Customer Reviews Dansko Riley

Nice round top, just like a clog, don't get fooled by the picture! Feels comfortable and provides a good arch support; the color of leather (I got mine in brown) is lighter than in the picture, but can be remediated by applying some dark shoe polish, possibly, hopefully. A great shoe!

Love these shoes. I've worn them all day every day for three days and even kept them on when I got home from work. Not a single sore spot on either foot. I normally wear a 7 or 7.5 so I got the 38 and it's perfect. I could walk miles in these and they're pretty cute too. Less clunky than other Danskos but still a solid shoe that looks like it will last for years. Well worth the money.

This clog/heel combo totally rocks. I'm a school counselor & I needed something comfortable, but professional. I ordered my usual 40 in Dansko & they fit perfectly...they're cute with skirts, dresses and business casual pants. I'll definitely get my money out of these!

These are the best heels! They fit me the same way that Birkenstocks and my Haflinger Clogs fit - so if you know your sizes in those brands, go with the same on these. These shoes don't feel like you are wearing heels at all - they are so easy to walk in, and so comfortable, but they add nice height and have the stylish-ness of a heel. I am going to buy the same shoe in black - these are my go to work shoes now! They are seriously the best!

I love these. I am a Kindergarten teacher, I am also seven months pregnant right now. So, I am on my feet a lot, and unable to wear the majority of my glorious shoes. I am down to sneakers and a pair of Mary Jane Danskos (the Margies). I needed something for Kinder Ceremony and upcoming showers that kind of held my feet in, gave me some height, and wee attractive. These shoes have done it! They were on my feet for 10 hours, and they were comfortable. I normally wear a 38, but because these are not your typical Danskos (they are more narrow) and because I am pregnant I went with a 39. They are absolutely perfect, And I suspect even if I were not pregnant the 39 was the better choice, for my wider feet.

These are very nice shoes but they run small. I never take shoes larger than 8½. The description says 8½-9 but they are too small. Boo. Thanks.

These are nice looking shoes on. Unfortunately they ran so large that I could not get a true feel for comfort. I had ordered other shoes at the same time that I have decided to keep over these, so I am not trying a smaller size.

I tried these shoes on at a local shoe store, so I already knew they would fit. My store just didn't have the color I wanted. I love them.

These are cute and good quality, but a little less comfortable than my other Dansko heels. Will still keep and wear, but not the go-to shoes that my other Dansko Betty heels are.

Definitely well worth every penny! These are so unbelievably comfy and cute too! I can wear them with work slacks, casual skirts or skinny jeans.

So in love with these shoes! They are cute and oh so comfortable. No breaking in period required. They give a great boost in height and best of all...no pedicure required. Definitely going to wear out this pair.

This is a beautiful and comfortable shoe. I wore it for 12 hours straight the first time, and had no problem. It is true to size and width.

I love these shoes! I've been wearing Danskos for years, but these are amazing! I wore the black pair last night on a flight from Reno to Portland. While taking the MAX to the hotel, I ordered the brown pair. Why? Because they are cute and amazing! I'm wearing them at a career fair right now...super comfortable. And did I mention they are cute and amazing?!

I love this pair of clogs. I can wear them all day and my feet don't hurt! I enjoy the fact that I can dress them up while not compromising comfort as I'm on my feet all day at work.

I love this shoe! So comfortable overall - not just for a high heel. And very cute. I got several compliments on them the first day I wore them. Good-looking, higher heels, comfortable - not much more I can ask for.

Excellent shoes! Traditional Dansko feel but in heels. I stand for hours at a time and these are amazing shoes for me!

More stylish in person! I got the brown and the color is awesome. I wear a 38 in clogs and a 37 in open back. Ordered the 37 and the fit is consistent! Super happy with these shoes. Very versatile!

Cute funky shoe that isn't clunky and goes with dresses and pants. More of a causal shoe. I had a bit of a breaking in period as they gave my baby toes blisters. Other than that, very comfortable.

I have spent a lifetime -- some 35 years or so -- in Danskos. I like to walk around during my day, and I like to look sharp. The Margrete was my go-to shoe AND WHERE IS IT? Dansko doesn't make it any more. Instead, the Dansko are getting trendier BUT THEY ARE NOT MORE COMFORTABLE. To me, Dansko have lost half their value -- and the Riley is typical. I accidentally gave it 4 stars -- 3 would be more accurate. It is stylish, but it is not easy to walk around in. My foot is wallowing in the 38 -- I have a full half inch of sole hanging out behind my heel. I can reel in the fit with the buckle, but the shoe is much too big. I know better than to return it, however, because a full size less would not fix the problem. The pain of clomping around in a too-big shoe outweighs the compliments that I get. It's cute. So what. I go home at the end of the day with aching feet just as if I had not spent this much on a Dansko shoe. BRING BACK MARGRETE! It was stylish and comfortable. PS -- I'd like it in a navy blue.

I have wide feet and short toes. You would think that Dansko would be ideal for my feet but not these shoes. Too bad because they were super cute.

I have had many Dansko shoes over the years. This was a big disappointment. They run so narrow I returned them. They did seem to be made in a high quality like in years past but made for narrow feet! I have about size ten feet and ordered a 41. And if I had gone up in size they would have been to long.

The shoe is comfortable and the fit is true both in size and width. Although, I purchased this shoe for work, I will wear the shoe in my off time. The shoe is not what I expected. The disappointment is that the shoe looks very clunky. Good shoe for pants.

I tried both my usual size (37) and (38) based on the other reviews, and found that my usual size fit fit. In U.S. sizing, I am 6.5 or 7 W. I found the Riley comfortable and walkable despite the height of the heel. Its unusual to find a fashionable heeled sandal with a closed toe. Unfortunately site is sold out of the 37 black.

I normally wear size 8 and only rarely a size 7.5, but with Dansko brand size down to a 38. I just received my shoes 20 mins ago and they seem a full size long. There is noticeable shoe exposed in heel area and adjusting the strap doesn't help. These are engineered size difference than the other 12 pairs I have (no joke, I love Danskos, especially these trendier non-clog style). I just ordered down to size 37 and hoping those fit me well so I can buy in both colors...Hello, 14 pairs!

Wanted this shoe to give me height when wearing jeans or black pants. I have a Dansko shoe with same platform base. I didn't like this shoe because the profile of the toe of the shoe when it is worn is not attractive. I know it is the "clog" type toe but the shoe just looked to clunky with my slacks.
