Dansko footwear originally arrived here from Denmark in the 1980’s. Husband and wife Peter Kjellerup and Mandy Cabot fell in love with the one-of-a-kind closed back clog while in Denmark and started bringing them back for their friends and family. They quickly began selling them here in this country. In 1991, they purchased the exclusive rights to these shoes and began their business, Dansko, Inc. in 1991. Dansko clogs are now available for sale in over 3,500 retailers, around the globe.

What makes Dansko clogs unique? In the beginning, Dansko clogs were quite heavy and made primarily wood. However, there are now many different styles of Dansko shoes, but many styles still have a wooden sole. What has made Dansko clogs so successful is their amazing comfort. As a testament to this comfort, quite a number of Dansko styles are approved by the American Podiatric Medical Association. They feature a rocker bottom sole in combination with a raised heel, which helps to take the strain off your back and legs. When you combine this comfort with style, you have a wonderfully perfect shoe. The women’s line of Dansko, currently features shoes, heels and sandals, to complement their staple clogs — available in over twenty unique fashionable styles. The men’s line boasts shoes and boots in addition to clogs.
