Customer Reviews Dansko XP 2.0 - Deleted

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.

For the medical professionals out there - very tight on dorsal aspect of the foot. My foot was numb within 30 seconds! Had to return it.

I was really excited about these and I love my other Danskos, but I couldn't even get my foot into this pair. The instep was super tight even though I do not have a high instep. The length was about right and if I removed the footbed, I could fit them on, but that eliminates all the cushioning. Sadly they had to go back.

I wore my Dansko XP 2.0 for about a week once they arrived and the staples have already started to separate. Extremely disappointed considering her last pair lasted forever.

The instep was too far back on my foot, so the shoe rose and hurt my foot. The heel is low, and slips off my heel. Feels like the shoe rocks me backwards on my heels, more weight on my heels.

The shoes are fine. Zappos sent me used shoes. I can’t pay full price for used shoes.

I bought these shoes from another retailer but am reviewing here/everywhere to raise awareness of how dangerous these shoes are. While simply walking in clinic they caused my ankle to roll with serious injury. I have spoken with over 20 other health care professionals so far with similar experiences and have seen multiple online.posts about this issue. Buyer beware!

I’ve been wearing Dansko for over 30 years and all the sudden I’m a size smaller. Makes it harder cause I’m now a women’s 5 and selection and style are limited. Still love Them tho!

These are great of course. But: for those of us with high insteps : beware. Before pregnancy I wore a 38, and after pregnancy am now a 39. When I buy the right size of this shoe everything fits except the area sounding the insole, which pinched so much my toes go numb. These were the first shoes I bought after Pregnancy so I thought it was just me needing to buy bigger shoes now and donated the first ones after just few months thinking oh well that’s the price we pay when our bodies change but this time I sized up to a 40 and they are too big length-wise but still a bit pinching on the instep. I have never had real success with having shoes stretched but now I realize that’s what I should have done to have accurate sizing. Spent a lot of money on this now and have shoes that don’t fit. Bummer.

I have been buying Dansko clogs for a decade. I have loved the Professional and the XP was my go to for everday clogs....I have had at least four pairs of the original XP. This was the first XP 2.0 that I ordered, I am returning them as the fit has totally changed and I had pain after wearing them. They moved cushioning crating an awkward fit and they were about 1/4 size larger than previously with the original XP or Professional. I guess I will stick with the Professional. So glad Zappos customer service is so great. I also let Dansko, the company know.

I have lived in Dansko clogs for 2 decades! They are an easy on-off shoe when running in and out of the house with little kids. And they were great for my back when working all day. I particularly liked the XPs because they were lighter and more cushioned. Sadly, I went to order my usual size (41) and it was way too big, so I sent them back and ordered a 40, which had my toes pushing up agains the ends (meanwhile the heels were very wide). Don't know why they changed something that had worked so well. I haven't bought a pair in 2-3 years, so if you have more recently, then these sizes may fit fine for you.

These shoes were a god send when I got them! I’ve worn Dansko’s for years and as soon as I slipped my foot it it was heaven! I have had these shoes now for 3 months and they have absolutely fallen apart. The leather looks like I’ve had them do years, broken down, misshapen, and then the foot bed has fallen a part! Where the ball of my foot rests has completed come a part and worn away. At this point I want the professional clog footbed with the XP 2.0 slip resistance. I am on my feet 10-11 hrs a day and need Dansko for my hips and back but can’t spend $150 every 3 months on shoes.

Bought these on March 1st and wore them until July 1st. I was cleaning them up to wear them back to work, and noticed that the bottom is coming off. I’ve worn Dansko clogs for work for many years and never had them fall apart after 4 months of use. I’m very disappointed.

My previous danskos I had for over 10 years and was excited to replace it with another pair. These were even more comfortable than my old ones and I didn't even have to break them in. But......here is the reason for one star review. In less than 3 months of use the staples along the sole have started to come out causing the uppers to separate from the sole. So disappointed and of course, I can't return them because they have been worn:(

These were way too large. I ordered a regular, but I received WIDE width - simply too large. Otherwise it's one of my favorite shoes.

I bought this shoe in size 40 and 41 and found 40 too small and 41 too large! I wear the standard Dansko clog size 41 and these have been consistent for many years. However, the XP versions do not seem to have the same size standardization. This is really dissappointing since I would have liked to go with the lighter version.

The shoes received had dirty soles, had creases in the tops, and obvious wear on the inside. These shoes have clearly been worn and returned in poor shape. They have not been checked, but were just sent to the next buyer. Not so good on Zappos end.
