Modegeschiedenis
Founded in 1907 by August Sandgren in the Swedish village of Troentorp, the company began as a small-scale workshop. Originally known as Båstad Toffeln, it gained international recognition during the 1970s when clogs became a staple of global fashion. The brand is significant for its development of the orthopedic footbed, which influenced the evolution of ergonomic footwear. Its designs remain a reference point for the intersection of industrial workwear and traditional European folk costume.
