Japanese wooden clog slippers are not equal to high heels

Japanese wooden slippers, called in Japanese: Shimode? The shape is as shown in the picture, kind of like a small bench. [[Not the same as high heels.]]

The soles are usually wooden, and because they are elevated above the ground, you can walk without slipping even in [rain][snow].

The wood is usually of [kiri] or [cedar].

There are many kinds of wooden slippers in Japan

The Japanese name for a shoebox is a "senda" (下駄箱), but it is not just a senda that is used to put various kinds of shoes.

To minimize the clacking sound of the shoe when you walk, the soles of today's shoes are made of rubber instead of footless.
