This is my 3rd pair of Dansko shoes and I love them.  As a healthcare worker who is on my feet all day, nothing beats 'em.  I like these because of the finish - the dark gray, super shiny, with subdued glittery undertones topped by a mild prismatic effect. They're not really flashy, just neat when you stop to look at them.

I guess I should mention why I love the Dansko shoes in general.  When I first tried them a couple of years ago, my first reaction was, "they're so hard"!  But I finally broke down and tried them (in place of my usual tennies) and what a difference it made in my legs and back at the end of the day.  I was much less achy and actually had more energy after 12 hours of work.  So even though they feel hard, the shock absorption must be the trick that makes up for the missing cushion.  I don't miss the feel of the tennis shoes one bit!
