Story
[edit]Swedish clogs became popular in the seventies and eighties for both sexes. The history behind the brand is that the founders grew up in a small village and were inspired by a woman named Anita who was the hottest mum in all of southern Sweden in the 1970’s. One summer day in 2006 Emy and Cilla found the old stock of the shoes she wore (300 pairs of red, white and black beautiful clogs from the 70’s) in the basement of an old clog factory in the neighboring village and brought them to Stockholm. Before long a public request made them design new clogs and the production started at the end of 2006.
