Description

  • Video Description View the Video Description for this product! (Please note that the color shown in the video may no longer be available.)
  • You may be more comfortable sizing downward for open-back models (for example, if you are a US size 6.5, you may want to choose EU size 36).
  • Dansko's most traditional open-back style that takes on the critical roll of providing comfort to those in the nursing, hospitality and other occupational fields.
  • Your heel should be either even with or slightly forward of the back of the clog and your toes should not hit the front of the clog.
  • High quality leather upper follows the natural contours of the foot.
  • Oiled Leather is a heavily oiled, matte-finish leather with optimal pliability and moisture resistance. Oiled Nubuck has the same closely napped, silky feel as Nubuck, but with noticeably more oil tanned into the leather. Naturally occurring blemishes are slightly more visible in these tannages and suggest a more rugged appearance. Latigo leather has a smooth, tight grain and semi-gloss to transparent finish.
  • Instep collar is generously padded.
  • Roomy Thermoplastic toe box provides durable reinforcement and toe protection while allowing toes to move comfortably.
  • Vegetable tanned leather lining allows the shoe to mold to the natural shape of the foot.
  • Antimicrobial Poliyou® foam in the footbed absorbs and evaporates perspiration for a healthy foot environment.
  • Protective Polyethylene heel counter allows the heel to move up and down when walking. Also provides lateral stability and acts as a natural shoe horn.
  • PVC inner frame provides stability and reduces torque and pronation.
  • Polyurethane outsole provides shock absorption and flexibility, withstands surfaces of extreme heat and cold, and protects feet, legs and back during long hours of standing or walking.
  • Rocker bottom propels the foot forward when walking.
  • Dansko Stapled clog outsoles are designed to be suitably slip resistant in workplace environments where excesses of vegetable oils and animal fats are present. Slip resistant tests have been carried out by SATRA, the world's leading research and technology organization for the footwear industry.
  • Dansko's Stapled Clog Collection proudly carries the Seal of Acceptance from the American Podiatric Medical Association.

I love Dansko clogs! I have a very wide foot and high in-step and struggle to find shoes that fit. These do! I have 3 pairs and wear them almost exclusively, with or without socks. They don't pinch or give me blisters. I can wear them all day and my feet don't ache. I normally wear a size 8 and the size 39 fits perfectly.

I love these shoes except for the fact that they both squeak on hard floor surfaces. So despite their good looks and fit I have had to shelve them.

Great shoes. They took a little breaking in, but they look great and my feet feel great at the end of the day. I would like to see more colors and patterns.

I love these shoes! I have resisted buying them for years because I thought they were uncomfortable and hard. No way, by far the best shoes, I work in the OR and am on my feet all day. These are the shoes you want!

I love this Dansko Sonja, this is my first time trying this shoe. I had to return my first pair; they ran very small with light pair of socks. My heel went over back. I always wear a 7 1/2- 8. I exchanged this for the 8 1/2- 9 even though I have never worn bigger than a 8. I wear them with thick socks. I put them on today and never took them off all day. No break-in and love the antique brown. Excellent clog and I'm only 5' 3" so they give me some height. Plan on getting the Black also soon. Love them!

These clogs are everything I hoped they would be: quality leather, substantial outersole, comfortable. Because I broke my leg several years ago, I have to be careful that the shoes I wear provide sufficient support. I can wear these for hours without foot or leg discomfort. I look forward to wearing these throughout the fall and winter. They are durable enough to withstand rain and snow. I ordered 1/2 size larger.
