My interest in plants as a component for shoes motivated
an investigation into clogs.
.. and this little note by Trefor tempted me to contact him at once:
Trefor and Rhiannon Owen:
We use traditional hand methods and techniques
for all our production from Dance Clogs to Leisure and Work clogs. The business was first established in Yorkshire,
making clogs initially as a hobby then going FULL TIME in 1978,
so it is possible I am the longest time served
maker amongst the current crop of makers. We live in Cricieth,
Gwynedd – just south of the Snowdon Massif,
in the Snowdonia National Park and on the edge of Cardigan Bay.
Why here? We can watch the dolphins
play in the sea in front of our house whilst
we laze in bed with a breakfast cup of tea, can you !!
