I have worn Dansko clogs for years. I have trekked all over the world as well as the city with these and they are my go-to shoes for my job. They are unassuming, comfortable, and neutral looking. The oiled leather does scuff easily, but because I am not the shoe-shine kind of gal, that is just fine with me. It gives them character. The red is as pictured and tends to work well with other "red" accessories.
