My Lotta From Stockholm clogs just arrived!
First impressions:
The leather is soft and beautiful. It’s navy but dark enough that it will be able to pass for black if I want it to.
I ordered “seconds” which means that I got a discount because there are cosmetic imperfections in this particular pair. I examined them all over and the only imperfections I can see are some very slight indentations in the wood that shouldn’t be there. The discount was definitely worth it, as the shoes are fully functional and look fine.
It’s going to take some getting used to before I can walk confidently in these - not because the heel is too high (it isn’t) but because wood obviously doesn’t bend along with your feet so walking in them feels really clompy at the moment. I’m sure I’ll get used to it after wearing them for a few days.
Overall I’m very pleased! These shoes seem high quality and I’m happy with the price I paid.
