Nurse / Healthcare Shoes

COMFORT FROM OFFICE TO OR
Are the footbeds of your healthcare shoes falling flat? With nurses, doctors, surgeons, physician’s assistants, or anyone else roaming office and hospital floors in mind, for over 30 years Dansko has been providing comfortable and supportive work shoes for women and men in healthcare. We know there are days when you need to stay on your feet for 12 hours at a time, our goal is to make supportive shoes for healthcare workers with superior technology and contoured construction so you can always give your patients your best. We focus on arch support, stability, durable materials, and slip-resistant outsoles to enhance your marathon shift.

WHATEVER YOU CHOOSE, YOU’VE GOT OUR SUPPORT
No matter your foot type, style, or professional requirements, we have the perfect pair of healthcare shoes for you. If you wear wide or narrow sizes, or suffer from plantar fasciitis, heel pain, or bunions, we have many styles approved by the American Podiatric Medical Association to provide comfort to most types of feet. In order to be APMA-approved footwear, our shoes undergo rigorous independent testing to prove they are worthy of being podiatrist recommended to improve foot health. For the modern healthcare sneaker fan we created Dansko Natural Arch Plus™ technology which features added arch and heel support for prolonged periods of standing. These top-of-line supportive footbeds are contoured inserts that provide premium cushioning so your feet will feel supported no matter how long you are running around your hospital floor or standing by a patient’s bedside. For fans of the classic clog, we offer multiple models of supportive, versatile healthcare clogs that are great for surgeons standing long periods and dynamic enough for nurses making their way to codes. We are consistently adding new fun prints and patterns so you can show your personality but always carry standard black nursing shoes if your dress code requires them. We build shoes for doctors, nurses, surgeons, and medical technicians that come in wide and medium sizes for superior foot health with the features you need like slip resistance, water resistance, and strong, durable leathers. We focus on your foot health so you can focus on making the world a better place.
