Customer Reviews Dansko Professional

My primary problem was with the arch support. I have 2 older pairs of Danskos and the arch is significantly higher. I had a recent injury in the arch and really needed the added support. Will be returning

Echo the comment about tight instep. I have worn Danskos for years and always the same size. The regular width was really tight. May try the non-professional style. Wondering if there is comparison info about the width.

I've worn Dansko clogs for 15 years now. I Loved them, However now that their made in china they fit different. Old Fit MUCH BETTER. Had to return them and switch brands as they don't come in half sizes.

I have worn Dansko clogs before. I wore my last pair for about 10 years (not every day) before they fell apart. They are excellent shoes for standing work. My last pair was Black and I think I had similar size challenges. I am afraid I don't have that original pair any longer so I'm not sure of the exact size but I remember that I had to buy a size or 2 up, then order Narrow to help keep them on my feet. These red ones aren't available in Narrow so I referred to the size chart. I first ordered 41 because my normal size is 10.5 - 11, depending on the shoe style. The 41 was too small. I was able to put them on but there was no room to wear socks. I returned them and ordered 42 (which should fit US size 11.5 - 12). These are a better fit but my big toe touches the inside of the shoe when I'm wearing socks (which I need to do). I'm keeping them because I don't think I could keep them on my feet if they were any larger. I thought I'd share this information for others - I don't have this challenge with other shoes. (Sometimes 11s are too big)

Just love the Shoe and color however in all the 25 years I have worn Dansko's this pair is very wide and longer than any size 38 I purchased. First tie I am returning a pair of clogs........just do not fit properly.

I have had these shoes for exactly two years and the leather on one shoe is peeling! Moderate wear, well cared for, and no exposure to rain or snow. I own two other pairs of Danskos which I have had for 10 or more years, and have never seen this happen. Disappointing!

The Dansko Professional clog, NARROW, felt ok in the toe box and length- but the measure around the arch/middle of foot was too wide, and the shoe slipped off even with the lightest movement. I compared these to the same shoe I already had- purchased 10 years ago- which still fit comfortably snug around the middle of the foot, and do not slip off. Very disappointed.

This particular item is a mis-marked product. It is not a Narrow. I have enjoyed Dansko Narrow clogs for over 25 years. They are a fantastic clog for a narrow foot. Unfortunately, this pair is definitely a medium. I could not keep my narrow feet in them when I tried them on. The inside marking states it is a narrow but it definitely is not. They are a comfortable and finely made clog though.

These were a little wider than I would expect a narrow width to be. Also, they were heavy. I returned them.

Wish Dansko would get their sizing consistent!

We ordered these in a 37 Narrow, which my wife has been wearing for about 15 years. They were too wide in the heel, and the flopped around on her feet. At the same time, we ordered a 36, which was only available in Normal width, and they also flopped around on her foot. Obviously, Dansko has changed the design of these shoes over the years. A similar shoe from Dr. Schools fit much better.

Very disappointed. I've been wearing Dansko professionals for years and they seem to have changed the sizing. They are longer and narrower than previous versions. I've tried wearing them in for awhile but they seem to hit my arch in the wrong place and are causing blisters on my pinky toe and heel.

The color is great. They are too wide. I’m a bit disappointed. I’m a nurse and I have been wearing these for 40 years. I bought a new pair because mine are 5 years old and stretched out. These new ones feel the same

I have narrow feet and I ordered the narrow, but the shoes were wayyyyy too wide. No way you could wear no socks with them or thin socks.

This is weird, but one shoe was significantly bigger than the other and both said it was a size 38. I've been consistently a size 38 with my previous Dansko's, but when I received this the left shoe fit perfect like my old Dansko's, but the right shoe felt like it was one size bigger. I just got off the phone with customer service so they are taking care of exchanging the shoes for another pair of size 38. Hopefully this next pair both fit perfect. It's just unfortunate I got the bad lemon. The customer service was excellent and they took care of everything on their end. I'll wait to receive my new pair to see if they work.

I ordered a size 40 and the box said size 40 but the clogs inside the box were a size 41. i called the zappos number and was assisted very efficiently and the shoes should be picked up for return thru UPS today. Unfortuntaly there was not another pair available in my size and choice of color.

The clogs were a bit wide for my feet even with heavy socks. I wore them for an afternoon and was surprised that my feet continued to hurt for two days.

First of all, these "black tooled" shoes are not black. They are black and gray, and I don't know how anyone could ever polish them without getting black polish in the gray grooves. That being said, I was surprised when these shoes came in 1/4 inch shorter than my previous Danskos of the same size. They were too short, and I had to return them as my toe hit the inside of the toebox. I ended up getting a similar pair at a local shoe store, where I learned that there are size discrepancies in Dansko clogs depending on where they are made. ( China or Mexico) The new 39s from China that I purchased locally fit me fine and are the exact same length as the pair I got last year. Unless I can determine beforehand where the clogs are made, I don't see how I can order these shoes online anymore.

I will agree with some of the other reviewers...the quality of this clog has DEFINITELY gone downhill. Despite wearing the same size for 20 years, I have to order multiple shoes OF THE SAME SIZE in order to find the correct one (and they’re all the same size, just not fitting the same). The quality is lacking. Dansko have always been my standby...I wear them ALL the time at work. There are times I pull 7 or 8 24-hour shifts in a row, and when the clog is right, my back knows it. They used to last forever, but now they start breaking down more quickly. It’d be refreshing for this feedback to reach Dansko, as it’s repeatedly commented on by these reviewers, and have them DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. Until they do, I’ll look elsewhere...I’ve grown weary of running back and forth to the UPS store to return shoes that should fit, but don’t.

I wore Dansko's about 20 years ago and loved them . . . until they switched up production venues and the shoes no longer fit. I went to Sanita for clogs, and I'm not thrilled about how long they last, but whatever, they fit. So when my latest pair fell apart and the sole disintegrated, I thought I'd try Dansko's again just to make sure. I still find that the volume of the shoe is small -- it fits front to back, but the space between the sole and top of my foot is really cramped making it impossible to even go up/down in size. So I guess if you have a "high volume" foot (as they say in hockey skate parlance) these are not for you!

What is going on with Dansko? I reordered the same size and style as my previous order in 2018 and what I received is way too large and so wide open in the back, I step right out of them. This is a completely different fit from before and they are unwearable. PS: I tried a smaller size and still stepped right out of them too. I have been wearing Danskos forever as my go-to shoe and now I can't wear them.

This is my third pair of Dansko non-slip clogs. I had to send the first pair back as they were too big (my other 2 pair are size 39). The size 38 fit ok but they were very slippery on our restaurant floor. By the end of the night my feet were throbbing, back aching and hips burning. I have NEVER experienced this with either of my previous clogs (I own one pair of XP20 and one regular)I'm sending them back and ordered another pair of the XP20 for more arch support. I'm still a huge fan of your clogs and was excited about the tan pair for spring/summer) Too bad the XP20 doesn't come in the lighter colors.

New sizing for Dansko. These are a lot bigger than my other ones this size.

Too big , did not feel like my past Dansko Professional shoes I have. Disappointing.

I have been a loyal Sanita customer for 15 years, but they were out of stock of my usual size so I decided to try Dansko's now that they have narrow size. Very disappointed. Their 40N (same size as I wear in Sanita) were way too roomy. That is definitely not my definition of narrow sizing. Feeling very frustrated that what has worked well for me for so long is proving very difficult to replace.
