All About Clog Sandals and Other Footwear That are loved by Both Women & Men

The battle of the sexes for equality is a continuous one. There are places and cases where men take the lead and there are the other situations where women are given preference. Stereotypical notions still exist, but there are a few fields where the gender bias is gradually blurring - one such field is the fashion industry.

The fashion industry has a major influence on the masses all around the world. It provides equal opportunities to men and women, be it in terms of livelihood or styling options. Men in Scotland have been wearing kilts for a long time now, and women have now started to wear pantsuits and brogues. Clog sandals are a favorite among both the genders and are no longer limited to a specific section of society.



Footwear and clothing fashion both have experienced similar changes over a period of time as clothes, shoes and accessories are defying boundaries and finding a place for themselves in the wardrobes of both men and women.
Below, we have listed a few options in footwear that are making it big among both the sexes.

Clog Sandals:

The heeled clog sandals have a history of being worn by the humble workers of the 16th century for their comfort and durability. Surprisingly, they were worn by both the sexes then, and today too, clog sandals are a fashion statement for women and men.

Brogues:

Unlike clog sandals, these were worn only by men for outdoor activities like hunting, shooting and fishing owing to their sturdiness. With time and changes in perception for fashion, women too have started wearing brogues for their classy yet edgy looks.

Oxfords:


Oxfords evolved from boots with side slits. These boots were shortened and jazzed up with laces to make them look more suave and formal. At first, they were part of men’s common formal dress code, but now, oxfords are worn by women as well, both formally and casually.
