Everybody kept telling me about Dansko shoes -- how I had to get a pair.  Well, I'm very fortunate that Amazon had a sale (and I had a gift card), so I didn't pay full price for them, or I'd be even more disappointed.  Maybe they were just too hyped to me as "walking on air", so I didn't expect the blisters.  Yes, I know it's typical for new shoes to give you blisters once in a while, but I sure didn't expect the ones I got across the tops of my feet in these Danskos.  I will try them again when the blisters heal, but for now, I'm pretty unimpressed and I also have no idea why these shoes normally retail for so much; there sure wasn't anything I could see or feel that was distinctive about them.
