New on the scene this spring is Pippa, a bold, new twist on Dansko's iconic clog. Inspired by the high fashion molded footwear trend, Pippa is fun, stylish, and available in six vibrant colors (teal, yellow, orange, blue, black and magenta).  Its revolutionary design features a molded foot bed for outstanding support, tread for secure footing, and a polyurethane insert to provide shock absorption, flexibility and energy return.  Made from lightweight, long-wear elastomers, this style delivers superior support and comfort, making it the perfect "go-everywhere" shoe for spring.

Dansko's 2012 Spring Collection also includes the following, must-have shoes for the season:

MIRABEL

Mirabel is the newest heel collection from the seven-time winner of the Footwear Plus Award for Design Excellence in Women's Comfort.   It balances Dansko's signature all-day comfort and superior arch support with a sculpted, cutout heel and graceful architecture.  Mirabel is available in four designs from strapped to closed toe, and the uppers feature handcrafted detailing and gorgeous soft leathers in eye-catching shades and ever-popular neutrals.

SRP: $130

JUTE PROFESSIONAL

Dansko lightens up with serious comfort by introducing its Jute Professional (otherwise known as Jute Pro).   A spin on Dansko's Professional line, Jute Pro provides a lighter option for warmer weather while embodying classic Dansko styling and all-day comfort.  This lightweight and durable espadrille-inspired clog features a fresh look; an on-trend jute-wrapped outsole made of natural vegetable fiber, light and airy canvas uppers, an anti-fatigue rocker bottom, fun stripes, colorful embroidery, and other seasonal twists for spring.
