Size Down!
UPDATE: I’ve worn these clogs many times now and I LOVE ‘em! I’ve also worn them with and without (thin) socks, and they’re comfy both ways. As mentioned in my initial review, you slip on these shoes and you immediately think, “It’s stiff.” To me it’s not a bad thing at all. While walking, the stiff arch support actually feels like it’s giving my arches a nice acupressure massage. This is one of my favorite pairs of shoes nowadays because I can wear them all day and forget about my (early onset) plantar fasciitis. Alas, I can only wear them on casual Fridays at work. I wish there was a dressier version to match business outfits.Initial Review:I uploaded a few photos in this review and you’ll see that a couple of them will have the clog looking too big. That’s because I initially got a Size 6.5 - 7, my typical size. It’s my first Dansko purchase, so I have no way of telling if all their footwear run big. Since I really loved the look of this particular pair, I decided to return and replace them with a Size 5.5 - 6… now they’re perfect (see photos where clog is looking much better on my foot)!1. I’m glad it’s Made in Vietnam instead of you-know-where.2. I expected these clogs to weigh more than the average women’s shoes— they’re clogs after all. The soles have a heavy plastic look, feel, and weight to them.3. Slipping them on, I immediately felt the clog’s stiffness, but it felt good. I’ve been experiencing heel pain and needed shoes that supported both arch and heel. The clog’s stiff arch insole felt reassuring, in that my feet wouldn’t shift left and right as I walked. It also felt like getting acupressure, which I liked. Now, I haven’t worn these clogs for a whole day, so I don’t know if I’ll continue to feel relief or will need to switch to a different pair after a few hours. There’s a roominess to the heels, which when I walked, allowed my heels to move up and down with each stride. I read somewhere that this movement is normal when wearing clogs. In fact, the shoes didn’t come off.As you can see from my photos, the clogs are so cute! They look well-made and durable, and will go with many casual outfits. Since my shoes are new, I can’t comment yet if the leather is scuff-resistant or not. My feet are medium and I don’t have any bunions or hammer toes, or anything— just the heel pain. I mention this because those with wider— or the opposite, narrow feet— or those seeking shoes with a wide toe box might need to look elsewhere. Should I decide to wear socks with these shoes, I’ll probably go for thin ones. Without socks, they feel just fine.

Another wonderful Dansko option to consider for your wardrobe.
I absolutely love these Dansko shoes! They perfectly blend style and comfort, which is exactly what I need for my job in the hospital. I work long hours and spend a significant amount of time on my feet, constantly walking from one department to another. Despite the demands of my shifts, I haven't experienced any discomfort, and my feet feel great even after a full day of work.This is actually the second color I’ve purchased because I adore them so much. The craftsmanship is impressive; they haven't shown any signs of wear and tear, even with regular use. The leather feels incredibly nice and smooth to the touch, adding a touch of elegance to my work attire.I also appreciate the thoughtful design features, such as the buckle. It stays securely fastened throughout my shifts, and the leather is soft enough that I can easily adjust the buckle to fit my needs, ensuring a customized and snug fit. Overall, these Danskos have exceeded my expectations and have become a staple in my work wardrobe.

Incredibly comfortable and therapeutic for your feet and legs.
Love my new black Dansko clogs! Read all the reviews and agree on how incredibly comfortable they are. I can literally stand in place for a long time with out feeling any discomfort. They help your feet so much if you’re on your feet all day for your job. The style with the buckle is super cute and gives the clog an extra flair which I love.

Beautiful and so well made
These are soooooo nice. Soft leather. Beautifully made. I got them for my daughter for Christmas. However, the size we got, she wears a 6/61/2 was too big ! I ordered a size smaller which thankfully was available in a 5.5/6! Fast delivery. Can’t go wrong !

Returned, weird hard plastic at heel
Returned. Good points: very well made, roomy toe box, gives height without a high heel because of thicker platform sole. Downside: weird hard plastic lines the back of the heel. With every step my heel would lift out of the shoe. I also found the inside to not be very cushy. Possibly with time it would mold to your feet. An insert would help but I have a tall foot. Had I put in anything padded the top of the shoe would have put too much pressure on the top of my foot. Sizing seemed accurate but if I wanted to wear heavy socks again the top of my foot would be squished. It is leather so over time it would have stretched. I returned them because my foot lifting out with each step was a deal breaker.

Not very comfortable
Too big and not very comfortable compared to other styles. Much cutier in picture than in person.
