They are super comfortable, but decided that they would be a great black shoe for more dressy moments. I have "fussy" feet so finding shoes that I can wear all day typically brings me to Zappos and Dansko. These are super good looking too and minimize my size 10 foot.

absolutely the most comfortable sandals, super soft suede outer and butter soft leather lining , cloud like leather foot bed, plenty room to wiggle my toe and love the sliver buckle closure. Excellent- oh my blue suede shoes!!!

I usually wear a size 11.5 or 12. However, this combo sized shoe felt really short my toes were hanging over the end. They were comfortable but unattractive on my foot due to the over spillage. Shoes are as pictured and very attractive otherwise.

I really wanted to like these shoes -- very stylish. For me, they felt sloppy and my foot moved around in them. I do have a very slender ankle so that probably is the reason as I couldn't get them tight enough. The footbed was the right size.

I usually wear a 38 in Danskos, and a 37 in other European brands. These felt a bit larger and I may have been able to go down a size, but I was able to adjust the straps so that they worked. I bought these for vacation and wore them for evenings out, where we walked for dinner. They are very cute (more so than the pictures) and were fairly comfortable. I wouldn't wear them all day for walking, but they were great for an evening of walking around and dinner.

I've had my eye on this style for a while now, and it looks like it is being discontinued on Dansk's site so I went ahead and made the purchase before they are no longer available anywhere. Dansko shoes have a very comfortable footbed and good arch support for my very high arches. The length and width on this shoe is terrific and is wide enough for my very wide foot. Where I was a little bit concerned was the front toe band which others said did not accommodate a high instep, which I also have. It was a bit snug and wore them around the house inside for a few hours to determine if it would stretch out a bit. After a bit of shoe stretch spray it seems to have stretched a bit to be comfortable for me. The heel height is perfect for me and I really like to block heel rather than the normal Dansko wedge. Overall, I am really happy with the look of the Minka but think it could be a tiny bit more accommodating to higher insteps like mine. I ran into the same problem with the maryjane clog (called the Sam style I think) and ended up returning those to the place of purchase a few years back.

Love the look, but this style Dansko didn’t work for me. My heel slipped around and I felt unstable. I’m a size 42 low volume foot with a narrow heel. This style just didn’t give me enough gripping power. So sad, because I love the look and have so so so many pairs of Danskos.

I love this shoe! It seems to run about a half size too small, but with an open toe, it’s not too bad (I ordered the 10.5-11 and usually wear anywhere between a 10 and 11). The style is so cute, and I have received a ton of compliments on it. Super comfy too.

I just loved the style of this sandal and wanted it very Badly, but my foot slipped around in it. If the leather around the toes was adjustable it might have worked. But a smaller size would just be too short.

I wanted to LOVE these shoes. When I first slid my feet into them, the leather across my foot felt like a hug: PERFECT fit. But when I buckled the strap and walked around, my feet kept sliding backwards with every step. I closed the buckle at the smallest hole, and it still slid. I guess the high ankle strap isn't enough to keep them on properly. A real pity.

The ankle strap did not keep my foot in the shoe. I tended to walk out of the back. Super cute though, just not my fit.

I LOVE DANSKO, but I can only wear Dansko adjustable shoes with buckles at the toe of the shoe.I thought these might work with the heel strap. NO- My feet SWAM in the width of these shoes and I could not walk in them, although the length was spot on. Also these were clunky and hard, and clunked loudly with each step. And, unfortunately in the mirror, they did not look as cute as the photo. sad face. I was excited about these!

This shoe is adorable and stylish, especially in the blue. However, the style is best for someone with longer and thinner calves since it comes up higher on the ankle. How I wish it were not so!

These shoes are so cute. However, they are not overly comfortable. The arch support hits in the wrong place. I had a pair of Demetra that seemed very comfortable, but was afraid to keep because of the heels. I thought the smaller heel would be more practical. I wear a 38 in a closed toe shoe, but got these in a 37 and they fit good as far as the length and width. I do not think I am keeping them.

Loved the style but my feet did not feel the happy relief I usually feel with Dansko shoes. They are being returned.

Flattering height and comfortable for moderate walking. Nice modern look. I would buy again.

Love these shoes. I wear them with jeans and to the office with dress pants. The look like heals but feel like flats.

I have worn Dansko shoes for years and find that these Dansko Minka provide support and comfort to stand most of the day in a classroom. My college students thought they were cute and wanted to know where I bought them! For me Dansko provides comfort, while not sacrificing style.

My feet hurt all summer in hot Phoenix, because of hard tile floors and concrete. During the winter, my dansko clogs keep my feet very happy, but it is too hot for clogs here in summer.
I ordered these dansko sandals, and I love them.
I love the blue.
I love the strap.
Everyone is complementing my shoes.
They look cute, sexy, and feel good.

I love my clogs (size 39) and was hoping to find that same support with an upgraded look in these summer sandals. Standing in these shoes, I loved the look of them - they looked great with jeans and dresses (I got mine in the Camel color, which is a bit more brown than caramel), but once I was walking, the front of my foot (which is considerably thin) was sliding around with way too much room, despite having the ankle strap being on the tightest size. I may decide to try these again in a 38, but I'm worried that they will be too short, not more snug. Wanted to love these, but they're just not built for my foot type.

I have MANY pairs of Dansko! Love them! I'm somewhere between a 36 and 37. Turns out in these, I'm a 37. I ordered the 36, and the arch support just didn't fit my foot correctly. My left foot, which has had 7 surgeries, gets super swollen after a day on the feet.... so there's no way the 36 would have been comfy all day. I'll be exchanging. They ARE super cute though! Will look cute with capris, skirts or pants!

I loved these but unfortunately they were too wide. My feet slid around in them and if I go another size smaller, the footbed would be too small. Super cute though they are going back.

Shoe was so narrow I couldn’t even get my foot to slide and try it on. I have several Dansko shoes and these were narrower than any other pair I have. Style is super cute but def not for anyone with a normal/wide foot.
