Customer Reviews Dansko Raina

Based on reviews, I ordered my usually 41's but also the 40s as so many said they ran large. Not so for me. The 41s fit with a little slip in the heel but when I wore them around the house for an hour or so, my feet began to throb. Took them off and boxed 'em. Tried again a few days later as I really wanted them to work, they are cute and what I was looking for. Unfortunately, the toe box is just not high or wide enough so back they went. Disappointed but glad I had the chance to wear them at home to find out they would not have worked.

I wanted to love these shoes! The fit was good, quality as well, just as one would expect of a Dansko product. This shoe was *way* too frumpy out of the box, though. Perhaps it's because my size (9.5) is larger than the one pictured? The pictures are accurate, but the shoe was not at all elegant on my foot.

Loved the shoes but sending them back because they were not wide enough.

These felt very comfortable as far as arch support and cushioning. They are also a very sharp looking shoe. However, my regular size was way too loose in the heel, so much so that the shoe felt like it would fall off. The smaller size fit but was too snug in the toe.

Stylish and comfortable. Love Danskos. Do not agree that they look “puritanical”. They are simplistic and not trendy.

After reading the reviews I purchased a size down and I’m glad I did. Even with the smaller size this boot fits more like a traditional Dansko clog—loose in the heels. It feels great right out of the box and I wore them all day the first day, no breaking in! I really like them for comfort. The heel adds enough height without any discomfort. If you’re looking for a basic, comfortable boot to wear with slacks and dresses this will work. I give it five stars for comfort!!

I loved this shoe and tried it on many times, different days, with different socks. It is the best fit with my heavy hiking socks (not the look I was going for) but even then the heel was very loose. I slipped forward with every step. I am very sad to be returning this because it was exactly what I was looking for, just cant get the fit I need.

I loved these boots and they were exactly what I wanted. Unfortunately, they felt too big. I wear 36 in Dansko, nearly always, but lately, some of their styles run big. I could pull my foot out of these without unzipping, so they had to go back (and unfortunately do not come any smaller).

really liked this shoe...but couldn't keep two pairs?.

I have another pair of Dansko booties similar to this that are a 38 but are a bit too large. I ordered a 37 and 38 of Raina and went with the 37. I normally wear a 7 1/2 and would be a perfect 37 1/2. I love Danko's newer soft foot bed. I have a bunion and a repaired achilles tendon so shoes are an issue for me. These are comfortable right out of the box. Perfect for work to dress up or with jeans. Thanks Zappos for great customer service.

I love this shoe and really wanted it to fit it was exactly what I was looking for however the way my foot was placed in it was not comfortable because the arch support did not hit under the arch. Foot sliding forward too much even with the right size. It was also very loose and I have a wide foot so I'm not sure what that was about period for the cost it didn't make sense to take the risk that it would work out in the long run.

These were possibly the most comfortable shoe I've ever put on. However, I ordered a half size too big and I wasn't crazy about the style when received so returning to try a different Dansko bootie style.

Came already scuffed slightly as if they had been worn before. Also, they just felt clunky and (excuse the expression) "grandma." I was looking for a sleek looking bootie. Hard to find! Will be returning these.

Size & fit was fine. Beautiful color. Unfortunately the shoe leather seemed thinner than other Dansko shoes I have (6 pair) and I did not think they would wear well long term.

European sizes can be challenging for boots - I'm an 8 and the 38 was too big and roomy, and the 37 far too small. Due to the cut of these boots, basically only no-show socks will do, which meant that I was slipping and sliding around in the 38s, my usual size. I really wanted to love these! It also felt like they are not nearly as supportive as more traditional styles of danskos.

Great looking shoe and well made. Unfortunately, these hit my ankle wrong and were too narrow for me.

These have the great foot bed you expect with Danskos but they arrived scuffed on the sides which was a red flag that this would be an ongoing problem. I may have been able to overlook that but as other reviewers pointed out, the opening is too large. My heel popped out of the shoe with every step. I ended up returning them.

I wanted to love these boots. I have two pair of Dansko sandals that I love - they are stylish AND they have good arch support - they are the most comfortable shoes I own. I can stand in them all day. So I really wanted a stylish pair of boots for fall and winter. These (and all other Dansko shoes or boots I tried) are HUGE. I first bought the same size as my sandals (and my running shoes) and they were a good 3/4 inch too long. So I ordered a size smaller. The smaller size mostly fit in the length, but the heel is way too wide and my heel kept slipping - even when I wore exercise socks. So all of them are going back.

Great looking boots with great arch support, however, the toe area were a little too snug for my toes.

I love loved these shoes, for the 4 months they lasted. I expect a longer wear from a nearly $200 pair of shoes. They are super cute and went with every outfit, I could walk around the city in them in comfort. But four months later and they are stretched out and the tread is GONE. Really disappointing because I'd love to make these my forever shoes but they just don't last.

Was very hopeful with these boots - I followed other reviewers suggestions and ordered a size down (38 instead of my usual Dansko size of 39) and while the length was good, the boots were soooooo tight! I could barely get them on, and I just knew that my feet would be killing me if I tried to wear them :(

Overall these looked ok, but they are very plain and didn't look good with dresses. Very stiff leather too. I returned them.

Loved the booties the first day I wore them, but on the second day, with socks, my foot slid forward and crushed my toes at the end. Another reviewer mentioned this and I should have listened.
