If there’s one piece of gear I absolutely hate, it’s shoe laces. They’re clumsy, time-consuming, and always come untied at the wrong moments. Shoe laces are the last thing I want to deal with while trying to finish a tempo run, haul in groceries, or traipse through a busy airport with lots of gear—which is why I’m in love with clogs.
I understand that shoe laces are a necessary evil if you want to do anything more than walk. But I will go to my deathbed loving slip-on shoes because they’re so easy and still hold feet adequately for all kinds of low-key adventuring.
During the summer, I live in sandals—Arizonas from Birkenstock for everyday and travel, and the classic Chaco Z/1s for the river, fishing, and basic hikes. When temps drop, I immediately transition to clogs.
Over the years, I’ve tested dozens of clogs for everything from working at home to a 10-hour plane ride. These four favorites are some of the best clogs you can buy.
