I am a devoted fan of Dansko, but have never purchased any shoes at full price.  In addition to being "cheap", I also make it a point to find the desired shoes in a local store, try them on, then hunt for the cheapest price. I also usually wait until someone I know has a pair, and then ask their opinion on fit and wear.  But for the first time I purchased a pair sight unseen...full price, no one I know owns them, and they aren't available locally.  Needless to say, I was a tad nervous.  No need...I LOVE them!!!  These may be THE most comfortable Danskos yet.  (I'm now ordering a second pair in another color.)
