If you’re a member of the American Federation of Teachers, you get 20% off Dansko plus free shipping. AFT members get a one-time use code up to 4 times a year, through AFT’s members-only benefits site. If you’re a teacher who isn’t in the AFT, Dansko doesn’t have a teacher discount of its own, and ID.me says it isn’t aware of one. You can still get cash back: TopCashback lists 10% back at Dansko.
Dansko makes clogs and comfort shoes, and a lot of teachers wear them for days spent on their feet. The company started from a Danish clog its founder found comfortable after hours of barn chores, and Dansko says it designs each new style around the same contoured footbed and rocker bottom. Dansko is women-founded, women-led and employee-owned, and its shoes carry the American Podiatric Medical Association’s Seal of Acceptance. You can find more brands like it in our clothing and accessories discounts for teachers.
How To Get The Dansko Teacher Discount
- Log in to AFT’s members-only benefits site, or register if you haven’t set up an account yet.
- Click the Dansko discount on the members-only page.
- Enter your email address and submit it. Your code comes by email, and signing up also subscribes you to Dansko’s emails.
- Use the code on dansko.com and check the total at checkout before you pay.
Each code is single-use and only works for you. AFT’s instruction sheet says a code is good for 90 days, and a new one arrives by email after that, which is how you get up to four a year. If a clog is going to be your everyday school shoe, that’s enough for a pair at the start of the year and a replacement later on.
If You’re Not An AFT Member
The 20% is an AFT member benefit, not a Dansko teacher program, so a teacher in a different union or no union doesn’t get it. What you can get is cash back. TopCashback lists 10% back at Dansko, and Rakuten lists 2%. Start your order from one of them and the cash back lands in that account after the purchase goes through. Rates change, so check the page before you buy.
