I love Dansko. Dansko is one of my favorite brands, so I didn't hesitate to buy this boot. I tried them on immediately after they arrived and was sorely disappointed. I found them to be stiff and uncomfortable. I would guess that it would take a few blisters and wearings to break them in.

Also the picture makes the front or toe of the boot look more elongated. I found them to look more short and stubby in person. On me, they looked bizarre.

In addition, I bought a size up to accommodate for thicker socks and felt that they were still too small and tight even without the socks. Again, I found it to be bizarre.

It's really too bad because these boots looked really awesome.
