DanskoPaisley Waterproof Outdoor Sneakers for Women-Comfortable,Breathable Walking Shoes with Arch Support-Stain Resistant Sneakers with Slip-Resistant Rubber Outsole

I bought my first pair at Zappos and this second pair, black, at Amazon, as Zappos colors and sizes were very limited at the time (I like Zappos policies and shipping much better, but again, the second shoe wasn't available). The shoe shape is ... not the most attractive, somewhat rounded and bulby like a Keen, BUT, despite that, it does look cute. My picky sister thought they were cute too, not orthopedic and clunky like many of the Dansko shoes. I like the colors, and, although some customers complained, I feel bouncy yet sturdy in the shoes. I wanted a shoe that I could wear with slacks but not uncomfortable, more like a tennis shoe-oxford tie hybrid. The uppers are very stiff so I can't tighten the lower lace area, but that isn't necessary at this time. I started wearing Dansko when I had plantar fasciitis; I had much wider feet at that time so I wouldn't have been able to wear this shoe model as it's not wide. Some folks complained that the sole was slippery on wet floors; I cannot address that I didn't want to wear them my first time in winter nor do I work on wet floors; I'm sure they would do as well as any non-snow boot on snow and ice. I can't address the arch support; I have flat arches but don't notice either way with this shoe.

I wanted a walking shoe for my trip to the British Isles that was sturdy, waterproof and comfortable. These shoes filled all my expectations except for one. At the end of the day my feet were a little tired and cramped after walking miles but I think it was the shape of my feet that affected the comfort level or it was that the shoe was a little stiff. Need to wear heavy socks to be comfortable. Overall, I was very happy with my purchase.

I love the look of these Dansko shoes and they go well with my outfits. They have a fairly sturdy sole with vibram grip on the bottom. The toe box has enough room for feet that have wider toes. The shoe part of the heel tends to wear easily from putting it on and off. I wish that part did not wear out so easily.

I really wanted to love these shoes, but they are simply not as advertised. This is super disappointing since since they’re not inexpensive. As far as comfort, they cannot be beat! I’m a baker and am on my feet 8-10 hours a day. I have an unfortunate combination of high arches, narrow heels, and bunions. Finding a shoe that fits well, yet alone is comfortable is very difficult. These Dansco shoes are not only comfortable, but offer amazing arch support and enough room in the toe box that my bunions aren’t rubbing on the side of the shoe. They are also relatively easy to break in, which took about 4-5 days. Word of caution, order up a half size.Now that all the good thing have been addressed, let’s talk about the bad. These shoes are advertised as slip resistant, which they are definitely NOT. The very first time I walked across a freshly mopped work floor I nearly face planted into a prep table! This is really frustrating since I’m required to have slip resistant shoes for work. These shoes are also advertised as water resistant, which they are not! The first thing I do when I get home from work is take off my shoes because my socks are wet.So, to review…. Very comfortable and well made shoe which should hold up for a while. Shoes are NOT slip resistant and they are NOT water resistant, which is very disappointing and dangerous if you’re buying these with the intention of using them as a work shoe.

Second pair. Love for when I am on my feet or for walking. A little heavy, e specially for vacation, but for me well woth it as I have high arches, pain, and bunions.My last pair were not “wide” and were a little tight at first. So I let out the laces. These are perfect for support and width. Long-lasting sturdy shoe. Great company.

Shoes fits as expected. Very comfortable. Plenty of room in the toe box. Just wish heel came up a little higher; feels like it could slip off so I just tie a little tighter.

I love the way these sneakers feel on my hard-to-fit feet. I have a tailor's bunion. My feet feel great in these shoes. I take a size 9, so I am used to my feet looking rather large. It doesn't normally bother me, but I noticed my feet look small in these shoes. But the shoes are roomy and feel very comfortable. It's just something about the design which looks very good.

I like these shoes for the most part. They are fairly comfortable. The ridge at the tie off point took some breaking in initially.However, my biggest beef with this shoe is the labeling of "slip resistant". I am a chef in a busy kitchen and have found that these shoes are of no use on a wet concrete floor.

very comfy. solid and lots of toe room I like them lots pricy though

I was expecting a lot from these shoes considering the price point, but I was disappointed.On the first day I used them at work, my right foot was uncomfortable because I could feel a blister forming on the top of my toe(the one next to the smallest).I took out the removable insole and replaced them, but still no change. These shoes are very uncomfortable so far, but I'll give them another week just in case they need to be broken in.I ordered a wide, but I'm wondering if these are a narrow fit. It's funny because it's only my right foot that's getting the blister.They feel heavy and clunky, and my right side is taking a beating from wearing them.Very disappointed. I might have to return them.

This is a really nice shoe , great quality , nice look , plenty wide enough for my foot but it was to large and they didn’t have half sizes so my heel got rubbed . Blisters sucked as a kid don’t want them now .

I am so incredibly impressed with these shoes. I have an issue with my big toe joint and it was so painful. These showed have saved my active life style. They are beyond comfortable and they don’t hurt my toe when I walk. A dream come true. Love them!

Dansko shoes are the only shoes I wear. I find that I don’t need to insert my orthotics in Dansko shoes. I’m so happy with the fit and comfort of these runners. They look great with or without socks. There is ample room in the toe box. I have not yet worn them out in the rain but it is good to know that these are waterproof. I got the navy and may buy another pair in a different colour. This is a great quality shoe and well worth the price. I wear size 36 and these fit perfectly.
