Founded in 1990 by Mandy Cabot and Peter Kjellerup, Dansko crafts comfort-centric footwear—cushioned clogs, sandals, boots, and sneakers—with anatomically contoured footbeds, rocker-bottom soles, and supportive heels. Favored by healthcare workers and chefs, their shoes are APMA-accepted and backed by an employee-owned ethos tied to workplace values.
