In Holland few people wear clogs, mostly farmers, market-gardeners and people who work in nurseries. This is because clogs are regarded as a kind of safety shoe as indeed they are. Dutch clogs have been officially marked as safety shoes, after being tested and awarded the CE mark. Wooden shoes have been worn through out Europe since the late dark ages, the Dutch used to wear them, mainly because of the swampy ground and the abundance of good wood. Clogs are made of wood such as willow and poplar and are referred to by the Dutch as 'klompen'.
