Customer Reviews Dansko XP 2.0

Shoes appeared worn. The left shoe had wrinkles across top and along right side. Returned them.

Looked like it had been worn. Left shoe had wrinkles across the top and right side, so I returned it.

SO WIDE! I prefer a narrow in Dansko’s when I can find it (rare), but even with thick socks, I just walked right out of these big girls. Also, they are basically black, the blue is so dark. Ain’t nobody got time for this!

The back of the shoe is so low that your foot slips right out.

If you have a wide foot, these may not work. All I felt was the seam on the side of my foot pressing into the bones. Could have finished it much nicer in my opinion. The weight of your sock has a lot to do with the fit of this shoe. Just didn’t work for me.

These hurt my feet so much! I wore Sanitas in a kitchen for over a year and they were fine (if a bit heavier). This pair has a padded band across the top (padded on the inside of the shoe) that kills my feet. I may have somewhat high arches but don’t usually have a problem with shoes. The tops of my feet are swollen. Also, the leather inside rubs the side of my small toe and joint on my big toe. All around unpleasant. Never again!

Heel too high put too much pressure on forefoot, exacerbating metatarsalgia

I’ve worn Dansko clogs for over 20 years. I purchased my first XP 2.0’s two years ago and loved them. I think Dansko must have completely changed the design and manufacturing of this shoe. Sizing changed from wearing a 39 to a 38 (first time ever in 20 years of buying this brand), the material stretches quickly and is not as firm or supportive as traditional Dansko’s. I’ve worn them for a week thinking it would get better but unfortunately it did not. If you are a long time Dansko buyer you’ll be disappointed!

Walked right out them. Will be returning.

I was disappointed that the shoe felt like it ran a little short in length, and that the toe box seemed shallow (my large toe not only was touching the end, but pressed against the top of the shoe. I knew they would not be comfortable for this reason and returned them.

I've worn Dansko Professionals for over 20 years and love them. I wanted to like the XP 2.0, but all four pairs of shoes SQUEAK. This same thing happened with a pair of Dansko Maryjane's that had the same sole. I kept those for several years, they were comfortable, but they never stopped SQUEAKING. Can't go there again. Please improve the soles.

I felt this shoe was way too wide in the heel and not wide enough in the toe box. The arch is placed so that it hits my foot in an uncomfortable way. I purchased a 9.5 wide as I have before with good results in Kloggs.

The leather uppers are just too stiff and after multiple twelve hour shifts, I decided these are not for me. Despite fitting in the suggested size, the uppers still rub on my pinky toes. The inserts in the XP 2.0 really don't do much for me as far as padding the bottoms of my feet. I can't imagine trying to replace the insert because that would just make the fit tighter. I tried to make it work but I've worked on my feet for 17 years and these may be the most uncomfortable shoes I've ever tried so hard to make work. To summarize - the bottoms of my feet would hurt, my pinky toes would hurt. The only thing that didn't hurt was my back.

Ever since I discovered Dansko's, I've almost exclusively buy this brand. I've also gone through 2 original professional clogs. However, these XPs are not comfortable becuase of one area. It's so stiff in the area where covers to top of one's foot. I was hoping they'd soften up by wearing them and it's been a month and still so stiff. Because I'e worn them outside, I cannot return. The good side is that they fit me better in the width, bcz my feet are on the normal to narrow side, so compared to professionals, these run a bit narrower.

The arch of these shoes did not hit my foot in the right spot. The heavy insert made my foot feel like it was coming up out of the shoe and not really in the shoe. The shoes made me feel like I was going to twist my ankle. I love my other Dansko's but not a fan of this new XP 2.0 at all.

After wearing these for many long shifts, I’m really not impressed. They offer more support than very cheap service shoes, but don’t seem worth the price. The hand stapled (or sewn?) stitching alone the sole is really sloppy and the black coating is already wearing on some of the stitching. The black patent is good quality and holds up against scuffs. Overall I’m really displeased that I spent so much money on shoes that seem worth half the price.

I replaced a worn out pair of tooled leather Dansko Professionals with these XP 2.0 shoes. The short story is that I hate the new style. They feel squishy and clumsy and my feet overheat.

The band that hits the top of the foot really rubbed and put a lot of my pressure on my foot. After a 12 hour shift my feet were killing me! Would have large red marks on top of foot and skin around big toe would be white and numb like. Unfortunately, this will be my last trial of Dansko for a work shoe! Also, rolled my ankle several times wearing these.

Beautiful clogs, but the paper in the shoebox was covered with black shoe polish that rubbed off on me as soon as I tried the clogs on. Not worth the effort to keep them. Also, a bit big on me.

The right shoe was a Wide. It was visibly and palpably wider than the left shoe. Someone else had apparently had the same issue (their return slip was still in the box). I tried to reorder but the second pair was exactly the same. I’ve worn Dansko clogs for >20 yrs, and never had this issue before.

I ordered this shoe twice: BOTH times, the left shoe is normal and the right shoe is very clearly a WIDE (it’s visibly wider and fits so loosely I’d walk out it). I’ve worn Danskos nearly every day for over 20 yrs, I know how they should fit, I own at least a dozen pairs. Very disappointed, as I really liked this color/pattern.

Soooo cut but uncomfortable

Wayto big and had on feet

School teacher here, in my feet all day. Have back foot and knee issues and have still been experiencing knee and ITB pain after surgery a year ago. Wore these for one day and what a difference! Lowest pain I’ve had in a long time! I will be investing in more of the XP’s. Would love more boots with the same technology or a little more style for nights out.

Horrible experience with customer service representative. I will be calling tomorrow to speak with a manager. Representative not helpful, argued with me about the color I was ordering, encouraged me to return and not exchange. I will be returning and ordering my shoes from a different vendor. I will also be sharing my experience with others.
