Customer Reviews Dansko Poppy

I've been wearing Dansko 38s for more years than I care to remember. In the XP, I had to order a 37. They fit nicely as a 37, but I decided they were too similar to the color I bought last year. The support does seem better in the XPs.

Too big (or maybe too wide?). I wear a 37 in the Professional Narrow, so I tried that in the Poppy = too big. So I sized down to the 36 = still too big, I can hardly keep my foot in it. I am disappointed, I love the idea of the shoe, I just cannot wear it.

love the look. I was looking for more arch support. The arch doesn't seem to line up like the professionals

This shoe is only available in sizes within a range. I wear an 11 so bought a 10.5-11, which was too small, but experience tells me the 11.5-12 will be too big. I have no idea why shoemakers do this.

I frankly admit I bought these shoes for the color. Finding a shoe that isn't black that works with navy clothing has been a bit of a challenge, mostly because I wear custom orthodics. While these shoes are advertised as being orthodic friendly, what that seems to mean is that you can remove the insole and replace it with your orthodic. If you wear orthodics, you know that this doesn't usually work, because shoes these days are constructed to be worn with the insole they come with. I'm still working on finding the right replacement insole, but I'm keeping the shoes. Also, I normally wear a size 38 in Danskos (both clogs and the Paisley shoe), but this shoe I had to size up to 39, as the 38s were too short.
