Let's pretend this topic isn't called "style" or indeed "beauty" and could you please help me find some ugly brown clogs

I have a picture in my mind of exactly what i want.

I want something really lentilly and crunchy looking. Fantastically practical and comfy. Footbed, slip on clogs. Soft brown leather. Very wide. Possibly with a raised stitched seam.

I would say vegan / fair trade sort of websites except i think leather would be good. Happy to have mushroom leather or something similar.

Any ideas?

Thank you both for replying :)

I think maybe i was not ecactly meaning a clog. Not a wooden soled one. I really want a footbed with one large piece of clog-like leather over the front...

Nothing more lentilly than a pair of birkenstock clogs!

www.amazon.co.uk/Birkenstock-60136-Boston-Unisex-Adults-Clogs/dp/B00IKG27IY?th=1&psc=1&tag=mumsnetforum-21

Really quite expensive though, so shop around to find them cheaper

saladsmoothie · 07/05/2017 03:03

Artemis the birkies are perfect!! Why didn't i think of them?? But you're right, the price is painful.

LadyC i find those fitflops... intriguing. They don't look good for wet weather. And the colour is vile... and yet i am drawn to them.

^^ That's a pitchfork.

Coming in here with chat of comfy lentily clogs. There are some standards you know!

Raised stitch seam indeed.

squoosh · 07/05/2017 03:11

(despite my outrage I wish you well in your clog quest)

BikeRunSki · 07/05/2017 03:19

really fugly

BikeRunSki · 07/05/2017 03:21

saladsmoothie · 07/05/2017 04:13

Now We're talking!!

Ooh those first fugly ones are so good they look so comfy!!!

Squoosh, I'll probably wear them with stripy mum-socks and jeans. Bwahahaaaaa.

OP, are you that determined never to have sex again? There are easier ways, you know.

(Kidding, kidding Wink)

Oooooh! I have seen loads of these sort of things.

Oxygen shoes do a Birkenstock version but much cheaper. Other makers of the asaid little numbers are El naturalista, Josef Seibel, Loints of Holland, and Pozu.

Also Halflinger and loads on here here

I have the fitflop shuv and they are on right side of fugly unlike something of that ilk from Flyflot. Flyflot is a step too far.

Haflinger....

Also with some fine offerings -Dr Brinkmann and if your tastes extend more nana then Rohde I draw the line

I, for one, am glad you've posted, as I have an ancient pair of clogs that are worn out and I want to get some more just like them. I am not known for my fashion sense (ya think) and they're incredibly comfortable. I've just checked and my old ones are Josef Seibel. I will just have a look for their current ones.

The only issue with them is making sure you're not wearing nerdy socks or ones with holey heels.

BiscuitMillionaire · 07/05/2017 10:49

Like these but my old ones don't have the buckle.
