Dansko Women's Shayla Slip-On Fashion Sneakers - Comfortable Walking Shoes for Women | Casual & Work Wear | Perfect for Walking, Travel, Office & Everyday Use | Ideal for Commuting, Errands & Light Exercise

Having read all the mixed reviews of Shayla, especially about the sizing, I decided to try them out anyway. I am a size 7 medium width with low arches. I took the little sizing quiz first, and was a little worried that the size suggested for me might be too large (a 38 Euro, 7.5-8 US). However, they turned out to be quite comfortable, the foot bed and arches were in the right place for my feet, I had room in the toes (to spare!), and they were not rubbing anywhere. They do not "feel" too large -- I am not banging into anything! I like that I can also wear thick sports socks with them without feeling squished. I have worn them all day long for two days, and love them. I think someone else mentioned that the soles might be a little slippery on some floors (wet?) and I did slip a bit once, but now I will be aware of this. Dansko might want to improve on this aspect (why I gave the 4 stars). Otherwise they are very comfortable and I would buy another pair. I have ordered a pair for my elderly mother (she is a 10 medium and the sizing quiz says she is a 42 Euro -- we shall see if these fit since they haven't arrived yet). I think this shoe will be good for her as they are very sturdy and will help her to balance.Edited on 5-22-16: I still love these shoes. And my 90 year old mom loves hers. The 42 Euro worked. She says that these are the most comfortable shoes she's ever worn. No pressure on her problematic big toes. And she is much steadier on her feet with these, a plus.
