Customer Reviews Dansko Patti

I bought these shoes for a 2 week trip to France. I walked an average of 6 miles a day. These shoes were amazing. I tried on 36 pairs of shoes for my trip to Spain. I tried on ONE pair for this trip. I LOVE these shoes. Not the prettiest, so I thought I would only use them for travel. WRONG! I wear them to work whenever I can. They are a little wide maybe but with socks they are prefect. They are cuter without the socks! I walked thru wet grass and mud and they cleaned up perfectly (and kept my feet dry)! I took my Spain shoes to France and wore them once, I wore these Danskos the rest of the trip. I highly recommend these shoes! I walked over 81 miles and my feet never hurt.

I am really thrilled with this shoe!! They were so comfortable right out of the box that I took them on a quick trip the day after receiving them. I wanted a winter-worthy, waterproof shoe with good traction and support and the Patti fits all those requirements. They may not be as trendy as wearing cute shorty boots, but they are perfect for my almost-70 feet that have had lots of problems and they look great with skinny jeans and patterned wool socks! I wore them to Minneapolis and my feet did get cold when I was walking in 20 degree temperatures -- obviously, they are not insulated like a pair of snow boots. But for running errands, shopping, sightseeing in less than perfect weather, they are terrific. I was on my feet all day in them. As for fit, I wear an 8 1/2 (9 in boots) and the 39 is just right. My foot is medium and the width is good, but if your foot is wide, they will probably be too narrow in the ball of the foot. My heel does not slip, my high arches fit without any rubbing, they have terrific arch support and cushioning. Absolutely no complaints!!! This is a great shoe and while expensive, I believe it's worth it for the quality of workmanship and the beautiful fit.

I so wanted this to be the perfect shoe! I love Danskos, and have had many pairs. This looked like it would be the best - the comfort and support of a Dansko with a new style, and less clunky. I love the look of them, but unfortunately, this shoe is not as comfortable for me at my pair of Dansko Professionals or my Dansko Martina clogs. I can wear either of these and my feet are happy all day. I've worn my new pair of Patti's a number of times now, and my feet and legs bother me after standing, or walking, a while. Maybe it's the different, Vibram, sole. I walked 1.5 miles in these the other day to my office, and my feet were not feeling great. I wished I'd worn my sneakers, of Dansko Professionals. My office has concrete floors, and I can wear the Professionals all day and feel fine, but the Patti doesn't feel so good, even when standing on a rubber mat.

As far as the clog style goes, it is a very cute shoe. If you need a wider toe box, look at a different style though. I have narrow feet but wider in the toes. After a few minutes of wearing these, my toes were hurting from rubbing on the sides of the shoe.

These are the most comfortable pair of Danskos ever! I think that they are an upgrade of the "Celeste" model, and the Vibram heel makes all of the difference. My feet easily fatigue, and heel cushioning and arch support are superb with this model. I'm going to order another pair!

Cannot wear regular Dansko’s as they feel too hard on my feet and my ankles feel unstable. These are amazing; they comfortable and supportive!!

This shoe would probably be great for most people. It is cute and very comfortable. Unfortunately I have arthritis in both of my big toes, and the shoe bends in the forefoot exactly at the spot which causes me pain. If you don't have that issue, then these shoes would be great.

Highest Possible Recommendation! Most comfortable yet supportive shoes I've ever owned! They provide a solid, stable platform that gives a sure-footed feel on almost any terrain. And, no matter how many hours I am on my feet, I never have tired feet or legs at the end of the day. I just purchased my third pair - not because they are worn out in any way, but because I want them in multiple colors. I own many quality shoes that are well-built and have excellent support. But these have become the shoes that I wear almost every day of my life. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

These are SO comfortable. I always love Danskos and have been wearing them for years. As far as the comments about fit, to me they fit similarly to the closed heel clogs. So there is room in the heel to where your heel slides out a little when you flex your feet. So cushiony, so comfy and the fact that they're waterproof makes them perfect for this time of year. These are very casual.

I have been searching for a replacement for some Dansko boots that I bought several years ago. The "Vibram Sole" is the key for me. I have severe arthritis in my knees and there are very few shoes I can can wear. I can wear these. I did add an additional insert for more cushioning and for when I am wearing thin socks or tights. With thick sock, I do not need the inserts.

