So Just What are Clogs anyway?

Did you know that Clogs are traditionally heavy shoes or sandals made predominantly out of wood? However, modern clogs are a more hip type of footwear that is usually made with leather sides and uppers, although some still retain wooden soles. Dansko clogs are both popular and modern shoes which are very carefully thought out. They often have rocker-bottom soles and heels which are slightly raised so as to ease strain on leg and back muscle. How’s that? Style, comfort, and good for your feet! Footwear just doesn’t get any better than that!

Without going into the history of the Dansko Shoe Company I will just start by adding that the beautiful Dansko shoes began as the brainchild of two Danish (not Dutch), horse trainers, Mandy Cabot and Peter Kjellerup. If you're interested in the background, there will surely be lots of info online about this young company.

It’s strange that styles that were once considered fuddy-duddy, suddenly spring into fashion, and that’s exactly what’s happened with the clog style of footwear. Dansko Shoes have become all the rage recently and are regarded as really hip footwear among legions of people who can’t get enough of these unlikely looking shoes.



Among them are people who will wear no other brand on their feet. Won over by the comfort and unique style of Dansko shoes, there are those folks who own dozens of pairs and are all too happy to snap up new styles as they come along so as not to miss out on what has become a phenomenon in modern footwear.

Although Dansko offers a great looking range of footwear, there’s a fair more to the Dansko shoe than first meets the eye, as this innovative footwear can also be found in trendy summer sandals or fashionable winter boots. The moment you slip your foot into a Dansko, it's as if the shoe is a natural extension to the foot. But don't be fooled by the mere design and comfort of the shoe as Dansko DNA is more than a feeling. There is in actual fact a fair bit of science in their products.

Dansko shoes have what is called anatomically contoured footbeds which support the foot from heel to toe. They have roomy toe boxes which follow the shape of your foot and allow the toes to move comfortably as you walk. Dansko offer a variety of upper styles to accommodate almost every type of foot which is great news for the hard to please. Some of these styles may use different materials, but they all add up to the same results which are shoes that feel good many hours after you put them on.

You will not find any kinds of metallics, rhinestones or stiletto heels on the Dansko choice of shoes, but that's okay as it's their own unique designs that make them stylish in their own right. If you're in the mood for a change in your regular type of shoes and fancy giving your feet a real treat, then you might want to check out the Dansko range or hip footwear.

Hip Footwear Says: Dansko Shoes – Not just for Continental Clog Hoppers!

Many years ago during the 1970’s, we school kids used to have classes on the Dutch people and their traditional way of life. We also learnt about their traditional footwear, the clog, which caused us to break out in fits of childish giggles. Well, that was then and this is now. Today the clog, albeit the Danish style, is a serious fashion statement and is not laughed at but admired by the shoe trendsetters of the twenty first century. Dansko shoes are hip, they're comfortable, and very much sought after by all age groups. It's funny where fashion ideas come from sometimes.

But when the first dedicated followers of fashion began wearing Dansko clogs, they invited almost as much laughter and giggles as did the Crocks range of footwear, but Dansko shoes, just like Crocs, soon caught on and become a fashion phenomenon in modern footwear designs.
