Very comfortable right from the start. I have a difficult time finding shoes that are comfortable all day long.

Dansko light green -
I love Dansko Professionals & the service I get from Zappos. I will order again soon. I will, in the future, shy away from odd colors; the light green shoe color appeared lighter on the web site & darker when I got them. In the future I will stick to black & brown.

A party for my feet.
Dansko's "Confetti" Clog is so fun to wear and the comfort can't be surpassed.

Great for plantar fasciitis sufferers!
I developed serious foot pain a year back and my doctor prescribed Dansko’s since I work retail.
I can happily credit the 'Professional' with healing my feet.
If you have to stand all day on concrete, get a pair and your feet will love you for them.
P.S. The extra height makes one look taller.
Cheers!

Great for Working All Day!
I have 6 pairs of Dansko's, different styles and colors. I really like the comfort of these shoes. I waitress and I'm an interior designer during the day. Whether I'm lifting trays or re-arranging furniture these shoes allow me to keep great posture and my feet DO NOT hurt at the end of the day. They mold to your foot as you wear them. I do not suggest letting people borrow them. And yes, your heel is supposed to gently lift with every step. They do run true to size you just have to give them a chance to break in like any shoe. I recommend these shoes with 5 stars. And of course Zappos is the only shoe store I need in my life, to get any shoe I want.

What a great shoe! I wear a 4.5 women shoe and I carefully considered everyone's comments about sizing a half size up. Size 35 (4.5-5.0 US) fit perfectly! The shoes were comfortable the minute I stepped into them. Thanks!

Best shoes ever -
I broke my foot four years ago and it never healed. If I wear anything but my Dansko’s, my feet hurt. In these shoes, my feet are never too cold or too hot. My brown leather pair has helped me live pain-free for over three years, and I am finally ready to invest in a new pair. I think I’ll get black this time!!

The most comfortable shoes on Earth -
These shoes are amazing. I'm on my feet all day everyday as a massage therapist in a very busy practice. These shoes withstand everything and feel great. I do a mix of standing still and moving, my feet feel great in them! They look professional, feel good and I think everyone on this planet should own at least one pair.

This is my third pair of Dansko shoes. The fit was perfect and the suede is really nice. I have a high instep, but these were not too tight. They did not need any break in period.

My Danskos Professional -
These are a great shoe for work, casual, or for wearing with dress slacks! They look terrific with my still-new-looking black jeans! Very comfortable and will last just about forever! I have brown Danskos that are about a year old and they still look great.

Delightful, as always!
This is my 5th pair of Dansko Professionals, and I've been thrilled with each and every one of them. They're super comfortable, and people are constantly commenting on how much they like my shoes. This is my 1st pair of felt -- the others being patent leather -- so I'm looking forward to seeing if they wear as well and last as long as the others.

All day, all night shoe!
I am on my feet all day...lots of walking and even more standing. Got my first pair of Dansko Professionals almost ten years ago, and love them so much I ordered a new pair in the "crazy thread" wool! They are comfy with or without socks, and are roomy enough for thicker socks when I get cold. If you are on your feet a lot, give 'em a try!

Needed one size up -
Absolutely love these shoes but needed to order one size larger than I typically wear. I'm an 8.5 or 9 and had to order the size comparable to a 10 (size 40). Fit like butter!

Love Dansko's -
I am an allied health prof. And on my feet for 12 hour shifts. Dansko's are the best. I have tried all types of other shoes and these give me the support that I need for my plantar fasciitis. They do take a little getting used to, but it is just because they are so supportive. My feet don't hurt anymore when I am leaving work. I love the confetti felt design. I get so many compliments on them at work and they are "black" enough to make them ok with our dress code at work. Super cute with jeans too! I usually buy a 7.5 and I wear a 38...the felt ones seem to stretch a little more than the leather ones I have. Love them and highly recommend!

Cool shoes!!!!
I purchased Dansko's Pro (Sky latigo) last month. I mainly purchase it due to comfort and to my surprise the color for this one is very cool. When I ordered this originally, it was quite big, then I returned it and got a smaller size (no hassles) - then MAGIC! Awesome shoes, comfortable, and hip. I highly recommend.

