Customer Reviews Dansko Professional

The right clog felt too narrow in the vamp, even though I ordered my regular size but in wide simply because that’s all that was available. Will be ordering one size larger in regular width & hopefully they will fit much better!

This is my first pair of Danskos. I haven't worn them yet, but they feel good, and the colors are super bright, which I like.

While I love this shoe and will have to put a shoe liner in it to make it fit. It does run big, however, since I love it I will have to make it fit. Runs like a size 35-36 as stated in the shoehorn in the box.

This is the original Dansko clog, inside and out, I've been wearing for 20 years. However, the pair before this was the new "waterproof" version which I was surprised to find had more cushioning (not in the description) so while that was nice on my feet they were a little more cramped. So, not realizing that it was a design change that either has not been rolled out to all the SKUs yet or one specific for the waterproof version, I ordered this next pair a size up for the new cushioning...that didn't end up being there. So, these are true to size, but I got the wrong size after all these years because I expected that ALL of them had cushier insoles. That being said, these are as excellent as they always had been. I'm just a little disappointed having had a pair with a little softer (but just as supportive) insole last time to find out that not ALL of them have the upgrade in design. The size is such as it always was; I can wear a little thicker sock and be perfectly happy.

So I bought a size up after reading reviews and after talking with colleagues...I normally wear a women’s size 8 so I bought the size 39 and without some thick socks I am sliding around in these shoes! With that being said, I wish I would have gotten the 38, but the 39’s have been doable. I work in the operating room so I stand almost all day and these shoes really do make a difference in decreasing my foot and leg pain at the end of the day.

I bought these shoes because I absolutely LOVE the color. But this shoe just isn't as comfortable as the XP 2.0- heavier and just not as cushioned. Sadly, I returned them.

I had a pair of Dansko shoes years ago and loved them. I ordered my normal size 6.5 and the shoe was way too big for me. It seems like the sizing as changed on these shoes over the years as I did not have a problem with my previous pair. Nice looking shoe and I liked everything else about it but much too big so I will be returning them.

Have truly enjoyed clomping around in these shoes for the past 2 weeks. Am a nurse in the ER. Pretty print and loved the extra height (am 5'5 the shoe adds 2 inches). At first I did not have any issues with the shoe fitting and being comfortable. Am normally a size 7 and ordered a 37. Unfortunately today one of the shoes (right shoe) became so uncomfortable and caused so much discomfort I had to run to the car mid-shift and change into my old dumpy tennis shoes. Granted I normally walk 11,000 to 14,000 steps per shift. The pain was localized to the top of my foot. Top of foot is now swollen and red (looks like an inflamed tendon). HOWEVER would still recommend the shoe because I enjoyed walking in them so much prior to the tendon issue. also----i I got the black cheetah pewter leopard patent color and I highly recommend the color choice

Size is consistent with every other Dansko professional I've purchased over the last 20 years and I love the look of the natural colored heel with black upper. The only issue I have is with the relative comfort of these shows. The insole is very hard. I have 2 other Dansko Professionals from a few and several years ago and these seem harder. They are definitely harder than the Dansko XP 2.0s which I bought with this order and ended up keeping, as they are much more comfortable. If I didn't try the XP 2.0s, I would have kept these, as they are not uncomfortable, but the XP 2.0s are noticeably more comfortable.

I consistently wear a 39 in Dansko. These felt bigger than the usual 39. I even tried wearing socks - still swam in them. I’m going to keep them for winter and just get some thick socks.

love these shoes so much!! as an ICU nurse, I am always on my feet and these are one of the only shoes that don't cause any foot pain. I do tend to size up-if I order my true size I have to break them in quite a bit or I will have some pain on the top of my foot. The color (Stone Waxy Burnished) SO COOL. I get compliments all the time at work, and honestly could probably rock them with some boot cut or flare jeans and they'd look like round toe boots. The gradient is a little less subtle than the picture suggest, but it still works!

SO cute! My usual size but couldn’t get my foot into it.

This shoe's fit was fine, feels like the same quality in other Danskos I own. I am sending it back because of the color. It's kind of a rose red which didn't work for me.

I have an old pair of Dansko Professionals that have held up beautifully for years. I would think these would be the same but I am sending them back because of the color. It is too much of a yellowish brown.

I know everybody swears by these shoes, but I find them very uncomfortable. There is no cushioning at all in the sole. It feels like you're walking on hard wood. I wanted to remove the insole to put in a softer insole so there would be some cushioning, but the insole is sewn into the shoe and is not removable. I also find them heavy and clunky. I feel like Herman Munster wearing them. I know I'm a minority opinion, but if you like cushiony feeling shoes, don't get these.

Teachers love Dansko! These do have less of a fabric look than I was expecting, but still very nice.

Don't get me wrong, I love dansko clogs. I've worn through (as in the rubber sole split in half at the ball of the foot) three pairs of the brown oiled leather ones, I wear them every day at work. I just got the honey distressed ones because I love the wood grain heel! Sadly the fit is totally different than the other brown oiled and the black box leather ones I have (???) I wear a 41 wide but the honey distressed in that size were falling off my feet, could fit two fingers behind the heel instead of a pinky. I was very confused but not deterred. I ordered them in a 40 wide, and I also ordered the coral distressed ones in a 41 regular width, thinking maybe since they run big the narrower width will be ok. The regular width on those was perfect, but the shoe was way too long. The 40 wide was perfect width but my toes hit the front :( Honestly I'm so sad... because I just want these to fit the same :( guess it's not meant to be. Still wearing my other ones daily ^_^ Tldr; The honey and coral distressed run bigger than the black box leather and antique oiled leather versions

So Sad...wish these had fit. I wear a 10 and my toes were scrunched in the toe box without socks. Had to return. Go the next size up if you're a 10.

Looking for a supportive work shoe for a clinical lab. Enough though I ordered wide, not wide enough for my bunion cursed feet. Nice quality and look with length being just right. Sadly returning.

I do not have excessively wide feet and usually take normal width but I feel the professional run narrow, so I ordered wide which fit just slightly wide versus other wide shoes I've tried on.

I love the shoes, except they are extremely tight over my forefoot. I am trying to stretch them because it actually becomes painful after a few hours.

The color is just what I wanted but the left foot has a bunion on it. So it is uncomfortable.But I will try a small bunion pad on the left foot. I’m hoping the leather will The color is perfect. Since I have a bunion on my left foot right now it is uncomfortable. Do you think the leather will stretch? I’m not sure how to resolve this problem.

I love wearing danskos professional for my 12 hr shifts as a nurse. They always feel stiff and hard at first and take a while to break it but after 1-2 weeks they are great.

If you are prone to rolling your ankles then these are not the shoes for you. They have excellent arch support and the honey color is beautiful but I managed to trip in these shoes several times just testing them on a walk around my apartment. They're just too tall/loose for me but they would be great for someone with stronger ankles/better balance!

This is the first time I've purchased a low profile Dansko shoe. I usually wear bootie styles and live in a colder climate so it makes sense. For whatever reason, I hesitated to by this standard style despite the the excellent reviews. So, thank you Zappos for putting them on sale and having my size which gave me the nudge I needed. I love them and plan to wear them to Europe in fall. There's only one issue: I bought the moss color and wonder what to do when they get scuffed (two days of wear and they already have scuffs on the toes)? Is there such a thing as moss green shoe polish?
