| Jun 2, 2020 at 10:59 | comment | added | Graham | Regarding wooden clogs, there's one point which is often missed about them. There's a reason manual workers today are required to wear safety shoes - one slip of a hammer or axe, one dropped load, or in the case of that picture one hoof in the wrong place - and you lose your foot. Go back to even the mid-20th century, and the chances were good you'd be looking at amputation. Go back to the mid-19th century or earlier, and the chances were good you'd be looking at sepsis and death. Carving your safety shoes from wood was a good practical solution. | |

| Jun 1, 2020 at 14:27 | comment | added | StephenG - Help Ukraine | you can engage in tough manual labor wearing clogs This isn't really a choice in such a society - you either wear what's available or go without, but either way the work has to be done. What, by the way, are the paintings ? | |
