About Us

Scandic Footwear was established in 2012 by Owner Designer and Master Clog Maker, Morten Andreasen — a long time engineer, whose career suddenly took a different path bringing back wonderful memories of his childhood in Denmark, and the joy he felt when his mother took him to the local village shop to purchase a pair of some of the finest handcrafted wooden clogs.

Do you remember when things seemed to last forever? When fashion made you feel beautiful? Well, at Scandic Footwear we do. We remember when our favorite things looked and felt better as they aged.

Morten’s engineering background, and instruction from a master clog maker, rekindled his passion and desire to share some classic clog designs of yesteryear, as well as stylish clogs with a modern appeal for women and men.

Scandic Footwear clogs are handcrafted in United States by skilled craftsmen, who put time and love into each pair. Our clogs are created with the finest quality natural materials so they feel as good as they look.

Every pair of handcrafted clogs is created to provide a natural progression of restoring a more natural gait with a forward and back rocking motion and help prevent supination and pronation in the feet by careful calculation and placement of customized arch and heel support.

Only the finest hand-selected materials available from around the world are used to create Scandic Footwear clogs. Our wood bottoms come from Sweden, while our leathers are from the USA. Scandic clogs are constructed using old world craftsmanship giving each pair their own distinct characteristics.

Leathers

Each superior quality leather comes in a variety of colors and grains which give the clogs a stylish, timeless, unique appeal, and makes the footwear long lasting and durable.

• Top grain natural leathers have a smooth finish giving them a polished look.
• Bison hide leathers is an extremely durable natural wrinkled grain leather lending itself to a more rugged appearance.
• Natural oil tan leather is treated with a coat of oil giving it a rich, unqiue appearance and quality that deepens in color with age.

All Scandic Footwear outsoles are made from natural wood, treated with linseed oil. The outsoles also have skid-resistant rubber soles, making them whisper quiet. Our outsoles come in two heel heights:

• 2 inch
• 2-3/4 inch

The rigid nature of the natural wood provides great back, leg and foot support and helps eliminate fatigue in these areas providing long lasting comfort. It naturally absorbs moisture keeping your feet cool and dry in summertime and warm and dry in wintertime. Natural wood has been found throughout the centuries to contain medicinal and magical properties.

We utilize different types of metal hardware such as buckles, staples, nailheads and rivets in the clog making process. Nailheads, or staples, are used to attach the leather to the wooden sole. To help eliminate nickel allergies, all rivets that come in contact with the skin are made of hypo-allergenic brass.
