Customer Reviews Dansko XP 2.0

To Rachel who wrote a review 10/15, I know people who have sent used beat up Danskos back to Dansko and they replace them. I know one girl who had a pair that developed a problem after a year, she sent them to Dansko and they sent her a new pair. You could try that. For the review: I’m an ICU nurse and I’ve had both Dansko Xp and pro for years. They’re all I will wear at work. These clogs are not perfect and my feet still hurt at times but I have literally never found anything better than Danskos. I think if you have a job where you’re in your feet most of the time, sometimes your feet are just going to hurt a little. Get the Danskos. You won’t be sorry.

There is nothing wrong with this shoe - it fit true to size and width, seemed to have good arch support, but within a minute I could tell that it would not have the shock absorption that I - overweight and missing all the cartilage in one knee - need. I sent them back, bummed, but I have to have a lot more cushion than what this shoe has. I would recommend them for the average person with no caveats, though - a great shoe, just not for someone like me.

I always wear a size 39 in Dansko Professionals, and I'm usually a US size 8 or 8-1/2. I purchased the XP 2.0 in my usual 39, but they were too big and I'm returning them. I'm keeping the Navy 39 Professionals that I also bought, as they're true to size. The next time I'm ready to buy a new pair of Danskos, I'll try the XP 2.0 in a 38. I liked the soft footbed on the XP 2.0, but for now I'll stick with my tried-and-true Professionals.

i really liked these shoes. unfortunately, i returned them because after a while when i would be wearing them, the bottoms of my feet felt like they were “burning.” i work 16 hour shifts so i need something more comfortable. they style is great! i might try again in the future, but for now, i returned them. i ordered a 40W and they fit for the most part, but the tips of my toes brushed the top of the shoe, so if i order again, i’d go with a 41.

These are a very solid shoe and pretty cute, for a black clog. I got the tooled design so it has a little personality. I'm not a nurse but needed a solid comfortable shoe, especially after having both hips replaced and returning to work at a sit/stand desk job. They are softer inside than the regular Professional, which is really nice. But they are softer, not soft...the regular ones are very hard. I find them just right for me. You do have to get used to how they are worn and know that they are not snug on the heel or the toe, but in the right size, they do not come off. You just walk in them almost like you're barefoot. My feet feel free. I think they work your legs more to "keep you in line" since they are a rigidly structured shoe. I had a bit of break in period near a pinky toe where it would rub a little and on the band across my arch, which felt tight... but now I don't notice after intermittent office wear. My only complaint about these shoes is that even though I have high arches, the arch is quite substantial and can make my left arch ache if I wear them too long. It actually felt better in the next size up, but the shoe was too loose, so I wore them in spurts in the office to see if it would ease up, and either they have adjusted to my feet or my feet have adjusted - at least enough that I will keep them because they are a relief to stand in and kind of fun to walk in since you don't feel them very much. I wish they came in more office- and regular-life-friendly colors (and not just black and dark), because as adorable as the fun styles are, I can't justify the cost for a shoe that doesn't go with my clothes. If you've never worn these, I advise that you try them indoors on the surface you'll likely be wearing them most, a little at a time, and see if they are, or become, comfortable after increasing your time in them. They are pricey, but they are extremely solid. I love Danskos. They take some getting used to in many styles, but they are certainly well made and the footbeds are very supportive. Also, my clogs don't always squeak, but sometimes they do, and so do my Dansko walking/hiking shoes (always). Apparently, it's a thing, and not actually a defect, and there are fixes on various websites. If they do squeak you'll have to decide whether it's annoying enough to give them up.

I originally ordered a 41 since I’ve not had the best luck with Dansko sizing. I returned it for the 40, which are the same size as the pair I bought 10 years ago. Pattern is nice and subtle. They aren’t the same as my originals but you just can’t beat the comfort of these if you’re a nurse. My return/exchange was super fast and easy like always. Thanks Zappos.

I'm a 9.5 and have purchased many Danskos usually size 40. The last couple of years the 40's have run large. These were too big. All else about them great.

This is my second pair of Danskos. The first pair was the Professional style. They were super comfortable, but I would slip often. Deal breaker was ending up flat on my back in my local grocery store one rainy day (INJURY to insult of being mandated to stay past my shift!) A fellow nurse recommended the XP, assured me they would be slip proof. So far so good. I wear a size 9; ordered the 39, and they fit perfectly. Super cute, and I can be on my feet for the entire shift without any pain. I highly recommend this style.

I’m disappointed...when you spend this much for a pair of shoes they should be perfect. Big gouge on the front of the shoe.

ordered by size I normally wear, size is 1/2 size smaller

according to customer reviews you should order a half size larger. We did that and they were too big, exchanged for the proper size and they fit well.

