When it comes to clogs, there seems to be a visceral reaction to the clunky wood shoe: Most people either love them or hate them—with a passion. Yet this summer, the so-called "ugly” shoes have been clomping their way into the hearts of even the most clog-adverse fashion girls, thanks in large part to their major presence on the S/S 2020 runways.
Seen at some of the biggest designer shows—from Marni to Miu Miu—clogs leaned into the free-spirited '70s vibes omnipresent on the runways. A glamorous contrast to its humble origins as protective wear used in agriculture, factories, and mines.
