I really like these boots, they fit a little snug across the instep for my foot, however it is not enough to make them uncomfortable. They don't feel as comfortable as my usual Born boots, but the style is great and they look good with tights, slacks or jeans. The color is great, the rushing on my pair is not as pronounced as the photo however I still like them. The color is a great alternative to black!

This is a good quality boot with excellent toe room but only moderate arch support. The main issue is lack of cushioning in the ball of the foot, where all the pressure lands. Should be fine for casual wear if you don't walk much. Not up to a 1-mile walk to and from the train. This does not have the traditional thick Dansko sole. I generally wear an 8 and felt the sizing was a little on the small side.

Loved these on pinterest...they are comfy and suede is definitely sparkly outside in the sun but not as detectable inside. I have high arch and Danskos are rigid enough to keep my foot in place for comfort.

These are very cute boots! I wish I could keep them. Unfortunately, unlike my other Danskos, these are less a wedge and more of a heel which puts too much pressure on the front of my foot. Back they go and I'll keep looking! On the plus side I ordered them on Saturday and they arrived Monday afternoon! Amazing!

I really like these (and unlike the other reviewer, have no problem with my high instep fitting in; I also usually need wide-width shoes but these are wide enough). HOWEVER be warned that the photos of the Gray Shimmer do not accurately represent how shimmery the boots actually are--shimmery in natural light; outright glittery in artificial. I actually kind of like them but they may be too flashy for me--currently on the fence about whether to keep or exchange for black.

I have had two stress fractures on my left foot and because if this I have to wear hard soled shoes that do not bend. Given my personal history of owning Dansko shoes I thought this was a safe online purchase. UPS just delivered them to me not 30 minutes ago. I could not wait to try them on. I am so sorry that these cute Dansko Boots bend right in half. If you are purchasing these but need a hard soled shoes save your self the time and heartbreak and go with something else.

This shoe is sparkly and a very different shape than the picture. It is not what I wanted, but it was so comfortable and true to size.

These are nice, stylish boots but they are not made for my feet. They run super small and I could barely get my foot in without injuring myself with the rear zipper. Once my foot was in with help from a shoe horn, I could not zip them up at all. I so wanted them to work but I have to wear orthotic inserts, so these would never have worked out unless they were constructed differently. The design is molded into shape for this shoe is not for people who need shoes that stretch.

These are comfortable and look great with pants, I decided to keep them. However, I was a little disappointed with the quality. The leather is quite thin and does not have that luxe feel that a shoe should have. The zipper feels cheap, you need two hands to get them zipped. And the sparkles are lame, I am hoping that they wear off quickly. I am keeping them, but only because I really need shoes right now.

Oh, am I sad to return these....they are perfect in every way, except the SPARKLE. I was hoping these would be a go-to to 'make' me more stylish running around the day, and more comfortable heading out at night. There is no way I would wear these in any kind of sunlight - my friend nicknamed them Edward Cullen...sigh.

These were cuter in the box than on my feet. I'm planning on returning and trying the neubuck style.

I love this shoe- the style and fit are great, and they (like all Dansko) are SO COMFORTABLE. But the outermost layer is extremely soft and both toes scraped away on the first wear (which was walking down a sidewalk and back, and whatever caused the scrapes was so minor that I didn't notice). I'm going to try to fill them in, but it's still a huge disappointment.

Let me preface this by saying that I LOVE Dansko shoes and have had multiple pairs over the years, but it feels like they missed the mark on these. The sole is a hard plastic, not rubber. This makes the shoe very slippery to walk in and it feels and looks cheap in comparison to many of their other shoes. I personally don't care for the glitter, and the grey seems darker than in the photos. Also, even though I always get a size 37, these ones were way too big, and not at all comfortable. They look so cute in the pics, but they're definitely going back.
