It’s easy to categorise clogs in the ‘ugly shoe’ trend and dismiss them as a passing fad, but we think there’s so much more to them. Aside from their surprising comfort and practicality, they add instant cool to any outfit; not only will they go with most of your summer wardrobe, you’ll instantly gain fashion points every time you wear them. And they’re not really a trend at all – in our view, anything that evokes 1970s styling is a safe buy with real longevity.
