Description
Whatever you may think of them, traditional Dutch wooden shoes or clogs (klompen), are an important part of Dutch heritage and are still worn in rural parts of the country today. Dutch language has many idiomatic expressions associated with wooden shoes. Clogs are still popular with people working in agriculture as they're great for walking on muddy ground and can easily be removed. Dutch clogs are made from different types of wood - poplar and willow being favourites - and are often painted.
This old production tool is shown at the open air museum in Zaanse Schans, Holland
