It's taken me a long time to put this brand on my feet.  I have MANY friends who love Dansko's.  I cracked these out of the box, on my feet and I may wear them to bed.  These are comfy and fun.  I'm still trying to decide about the colors (black is always safe) so I'll probably wait until next season to buy another pair but there will be another pair!  I am usually a 10 that can sometimes slide down to a 9.5 with an open back shoe.  These are exactly right and I feel like I'm wearing shoes, not a piece of inexpensive plastic.  And I might say that as someone of Scandinavian descent, they are bringing out my inner Svenska.  Love them!
