Dansko Professional Shoes - I wear size 10. Shoe states 43 equivalent to size 12. Still feels tight. Sizing very unpredictable.

Dansko Professional - I have heard fabulous things about this shoe. However, they are not comfortable for me. They are too tight across the top of my foot and make indentations soon after standing for an hour or two. I am hoping they will eventually stretch enough to be comfortable because I paid a lot of money for them and they are really cute. Make my size 11 foot look small!

These shoes came highly recommended by my co-workers but I'm not that happy with them. They are a very hard walk...no cushion at all. I've turned my ankle several times in them and luckily have not broken it yet. Seem to be highly durable but not worth the money in terms of comfort/safety.

"Please take them off!" I was truly bummed to find out that, contrary to what I had read, these do not stretch out very well. I even tried taking them to a store to have them stretched for me. Little improvement. The tops of my feet beg me to remove the shoes after just 2-4 hours, not to mention my toes and sides of my feet. My back and knees feel great while I wear them, but my feet feel like they are going to fall off. I start getting clumsy in them as my feet rebel against having them on. These are way too expensive to take a chance, in my opinion. If you try them on at a store, ask for a brand new pair so you won't be trying on stretched out ones. Also, mine yellowed very quickly. I know not all of them do that, but mine did. Hopefully, I can try to give them to some young college student, willing to wait the months it seems to take to have them fit better.

KILLER OF A SHOE - Yes, looks great but kill my feet by the end of the day. Go limping out of work after 9 hours on my feet on cement floors. Have been wearing them only 3 weeks and still waiting for them to stretch. Should have bought half size bigger but they look so great on the foot while sitting. Have a torn ligament in left ankle and now don't know what hurts worse, the ankle or the shoes.

Not for wide feet - I purchased these since everyone raved about them. I have wide feet, and these were not the shoes for me. I had to return them. There is room in the toe box, but not width wise. They were rubbing against the inner ball of my foot. My feet also pronate, so the high arch was very uncomfortable. I was disappointed. Too bad they don't come in wide with a flatter arch, or they would've been perfect for me.

Dansko Professional - Several doctors, podiatrists and nurses in the O.R where I work wear these shoes and highly recommended them, so I bought a pair. They have never been very comfortable for me since I started wearing them a year ago. They seemed to fit perfectly during initial wear but stretched out causing my feet to slip forward with my toes constantly hitting the front of the shoe. I am also developing a bunion which I attribute to the aforementioned slippage. (I wear a size 7 1/2 and bought a size 38. A colleague of mine buys a size smaller than recommended for her true size and has no problems.) The shoes are very sturdy however, and provide incredible support and shock absorption. I have also had a significant decrease in back pain while wearing these shoes.

The color was 'glitzier' in real life than in the photo, which didn't work for me.

There's just something wrong with this style of Danskos. I have ordered three times because I like the color and pattern. I own several pairs of Danskos, including other professional clogs, and always wear size 38. The first pair of 38 were way too big - about an inch behind my heel. I figured they had to be marked wrong so I ordered a second pair of size 38. Also huge. So I ordered size 37. They are the right length but arch is in the wrong place and they dig into my instep. For years, of any style, I purchase a size 38 and they fit perfectly but these do not. Also, I'm afraid they wouldn't hold up well. I have returned 3 pairs of these with no luck! I believe it is this style because I also ordered Dansko sandals in 38 and they fit perfectly as they should.

I am returning the shoes. It just does not work for me. Either small or big and just not right.

These are nice looking shoes but apart from being quite large for a size 9, they just feel strange to walk in, maybe like a true clog shoe. Even if they fit perfectly, I don't think I would keep them.

I know my size in Dansko's as I've worn them for years...a 37. These felt like a 38.5 Very odd. Thank you Zappos for allowing me to return them, I only tried them on and walked the kitchen. Waaaay too big. And they look much cuter online than in person.

I don’t know how to rate this. They say you’re supposed to be able to fit your pinky between the heel and the back of the clog, which I can, but I think my feet are too narrow for this style of shoe. My feet slide forward making my second toe bump the front, which I can see bothering me an hour into a shift. Really wanted to give these a try.

I waited and waited for these to come available in my size,, but was disappointed when I received them. Since they are now made in Chine, the sizing is not the same as before. I have many Dansko shoes and these are by far the largest (same size I always order). I should have sent them back, but sadly, I kept them. I have put inserts in but they are still big. Very disappointed.

I ordered a bit larger as recommended, but these still seemed tight. I thought maybe they needed some wearing-in in order to fit better. 2 months later and they’re still not comfy. I wear these 8-10 hours a day for 5 days a week. I know this is supposed to be so popular in the medical community but I can’t see how. They dig into the top of my left foot but not my right one (and this is after I thought they’d stretch). Overall this was not worth my money and I wish I would’ve got more affordable shoes that probably feel better. I’m going to try crocs next.

I own many pairs of Dansko clogs in the same size - all fit perfectly except this one. I should have returned it but waited too long thinking I could break it in. Super disappointed in Dansko's quality recently.

These shoes were very uncomfortable. my feet were in so much pain after wearing these to work. Not sure why so many nurses or anyone purchases these shoes. They're awful.

I was having back pains and my friend swore by these shoes, and so I bought a pair. They aren’t the best looking shoes I’ve ever seen. Also, after wearing them from more than an hour my feet start to hurt.
