Customer Reviews Dansko Leela

The heel was too loose and rubbed

Stiff and not much arch support. Wanted to like but for $135 I needed to love.

This shoe felt like I would need to order the 38 1/2 if it was available. sometimes I can wear the 38 in Dansko. If I were in a store I would certainly try one on. I think the shoe is really cute.

What happened Dansko? These, for me, had absolutely no arch support whatsoever. They felt flimsy and not worth the money.

Really great walking shoes!

Fit is great. I have hard to fit feet with narrow heel and wider toes and this sneaker fits. I’ve had them in black a few years and wear them often, mostly in the house but also on the street and they have held up fairly well. After several years, one toe has scuffing and they are looking worn but I feel this is reasonable given that I wear them a fair bit. They have a leather lining and cushioning is comfortable even though sole is not thick compared to Hoka shoes for example. They go well with jeans or shorts or skirt if you want a casual look.

This is the third pair of this particular shoe that I own (red, black and yellow). Wonderfully comfortable for all-day walking (three weeks in Bologna and Tuscany). I wear orthotics, so the fact they run a little larger than my usual size 7 is fine. The nubuck wears well and the yellow is just scrumptious. The red is more rosy than fire engine, but no big deal. The only reason for a four stars on style is my preference for a more rounded toe. These are my go-to everyday shoes and just as comfortable as the Mephisto All rounders that I used to swear by.

I love this shoe! My feet bother me a lot and they provide the metatarsal support that I need. I can wear them all day comfortably

love it so much that I ordered two more colors. it is so comfortable and pretty.

These are the best fitting shoes I have h for a long time.I enjoy the color as well and get many compliments on wearing yellow shoes at the age of 87.

I really wanted to keep these shoes. I wear a size 10 and these are true to size. The toebox was just a tad bit too narrow for me. Overall super adorable shoe.

This is my second pair of the Leela style. It is such a comfortable and stylish shoe with great arch support. I wear size 10 and 41 has always been my Dansko size. Over the years I have worn my Dansko shoes on a concrete floor for work and they have provided the kind of support that saves legs, hips and your back. The yellow color is fun but be careful not to soil these. Dirt shows easily on this color.

These are very comfortable out of the box. I used on a recent trip and matched a lot of outfits from wide leg pants, leggings, and dresses. They are very cute

These are fantastic shoes. Comfortable, great color.

I'm looking for a casual shoe to wear with bare feet. However, this shoe rubs the back of my heel.

I normally wear an 8 and the 38 fit perfectly with ample wiggle room in the toe box. My feet are narrow so I appreciated that I could adjust the laces for a perfect fit. I bought these to replace my Taos sneakers which had good support out of the box but broke down after a couple months of wear. I’m on my feet all day so I need lots of support and these support my feet in all the right places: arch, ball, heel. I gave only 3 stars for style because they really need contrasting laces. These would be so much cuter with light grey laces that match the soles.

I have the green in size 40 for myself and the blue in size 39 for my 14-year-old daughter. I have a wide foot and my daughter has a narrow foot and they work for both of us. The way they are constructed is with a little extra depth and arch support so they don't look terribly large or wide from the outside but still feel great. I must have tried on 20 other pairs of sneakers before these. Love!

Dansko has always been the best product for me, my feet always feel very supported and stable when I wear their shoes. The Leela has the best arch support I've ever found in a sneaker, and a cute small profile also, nothing clunky about it. I think this sneaker is great to wear with jeans or a sundress/skirt. I have wide toes, a high arch, and small/high heel -- yup, an odd shaped foot. These sneakers were so great I just bought them in a second color. The toe box is slightly snug when i have thick socks on. When I wear them with thin, no show socks, they are extremely comfortable. I'm sure they'll get a lot of wear this summer.

I'm in love with these shoes. I'm a solid 7.5 - 8. I bought the 7.5. They fit perfectly. I literally walked miles in these shoes right out of the box on a recent trip. No issues whatsoever. I have an average foot with a slightly narrow heel. Plenty of toe space - no smooshed toes. I could wear them on consecutive days and my feet didn't get tired. Material breathes well.

Great, love them so much. I am a size 11 M they fit wonderful!! Strait out of the box. I ordered size 42 and wear them without socks next day taking out my dog. No blisters , really comfortable!!

I love these shoes so much that I just bought a second pair to be ready for when they wear out. They're super comfortable and look cuter than typical sneakers. I can walk a ton in them (and have!) without any pain. My foot is somewhat narrow and these fit perfectly. I do need to go up a size based on how they relate the European to US sizing - It's true to size in European sizing but a size too small in US sizing for me.

very comfortable

I bought a very similar dansko sneaker in grey last year. But this is the sneaker I was hoping for. I’m so glad they refreshed the style. These look much less like comfy shoes and more stylish. And they are super comfy right out of the box. The red makes me happy.

Love these. Super cute, super comfy. What more can you ask? Not your typical Dansko look, but the comfort you expect.

Light weight and a decent amount of arch support which I need-- great color
