Dansko EU/US sizing discrepancy?

I know dansko sizes are in European sizing (EU) but that's where my problem lies:for some reason, its always tricky for me to pinoint what my EU size is. According to most conversion charts, a US womens shoe size 10, which is my size, is supposed to be equivalent to EU 40. However, in the past when I've purchased shoes in EU sizes, 80% of the time, dependent on the style or brand, the size 40 is too small and I have to get a 41. I've never owned a pair of danskos, but from the reviews I've read, It seem that dansko clogs run a half to full size small. Is that pretty accurate?

If it is, I'm thinking that a EU 40 is totally out the question for me ans that I should aim to buy a 41 or even a 42. I know the most ideal way to find my proper size in this brand is to find a store to try on the dansko clogs since I've never owned a pair, but as of now, Im planning on chancing it and buying Dansko clogs online following the input of the allnurses community of course lol.

so my question for all you faithful dansko wearer is should I get the 41 or 42?

    I wear a 7.5-8 normally and I wear a 39 in Danskos allowing for the pinky's width of heel room for a proper fit! They seem pretty true to size for me :)

    You really should find a store and try them. I'm a 10 normally too and a 42 fits best for me.

    I wear 10s as well and I have bought 2 pairs of 41s. They fit perfectly with just the right amount of wiggle room.

    I wear a US size 6.5 and my Dansko's are usually 37's -- but I have worn a 36 occasionally, depending on the specific style. I think you should try them on -- or be prepared to exchange them if needed.

    I can't speak specifically for Dansko's (yet), but having lived in Europe I can tell you that I am an 8 - 8.5 and consistently wear a 39/40 in Euro sizing so the fact that you found 40's too small isn't surprising. I would go with a 42.
