Customer Reviews Dansko Professional

I have worn Dansko shoes for about 15 yrs as I need the arch support. While these shoes are the coolest ones I found, this pair does not have the support I'm used to, especially for the left foot. I wore them 2 days and my plantar fasciitis was raging. I tried a week with inserts but that doesn't leave room to wear socks. Now my feet are cold and going numb from constriction. I will stop wearing the shoes. Your return policy does not allow me to return them so I am out the money and the shoes. Not happy at all.

I really like Dansko but unfortunately the finish on these has worn off after 1 week! I even "Scotch Guarded" them with two coats of spray and fully dried them. the metallic rubs right off. :( Sizing is weird, I am a US 8 and had to order the 39's. They fit great.

I'm so disappointed. I've been wearing Dansko clogs for years and years and the quality just isn't the same. I had these shoes for one week and the textured leather started crumbling off the shoes leaving bald spots. I have no issue with the great arch support these shoes provide but I seriously question the workmanship. This is the third pair of Dansko shoes that I've had to return because they started to fall apart, all three times within months of when they were purchased. I miss the days when Dansko made their shoes in Europe - seems like the quality has suffered considerably now that they manufacture their products in China. This is such a shame but I just can't buy shoes this expensive and have them fall apart. I'm going to give Sanitas a try. You should give serious thought to spending this kind of money for inferior materials before you buy.

I love the look of these but the design started to peel off and I haven't even had them for very long maybe a few weeks.

I got these shoes last year in that multi-color stripe version. I fell down hard at least five times wearing these shoes to walk my dog around the block. The problem is they have zero sole flexibility. If I stepped on nuts from fall trees, I was immediately thrown off balance and was thrown hard to the ground. A nightmare. Cracked ribs, twisted ankles... I will never buy these shoes again. I gave them a shot and then some; I wound up throwing them into the trash.

Lots of hype, big disappointment - I generally wear sz. 7 1/2 - 8 1/2 so I started with a 39 - WAY too small, I returned it immediately. Got a 40 - they seemed to fit, so I wore them to work. After a day the top cuff of the shoe had worn a bruise on the top of my foot, on the instep. So I ordered a 41 - the rest of the shoe is even too big, but again the same problem. So now I have two pairs of very uncomfortable, rather expensive shoes that I'm not going to wear to work, which is exactly what I purchased them for. But the footbed provides excellent support -- after all day on my feet, my back didn't hurt like it normally does with other shoes, but my feet were in agony.

Painful! I have bought Dansko products in the past and been very happy. This pair, unfortunately, is extremely painful. I bought them for work and cannot wear them. Since I had faith in Dansko, I wore them to work after wearing them around the house for an hour or so. Now, I cannot return them because they've been worn outside, but I also cannot wear them. I am left with a pair of shoes that cost $115 and they are useless to me. I will not buy Dansko products again.

Didn’t work for me - In order to get them long enough for my size 10.5 feet, I had to get a huge size, and then my feet rattled around in them. Walking slowly around house no prob, but they just don't work because I rarely walk around house slowly! Need to return them.

Dansko too small - I wear a size 11.5 I bought the Dansko 42 and they were too small my feet hurt really bad the sizing is really wrong. The shoes look very nice but something is not correct.

This shoe causes callouses - I bought a pair od dansko professional last of june 2004 and I thought they were wonderful until I formed a callous on the ball of my left foot and now have one starting on my right foot...$110 is alot to pay for shoes and only able to wear them for 3 months. The friction of the shoe while walking in them caused the callous...Such a shame. They were comfortable til they caused the callous....they were the only new shoes I have bought in years. Now I have pain when I walk--will not recommend these shoes to anyone.

Not wide - I buy a lot of Dansko shoes and this pair was the narrowest I have ever put on.
