History of Dutch clogs -

Here and there people still wear wooden shoes, the most in Holland.

Especially because of the swampy ground of Holland, and also because there was a lot of good wood (willows and poplars) in Holland.

The wooden shoe kept on being popular for a long time everywhere in Holland.

Even when the watertight boots of rubber were designed, people kept the wooden shoe, because it was so easy to use.

Of the 3 million wooden shoes which are made yearly, a big part of them are destined for tourist seats.

In lots of large souvenir shops the wooden shoe is a striking element.

And at some places there is a teaching workshop were wooden shoes are made by a real, old-fashioned artisan, like there were thousands of earlier.
