Customer Reviews Dansko Riley

The 1st pair I received I had to return because the strap/screws on the right shoe came out. Returned and replaced no hassle, superb customer service! They are the perfect length but snug around the width so I only wear with knee high stockings. They are comfy despite the snugness in the width and I love the height and thickness of the shoe. They look cute with everything from jeans to dresses.

Wonderful twist on the standard dansko. I love the heel. I love the slightly more narrow silhouette. I'm a 9.5/10 and the 40s fit perfectly. No rubbing. No pain at all. Awesome.

As a general rule, I am not into clogs/comfort shoes; however, a knee injury has forced me to explore this world. These are comfortable right out of the box, absorb all the impact of walking on city streets, and are actually quite cute. A random stranger complimented me on them the other day. Only 1 negative: they're a bit noisy. They flip flop in the heel a bit when you walk, and the sound of the footbed losing contact with my skin makes a subtle sticking sound. Not a deal breaker for me, but could be an issue for others.

These are great shoes! So much style...kind of Euro look and very comfortable considering the heel height. They run true to size...not as wide as the typical Dansko clog. I have a pair of Stuart Wietzman that were much more expensive and kill my feet every time I try to wear them...I am sticking to European made shoes...what is with American shoe designers? Are they forgetting that we actually put our feet in these?! It is so surprising that the Dutch can make a shoe with a heel made of wood and it feels better that most everything we buy here in the US including some running shoes! Definitely give these a try...a little more of a sticker shock, but I know that I will wear these for many years! Great quality.

I bought the brown Dansko Rileys for work. I love them because they look great with dress pants and for a higher shoe they are very comfortable. I ended up buying the black too.

Nice round top, just like a clog, don't get fooled by the picture! Feels comfortable and provides a good arch support; the color of leather (I got mine in brown) is lighter than in the picture, but can be remediated by applying some dark shoe polish, possibly, hopefully. A great shoe!

Love these shoes. I've worn them all day every day for three days and even kept them on when I got home from work. Not a single sore spot on either foot. I normally wear a 7 or 7.5 so I got the 38 and it's perfect. I could walk miles in these and they're pretty cute too. Less clunky than other Danskos but still a solid shoe that looks like it will last for years. Well worth the money.

This clog/heel combo totally rocks. I'm a school counselor & I needed something comfortable, but professional. I ordered my usual 40 in Dansko & they fit perfectly...they're cute with skirts, dresses and business casual pants. I'll definitely get my money out of these!

These are the best heels! They fit me the same way that Birkenstocks and my Haflinger Clogs fit - so if you know your sizes in those brands, go with the same on these. These shoes don't feel like you are wearing heels at all - they are so easy to walk in, and so comfortable, but they add nice height and have the stylish-ness of a heel. I am going to buy the same shoe in black - these are my go to work shoes now! They are seriously the best!

I love these. I am a Kindergarten teacher, I am also seven months pregnant right now. So, I am on my feet a lot, and unable to wear the majority of my glorious shoes. I am down to sneakers and a pair of Mary Jane Danskos (the Margies). I needed something for Kinder Ceremony and upcoming showers that kind of held my feet in, gave me some height, and wee attractive. These shoes have done it! They were on my feet for 10 hours, and they were comfortable. I normally wear a 38, but because these are not your typical Danskos (they are more narrow) and because I am pregnant I went with a 39. They are absolutely perfect, And I suspect even if I were not pregnant the 39 was the better choice, for my wider feet.

These are very nice shoes but they run small. I never take shoes larger than 8½. The description says 8½-9 but they are too small. Boo. Thanks.

These are nice looking shoes on. Unfortunately they ran so large that I could not get a true feel for comfort. I had ordered other shoes at the same time that I have decided to keep over these, so I am not trying a smaller size.

I tried these shoes on at a local shoe store, so I already knew they would fit. My store just didn't have the color I wanted. I love them.

These are cute and good quality, but a little less comfortable than my other Dansko heels. Will still keep and wear, but not the go-to shoes that my other Dansko Betty heels are.

Definitely well worth every penny! These are so unbelievably comfy and cute too! I can wear them with work slacks, casual skirts or skinny jeans.

So in love with these shoes! They are cute and oh so comfortable. No breaking in period required. They give a great boost in height and best of all...no pedicure required. Definitely going to wear out this pair.

This is a beautiful and comfortable shoe. I wore it for 12 hours straight the first time, and had no problem. It is true to size and width.

I love these shoes! I've been wearing Danskos for years, but these are amazing! I wore the black pair last night on a flight from Reno to Portland. While taking the MAX to the hotel, I ordered the brown pair. Why? Because they are cute and amazing! I'm wearing them at a career fair right now...super comfortable. And did I mention they are cute and amazing?!

I love this pair of clogs. I can wear them all day and my feet don't hurt! I enjoy the fact that I can dress them up while not compromising comfort as I'm on my feet all day at work.

I love this shoe! So comfortable overall - not just for a high heel. And very cute. I got several compliments on them the first day I wore them. Good-looking, higher heels, comfortable - not much more I can ask for.

Excellent shoes! Traditional Dansko feel but in heels. I stand for hours at a time and these are amazing shoes for me!

More stylish in person! I got the brown and the color is awesome. I wear a 38 in clogs and a 37 in open back. Ordered the 37 and the fit is consistent! Super happy with these shoes. Very versatile!

Cute funky shoe that isn't clunky and goes with dresses and pants. More of a causal shoe. I had a bit of a breaking in period as they gave my baby toes blisters. Other than that, very comfortable.

I have spent a lifetime -- some 35 years or so -- in Danskos. I like to walk around during my day, and I like to look sharp. The Margrete was my go-to shoe AND WHERE IS IT? Dansko doesn't make it any more. Instead, the Dansko are getting trendier BUT THEY ARE NOT MORE COMFORTABLE. To me, Dansko have lost half their value -- and the Riley is typical. I accidentally gave it 4 stars -- 3 would be more accurate. It is stylish, but it is not easy to walk around in. My foot is wallowing in the 38 -- I have a full half inch of sole hanging out behind my heel. I can reel in the fit with the buckle, but the shoe is much too big. I know better than to return it, however, because a full size less would not fix the problem. The pain of clomping around in a too-big shoe outweighs the compliments that I get. It's cute. So what. I go home at the end of the day with aching feet just as if I had not spent this much on a Dansko shoe. BRING BACK MARGRETE! It was stylish and comfortable. PS -- I'd like it in a navy blue.

I have wide feet and short toes. You would think that Dansko would be ideal for my feet but not these shoes. Too bad because they were super cute.
