Dutch Clogs

Friday I received 2 very beautiful and special postcards. Here is one of them:

As you can see it shows the typical clogs, which have a mill draw on it. Really cool :) Also this postcard is a square instead of the regular rectangle.

Curiosity about Netherlands:
  • The traditional all-wooden Dutch klompen (clogs) have been officially accredited as safety shoes with the CE mark and can withstand almost any penetration, including sharp objects and/or concentrated acids. Today, Dutch clogs are primarily a beloved souvenir.


Best Wishes!
