    Default Clogs as in Swedish clogs for men

    Bozo no no or am I just the guy who can pull it off? I like hard shoes in general with minimal padding and the junk Birki's were good feeling but total junk.
    Sven Clogs makes them in my exact size. I've sent tracings.

    Getting a wee tired of boat shoes and having great success with Birkenstock. Ready to up my game to something like this:

    Not bad. There are a lot of such clogs out if you go looking for them, and some are really cool. Of course you'd rock any clogs that passed by your feet. Seriously?

    Yeah, not a joke. Should have used a appropriate happy face emoji.

    Bragards look good, sadly only available in white for my size at this time.

    Ah, but white Bragards will go with his white belt.

    Bragards look really good and are worth the wait. Then, you can get some new clogs from Brunello Cucinelli that are taupe suede leather with rows of beads stitched on. Very haute style as long as you also buy the bolero vest to go with them.

    And I knew you were serious, Josh. My "Seriously" comment had to do with why you even had to ask. Just, ... don't pick your styles from old photos of Bill at work.

    It looks warm where that picture was taken. Odd that he would be wearing an Islandic sweater.

    Thanks. None in BigFoot sizes. I did look for custom but the Sven clogs are actually made in my size US15. They may be the only clogs in my size worth a darn. Birkis are junk, did I say that before?

    Gene Simmons totally rocked the white clogs a few years ago.

    I'd skip the engineer boot straps and o-ring and go for a simpler/plainer design. Also you'll need to watch your head a bit after getting them - 2" heels may put your noggin in the danger zone. I gave up on clogs in the 80's after nearly breaking my ankle 20 or 30 times. That hard sole hits a rock and there is no place to go but sideways.

    Is there a reason Dansko hasn't been mentioned, too pedestrian?

    Ok I thought it was funny.

    Why would a man who goes by the name TooTall want shoes that make him 2"+ taller? Having trouble seeing over your opponents in NBA games? High altitude training technique?

    My favorite around-the-house footwear are my Birkenstocks.

    You can screw cleats directly to the soles.

    Lane gets it.

    Dansko, again not LARGE enough. Think in terms like "we are going to need a bigger boat".

    I'm not worried about seeming Too Tall, I'm getting used to it.
