Customer Reviews Dansko Marta

Pretty comfortable on first day. Wish the leather was softer but perhaps wear will modify that. Good shoe.

I love Dansko shoes, but these fit a bit differently than most of my mary jane styles. They are a bit more snug and cause blisters. Usually I can wear my Danskos right out out of the box. I do have wide feet, but I wear Danskos exclusively and haven't had a problem before. I like the way the look so it is worth having blisters.

These are great shoes and I am glad I bought them! I got them in red, and they sass up basic denim and add a couple of extra inches to my height. Even though they are made by Dansko (synonymous for comfort), for me they require a bit of break-in time with bandaids. I have high arches, and should know by now that mary-janes are usually a gamble on the top part of my foot. Still, the lacey cut-outs allow for a bit more flex, and when the leather softens, I will be good to go.

So super cute, but not when I can’t function because my feet hurt so badly after only 3 hours at work as a hairdresser. Bummer.

This shoes are the cutest thing! It's was my first pair of Dansko, so I wasn't sure about the fit. Pretty true to size, but after wearing them for a while, I would get the worst blisters. It took me about a 1 1/2 month to finally break them in. After that they have been great. I would get them again, and get the blister bandaids.

Love the look of these shoes BUT as with most Danskos I expected comfort right away. Not the case with these. I've had them for over 6 months and they are just now getting comfy. They also seems to get 'banged' up pretty easily. I don't regret the purchase but be warned that they need some time to bond with you.

This is the first pair of Dansko's that haven't been wide enough for my feet.

I wanted these to fit- and they probably would work for most people! Cute style. I'd been looking for a replacement for my Dansko Sam size 39s (dog chewed one :( ) for months, and these look similar...but they feel quite different. My foot is very wide at the ball joint, and these run narrower than the Sam- that combined with the stiffer leather means they just feel too tight, width-wise. They seem to run slightly narrower than all the other Danskos I have tried, actually. Another thing to note about these is that they are less stable-feeling than most Danskos. They have a smaller/narrower heel platform than the Dansko Sam, and the foot bed is also not as comfortable or cushy. Again, very cute shoe, though. I marked them as true to width bc they are an average normal-foot width.

The leather toe box is pretty tight, there's not much room for the top of the arch but plenty of room for the toes. Leather is tightly pressing onto top of arch cutting into foot unlike previous model of this lovely sandal.

These are very cute. However, they are exceptionally long and narrow for Danskos. I own about a dozen pair of Danskos in similar styles and this is the first pair I recall that fit like this. I am sad that I could not keep them.

Not meant for wide feet... most have narrowed feet. Love the style but had to return

I normally wear flats with insoles from the doctor but these were suggested to help with my tight calves. I have narrower feet and most other Danskos I tried on were too wide, so I thought these would be a good style to try. I've heard you're supposed to break them in, so I wore them on the carpet several times walking and standing for 30 - 40 minute intervals. However, each time I wore them my arches ached more and more. It also seemed like they made the walking motion a littler stiffer and less natural. I'm thinking this brand might just not be for me.

P.S. on the absence of arch support. They are just like the Spring Step "Lizzie" which Zappos also carries. Darling shoes I loved, but gave away because they were obviously bad for my skeletal system.

These shoes run large. I am a 5.5. I ordered the smallest size. The shoes were way too big.
