Customer Reviews Dansko Rowan

Minimal arch support.

Classy, stylish shoe but a bit too roomy in the toe for me (width wise). Length was true to size. My feet are so skinny that I should never order anything but a narrow width, and yet I do!? This shoe is well made and comfortable.

These were ok, but not as comfortable as I was hoping. They felt quite wide, especially in the heel, which has been my experience with Dansko in general. (I have thin, narrow-ish feet.) They also looked ... like comfort shoes. Not horrible as comfort shoes go, but not so attractive.

Beautiful shoe - But they just didn't fit my foot well. Seemed too wide and didn't have any arch support although they would have been comfortable if they had fit better.

Such a cute shoe and more sophisticated than many other mary jane shoes. But the fit was off somehow: the toe box was extra roomy, my toes kind of swam in there, but the instep was so narrow that my foot rested on the edge of the instep and was uncomfortable. Usually Danskos are a great fit for me, but not this time. So sad, because I really liked the sleek and versatile style of this shoe.

Returning these. My go-to Dansko size 39 (I usually wear 8.5) was far too large in the Rowan style; the toe box is very wide and I think it will be too wide in the 38 as well. The taupe color is "meh." The same thing happened earlier this year with the Dansko size 39 fisherman style clog--it felt like a size or more too large.

Cute shoes but NO arch support. If they had a better arch they would be wonderful!

These shoes get rave reviews, and they are cute, but I just can't seem to get the right fit. I normally wear an 8.5/9, so I first tried a 39 which was too short. I then ordered a 40 but found it much too loose overall, and the sole was hard with little support. Back they go.

This size was waayyy too big. I then ordered a size down, which was so small, I couldn't even get my foot into it. Both tried on at the same time of day, same hose, etc. I had to double check to make sure I hadn't ordered wrong. But no. Too bad. The style was exactly what i was looking for.

Lovely show but had to return - SO WIDE!!!! Please offer your shoes in a narrow width! I normally do not take a narrow width but all your lovely shoes are SO WIDE!

I loved the style but the toe box was so wide your foot flopped when you walked

Way too wide for me. I will now stay away from the brand. Which is sad. Very attractive, trendy shoe.

Slid around on my foot, edge of foot strap rough causing skin chaffing.

I think these would’ve been great for work but I’m a true 5.5 when comes to these not 5.5-6 as it says. So back they go and frustrated as finding my size gets tougher.

Like another reviewer shared, these are best for chubby feet.

Very pretty and comfortable, but had a horrible, toxic chemical smell (glue?). Returned.

They were so incredibly cute. Fit perfectly! Almost no arch support :-( I had to return them. I started buying Danskos specifically for the arch support, and this had the least of any Dansko i've ever tried. Very disappointed.

Dansko really doesn't have the same european sizes as other brands...e.g. Naot etal I wear a size 36 but dansko the 36 is almost 2 sizes too big. Do not buy if you are a size 5.5. I hope Dansko will see this and know they are missing a whole segment of buyers.

I have noticed a tend with Danskos of less arch support. I have a high arches and use to shop the Dansko brand for my footwear needs. This shoe has a small rise for the arch so would be good for someone who doesn't have high arches. It's a shame because these shoes are so cute. The materials are soft. This shoe also has the style of strap that folds over, meaning no Velcro rubbing against skin. It's a bummer that these shoes didn't work out. If you are looking for a shoe with a high arch skip this one and look at other brands like Naot instead.

Love the style but the front of the shoe was too wide –– and I have somewhat wide feet. These didn't offer enough lateral support.

Own these in the black nubuck size 41 and absolutely love them; they're cute, AND kind to my bunion! I ordered the smooth Distressed Honey leather which has artistically-darkened leather on the toe, but this "distressed" color variation is more pronounced in person than on the web photos and I'm not loving it for my personal style, so they are going back. Will try another color! (if the bright red nubuck were still available, that would be the one!)

Pls sell quality shoes for small or narrow feet!!! Beautiful styles but too wide or long

Such cute shoes! What a shock to try on a pair of Dansko’s that has absolutely no arch support. I have worn this brand for many, many years and was never disappointed. When I stepped into this cute shoe my foot rolled inward. So disappointed!

Absolutely the worst Dansko product I’ve worn!!! Uncomfortable to say the least. Worn around house for 2 hours couldn’t handle it any longer.

There is no arch and I need the the arch support that Fawna Mary Jane shoes has. I cannot walk comfortable my arch hurt with just a few steps.
