I loved the way these shoes looked. I work in life enrichment at a nursing home and needed comfortable shoes that could be worn with skirts and capris. I assumed that because these were vegan Danskos that ordering the same size as a previous non Maryjane style vegan Dansko I own would be fine. This was not the case they were smaller than the other Danskos that I own. On my first day wearing these I had to leave work after 2 hours to get another pair of shoes, because my heels were bleeding. I was finally able to get them worn in so that my heels didn't bleed but only after buying Dr. Scholls heel guards. I was disappointed because I have had luck with other Danskos. This experience definitely proved to me that buying shoes online is a bad idea.
