This  shoe  from  Dansko ( now  made  in  China )  was  Not  available .  so  I  agreed  to  the  Sanita  ( original  Dansko  per  seller  & made  in  Europe )  which  was  in  stock  .
Out  of  the  box  ,  it  looked  exactly  like  the  picture  but  the  beauty  ended  there .
I  own  over  a  dozen  size  10s  but  Not  any  Danskos  and  do  have  a  rule  Never  to  buy  a  brand by  mail  or  internet  that  I  do  not  already  own or  have  tried  on  .  I  broke  this  rule  to  buy  this  shoe  and  Re-learned  a  very  pricy  lesson .  ( $20+  for  return  shipping  and  restocking  fees )  Although  they  list  as  a  9.5 -  10  ,  which  indicates  a  9.5  could  wear  a  sock  and  the  10  would  be  barefoot  or  a nylon ,  this  shoe  can Not  be worn  by  a  10 .  I  was  barely  able  to  get  my  foot  in  and  there  was  serious  rubbing  on  the  toes  when  I  actually  moved .  There  would  have  been  blisters  in  no time .  The  9.5  may be  able  to  wear  them  barefoot  but  the  stiff  upper  and  hard  plastic  heel  liner  would  still  make  it  an  ugly  experience .
The  possible  use  for  this  shoe  is  as  a  wet  weather  shoe  with  heavy  socks  but  you  will  need  to  buy  them  2  sizes  larger .
1  week  later  I  bought  pair  of  Dr Scholls  9.5  that  fit  wonderfully  and  I  wear  for  hours  without  any  blister  issues .
I  did  notice  that  the  Euro  sizing  on  his  was  2  points  higher  than  listed  on  the  other  9.5 - 10 .
Maybe  the  Dansko / Sanita  manufacturer  has  size  conversion  issues  from  Euro  to  US  ?
Try  this  shoe  on  in  the  store  BEFORE  you  buy .
