Customer Reviews Dansko Frankie

Love the Frankie boot. So cute and pretty comfortable for my bunions and plantar fasciitis, have the same base/ feel as the clogs but those pushed on the top of my foot in a very painful way... these don’t! But I also got the Barbara boot in black and those are amazing comfortable ! Keeping both because I think these are slightly cuter but the Barbara... she wins for comfort!!

This shoe was comfortable and perfect right out the box. No break in period! I have the brown suede version and I love them! The darkening about the toes and heel counter adds a richness to the shoe and ups the cool factor significantly! I have been looking for a Dansko clog that mirrors the professional in a boot style, for about FOREVER and I was thrilled to see these! I also adore the Maria, but for me, this one is probably the best because there are days when I am on set and on my feet constantly and I really need to be stable and nimble at the same time. After a quick 15 min check wear at my home, I wore these for a 10 hour shoot day and I was prefectly comfortable and happy . I've also gotten loads of compliments on these. I stopped by a coffee shop in a very upscale , horsey area of my town, and I had people stop me on the street to ask about them and to inquire where to buy! I will most likely be getting the black version as well. These are cuter than expected , in a pratical quirky kind of way. I wear them with everything - tights, wide legs and leggings and they all work out fine. ( and I have thin legs , wearing a size 11 shoe - and they don't look ENORMOUS-- that says it all for me! :)

I love the style and height of this pair, but the size felt so small. I baught the Dansko Pro as my regular work shoes... which I took of the inserts to put my orthotic insert and it felt so much better. This pair felt sooooo narrow and small. The pair I received have so many scuff marks nd scratches all around the toe box.... I hate to return it but I have to reorder full size bigger.

These boots hurt unlike Dansko shoes. They hit right above ankle and rub skin raw there is no give. Love Dansko shoes but these boots are a miss. Do yourself a favor and do not order. Hate to say but you will regret.

Love the shoes! For me the style is exactly what I was looking for. The arch support is good but the foot bed in general is hard. After 4 hours on my feet constantly I’m ready to sit down. They were good for the first 2 hours but anything longer on your feet is not comfortable. My ankles were sore where the shoes rubbed for the first day but not after (I wear these with jeans rolled up and ankle socks on). Toes doesn’t rub anywhere, lots of room in the toe box :) In general I would recommend these! Excuse my white socks and legs in the photos! I need black socks for sure. Happy shopping!

I have difficult feet and I wear the dansko clogs as often as possible. However, I don't love how they look with slim fitting pants or skinny jeans. So I ordered the dansko Maria shoes to wear at those times. I like the Maria but don't find it to be a great shoe if I am walking a lot. So I ordered the Frankie, thinking it might bring the best of these two Dansko shoes together. It has the footbed of my clogs, so it is comfortable and supportive, but I think it looks better than the clogs with my skinny jeans. One does rub a tiny bit on a spot on my ankle, but that has not bothered me that much, and it seems to be lessening with time. Overall I am very happy with these and I have been wearing them a lot!

I really like these! They offer the comfort of walking in a clog but the look of a bootie plus a little height without the uncomfortable angle of walking in a heel or wedge. I got them in black and they look great with black pants and black skinny jeans. I wear a size 7 in most footwear, occasionally a 7.5 in a boot and athletic shoes and the 37 is a good fit. The width is OK for me as my feet are on the somewhat narrow side of medium width but I wish they were just a tad wider. I wore them all day today with a lot of running around, climbing stairs, etc. and was comfortable.

These shoes have just arrived in the mail so my excited review is based upon just trying them on in the house. But it is a very excited review! I feel like my old beloved Danskos are finally back after so many years of being gone - the old rocker sole, the old unfussy style (though this time with a cute ankle bootie twist). So far, I am very happy with these shoes.

I could sleep in these booties. I feel these have amazing arch support, better than regular profissionais but not as cushy as the XP2.0. I purchased 2 colors thinking I would only keep one but changed my mind. They are both staying with me. LOVE these. Buy them you will not be disappointed.