I have somewhat narrow flat feet with a high instep. I adore Dansko clogs, but recently have been forced to wear something more stable after a serious ankle injury. While not clogs, they have a similar appearance/shape, but with a much more secure footing. I think these will begrudgingly take over my love of Dansko clogs for work wear. They do not seem snug on my instep as many of my Dankso clogs have been in the past.

This is my 3rd pair of these over the course of several years. They are great shoes to slip into whether you are going to run errands or work around the house. They look great with jeans and have held up wonderfully. Thanks Dansko for an awesome shoe and that you've kept it around for so many years!

Pros: this has the most cushion under the heel than any other shoe I’ve tried. Cons: I had heel slippage and the shoe squeezed my little toe.

I really loved the feel of this shoe. HOWEVER, DO NOT BUY THESE IF YOU WORK IN A RESTAURANT OR KITCHEN. Even though they are "non slip" as soon as I stepped in water, I I was immediately slipping. I have been a devoted wearer of the professional clog for 15yrs and NEVER ONCE did I have any issues with slipping. I am very disappointed because they felt great on my feet.

Stylish and comfortable. moderate arch support. soft to the touch. long time Dansko customer, some styles are not so comfortable, this one is. well made. a little stiff until broken, but worth walking around the house a bit.

Only caveat is wish the soles were completely black without the gray as I wear them to work constantly. Excellent shoe.

I have been looking for another pair of the "Celeste" style, but noticed it is no longer available. The Patti looked similar, so I purchased the dark brown pair. Based on other reviews, saying the shoe was too large, I sized down from my regular size 38. The 37 was small and did not fit at all. I ended up returning the 37, and purchased the size 38. The 38 fits perfectly and is very comfortable. I wear these in fall and winter with a thick crew sock, so maybe that is why I had to go for my regular size. I love the "celeste" style, and these are very similar. They fit higher up the top of my foot, are a bit stiff, and the heel is slightly higher. They are very well made, and I love that they are water resistant. I am very happy with the upgrade from the celeste.

Loved this shoe; everything I was seeking...except the funky fit. I tried my regular size/European equivalent, but it was too large. Read the Zappo reviews and everyone said it ran large, so I ordered a size down. Shoe arrived today and I can barely get my foot inside of it. Truly bummed. Perfect shoe, but imperfect fit. Dansko...what up? Never had had this issue in the past.

I usually wear size 7 dress shoes, 7.5-8 for running/hiking shoes, and 37 in Dansko clogs. The 37 fit fine, but my heel kept sliding out the back. There was also almost no arch support for me, so the combination of the two flaws prevented me from keeping them. Too bad, because they were a nice alternative to the clog being slip on, but they also look okay with leggings/capris/shorts whereas the clogs I feel only look okay with bootleg/flared pants.

I actually returned these shoes. Patti by Dansko. I have not owned a Dansko clog before and while they were true to fit for my foot, I found the Upper faux suede to be quite stiff and unforgiving. It was really rubbing on my 2 outer toes and would not be comfortable for long wear.

I usually wear a size 8 but ordered a 1/2 size up to 8.5 which was a wise choice but had some slippage in the heal. In my opinion, The shoe will not fit someone with a high instep. There is no cushioning inside and so disappointed they don’t fit properly—loved the style!

I bought size 39. These European sizes do not like my foot. I normally wear a 9, I ordered the 39 according to fit finder. I had to wiggle my foot to get it. I had to return. Not enough room and the 40 is too big. If my foot is going back and forth in the shoe, i will be miserable the entire work day. I really wanted this to work. I'll keep looking.

Probably the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn - and I’ve been wearing shoes since 1948.

Really comfortable shoe. Good arch support. I have plantar fasciitis and this shoe is comfortable and doesn’t make my feet hurt later. I sit most of the day though. It did run a full size larger than what I usually wear so I had to return for next smaller size. And I can still wear a thick warm sock for winter in it even w it a size down. Not sure if they changed their sizing or what because last couple pairs of boots I bought from Dansko were the same one full size too big and I had to size down to next size in all of them. I can’t speak of how well they hold up over time or ice yet.

Love the support. This is my second pair of Danskos. I was very surprised to find out I had to downsize one whole size to get the correct fit. So glad I did the exchange as these slip-ons shoes are so very supportive and comfortable for my arthritic feet. My small tailor bunion didn't mind the medium vs wide width. Easy to slide into and remove. No ankle rolling, just a sure-footed feel when I walk. Worth the money. Thanks Zappos for the quick/easy exchange.
