I could not. It slowed me down overall which i found unbearable. I bought mine after a lot of research and choose Sanita over Dansko, but never really took to them. They were really heavy, was much slower and my feet ached after a 8 hours. I loved the extra inches, but for me they were a def no-go over something like crocs. Other people really love these so maybe I’m just a one off.

I’m naturally a really fast walker and i work in a unit that can get really fast paced. Definitely sounds like this wouldn’t work for me. Thanks!

FWIW, most people get used to them pretty fast. Not everybody, but the vast majority.

I think it’s individual. All my healthcare miles have been Dansko miles save for a few one-off days when I’ve tried sneakers, crocs, and other clogs. I can and have run in my clogs. They’re only hard to walk in on uneven surfaces, and you don’t get those in the hospital. I getting to the nursing age where a lot of my colleagues are complaining of sore feet, bunions, aching backs. Sure I’ve been tired and worn out after a shift, but I’ve never had sore feet or back problems. I like to think it’s my Danskos.

That’s a good point. It would be nice to preserve my feet and back!

Yeah, you probably don’t want to run in these but I’ve been able to stand comfortably in them for hours

Yeah I always recommend Sanita if you stand all day, and Hoka if you walk all day. Too much walking in clogs almost always leads to sore insteps, at the very least.
