text: Dansko changed their soles and the new ones SUCK -- definitely not as slip-resistant in restaurant work.  The fit is tighter too.  I had a previous pair that I have worn out and loved --- ordered same size, but they are different and again soles have changed and are not as good.  Because these are hand made, I would NOT recommend buying online, but trying them on in person.<br /><br />The packaging and delivery time were on point!
