Recently, I had a talk with my friends about the type of shoes they prefer the most for everyday wear. We reached a common denominator, which doesn’t happen very often. All of us love to wear clogs. Is this true for you, too?

I bet the majority of us have at least one pair of comfort clogs to put on and rush to classes, work, the movies, or any other place where we’re going to spend a rather long time. We love them as they’re very comfortable and come in different styles. But does each of us know that they’re very healthy as well? Their popularity persuaded me to do some research and I’ve learned quite some interesting stuff about them.

First of all casual clogs come in a variety of types, such as wooden, rubber, leather, suede and canvas. Their soles are designed in a way to conform to the foot shape. As to the back, it’s mostly open which prevents our feet from unpleasant sweating. The clog’s shape and construction eliminate further pressure on the back. Moreover, wooden ones are more hygienic and they help reduce the risk of fungus. This is the main reason why they’re commonly worn by staff in hospitals.

Women’s clogs come in variety of styles, such as casual, sports, elegant, and so on. This widens  the selection for clog-lovers. If you’re interested in sporty clogs check out Romika ‘Milla 20′ Clog. If you want casual summer clogs try Birki’s Maria Soft Footbed. Those of you interested in elegant styles should try on the Josef Seibel ‘Jennifer’ Clog. All of the above mentioned clogs are in this year’s spring-summer collection, so you’ll also be trendy wearing them.
