull Up. I must admit that the XP 2.0's are extremely comfortable...yes, even more comfortable than the Professionals. However, I am not in the health care profession, and alas, I must be a little more vain than I thought, because I just don't like the shape of the toe on the XP 2.0. The Professional has that perfectly round "snub-nosed" toe that is so cute with jeans and the XP 2.0 does not...it just looks a little more like an old lady shoe than the Professional. So, the XP's are going back. Don't get me wrong...if I was on my feet for 12 hours a day the XP 2.0's would be the way to go...no questions asked! But...Dansko, why do we have to sacrifice cuteness for comfort? Can't you make the XP 2.0's as cute as the Professionals? And, in case you're thinking of purchasing a Professional, they are plenty comfortable, so go for it! A note about size...the Cordovan Cabrio color in a 40 (the size I had for 17 years) is snug around the middle of my foot (where there's that little padded band). The Distressed Honey in a 40 is super loose and fits more like my old worn-in pair. I think I'm going to have to return the Cordovan Cabrios for a 41 and see if that helps. Like other reviewers have said, the sizing on these is all over the place! If the 41 does not work, I may keep the 40 and try to stretch that part out. It's so snug that it cuts my circulation off. The Distressed Honey pair does not do that at all, and there's a bit more room in the heel too...almost like it's a size 40.5 or a 41...hmmm...

What you expect.

I use Danskos for my 12hr shifts in my feet at the hospital

This is my first pair of Danskos and I am very pleased with them. Purchased to wear in the hospital as a medical professional. Extremely comfortable. Love the height. Was worried about sizing since I have quite a narrow, size 8 foot and went with the size 38 in the normal width. Plenty of toe box room, easy to walk in. Can't wait for my next pair!

Love!

Love them!!

Fit perfect and comfortable. Wore them for the full 14 hr shift. Without sore feet or legs.

Thank you Dansko! My sister is struggling to recover from foot surgery in a cro boot and battling sore knees, hips, and back with such a difference in heel height. I ordered a pair of Dansko's and it is a hit! No longer at a disadvantage with shoe height, she feels so much better. I score extra points because the style is almost identical in material and it looks like her shoes match. The shoe(s) are supportive, lightweight, professional, and easy to clean. Now, if anyone needs the other shoe...

So happy Zappos has this shoe in wide. It fits! I have a high instep so the regular Danskos don't fit. This one fit the bill

I am a bartender and on my feet constantly for 10 hours plus a day. I swear by these shoes. They do take some getting used to in the beginning, but they are awesome. They are non slip and my feet are always supported. Highly recommend!!!!

I broke my foot 4 months ago. After wearing an air cast for 10 weeks, I could not find a shoe that gave my foot the support it needed. Every other shoe would feel good for an hour or two, then my arch would roll in and hurt the spot I had broken. I got these shoes 3 days ago and have worn them over 14 hours a day, every day since then! My foot feels great!! I can walk again.

They always feel a bit tight when I first wear them, due to my bunions. ( I am unable to get a wide width as the heel will be much too wide for me). But they soon feel nearly perfect. Basically all I wear are these clogs, pretty much every day. I have them in several colors, the black oiled being my favorite. They are the most comfortable shoes I own. When I am not in sneakers, I am in these clogs!

What's not to like? I've been wearing these fo 20 years and appreciate their support and quality. Felt it was true to Dansko size. I am a 10.;5 in most shoes, and wear a 41 in Danskos (42 in Naots!)

Love this color. Dark rich brown. Goes with everything.

I was a little skeptical at first because in the past I had always ordered a 38 in dansko clogs because I wore an 8 in us sizes, or so I thought, but this time I ordered a 39 because I stand in one place for many hours at a time and my feet end up swelling by the end of the day. This was a great choice because now after 12 hours my feet still have room and these clogs are very comfy. I love the matte color in the brown. Also I am kinda hard to please so this says a lot for me.

I ordered a pair of these Professional Danskos a month or so ago. They fit so well I decided to order another pair to have on hand. Unfortunately, the second pair didn't fit as well. All it took was a phone call to Zappos and I had another pair in hand the next day that was an excellent fit. I am very impressed with Zappos' service.

Been wearing Dansko for years for the arch and ankle support. Expensive, yes, but the shoes last for years.

Loved the shoe! Not ideal for fashion weeks runway but it does its job and that’s what I was looking for!

my orthopedist recommended these shoes because I have arthritis in both feet...they have been a game changer. took a day to get used to.

I love Dansko, and have been wearing them for years. I love the patent leather, and they fit my feet perfectly. I wear them to work and with jeans on a daily basis. Highly recommended!!

I wear a size 8 and have a moderately wide foot and these feel great. Love the color and finish. Very nice for fall.

I bought these in 2013 , 5 years later they are in perfect shape (and I've worn them a lot!). Have long hours of standing,not only are they comfortable but I've not experienced foot/calf pain.

I love these shoes for my 12 hour work shifts! In the past I have worn a 37 on Dansko but had to size up to a 38 in this pair.

Used them for work. Clogs are expected to be wider, which may be why they felt a half size wider to me. However, I wear them in the winter, which means wool socks and that helps! In the summer, wearing them sockless would be out of the question. Dansko clogs are classic, so basically nothing can go wrong.
