Customer Reviews Dansko Thea

These shoes are stylish and comfortable, and offer more arch support than most other Dansko sandals I own. Based on previous reviews, I was surprised to find that they fit perfectly out of the box (I am typically a narrow-ish US 9 or 9.5, and a Dansko 40 is a lovely fit for me). I purchased these in the sand color, and I have worn them nearly daily since receiving a couple of weeks ago. Danskos are the only heels that I have been able to wear since undergoing several reconstructive tib/fib surgeries five years ago - I also have Debby in black and Marta in red, and these (Thea) gets the most complements by far. I am considering purchasing these in the Marine blue as well.

I love these shoes...and get so many compliments on them! Very comfy and very sturdy. I am usually an 8.5-9 and got a size 40. I am glad I did because the 39 would have been too tight for me. Already thinking about other colors to get.

I just received these sandals and they are absolutely gorgeous! I normally wear between 9.5-10 and I ordered the 41s which fit perfectly. You owe it to yourself to own a pair of these babies, not only are they stylish but I cannot believe how comfortable they are. I've been walking around all day with them on and have had no issues. These clog sandals from Dansko will be taking me through Spring and Summer and I'm sure I'll be ordering more in different colors. Love at first sight!

These were my third pair of Theas. I love the style and love the tangerine color. I find them to be very comfortable. They do make a lot of noise when walking on hard surfaces- according to my colleagues they always know when I'm coming. As for size, my other two theas were a perfect fit ( size 41.) This pair though a 41 were a tad larger then my previous pairs of the same size. The difference, however, was slight, so I kept them. I usually wear a 9-9.5, but for this shoe, the 41 fit my foot.

First I tried the natural, such a beautiful color. From the side, the shoe was flattering on me, but head on it looked oversized and clunky, clod-hopperish. I decided to try the black. Bingo, a winner! I feel so comfortable, so secure, and so fashionable in these shoes. Best Danskos ever! (My feet are not wide, which is probably why I have not had the troubles some other purchasers have experienced.) I'd be interested to hear from people who bought the Thea in blue. I bought the Sam style in blue a few years ago. The color scuffed easily and faded. The Thea blue seems to be more intense. Does it last? I am so tempted to get it.

These are lightweight, super comfortable (as expected) they give you a bit of a lift and subtly elongate the leg. They are excellent with both skirts and jeans. I wish that I had the dough to get them in black and that fabulous green.

Narrower in the toe box than usual for Dansko clogs/shoes. As a person with narrow feet, and wanting to go sock-less, this style is perfect. Very soft leather, comfortable fit. Immediate satisfaction. The perfect warm weather shoe for me.

I love this shoe so much that I bought another pair. They are so comfortable that I highly recommend them.

Love, love these shoes! Loved them so much ordered another pair the next day. Very cute and comfortable! I have a small foot, and finally found a pair that do not fall off my feet. I usually wear a size 6, the 37 fits perfectly. Would recommend these.

Great shoe but felt narrow. I always fit into a 39 but it felt very snug in the width. I am returning and ordering a 40 to see if that will work.

Yeah, this shoe is awesome. Looks great, feels better than any heel I've ever worn. So cute! I'm not normally a heel-wearing kind of person...but I love these.

Love these shoes! I have many pairs of Dansko clogs & sandals. In true Dansko form, these sandals are extremely comfortable & fit true to size. I am a 7 1/2-8 & wear a 38.

I got these in green from another online retailer b/c Zappos was out of it in my size. So glad I got them. Adore them. Yes, they are a bit more narrow than the typical Dansko, but I say thank goodness! Many Dansko styles run too wide. These are comfy and fun. I normally wear a 5.5-6, and the 36 fits me perfectly.

The shoes are super cute and comfortable. I get compliments every time I wear them! They do run pretty small. I normally wear and 38 and had to get a 39 because the 38s were so tight. But I love the shoes and I love Zappos!

Wore these for 10 hours right out of the box; no need for back up shoes. Comfort as I would expect from Dansko. Many compliments on the red (has a pink hue to it). Love them.

Runs a bit small so you may want to consider ordering a half size up. I'm a 6.5 so bought the 37 (6.5-7) which fit perfectly.

These shoes look like they might feel too high heeled for this 49 yr old, longterm Dansko wearer but as soon as I slipped my feet into them I fell in love! They are so comfortable. They just cradle my feet without any snug spots or pressure of any kind. The new heel is a treat; both aesthetically (great style!) and there is a wonderful roll to each step that makes the extra height easy to adjust to. I got mine in brown which is not as versatile with my wardrobe as I wear too much black but at Dansko prices I sure cannot justify another pair anytime real soon. These shoes are fun!

I love this style. These are a little dressier than Dansko, usually is because of the wedge heel. Also like the wide strap across the front is a cute look plus it gives a secure feeling to the fit. They are very comfortable around my apartment. I am not sure how comfortable they would be for wearing all day.

I read the reviews and decided to give these a try anyway. Unfortunately everyone was right about the shoes being narrow. They were too narrow for my size 8M feet. They are pretty cute for comfortable shoes but I ended up going with a different look.

Dansko Thea is super cute and adorable. I bought it in both black and nude. I love the new more sexy design, but they run super narrow and the instep band does not yield. Unfortunately, they went back.

Super, super adorable and on trend. I have pretty wide feet, though, and the top portion of the shoe does cut into my foot, but I am hoping that'll stop once they wear in.

I wanted to love these and in some ways I do. I love the way they look. But they are not comfortable. If your second toe is longer than your big toe, disaster. So painful, because of the way the toes fit in the toebox there is no place for that long toe to go and it gets crushed a little with every step. Also, there is no flex in the sole at all, and this combined with the heel height led to some very painful feet/ankles/hips at the end of the day. I wore these just long enough to get them too scuffed to return, and now they sit in my closet taunting me. I wear them every once in a while, and afterwards I always regret it. Bummer.

The leather's stiffness is a feature of veg-tanned leather. It won't be soft and supple with this type of a tanning process. I knew that when I ordered, and was perfectly prepared to deal with it for the sake of the color and style. My only other pair of Danskos is the "Marcelle" (now called the Maryjane). This has the special sole, not the wood one. Wearing these Theas I didn't really notice any problems with the sole as other reviewers have claimed. The Marcelle, to me, is an inflexible sole as well. I mean, nothing that thick is actually going to flex! So, the fact that the sole of this sandal is wood was not a drawback for me. Unfortunately the design falls flat in one area. The edge of the toe box ends just at the base of my baby toe, which means that my foot then bulges out unattractively right under the edge of the toe box (outer edge of my foot). If the toe box had been about 1cm longer, towards the heel, it would have covered the bump, and I could have stretched the leather width-wise if necessary, but it's just too short. It gives me another Cinderella-Stepsister moment. I have to send them back.

Love the style, but most are right on about the narrowness of the shoe. Not sure what happened to Dansko, but ever since their company was bought their shoes fit worse and worse. I have an old-school pair from about 6 years ago, still wearing them. They are similar in style to the Thea but actually Wide enough (same size, too). Dansko's quality has gone down but these shoes are just right if you want something trendy and almost comfortable for the summer.
