Dansko Professional Clogs Buying Guide

Dansko is the inspiration of a husband team, Mandy Cabot and Peter Kjellerup. The two discovered the ideal barn shoe in a a tiny shop in Denmark. When they found it, they knew they had to share it with friends and so the shoe company was born. Since that time, the company has grown into a huge shoe manufacturer that sells more than just the original clogs. The company also sells wedges, flats, boots and heels. Every pair of shoes is carefully designed and constructed with the Dansko DNA-materials in a design that promotes good leg, foot and back health.

Even though the company has only been around since 1990, it has really made an impression on the footwear market. In 1992 the American Podiatric Medical Association awarded its first Seal of Acceptance to the Stapled Collection. Then, in 1999 the company got another big boost when Julia Roberts was spotted wearing a pair of Black Oiled Professionals. Since that time, the brand has become immensely popular with other celebrities including Heidi Klum, Antonio Banderas, Meg Ryan, Julia Styles, Tina Fey and more. However, the affordable cost of the shoes means you don't have to be a celebrity to enjoy a pair of lovely Dansko Professional Shoes.

The Professional Clogs from Dansko are the original shoes from the company that are still hugely popular today. The clog is beautiful, simple and incredibly comfortable to wear. It also comes in a huge range of finishes including box leather, oiled leather, patent leather, cabrio leather, pull-up leather and more. There is even a sequins leather for those who like to have a bit of glitz in their shoe wear. Besides having a really classic-looking shoe, you also get some really impressive features that promote good foot, leg and back health. Some of these features include:

Great shock absorption comparable to other athletic footwear
Plenty of toe room
Firm foot and arch support with a contoured midsole
anti-fatigue rocker bottom
Anti-microbial leather sock lining in leather clogs

The wonderful thing about the Professional Shoes is that they can be worn just about anywhere. They were originally designed for use around the stable when not wearing tall boots, but the comfort and style makes them ideal for any type of occasion. This means you can wear them out with a pair of jeans, to the office or even at home doing yard work. The shoes effortlessly combine ultimate comfort with beautiful style for a truly fantastic all-around shoe.
