Did people in ancient China wear clogs?

Clogs are traditional shoes in China, while Japanese learn from China.

Clogs were still common in the south until 1970s, and were later replaced by plastic slippers.

The famous ancient allusion is "Xie Anqi", which means that Xie An was playing chess when the news of the victory in the Battle of Feishui came, and he didn't bother at all, but when he returned to the back room after playing chess, he stumbled while walking, and all the teeth on his clogs were knocked out, and he didn't notice it.
