Problem with Dansko clogs...anyone else with same problem?

I just got new Dansko Professional closed back clogs. My NurseMates hurt my feet bad and broke down in less than 6 months. The clogs are very comfortable and fit great, however I keep turning my ankle. I'll just be walking regular (not running, etc) and my foot seems to turn inward like the sole at the front of the clog is high and my ankle falls inward. It really hurts, not to mention I look stupid when it happens. Does anyone else have this problem. Maybe I should just be very cautious and walk carefully until I get used to wearing them. This is the only problem I've had so far and they feel great. In fact, they feel so great that I tend to not notice I'm wearing them which makes being cautious hard...

LOL.....I had that SAME problem when I first started to wear them. They even started to hurt after I was on my feet for some time, this was in Nursing School only. I have been wearing them for over a year now and I love them. I have NO complaints with them and my ankle does not turn in anymore. You do have to get used to them though. I have them in 2 colors now and am planning on getting a pair in every color.

I absolutely love them! ?

Thank you so much. Now I don't feel like such a clutz. I guess I just have to be careful while I'm learning how to walk in them. They do feel great so far. My ankles hurt a bit...I've turned them 3 times this shift. Twice in front of other people. Ugh...a patient even said 'maybe you shouldn't have had that last drink'. Not good but sort of funny.

I have twisted my ankles multiple times in my Dansko's too...but they are the best shoes I have ever had.
