Love these shoes! Easy to slip on and go. I got the navy -- great color! They are casual and very comfortable.

Loved the shoe but my regular size was too large. They flopped up and down on my heels. Returning them unfortunately. They were too big even with thick socks.

I wear a 40 size shoe in Dansko sneakers, however, in these slip ons, the 39 fits well. One star off overall due to quality. This is my 3rd pair and all, within a matter of weeks have scrapes and cuts in the nubuck on the top of the toe area. Very annoying for this priced shoe. I only come back to these because I can't find anything that is as comfortable. Please, Dansko, make these in a smooth leather instead of the nubuck. I will keep looking for something other than these for future.

Length and toe box fit great but the heel was too wide and slipped up and down when I walked. The style, color, and material were great.

These run huge and are hard as rocks! I started with a 38, returned them and ordered 37 (with Paypal, it did not permit an exchange, I had to return and buy smaller size, and look through my discarded Emails to find the 40% discount code I used for the first pair and hope it would still work). The smaller 37 is still a bit large, but are OK now after putting some different, thicker & softer insoles.

If you have a wide toe box with comparably narrow heel, this shoe will fit true to the toes but be loose in the heel. I'm not sure if ordering a half size smaller will alleviate this issue or make the toe box uncomfortably tight. It's too bad, because otherwise this is a super comfortable shoe.

I have Achilles tendinitis and high arches so It’s difficult to find shoes that don’t cause discomfort. These are quite comfortable and I would recommend trying them if you have any foot or ankle problems.

I’m usually an 8 or 8.5. I felt like the 38s were a touch too small, while I slipped out of the heel in the 39s. I suppose it would also depend on what socks you wear, if any. It’s a comfortable shoe (lighter weight and “squishier” than the standard Dansko clogs) but for the price I’d like a better fit.

More elegant than you would think from the photos -- kind of tidy looking. Definitely a bit prettier than a Merrell of the same style, for example. Not much arch support. Slightly short -- try a half size larger than you usually wear as well as your regular size. Not as much of a rocker sole as I had hoped -- my toes still had to bend, so doesn't work for my hallux rigidus.

I ordered a size smaller because I read the other reviews that stated these shoes ran big and that is definitely true. I felt the style was attractive and the support wonderful. However I sent them back because the toe area was hard and my toe bumped up against it and hurt.

Great shoe, but very big in the heel. Plenty of room in the toe box. Definitely size down. Great arch support.

I have at least 4 pairs of Dansko shoes, size 37 has always fit perfectly, but the heel in these shoes is too big. My heel slips out, and it would cause a blister if I wore them for any length of time.

I bought this shoe because the sneaker I loved The Paisley was out of stock. It is far too large in my normal size. My feet hurt all the time. I sadly cannot return these as I have worn them way. Too much outside hoping it would get better with time but they have not. Greatly disappointed and costly mistake/

The size was probably accurate, but I must be a size in between 38 and 39 in this shoe. One would be too small and the other is too big!

My normal size is a 7.5 but decided to up it to an 8 as a result of the reviews. if I were to order a replacement I would move to an 8.5 so I could wear heavier socks this winter season. Overall a comfortable shoe but I will returning due to the extra "pad" at the heal. This pad provides great heal cushion but my experience with this these are that I develop a blister when it is sewn or glued into place. if this shoe had a "one" piece insole...it would have been a keeper.

I really love these shoes because they are perfect everyday shoes for me. I am not someone hard on shoes. I wear these mostly in the house and sometimes running errands to the stores. Within a few months the back of the heel on the inside was worn out. Very cheap lining material was used in the expensive shoes. Shame on Dansko!

I have loved these shoes for winter walking about and (because of their firm sole) for bike commuting all year long: Two pairs are in my closet right now, and I bought these to replace the older pair, whose uppers now look tired. Something must be going on with Dansko's quality control: three pairs of shoes all in the same size, and not only are these too tight, but all three feel different: the newer pair is much bigger than the oldest pair, and this newest pair is smallest of all. They're going back, and I don't think I'll try to exchange for another size.

I was so excited to get these shoes. It took three tries to get the right size, so thank you Zappos for working with me to exchange these shoes twice. They are marketed as walking shoes with removable footbeds, which is what I need for my long winter walks and to accommodate my custom orthotics for arthritis and plantar fasciitis in my left foot. I took many walks in these shoes over about a month with increasingly worsening pain in my left foot. I ignored the pain and just kept walking until one night I couldn't take it anymore. An x-ray and an MRI showed that I had new bone erosions in the exterior bone down the side of my left foot. New, because the imaging was compared to imaging from a couple of years ago and the onset of pain was acute. I haven't worn these Danskos since getting my diagnosis and having to wear an AirCast boot for 3 weeks. I cannot recommend them as walking shoes or for any other purpose, really. I'd love to get my money back for them because they will just sit in my closet and collect dust or I will donate them to a thrift shop. I can't risk wearing them and causing further damage to my foot.

More a 11.5 size than a 12. Too tight a fit for a size 12. Liked the look but will be returning. Too expensive not to fit perfectly.

I wanted to love these shoes. They are really cute and not as high as regular Dansko clogs so you don't have to worry about turning your ankle while wearing them. I am a size 8.5. In other Dansko shoes that I have I take a 39 and they fit fine. These did not. For one thing the arch support in the footbed was too far back and hurt my foot. For another there is a raised pad where the heel of your foot sits in the back of the shoe and for me this caused a lot of pain. I tried wearing them off and on for a couple of days but gave up. If you have your own orthotics they may work fine for you but for me I had to return them. Back to Mary Janes. Drat!

Overall a very nice looking shoe but seemed too loose in heel area. Thinking that while many Danskos provide great support and have been my "go-to" shoe for comfort and support, that this style is just not for me.

These are the most uncomfortable shoes I've tried in a long time. They are hard, very stiff, absolutely inflexible. They make no sense. They are difficult to get on and off because of the rigidity of the small opening. It takes two hands plus twisting and turning the foot to get them on. I got a 38 on advice of other customers to size down. Actual dimensions of the shoe match that advice. I have ordinary feet with no distinct problems or characteristics and am easy to fit, have found design quality of Dansko to be on the decline in design, material, comfort with every one of their shoes I have tried in the past year or two. I am returning these and will not be ordering Dansko's again.
