This is my second pair of the same shoe. I wear a 9 and ordered a size 40 in black. They fit a little more loose than I like to wear my shoes, but I bought my first pair in a store and was told this is how the shoe is supposed to fit. I bought my first pair 2 yrs ago for a 2 wk trip to Europe. I knew I would be walking a lot and I was so glad I had these. I wore them with dark jeans and the shoes looked like boots under my jeans. I took a pair of slide on leather clogs, but never wore them. I wore these for 8+hrs daily, two weeks straight and walked all over Paris and Rome.

When I returned home, they became my work shoes. I work 12hr shifts as a nurse and it has been about 21months since I first wore them. The only place that has not held up is the soft material on the edge at the back of one of the shoes. The stitching has come undone a little, but is only noticeable when pulling my foot out- I just have to hold the material in place with my finger, instead of using my other foot to hold the shoe in place and pull my foot out.

These are comfortable Dansko clogs. I have tried on the more popular style (what most people like to wear at my hospital) that is more rigid and was told, " you have to get used to them, then you will love them". But, I want to like them from the start and I did with this clog.
