This is a well-made shoe suited for a professional environment. It also made my size 11 foot look small, which is a nice change from most Danskos! Ultimately, this shoe was just a bit too big and kept slipping off my heels. I always have this issue with shoes that don't have laces. I also felt they didn't have as much arch support as I wanted. So I returned them, but it was a tough decision! I tried to make them work by adding heel pads but they were still a bit too big.

I wear a size 12 1/2 and the European 43 fit great! Wonderful arch support. A little stiff in the heel at first...needed some breaking in. I expect these will be my go to work shoes for the winter.

I thought these would look sleek in their simplicity, but when I put them on they seemed dowdy. Returning for something with more pizazz.

I am a devoted Ecco wearer but Ecco had a very limited selection in brown so I searched out other brands. I wear professional shoes with dress clothes and work at a job where I stand and walk all day. The sizing on these shoes is odd - I typically wear size 8 so I ordered the 7.5-8 which felt a bit too big but the 6.5-7 was too small. I kept the 7.5-8 but the heel slips a bit, which I've read is common for Dansko shoes. The foot/leg support is excellent, wore all day with no foot/leg fatigue, which I get with cheaper shoes.

I really like this styling on these. Could use more arch support, but other than that, I think a comforable shoe. One issue was that from mid-foot and back, they are very wide. I needed to return because even though the were just right in length, even with a thick sock my heel slipped out with every step.

My feet slip some when walking. I believe this is due to what sock you wear with them. Wear them right out of the box and I like that.

These shoes are of beautiful quality. The Dansko soles wear well, too. Generally I love Dansko because they are very comfortable, appropriate for office casual, and they last a long time. I am returning this pair because they run large. Oddly, these shoes seem to have the exact same soles as the Dansko Franny, but Franny in size 41 is slightly smaller than typical for Dansko, and Farah is a full size larger. Too long for my feet. The style is quite plain. If the style had a little more zing I might have re-ordered in a size 40 to see if those would fit.

Super duper comfortable for my high arches and footbed was really well cushioned. Just couldn't get past the frumpiness of the style...I'm 33 and I'm just not there yet for this style of shoe.

Very comfortable shoe. I got this shoe and Liliana from Dansko. I preferred the style of the Liliana. Similar feel but Liliana was more stylish. This shoe had a more square-like toe, giving an almost Croc-like style.

Size down. I wear a 39 and took a 38 in these, and even the idea of a 38 is crazy small for me. I bought them for work. I'm a clogs wearer and wanted something a bit daintier but still comfortable. They come close, but still aren't comfortable enough. The leather is soft, they look fine with pants or skinny jeans, but they're only meh on comfort.

The size was supposed to fit US 6.5-7. I wear a 7.5 usually. This is the second pair I ordered and I had to return both due to being too large.

Classic Dansko style & fit. These are what I would call "a sturdy shoe." But they are a little plainer than I was looking for. I would have appreciated a little padding at the heel. The edge there is plain and I think I would have gotten a blister pretty quickly. Sending back because Zappos makes it so easy!

I really thought these were going to be ultra comfortable but alas no. They were ok width wise but my toes touched the end of the shoe. Also, it gaped when I walked.

I typically wear a 4.5 or 5, so I got the smallest available size, 35. They looked really beautiful and well made, but they were way too big for me. So sorry to have to return them!

Dansko has been my "go to" shoes for years and I currently have 9 pairs in my closet, all size 38 BUT this pair is so loose on my heel that I can not walk in them because they slip off my foor. I am going to try a smaller size.

I’ve purchased many Dansko shoes from Zappos and locally. I always wear the same size, 38. 38 is marked 7.5-8 and I normally wear a 7.5. This time I got the 38 and it’s more than half a size too big. I don’t think it’s the style because I always get some style of loafer. Zappos is great about exchanges but I don’t think the shoes are a full size too big. The Shoes looks great and are better quality than the pair I’ll end up keeping, however not fitting is definitely a deal breaker.

Styling is very nice, good leather and nice design. However, I had to return them because at about mid-foot and back, they are very wide.

I have a narrow foot and was hoping these might fit. They did not and had to return. These are not for narrow feet, unfortunately. Why doesn't Zappos have more for narrows??

I was hoping these shoes would be the answer to nice shoes to wear to office job with dress pants. These shoes were already huge inside, then, there is an elastic gore on each side of the top of the foot. I always wear a 39 in ECCO's, but my feet were swimming in these.
