These days I don’t know what size shoe I wear. My arch is supper high, my right foot is about a 1/4 size bigger than the left. In Birkenstock I wear a 36 comfortably . Gucci Princetown 37.5 cause of my high arch. The front of my shoe is mostly air. These I purchased in a 37. The left foot is too big and the right foot is entirely too small. And these are supper uncomfortable to walk in because they are wood soles. I feel like a duck flapping its feet while walking.

Size 41 should really not be marked as an 11, it is a 10.5. I got suckered into trying it, hoping it would be a true 11 or would fit a touch large, but no. Be warned, these shoes aren't made for tall / big footed American women ;)

Loved the style and fit but the color was not like the pictures online…I was expecting a bone color; these are definitely light brown/tan.

Beautifully crafted clog however I returned them as I found them too wide even with wool hiking socks. I am size 6.5 and I ordered the 7.

These are beautiful shoes and as others have said, they run a tad narrow. Now that said, they would work if the leather was soft enough to break in. But it is very stiff albeit very high quality no doubt. It's just my feet won't make the break in period so unfortunately the shoes would win out. Gorgeous shoes and true to size. I wear between a 35 and 36, and the 35 is the correct length. Sadly they are going back.

As other reviewers have noted, order a FULL size larger than you would normally wear. Honestly, if you plan to wear them with chunky socks, you could even order a full size and a half larger. I exchanged my 39s for 40s thanks to the wonderful customer service team at Zappos. And while the length runs small, I did not find the width to be too snug (I have average to slightly wide feet). I haven't worn these out of the house yet, so my view of how they wear is limited. That said, the leather is indeed stiff and will likely take some breaking in. With a pair of socks I think they'll be totally fine. Construction appears to be very sturdy, and I plan on enjoying them for awhile to come!

I have hallux limitus (arthritis in the ball of my foot), so for me they are quite comfortable since I don't bend my foot in when I walk in them! They do run a bit small. I wear a 39 in Birkenstocks and Danskos, but the 40 in these fit me just right. A

I really love my Swedish Hasbeens Swedish Husbands. They took about 2.5-3 weeks of continuous wear (with socks) to loosen up the leather and make them a bit more comfortable but now they are great! I got a blister as one gets with new leather shoes, so the socks helped a lot.

I love these clogs and wanted so badly to keep them, but they are just so uncomfortable for me. I have a wider foot and the width of the clog rubs against the sides of my feet in a way that is just unbearable. They're gorgeous though so if you can get through the pain, or perhaps have a differently shaped foot, they might be just right for you!

Size 41 = 10 (not 11). They're okay. All of my toes touched the front, which was strange. Returned.

I have fussy feet. Small bunion, no padding, wide toe box but skinny ankles, and bone spurs on top of each foot. These clogs didn’t have enough room in the vamp to handle the bone spurs and the leather was so stiff and hard that putting my feet into them was painful, let alone trying to walk in them. Cute clogs but not for my finicky feet.

I love these shoes and was so excited to get them, unfortunately they are one size small. You have to go up a a size. I’m so bummed out I can’t wear them.

Thank goodness for Zappos and their amazing customer service! I so wanted these clogs to work out but their sizing is ridiculous. I’m a true size 7. The heel on size 37 felt a little short on the heel so I thought I’d size up to 38. 38 was huge in every single way, I was swimming in those shoes.

Because my feet are al little wider, I anticipated having to break these in a little but as it turns out, the leather was very stiff and needed more than just the normal “breaking” in. With that said, I went to Hasbeens? website and found suggestions on how to soften the leather. After following their suggestions, I was able to get a slightly softer feel but still a little snug. It’s been about a week and it’s slowly fitting better but still a bit snug going in. My suggestion: If you are looking for a comfortable shoe to wear straight out of the box, this may not work. However, because of the quality, I think it will become my favorite go-to piece.

Wanted to love these. Hoping that they would break in I’ve worn them for several weeks but atlas they never did. Now I’m stuck with them and will use them to take the dog for his quick nightly walk to the back yard since they are slip on’s. I love the style of them though.

Based on reviews I ordered a full size up from my normal and I think this was the right for length but I found the fit, overall, to feel strange on my feet. They are cute but I'm returning.

Not the same Swedish Hasbeens from several years ago. They must have changed manufacturers or changed the design. Toe box is square, not nearly as cute. Go back to Zappos. :(

I usually wear a size 38 in other brands, but neither a 38 or 39 fit in these. They run WAY small!

These would have been my 6th pair of Swedish Hasbeens, so I'm very familiar with their sizing. I ordered a 37 (because I have 5 others in 37 that fit perfect) and these felt a full size smaller. My heel hung off the back in a major way. Really sad to send these back. Wish Zappos had them in a 38 but they do not. Super sad face!