Not a nurse -
I'm not a nurse or other professional that typically wears this style shoe. I work in an office at a desk most days. But I like to park as far from the building as possible (to protect my precious car from door dingers) and anything with a heel kills me by the time I get to my desk and makes walking for the rest of the day a nightmare. So I finally decided comfort was more important than cute and bought this shoe. It's actually really cute with my dress pants because they cover the back of the shoe which is the only part I don't like, aesthetically. The rest of it, I love because it combines my two favorites - platforms and clogs. I only wish they weren't so shiny. I have worn it almost everyday since I got them a couple of weeks ago and have not had a single problem with them. However, the sizing is waaaaay off. I originally ordered a 42 because I wear a size 12. I was hoping for the best even after reading the reviews that they ran small because I really wanted these shoes. It was more like a 10.5. I thought I was just going to have to return them, and then I noticed that they have men's also. So I exchanged them for a 45 in the men's shoe. Absolute shoe nirvana. It might actually be a tad too large but I didn't want to go with 44 and have it be too tight across the top of the foot which is a common complaint with this shoe. (Shades of Truvy from Steel Magnolias - "In any good shoe I wear a size 6 but a 7 feels so good I buy a size 8.") Anyway, definitely buy at the very least one size larger than your street shoe size. I also have a fairly wide foot (I can usually make due with regular width shoes though) but the width on these was absolutely perfect. I feel like I'm wearing slippers at work actually. I love them.

The best clog ever!!!
Years ago I wanted a pair of these, but price was a major factor. I now work EMS and the boots look so manly that I wanted something nurseier! I love them, the support is amazing! They are molded to fit the sole of your foot and provide wonderful arch support as well as to the ball of your foot! Slipping on and off easily, I can jump into my shoes, now if I could just figure out a way to make the uniform better! Basically non slip soles and really comfortable in and out of ambulances all day and night! What a wonderful product! I plan to purchase more clogs from this company, wish I knew about these when I started nursing in 1990! Thanks Zappos! Great product, great price, no shipping!!!

THE BEST support for your arches!
I discovered Dansko’s when I first moved to Boston from the suburbs nine years ago. I discovered that walking everywhere in my trendy shoes made my poor arches ache, my knees hurt and my back ache. Noticing how many people on the T were wearing these, I bought a pair despite the decidedly non-sexy appearance. All my aches and pains miraculously cleared up and I could walk miles and miles and stand all day! Dansko’s take a little getting used to, if you are new to clog-wearing. They are not soft and cushiony like running shoes, but the support is amazing and they don't compress over time. In fact, I have a pair of Dansko’s that I've been wearing for six years straight and they are still just as comfortable as they were brand new! The sizing runs a little weirdly -- I'm a size 7 US, which is usually a 37.5 or 38 Euro sizing. However, the Dansko 37s fit me perfectly.

Suede is gorgeous -
I have had several pairs of professional clogs in the oiled leather, and when I saw them in the suede (chocolate), I just had to have them. The suede is gorgeous and the colors are rich. As always, fit is difficult with Danskos. I wear a 9.5 and ordered a 40. I had to order a second pair, in the same size, as the first pair didn't work, the left one was too small. My other ones are also size 40, and they are fit fine. There is a lot of sizing variation in this brand, so if one pair doesn't work, try another in the same size. But they are wonderful when they do fit, especially if you are on your feet for long periods of time. I don't wear them when I walk for miles, but for standing a lot you can't beat them.

Dansko Clogs -
As a flight attendant, I needed a pair of shoes that would be supportive while in the air, that would help save my feet during long hours and harsh conditions for the legs.
It took me about a month to break in the clogs, which I will admit was NOT pretty. But now, they are complete heaven and have saved not only my feet and legs, but my back feels much better too.

Love ‘em -
I am on my feet a lot and need great arch support and a sturdy shoe. If I had room in my closet I would have every color in this shoe. It helps me to avoid foot and leg fatigue. These shoes are not necessarily for someone seeking a sexy shoe. They are for fit, comfort and long wear.

Very durable, supportive shoe. I am used to wearing support stockings with an absorptive sock, but the sock won't fit in the shoe. It is tight across the top but is roomy enough with just the stocking. So I will use extra foot powder. Next time I will get a size larger. My only complaint is the footbed is harder than I would like. The true test is that my plantar fasciitis doesn't flare up and I work 12-13 hour shift in ICU. Pain free!

Confetti - My Favorite Dansko’s!
I have gotten dozens of compliments on these super-cute Confetti Dansko’s since I bought them a week ago! They match every color and are so much more fun than plain black, but with all the comfort benefits of the classic Professional Clog. Be sure to spray them with a waterproofer every few months to keep 'em clean!
These shoes were true to DANSKO fit - meaning I wear a 37 in my other Dansko’s and a 37 here (US 6.5).
