{"product_id":"floral-slip-resistant-work-clogs","title":"Women's Floral Slip Resistant Work Clogs","description":"\u003cp\u003eA pattern on a work shoe is not decoration, it is camouflage. The Women's Floral Slip Resistant Work Clogs hide the splashes, scuffs and gray marks that a plain shoe puts on display, which on a twelve hour shift is the difference between footwear that still looks presentable at hour ten and footwear that does not.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Print Hides Splashes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEverything that lands on a work shoe lands on the upper first. Coffee, betadine, cooking oil, a dropped tray, the black scuff from a bed frame or a cart wheel, all of it shows immediately on a solid color and is broken up by a busy one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat is worth more than it sounds when the shoe has to look clean in front of patients or customers rather than merely be clean. A print buys hours before the shoe needs attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChannels Under the Sole\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe outsole is shaped and patterned to move liquid away from the part of the tread touching the floor. That is what slip resistance is: not stickiness, but a route for the fluid to escape so rubber and floor can meet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe body is EVA foam, which is why the whole shoe weighs almost nothing, and a removable cushioned insole sits inside it. The heel is 1.25 inches over a 0.25 inch platform, so the actual drop from heel to toe is about an inch. The outsole tread is covered by US design patent D808624.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTwelve Hour Shifts\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNursing, veterinary work, dental practice, catering kitchens, salons and lab floors are where a washable lightweight clog earns its place, and it slips on and off without hands, which matters in a locker room in a hurry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis is not safety footwear.\u003c\/strong\u003e There is no reinforced toe cap and no puncture resistant midsole, so a workplace that specifies protective footwear needs a rated shoe rather than this one. Slip resistance and impact protection are different requirements and this clog answers only the first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhole Sizes Only\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSeven sizes are cut, US women's 6 through 12, in whole steps with no half sizes anywhere in the run and one fitting only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEVA does not stretch, so a half size cannot be split.\u003c\/strong\u003e Foam compresses under the foot but it does not lengthen or widen the way a leather upper eventually does, which means a 7.5 foot has to choose. Take the 8 and add the removable insole back in, or swap it for a thicker one, rather than squeezing into the 7 and hoping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWashing, Odor and Wear\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan these go in a washing machine?\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand washing is the safer route even though every surface is washable. Warm water, mild soap and a brush clean the tread, and the drum of a machine can deform a foam shoe against the hot metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I stop them smelling?\u003c\/strong\u003e Pull the insole out at the end of every shift and let both parts dry separately overnight. Foam holds moisture against itself when the insole stays in, and that is where the smell comes from rather than from the shoe itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill they stay comfortable after months of wear?\u003c\/strong\u003e The foam body slowly takes a set from the foot, which most people find improves the fit. The insole is the part that flattens first, and replacing it costs a fraction of replacing the shoe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre they warm enough for a cold floor?\u003c\/strong\u003e The upper is closed over the toe but the shell is thin and there is no lining, so a cold stockroom or an early morning walk in from the car calls for a proper sock. These are indoor shoes for a heated floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e{\"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\", \"@type\": \"FAQPage\", \"mainEntity\": [{\"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"Can slip resistant clogs go in a washing machine?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": {\"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"Hand washing is the safer route even though every surface is washable.