The right boot you sent me has been scratched and polished over. This is my first purchase from Zappos and I was very disappointed that a damaged product was sent to me.

So disappointed! I can always rely on Dansko to be perfect for me. Looking forward to a comfy clog like boot for my upcoming vacation. Love the style but they rubbed my (bony) ankles and hit all the wrong places on the tops of my feet! Back they're going and I'll continue my quest!

I love these booties! The arch support is excellent. Although the soles are heavy, they broke in quickly and have become so comfortable, I don't even realize I have them on.

This item runs very small

Booties are perfect for me. In Dansko I range from 39 to 40 lately 40. In these I needed a 39. I have a wider flat foot with a bunion and width was great. Not able to use orthotics fortunately arch support hit perfectly. I had no issues with the stiffness of the tongue. Super comfortable right away and easy to walk in. Love them.

I really like boot style upper on the Professional style sole. The only complaint I have with the Professional style clogs is that they are often too tight across the instep and cause discomfort from pressing on the top of my foot. The boot style has the same rocker bottom sole as the clogs and are so comfortable! Now Dansko - how about some more sandals on the Professional style sole? My old favorite pair bit the dust years ago!

Regardless what I wear in other shoes, Dansko 41 fit. I like how they have plenty of toe wiggle room and aren't tight on the ankle. It was a bit awkward going up and down stairs but I think they'll break in.

These fit just like my professionals do, but I love the boot style for a slightly dressier look. Super comfy and wore these all day right out of the box.

Ok so.....I’m on my feet 12 hours a day in my cafe. I replace my shoes at least twice a year because I destroy them. My sister who’s a nurse told me to try Dansko. I finally found this pair that can look a bit more stylish than the pros nurses wear(sorry). They remind me a little of my blundstones. I haven’t worn them to work yet, but they feel super comfy and supportive right out of the box. I’m a 7 in all shoes and boots and the 37 fits perfect :).

I've been wearing Dansko professional clogs, as well as sandals and other types of clogs from Dansko, for many years, and I ALWAYS wear a size 40. These boots, however, I had to return and get a size 39. So it seems they run about a size larger than all the other Danskos I've owned. Thanks to Zappos, the exchange was quick and easy - and now that I have the correct size I love these boots. They are cute and comfortable. My only reservation is that the sole seems a little more flexible than my other clogs - but maybe that's my imagination. That's the only reason I didn't give 5 stars for comfort.

LOVE LOVE LOVE these! I've been waiting for years for Dansko to bring back the booted clog-- and here it is! I love these shoes. I've worn them constantly since they've arrived. I'm considering bring them to a cobbler to have one of them stretched to accommodate a bunion I have on the outside of my foot (below my pinkie toe), as there is some pressure on that spot. But even so, I love these so much. HIGHLY recommend.

I had received these the day before but it was pouring rain so I went with my instincts on Danskos and left the house wearing these. They were perfect! Comfortable and roomy for my wide feet and protected me from the rain with a higher heal and great leather. I couldn't be happier.

I was excited about these booties right as I opened the box! The color and style are so nice! Then I tried them on and the arch support was awesome, they are so comfortable! Just made me so happy I treated myself to these! I am a 7 to a 7 1/2. These will fit good with a light to midweight sock.

Did not like the color of these, the warn toes looks goofy. Returning. Too bad, I've been hunting for a clog ankle boot like their older styles.

I love the look of these booties and really wanted to keep them but sadly, I had to return them. They felt really stiff and hurt my feet after just ten minutes of trying them on around the house. Danskos are sometimes not the softest shoes but these are downright hard inside. The arch support felt like a big lump inside the shoe. Adding an insert would have required sizing up and I think then they might look too big. It's a shame because they are really cool looking.

I love these shoes. Comfortable and secure feeling, look great with jeans.