They're a hair too small. I'm exchanging for the next size up, praying they're not too big. Thanks Zappos for making it easy!

This is my first pair of Dansko clogs, but I have two pairs of Dansko sandals I purchased last summer and really love. I wear size 8-8.5 in my other brands of shoes and prefer a medium to wide width for comfort. All three pairs are size 39 and fit about the same. My podiatrist recommended I try the clog to help with recovery from a joint implant on my great toe. It has taken me a few wearings to get used to the heel slipping. They are really comfortable even for long periods of standing and walking. I do not feel secure enough to walk on cobblestones or very uneven surfaces because of the heel slippage. I will save that for the sandals which have buckles. The brown pull up clogs are a very deep color and look very nice with either jeans or slacks.

Super comfy, but just too large overall.

This is my first purchase of this brand, my friends have them and love them. I do like them they are comfortable but need some breaking in near the top of my foot. I find that my heel slips out more than what I’m used to but apparently that is inherent in this shoe. My shoe size is 6- 61/2 i ordered 61/2-7 based on the reviews that they run a tad small, I received them and they were about 1/2-3/4 size too big. I exchanged them for a 51/2-6 and that is much better. Overall a good shoe just needs breaking in. Zappos made it soooo easy for the exchange, I will continue to purchase through Zappos just on customer service alone.

-I really like the cushioned sole. -I like the lighter weight design. -I wish they made my size (35) in wide, I might need to get them stretched. -I don't like how the brown color is already scuffing off after 7 days of wear. I have another pair of Dansko's that is the oiled leather finish. Going fwd, I would only get that, it wears much better.

The sizing was true (I normally wear a 38, and the 38 fit perfectly). I like the look and the leather very much, and the fact that it has a non-slip sole was a plus. Very comfortable footbed and the shoe was relatively light for having so much construction to it (i.e., it's certainly not a flimsy shoe). Nevertheless, I gave it a three on comfort because of the reason that I'm returning it: the tongue (?I guess? I mean the very top part of the upper where it hits the middle of your foot...where the tongue would be in a running shoe) is too tight. Just walking around my house a little bit, I could tell that it would quickly become painful, and I don't see how that part could stretch/break in enough to ever be comfortable. Still giving it four stars because if it happens to fit your foot differently, this would be a great shoe. So...the search for a new pair of clogs continues...

The finish on my black patent Sanitas was flaking off, so I ordered black patent in the Dansko XP and the XP 2.0. There is a distinct difference in the two pair - the XP 2.0 were much "snugger" than the XP - I am keeping the XP pair and returning the XP 2.0 pair. I have worn Danskos for many years (15+) and have become used to the "loose" fit - love it, in fact and, as it happens, so does my foot doctor. He was wearing Danskos when he told me that if your shoes are snug enough to leave impressions on your feet (like sock seams), then your feet are too crowded and your shoes don't fit well. I love the XPs, and I highly recommend them.

Love the warm chocolate brown color of these danskos. The XP 2.0 are more cushioned than my regular danskos - I found these had less of a "break-in" period. Love them!

I absolutely love this clog! I have flat feet, a bad ankle, planter fasciitis, a hammer toe and some arthritis in both big toes. As a result have a very hard time finding shoes that both fit and are comfortable. These clogs fit and were comfortable right out of the box!! Comfortable with socks and without. The only problem I had is they squeak horribly when I don’t have socks on, so wonder if they are slightly too big. Very disappointing but I will return and try a different pair hoping these won’t squeak, if they do without socks like these but are comfortable.... I will be keeping and just wear socks or shoe liners with them.

I wore Dansko's in the past and loved the support but had concerns about the stability (I twisted my ankle a few times with the hard, high sole). I tried this XP2.0 version with the hope it would work. The support was great but the shoe was just too tight for my high instep. Sadly I had to return.

Great but run smaller and especially narrower than older model Danskos.

I love this shoe! I ordered the professional in a 38 and it was too tight. The professional 39 was too big. I ordered this shoe because I liked the print and I am so happy! I stand all day and my feet feel great! Great shoe!

I've worn Danskos for years. Not sure what's up with them anymore, but they're definitely not the same shoe that they used to be. Not sure where to go from here, but definitely disappointed. They're going back. They're narrow and not comfortable from the get go.

I am so thrilled that Dansko made this new version of their clog! It has a cushioned insole instead of the hard insole. I had foot surgery and can't tolerate the hard insole like I use to. I ordered the same size that I wear in the professional style, but wide width because my bad foot swells up as the day goes on. I'm an RN, and I'm on my feet about 50% of my work day. They fit really well and are very comfortable. They look very similar to the professional style. My feet hurt a little bit at the end of the day, but that's my problem due to the bad foot issue. I'm ready to order a second pair, but the ones I want are out of stock.
