Doctors and nurses rely on them for their long shifts, as do chefs and other professionals who stand all day. The perfect work and (for the rest of us) pandemic shoe, wooden clogs are like a slipper — comfortable and easy to get into —with soles sturdy enough to wear for hours (inside or outside). Winter is coming, and it’s time to consider adding a pair of clog boots to your wardrobe.
Clog boot, just like its well-known relative classic clog, refers to any type of
boot with a wooden bottom. Although clogs have been among us for centuries,
they are not humble work shoes anymore, but also a fashion statement and a
choice of many. From famous people to hippies, artists, professional chefs,
there are many clog enthusiasts worldwide. Swedish clog boots are comfortable
and all-natural shoes that can adapt to any climate and occasion. They may not
be cheap, but they are handmade, comfortable, healthy for your feet, and do
last a long time.
Clog
boots for women
A
century ago, Swedish cobblers began to make wooden clogs as practical,
protective working shoes. After generations of experimenting and improving
materials and techniques, they came out with a type of shoe known as a Swedish
clog. Swedish boots (and particularly clog boots for women) come in a range of
unexpected colors- silver, pink, grape, copper, as well as in various prints
and leathers. They come in numerous styles such as shearling clogs boots,
wedges, high heel clog boots, hiking boots, etc.
When
we talk about style, the best known are probably classic Chelsea boots, but
there are plenty of variations with laces, metallic details, zipper,
embroidery, or lined with wool and shearling. If you are looking for shoes that
will keep you warm through the cold days, the recommendation is always warm
shearling wooden clog boots.
Clog
boots for men
Men’s
clog boots may not be new on the market, however, they are still confusing for
most men. But for those gentlemen brave enough to give them a chance, Swedish
wooden clog boots have many benefits. They are comfortable, easy on and off,
and materials and detail are almost endless (patent, waxy, vegan, nubuck,
pull-up, vegetable-tanned, suede, etc.).
Swedish
clog boots are (in most cases) handmade, eco-friendly, and natural footwear.
They are still made in small family-owned workshops with custom-made options
that give them a bit of that special romantic touch. A distinctive wooden sole
is made with natural wood, in most cases alder wood, lime, or brisk, with an
anatomically shaped footbed that is healthy for the body posture. The wooden
bottom softens the impact of walking on hard surfaces and keeps your back
in a good posture. Also, most clog boots have a Grip-tech PU layer on bottoms,
a material developed for increased slip resistance. Combined with a leather
upper, you get warm, waterproof, and comfortable, distinctive boots with
interesting details such as laces, metallic buckles, stitches, or horsbit.
