Beautiful design and color BUT way too NARROW. Why not available in Wide? What a shame.

I ordered this shoe in a 38, my standard Dansko size. They are huge!!! I held them up to another Dansko 38 and they appear to be a 1/2 to 3/4 inch longer. Maybe Dansko mismarked the size? I'm replacing them with a 37 so I'll keep you posted.

At first planned to say they’re too long, but I think it’s just the curve is cut too low—some serious toe cleavage! I buy a lot of Dansko shoes and was depending on these for my wardrobe, but I’ll have to look for some other blue/teal Mary Janes.

Felt tight to my feet. Loved these shoes. The look is beautiful and the shoe itself looks great when on. But, I put it on for 2 hours from the time I left the house to the time I walked into the office, and had blisters on both little toes and the back of the heel. So disappointed. I own plenty of Danskos but this ones killed my feet :(-

I was so disappointed that this shoe had a Velcro closure (contrary to the description) that I returned it without even trying it on

Based upon the reviewers that said this shoe was large, I ordered down-- That was a mistake! This shoe was shorter and narrower than the standard Dansko. The style is cute, and the "Teal" color is actually a greenish teal, not the blue/navy shown in the photos. The heel appears to be closer to about an inch with as small platform.

I normally wear a 39 in Dansko but ordered a 38. I really liked these shoes but based on family input I kept the Dansko Page ones. My daughter said that the buckle on this shoe made my feet look clunky whereas the buckle on the Page is thinner and didn't add bulk. I kept the size 38 Page shoe.

I wear a 6.5, but these 6.5-7 sized shoes are way too big. I would definitely size down! I think the shoe is super cute because of the buckle! I only gave the comfort 3 stars because the leather is hard, not really bendable. The sole has some padding, but could have more. Regardless, I may be exchanging them for a smaller size all due to being in love with the buckle ??????. I took a pic of the gap between my ankle and the back of the shoe for you to see how big it was.

These shoes are great! However, I had to go two sizes down from my normal Dansko size to get a proper fit 40 to 38. Once I did that, the shoes fit wonderful and I love them!!!

I was worried that these would be too big as in the other reviews, but my regular size 40 (9.5-10) fit perfect!
I LOVE these shoes--stylish and mostly comfortable--(but not as comfortable as my Dansko clogs).

Shoes are super cute but the black (at least the ones i ordered) were HUGE! I have 4 pair of Danskos Clogs, heals and mary janes and they are all the same size except these. Weird! Ordered next size down hoping I didn't choose poorly and go 2 sizes smaller

I really like this shoe, but in real life the "Spice" color falls between orange and red, and doesn't match my wardrobe.

These shoes are wonderful, however the run really big! I ordered them in my normal, usual Dansko size, 40, and they were like clown shoes on my feet!! So, ultimately I went two sizes down to a 38 and they fit and feel WONDERFUL!!! Very Happy with them, full recommend.

I found these to be a good fit, true to size and I was in the fence about keeping them. Finally I returned them. The toe was a little too rounded, I wish it had more of an almond shape.

These are very cute. I’ve had several pairs of Dansko’s but these seemed to be narrow and have a very still sole. Sadly returning these cute shoes because I can’t stand in them long enough for work.

I had to return because they were just slightly too large and the heal was shorter than I had hoped. But I’m true Dansko fashion they were very comfortable!

I don't understand how this could be but the Teal pair I ordered felt a half size smaller than the exact same size I ordered in Black. Had to return the Teal, sadly. (Kept the Black, they are awesome and cute!)

I read all the reviews with this shoe but ordered my normal size which is a 38. I have extra wide feet (EE) and these fit just fine. I do think they run generous but since my feet are so wide any extra room would help them work. Love the color and style and look forward to wearing them for the holidays. I especially love the concealed velcro under the buckle which makes them easy to adjust and take on and off. So cute.

The Dansko Brandy runs true to size, but the material is too hard to give way and it causes blisters with normal wear.

Wanted to love these! The style is beautiful- vintage with a modern update. And while I didn’t find them to be uncomfortable, I knew immediately they would t work for what I needed. I’m a ES teacher and on my feet all day. This show is beautiful, but a tad heavy. Would have loved these back when I had an office job!
