Customer Reviews Dansko Harlyn

I love Dansko shoes for their support and wide toe box. I ordered the 7.5-8 wide, and they fit great, are light weight and very comfortable. I can wear them with or without socks, and they slip on and off without having to tie and untie. Perfect!

These are tight all over. They feel a size too small. I could get my foot in the shoe, but it is snug in every direction. It seems to have reasonable support, but it's hard to say without actually being able to walk with them on. I like them enough to order one whole size larger hoping they will work. Love the color and look.

I really like these shoes. They fit well and don't look as clunky as most sneakers. They were purchased for a traveling walking shoe and I think they will be perfect for that.

I was not sure about ordering these shoes after reading some of the previous reviews with complaints about the laces, but I'm glad I did! I normally wear a wide shoe because I have a high instep complicated by a bone spur growing right on top -- I need space so that there is no pressure on top of my foot. These shoes in my normal 7W are perfect. The arch support is good -- it's not "knock it out of the park fabulous" but it feels good. I had no problem slipping these shoes on and off my feet, but they feel secure on my feet. I'm pleased and look forward to wearing them on a travel trip where I plan to do lots of walking in varying terrains.

I have never reviewed a shoe before, but I am now because this shoe is amazing. I can wear it all day and never think about my feet. It even gives me an extra bounce to my steps - so very comfortable!

Confortable for walking Looks good too :)

Comfortable from the get-go and I like this new style is easier to get in and out of you don't have to touch the laces

Excelent!

I usually have to swap out inserts for something more padded, but these were perfect out of the box. Arch support is above moderate, but maybe not if you have high arches. Super flexible, can wear without socks, and I wore these everyday when traveling without any concern of blistering. I will definitely buy again when I wear this pair out!

I'm saving these for my trip to Italy in September, so I haven't worn them yet, but they feel amazing straight out of the box. I read the reviews and worried about the width and laces, but neither is a problem. I ordered my usual size and they fit perfectly. I love Dansko.

Love these shoes. I have been wearing Danskos for years and have many pairs. I always wear a 41 except for once or twice when I had to downsize to a 40. (I always wear 10 in American sizing.) These shoes are super comfortable. Nice arch support and very cushy. I expect to be able to walk miles in them without trouble. I think they may be the granddaughter of the old "Helen" which is equally cute and comfy on my size 41 feet. Helen was discontinued so I have been looking for a replacement and this one exceeds. Love the new lacing system too- super easy to pop on and off without the bungee. Zappos, as always, came through once again as it took several styles to please my troublesome feet. thanks, Zappos!

Great fit and look snazzy!

I like the sneakers, but found them oddly tight around my toes. They may have been fine over time but need them for long vacation walking immediately so I had to return them.

Just a little short. Otherwise very nice fit.

Feet turned in while wearing the shoe. Heel cup was too firm.

Tremendous support! The lacing system is new to me and I’m not sure how I feel about it. I will say that besides that, these shoes are so comfortable I do not want to take them off. So many shoes when I pay attention to my spine, cause my knees to fall inward. These I am standing straighter and taller which will help my shoulders, posture, and save my back issues. The support is firm like their clogs, but because it is a sneaker, it is cushioned. I can’t say enough good about the support. I prefer a 41 in the clog, but would recommend a 40 in these.

Runs small. I’m a size 9 and there’s nothing comparable in European whole sizes, so Dansko is difficult for me fit. I got a 39 in these and could barely get my foot in it. I bought another style of Dansko in a 40 and it was too big.

I am a Dansko devotee. I have boots, heels, clogs, wool slippers. However, this Harlyn, (though nicely custom adjustable in width along the shoe), had no arch support where I need it. Cute shoe on. Dansko's Henrietta style fits me perfectly. I've bought six pairs of them over time so far. I can also wear the waterproof Paisley last. Good support, a little roomier, nice for warm socks. A bit to warm for summer due to waterproofing.

Toe box narrower than my previous purchase.

not comfortable

Liked the Henriette, these looked like the same thing but without the hard plastic overlays. Seemed like it would be an improvement. Should have read the reviews before buying - Dansko redesigned the laces, and these are not easy to adjust. Either the shoe flops off my foot or I tie off the laces and they poke straight up. Will return and buy another pair of Henriette instead.

I couldn't SLIP my foot into shoe without removing laces.

I have a size 9 wide foot. Typically in Dansko professional clogs I take a 41 or 41 wide, and in sandals I take a 40 but need adjustable straps to accommodate my wide foot. I tried this shoe in a 40 wide. It fit OK -- just slightly slipping in back heel, though maybe a thicker sock would handle this. However, there was minimal cushioning or support in the sole of the shoe. It also felt like the base of the shoe was narrow and I was teetering on it, a surprise in what appears to be an athletic shoe. I liked the style and could imagine wearing them with jeans, pants, maybe even a skirt or dress. But the lack of cushioning was a deal breaker for me. I am going to go with a pair of Rykas instead.

Great style but they run small
