Buy Dansko Women’s Professional Patent Leather Clog at Amazon
I have six pairs of Dansko clogs, full back and backless, oiled, patent and nubuck leather. I absolutely love them, there’s nothing more comfortable (which is why they are popular among nurses and other professionals who are on their feet all day). HOWEVER….Dansko provides their merchants with a size chart which is NOT ACCURATE for women’s sizes. I am usually a women’s size 11, which according to their chart would be a size 41. Not so. I take a 43 in these shoes. And if you look at their size charts where they list men’s AND women’s sizes, you’ll see how impossible the numbers are. Size 43 is listed as men’s 9.5-10 or women’s 12.5-13. No way these two could be equivalent. So do try on some Danskos BEFORE you order online, save yourself the bother of having to exchange them.
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 .
