Customer Reviews Dansko Hayes

These fit narrower than the standard Dansko tennis shoes normally fit. The color is a beautiful shade of light blue, and they appear to be generally well made.

The sizing is pretty spot-on. I usually wear and 8 - 8.5 depending on the brand and the 8.5-9 fits well, even with my wide feet. The back of the shoe is pretty stiff and you'll definitely need to wear socks. The soles on these are hard and loud. You will not be able to sneak up on anybody wearing these.

I wear 6.5 M and bought size 37 (6.5-7) which felt at least a half size too big. I exchanged them for the next size down which fits perfectly. I like the removable insole and the shoe’s stability. They will require a short break in period before I can call them flexible, but they’re getting there. Lots of room in the toe box too. They’re for an upcoming trip so comfort vs. style was my main objective. I do like that they’re not too sneaker-like.

This is a lovely shoe....good support and light weight but it was cut too high for my foot and rubbed on the outside ankle bone right off the bat. I could see that it would not get better with wear, so I returned. Probably a perfect shoe for the right foot.

Had to order a size smaller than what I wear in Dansko Clogs, but shoes fit well! Very comfortable and supportive.

The shoes were delivered quickly. I put them on and they felt good. I have plantar fasciitis, so I really need good arch support. I was planning on returning them because I didn't feel like the support would be enough. This shoe had moderate support, but by the end of the day, my feet didn't hurt so I was very surprised and I will be keeping the shoe. There is more than enough room for your toes. The color was spot on. Thanks!

I have this shoe in black and it fits perfectly. The blue shoe is much wider than the Hayes in black and so I had to send it back.

Although the shoe appears narrow in size, it fits nicely, and is comfortable from the start. The heel of the shoe slips, as other reviews have indicated, but I'm hoping it won't be a nuisance. Overall, I am satisfied with the shoe, and look forward to new Dansko purchases.

I usually wear size 40. It felt too big and too wide. Tried size 39 but I thought might be too small with heavy socks. After wearing constatly on my trip in Europe for 4 weeks I regret I did not stay with smallersize. Otherwise comfortable, light weight shoes, good for walking.

Been wearing Dansko for many years. These had a true "old" Dansko fit which was great. Loved the style. They were comfortable for the most part, but when walking the front of the shoe "broke" or or bent just at the end of the shoelace opening which made the stiff trim around the opening press to noticeably across the top of my foot. I'm returning these but will try another style Dansko sport shoe with different lace up style.

I have a wide foot and planters fasciitis (sp?); Dansko's are wide enough for my feet and offer the right arch support. Dansko rarely lets me down and these shoes do not disappoint me. I love them. I have them in two colors; black and green. Am about to purchase in a third color. I walk to work and these shoes are super comfortable and provide just enough support. They aren't heavy and sometimes its just nice to be able to walk in a shoe that doesn't look like a running shoe. These are it.

This shoe is very comfortable and cute. However, the olive green is much darker in person, a little too drab for my taste so I returned them for the light blue. Otherwise I'm pleased. Additional colors would be fun for summer (pink, lime green) as they are a nicer alternative to traditional tennis shoes when running around town.

I loved these sneakers in every way but one. The arch falls too far back on my feet. I even tried putting my custom insert in and it didn’t work out. I contemplated getting a larger size and trying my own insert, but the toe box is perfect in my size and I worry they would be too big and my foot would slip. I would give 5 stars if the arch worked. I can’t wear Dansko clogs for the America’s reason. They are so cute, but sadly not for me.

Surprised that Dansko fit my narrow feet well, as their clogs are too wide especially in heel. Good amount of room in the toe box for my bunions and arthritic toes, but nice and light and a neat and trim, light look overall. I would like a grippier sole but these are nice and a keeper.

Overall it is a nice looking well made shoe. The color green is actually a lot darker than the picture and I was disappointed because I really liked the style but wanted a sage green and it was closer to forest green.

The Dansko Hayes is an attractive shoe and comfortable right out of the box. However, I was looking for a shoe for fall and early winter so did return them as the suede and mesh uppers seemed better suited for summer weather and would not harmonize with rain country.

Great fit,lightweight, breathable, Trendy looking,good support.did i mention how lightweight they are? Have only worn for 2 working days,and im pretty sold on these

Great shoe. Quality materials and really nice-looking. Just didn't offer enough support for me and seemed narrow, especially in the toe box area.

I originally ordered these in a size that's been my typical size in Dankso, a 41, but for the first time, in this particular style, my toes came to the end of the toe box, with no wiggle room. I returned for the 42. The 42 'fits' well enough, but it's a little large, but as I thought, it's not so large that I cannot wear them. That tells me that this particular design must be cut smaller than other Danskos I have previously ordered (I have at least 5 pairs in different designs). Most of the time, 41s fit almost perfectly in Dansko. I am a 10.5 wide in Munro, and that's been my standard to go by, because that size has never changed. 41/42 in European sizes is a guide more than a standard for me.

This shoe felt comfortable for the short test run around the house. I have a lot of Dansko shoes and I’m usually a 37 or 38 depending on the style. The 37 fit perfectly, and the toe box was roomy. But, they were just too dark and I didn’t like the way they looked. I purchased the black, but it was much darker than the photo. The light color underneath didn’t show through nearly as much as it appears in the photo. Also, the laces were weirdly long. (Not a big deal but just thought I’d mention!) I’m going to try the grey to see if I like that color better.

Dansko does not offer half sizes so these had Togo back

I liked the style of the shoe however they felt too narrow for my feet so I had to return them.

This shoe looks nice, but feels plastic like to me. I also felt like I could roll my ankle in this shoe, not a sturdy profile in my opinion. And the cushion or even arch support is just not there for me. Just can’t justify the expense when the comfort isn’t there.

I ordered these in both a 36 and 37. The 36 was the closest fit but was too wide on my foot - especially my heel. I like the look of these shoes but I need something I can walk may miles in.

These are very cute shoes, and flet very comfortable except that the base did not have enough cushioning for me. I've had Dansko walking shoe before that was this hard on the sole. I ended up feeling like I had a neuroma. These feel the same, so they have to go back.
