It can be difficult to look your best when your feet are achy, blistered or just plain tired from shoes that rub and do not fit. Dansko shoes are based on the basic principles of clog shoes. The roomy toe box does not force the toes together resulting in corns and calluses. The walking motion on the rocker is less stressful and is great support for the arch of the foot. Dansko shoes have the seal of acceptance from the American Podiatric Medical Association.

The Professional is the flagship or perhaps that should be the flag shoe of Dansko. The high quality leather upper is oiled for durability with a heel that's 1 3/4" heel high. The collar around the instep is well padded for comfort. The toe box is reinforced with thermoplastic for increased durability and added protection of the toes. The inside lining is antimicrobial to absorb perspiration and increase evaporation. The inner frame made of polypropylene stabilizes the shoe, decreases inward turning or outward turning of the foot and helps eliminate torque.

The heel counter releases the heel to move both down and up when walking as well as increasing lateral stability. And finally the outsole made of polyurethane absorbs shocks, withstands extremes in cold and heat, aids in moving the foot forward and makes it easier to stand for a longer time.

Of course all this comfort does not mean the shoes have to be unattractive. Dansko shoes are stylish, whether for men or women.

Professional Women's Clogs come in a variety of colors and leather treatments. The pull up leather is available in crimson, brown and indigo. Patent leather clogs are offered in black, claret, navy, and brown. Prints come in petrol, an iridescent look, tiger's eye and leopard and tapestry.

Mary Janes keep all the positive attributes of the professional clog and add a dash of style as well as a Mary Jane strap across the instep. The look is a bit dressier than the clog and works well with pants as well as skirts. They come in a variety of colors such as russet brown, black, stone, tobacco, and pomegranate. The pomegranate would look especially fun paired with a skirt that picks up the cheery red color in a print, complimented with a red scarf to draw the color upwards.

The Adele is a fun sandal that combines the comfort of the classic clog with a wide strap over the instep and around the heel for stability. Colors include cornsilk, coral, black and brown. One of each color and your summer shoe wardrobe is almost complete.

Almost because Surraya is a must have sandal. The snappy straps cross the instep and hug the heel with an adjustable buckle. Pair the red crinkle leather with white shorts and a striped navy top for a nod to the nautical. The black crinkle leather goes well with animal prints in black and white or offset pure neon colors. Toffee is a go to color for rustic prints.

If thongs are your choice for sandal wear there are several choices. Carmen comes in five colors: stone, toffee, lilac, nubuck, white, black and brown. This thong sandal has leather straps between the big and second toe and a second strap across the instep for added stability. A summer flower in embossed leather perches on the side of the instep strap. These are perfect beach sandals or for going to the pool.

Most Dansko shoes do not have a heel higher than the professional clog with the exception of the Tara whose heel is 2 3/4 inches. This higher heel makes it appropriate for more formal work environments as well as for an evening out. The Tara comes in brown suede and black nappa leather.

Boots, boots and more boots. Choose from Tyra with a 2 3/4 inch heel. It is two toned leather with suede in the front and polished leather around the calf. It reaches to the knee and comes in black and brown. The Scout is an ankle length boot perfect for under jeans and pants. Colors include black, brown and brown. The classic hunting boot is represented by Deliah. It reaches the knee, has a 1 inch heel and is available in black and chocolate. The leather cuff at the top sports medallions of coiled leather buttons the shaft of the boot is suede and the toe box and heel polished leather.

Men's styles include professional clogs, boots, slip-ons and dressier styles. Colors include black, brown, chocolate, white and cordova. Leathers include oiled, full grain, and cabrio.

Dansko proves that comfort doesn't have to be stuffy or limiting. There's a style that fits everyone's wardrobe from practical to fashionista at prices that are reasonable for leather shoes, sandals and boots.
