Customer Reviews Dansko Professional

I have flat feet and loved these unfortunately they are made more narrow than precious models and hit all my sensitive spots on top of my foot and pinky toes. Love the look so hoping to find another similar pair but more comfortable like the pairs my mum has purchased.

this dansko is the far worst shoe I ever did get from you. It hurts my calves making it tired during the duration of my shifts. I would never advise anyone to get these shoe.

Feels cheaply made.

As much as I want to love these shoes, they just don't work for me. They hopelessly slip at my heels making walking in them nearly impossible. I do have narrow ankles and it's not uncommon for me to have this issue. If you're like me, these may not work. Other styles of danskos do fit me well so it may just be this particular style.

I've loved Danskos for years...well over a decade. I wore wore stapled clog Mary Jane sandals all over Europe for 10 months. I've had several other sandals as well and have loved them until the soles gave out and cracked. These were shiny in the Cabrio and looked cheap. It scratched easily as well. The lift in the heel these shoes have and are supposed to have feels strange and uncomfortable. Many swear by these shoes, but they just didn't work for me.

I bought these shoes because my doctor told me that was the only way he was letting me out of a boot after breaking my foot in 4 places. I know everybody says how comfortable they are, but honestly, I just don't get it. To me they are clumsy feeling because the sole is completely rigid. They sort of made me rock on them, which I was used after 8 weeks in the boot anyways. I know nothing probably would have felt great as my foot was still healing, but these just seemed uncomfortable to me (even on my good foot). I still have them, and wear them from time to time just to see if maybe they are comfortable now that I'm healed, but like I already said, I just don't get what all the hype is about these shoes. Maybe you have to break them in or something, and I just don't wear them enough to accomplish that. These were my first pair, and also my last unless they suddenly become as comfy as everybody says they are. I'm glad they work for so many, but my experience has not proven that theory.

I've been buying these shoes for years. This one felt too big. Also, wish they looked nicer!

Runs large, my heels were coming out of the back when I walked. I used to get the Timberland Pro removal but they've been discontinued. The search for the perfect 12 hour day work show will go on. Needless to say I returned these heavy clunkers.

Tight instep! This style has changed since a few years ago -- the instep is incredibly tight. I don't have a high instep, but found these to be so tight (even with very thin socks) that it was cutting off my circulation! If you have a very low instep, go for it. Otherwise, skip it!

I have been wearing Dansko's for 30+ years. I have one pair left that have seen better days and desperately want to replace them. Dansko's are the only shoes that keep my knee's and feet comfortable all day long. I have always fit into a size 40 (my shoe size is 9). My foot is slightly narrow so I was excited to see I could get these in a narrow width. Unfortunately the 40's are too big and not as narrow as I'd hoped. I wanted to exchange for the 39 narrow but they are out of stock. I also ordered a pair of Sanita's in size 41 as I recently received a pair in size 40 and they were too small. The 41's are too big.

I love these clogs but both this pair and a pair one size smaller were too short. I always wear size 11N and I loved the width but I will try another brand.

I want these shoes to fit my feet so bad....but they just don't. They slide right off my heel which makes it impossible for me to walk comfortably. They fit fine everywhere else so I don't think a smaller size will solve my problem. It's too bad because they're beautiful shoes!

I bought a pair of the Dansko XP Professionals last week. Size 42 Wide, black. LOVE them. Wanted to get a pair in brown so I'd have work shoes covered. I ordered these in 42 wide and they didn't fit at all like my XP Pros! Felt half a size smaller, and didn't feel wide at all. I don't understand why the exact same size from the same company should fit and feel so different. I even put the shoes side by side and could see that these were indeed smaller and less wide than the XP Pros. I have ordered a size 43 Wide in these to exchange them. I hope these fit like they should. If not I guess I'll have to stick to the XP's only.

I wear Dansko's to work and I own several pair, I was really disappointed with these blue ones though because when they scratch the base color is white,,,not blue. So now i have little white scratches all over the toes and it's a pretty big bummer, they look several years old and I've only had them a few months. Other than that, same great fit and comfort I expect from Dansko's.

It kills me to write this review. I've been a very happy, very loyal Dansko wearer for 25 years. This pair feels different from previous pairs. It's not nearly as comfortable, and my usual size doesn't fit me quite as well. (I suppose it's possible that my feet have changed, not the shoes, in that regard.) I wore them out and about before realizing that my old trusted shoes weren't feeling so good, so I can't return them and try again. I can wear these, and will wear them, but they don't make my feet happy the way Danskos usually do.

Love the color, true to picture shown. I have many Dansko clogs and this style size is much larger will return in hopes of receiving better fit

I wear a woman's 10.5N. Ordered the 41N and they were too short. The 42N fit great. These are supremely comfortable. I see why chefs rely on them. They're really cute, too.

I have wide feet (thanks to having broken the smallest toe on both feet and having them heal up a bit angled out) and a bad back. I have one pair of Dansko's and they help my back a lot, but they are too narrow and feet always hurt a lot. I tried this shoe in a wide width, but it is still too narrow. I wish they had more room in the toe box, but I have to send these back.

Definitely go up a size when ordering these! They aren't as comfortable as I was expecting. Maybe I just need more time to break them in. I will definitely get the XP ones next time! Only problem with the matte ones is that they scuff really easy too.

I loved this shoe. Was exactly what I was looking for as far as heel height, quality of workmanship and appearance. Alas, the heel is so sloppy big I couldn't keep my feet inside the shoe. Must return.

I wanted to like these shoes but they didn't fit my high arch.

It was supposed to be a narrow but this pair felt too wide; I could not keep my feet in the shoes. I will have to return these and try my luck ordering another pair. I had this experience the last time I bought these same shoes.

Danskos are the best shoes for me. I'm a teacher and spend my days walking on concrete floors. Danskos give me the support that I need so my feet and legs aren't aching at the end of the day. Unfortunately, this pair is so tight across the instep of my LEFT foot, I can barely stand to wear them. I have to agree with the other reviewers that the fit of this shoe is different from past Dansko clogs. And, sadly, I wore them to work thinking that they would stretch out so now I can't even return them. An expensive mistake...live and learn.

I think these would have been good shoes for my application, but the recommended size was too short for my foot and I couldn't go to a larger size because my heel already slipped in the narrow width.

It's really hard for me to know what to rate. I have two Dansko Professional pair - one in black and one in blueberry. I love the blueberry. The black causes me so much pain, which I've never experienced in a shoe before. It's been over a year and I still can't wear them for more than a few hours a day, so I almost never wear them to work. I actually made the mistake of wearing them to work about 4 days ago and so I was in them for about 10 hours. It's four days later and my feet are still cramped and sore from wearing them. I'm so confused because again, the blueberry is the exact same style and I've worn them for over 16 hours and they're amazing. No issues at all. I don't understand but I'm definitely give up on the black pair.
