High
heeled shoes have become a staple fashion for women in the contemporary world. Not only they enhance the beauty of the feet, but they also make women look elegant. The versatility of high heeled shoes is that they gel well with every outfit a woman wears and thus have dominated the shoe genre ever since the ’70s.
With
the course of time, they have evolved and become a prized possession in a woman’s closet. High-heeled clogs have carved a niche with women of late and are a common sight in fashion parades.
A bit of History
But
high-heeled shoes weren’t only popular among women. If you turn the pages of history, you will discover that those platformer shoes were worn by men as well. According to the Egyptian murals, high heeled shoes were worn by both men and women alike. There was no gender discrimination in the choice of wearing high heeled shoes.
Heels
were made of wood and were worn only on special occasions. In the 17th
and the 18th century, heeled shoes became a symbol of aristocracy.
Though
early heeled shoes bore straps at the back, with time the straps fused with the rest of the material. Men heeled shoes remained plain and simple while women's shoes came with ornate designs. The heels became a
raging fashion until the twentieth century, undergoing many changes in structure and looks.
In
In the late 20th century, clogs were born which carried the high heel legacy with it. From footwear for the lower class, high heeled clogs have become a fashion accessory now.
Clogs have Come of Age
Clogs
which were made of wood in the traditional times, feature leather and rubber material on the upper portions in recent times. They come in a
bunch of chic colors and are available in the strap or strapless options.
The heels come in varying heights and contours and are mostly handmade,
especially the Swedish high-heeled clogs. Many shoe companies custom make the clogs, applying various production methods and designs.
There are Men Clogs as Well
The
stake is high on the clogs. Women simply love clogs because it’s easy to wear and add oodles of glamour to their personality. And the most
versatile thing about clogs is they can be worn in any season. Many don’t know however that there are clogs for men too.
Yes,
you heard that right! Men clogs are made of durable black or brown leather and have short heels. Heeled clogs are also used by men and women in hospitals to protect them from germs.
High
heeled clogs have been on the fashion radar for quite a time now and
chances are bleak that they will go out of fashion. Their exclusiveness
in terms of style, comfort, aesthetics, and durability can be a hard
the thing to ignore.
