I usually wear a 39, but my foot was just swimming in these! They are very cute, but don't work with my bunions--the straps don't land in comfortable places.

I was really disappointed that this was not a buckle but velcro. It lands on your ankle and it's an awkward spot for velcro. Easy to come undone.

This sandal is pretty cute, good heel height, like the velcro closure but it was just too narrow for my wide feet. I was hoping against hope it would work but had to send it back.

The surface of the sole was hard, and hurt the ball of my foot as I walked.

I've been looking for some basic black sandals that can be dressed up or down. These were pretty cute but the leather felt stiff to me and rubbed at my ankle bone. They could work for others, just not on my foot.

I have been looking at these sandals for two years and finally hit send to order them. They were beautiful when they arrived........seemed to have just the right heel height, arch support placement and cushioning...........and then the issue with the length.......I ordered my usual 39 for 8-8.5 in sandals............they were much too long and looked strange. Otherwise the fit was great. I considered ordering the next size down, yet when I have done this in the past, I have found the arch support to be in the wrong place which is a particular problem when you have high arches. So, sadly, these will go back............too bad.......

I wanted to like these, especially as they have velcro under the fake buckle, making it a lot easier to slip on and off. The upper was very very stiff and uncomfortable. I usually am a 8.5W or a 9 and these were very small on me, even in a 9.

Bought two colors and ended up returning them both. Really wanted both to work but the style is just not as cute on as it appears in the photos. Kind of an odd velcro-closure as well....looks like a buckle but is velcro underneath, and is a little difficult to line-up so it's not an obvious faux-buckle. Just too expensive to warrant keeping them when I didn't love them.

Wanted to love these but ended up sending back. This is one of those shoes that look so cute in the photos but on my feet, they were clunky and looked.....orthopedic. So disappointed.

Very nice looking sandal, unfortunately the back rubs my ankle and is not very comfortable for me.

This is darling on. Unfortunately the strap rides right on the ankle bone! With this color I could even dress pretty fancy, but loving to dance and move, the ankle strap makes it a no go for me.

I really wanted to love these. I love Dansko and they usually fit me well. Even if I let the leather stretch my foot was uncomfortable in the shoe. And the leather is a bit stiff. I don't know if it would soften up enough with use. The colors are nice. I tried my usual size - way too long. Then I sized down - too tight in the width. Sent them back.

Would be nice if the top straps didn't gap - they are way too long and don't hold the shoe on my foot. Have to return these.

The ankle strap is not comfortable and it fits very wide on a more narrow foot.

Too narrow compared to Dansko clog. Leather is not soft at all. Velcro under the buckle is wimpy. Not a very substantial shoe.

Cute sandal but ill-fitting for my foot. The strap was too high on my ankle and looked and felt awkward. I wear a size 37 but this shoe was too big and the footbed was not as comfortable as other sandals that I wear. Back to Zappos who are the BEST.

This sandal looks good on my feet, but the strap on the side rubs me just above my ankle bone so I will be returning them.

I wanted to love these shoes. The look is great, and the footbed is super comfy. But the straps are minimally adjustable, and they were way too loose all over. I'm a 9.5 and tried both 40 and 39. My perfect length would have been 39.5, but both sizes had the same saggy fit. I've been told my feet are not narrow but rather low volume. Not enough volume for these shoes, sadly.

These are so cute and I had high hopes. However, the back comes up an inch higher onto my Achilles than is comfortable (yet too low to be a true gladiator style), and that means that the strap closes *on* my ankle bones, rather than below or above where it is comfortable. It's also more narrow than all my other Danskos, so very uncomfortable/awkward. Back they go!

These are really cute and the perfect heel but one of the straps hits my little toe wrong. They are true to size and the leather is nice.

Nice sandal, but runs quite wide (as all Dansko shoes seem to do)

I really wanted to like this shoe. I love the style of it and it would go so well with shorts for the summer. Unfortunately, my feet had a few problems with it. The arch support was not enough for me, the back of the heel by the buckle rubbed my ankle and I could tell I would get a blister there, and the buckle/fastener hit right at my ankle bone and rubbed it as well. Please, Dansko, try to tweak this one because it's so cute!
