Hi all!! Today I'm partnering with Dansko to give one of my lucky readers a pair of Dansko clogs!! If you've spent anytime in the hospital, you know there are pretty much two camps of people in scrubs - those who wear them with sneakers, and those who wear them with Danskos (and then you'll have a random plastic surgeon who only wears cowboy boots, but we'll save that story for another day). For a while I belonged to the first camp - sneakers all day every day. Until during one of my vascular surgeries, while checking the suture on a bypass graft we got blood everywhere, including my mesh sneakers... and my sock, I'd later find out. Ewwww. And there are worse bodily fluids, like during bowel surgeries... mm hmm. It was time for clogs, and I've never looked back.
I'm wearing the XP clogs in Whiskey, a color that's no longer available, but this brown is almost exact!
Browse through their Stapled Clog collection or the XP collection (my personal favorite - memory foam footbed, slip-resistant bottoms, and lighter overall) and leave a comment below saying which pair you'd choose if you won! Tweet about this giveaway or share it on Facebook and leave an extra comment saying you did for more chances to win!

{As a side note, I love speaking from my own experiences which is why I use a hospital/surgery example, but I've heard these are widely used in the service industry, retail, etc. - pretty much anyone who's on their feet for ungodly chunks of time! And gentleman who read the blog, this is of course open to you too!} I'll randomly choose a winner next Wednesday!
this is the perfect giveaway! thanks laura :) i'll definitely be looking forward to using these next year on wards. i'd choose stargazer in the stapled clog collection because i was into astronomy as a kid!

ReplyDeleteLove your blog I'm a nurse and love danskos. I would be so happy to snag a pair of the espresso xp pro! Thanks
ReplyDeleteThe Professional Wine Full Grain Leather look like they'd be beautiful and comfy as I walk around the hospital all day. I'm a med student and as I spend more and more time in clinic/at the hospital I'm realizing that ballet flats don't offer enough support and I love the idea of easily washable shoes that can be worn with scrubs or with dress pants.
ReplyDeleteI would love to win a pair of the Professinal Oiled Full Grain Leather Espresso!

ReplyDeleteMy friend steered me toward your blog and your story is inspiring. I'm super on the fence in regards to clogs, but I think I'm crossing over to the dark side! BAHAHA! You make it seem possible to wear them and still be stylish. The ones that resonated with me were the WIDE PRO Full Grain Leather in Espresso. All the best of luck at Harvard!
ReplyDeleteStumbled across your blog today and it's awesome! I love my Danskos, and always recommend them to everyone! As a CNA and a nursing student, I wear my Danskos every time I step foot into the hospital. I love the Professional
ReplyDeleteStapled Clog Collection in Leopard Multi Patent Leather. I love a good Dansko that pops with my scrubs!
Shared on Facebook and Twitter! Would love to win!
ReplyDeleteCame across your blog last night during a study break and fell in love! Congrats on the baby! You and your family are super adorable! As a third year pre-med student and a research assistant at a hospital, I spend a lot of time on my feet and winning my first pair of Danskos would be amazing. I would choose the Pro XP espresso pull up leather if I won. Best of luck with everything!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to have anything from the Pro XP line. Constantly being on my feet for 12 hours in sneakers and compression stockings isn't cutting it for me!
ReplyDeleteI tweeted https://twitter.com/dcheeto/status/397050466388811777
ReplyDeleteThanks!
I wear sneakers with scrubs but with the recent incident of feeling urine in between my toes that leaked through my sneakers, I'm thinking that I need to invest in a pair of Dansko's. I would choose this pair-http://dansko.com/Womens/Footwear/Collections/XP/Professional%20XP/Whiskey%20Burnished%20Full%20Grain/

ReplyDeleteI would love anything in the dansko's xp pro line. I'm currently part of the gym shoe and scrubs crowd, but I can be persuaded to switch sides.
ReplyDeleteHi Laura! As a single mom in medical school, I cannot afford a pair of Dansko shoes.
